@McKinleyHighGeek: I do the exact same thing. If a guy can't spell or doesn't read fiction or incorrectly uses an apostrophe or listens to rap or only watches documentaries...

@MrMouse: Pretty much. Judging a woman's worth based on some predetermined set of culturally acceptable values without consideration for common sense or any real-world application.

@hortense: I generally refer to him as "Aragorn, son of Arathorn, heir to the Gondor throne," but that can be a mouthful. Not that I mind.

@LitiGrrl30: I have some nutmeg...

@KiddyKat: I, too, harbor this fear. It's why I exercise. So that I can outrun the zombies after the apocalypse.

I've never heard of a slow loris before, so I looked it up on Wikipedia. Apparently, they "only remove (at most) one limb from the branch at any given moment." Which I found hilarious.

@rd2uk: Word.

I used to steal signs. Not, like, stop signs, but signs announcing towns (I have the one for Climax, MI) and Hell (also MI). They were the best decoration for a dorm room ever. The Hell one pointed towards the bathroom.

@CloudsInMyCoffee: Between Grey's and House I feel fairly confident in my diagnostic ability. I now know, the answer is NEVER lupus.

Her fug reigns supreme.

@LaFemme: I watch House, which is pretty fantastic. Equal casting women vs. men, breaking stereotypical character portrayals left and right. And it has Omar, and that one dude from Harold and Kumar, and plenty of minority tertiary characters as patients. So yeah, House rocks. So do Grey's and Private Practice, but…

@Ailanthus-altissima: exactly - there are more and more minorities on television, but very few of them are recurring/main characters, and even fewer play a non-stereotypical individual.

@morninggloria: I know, right? Our taxes are insanely high, but our roads are crap, our schools are notoriously bad, our law enforcement is corrupt, our government is corrupt... oh, wait. That last one might explain everything.

Quin wants to raise Illinois income tax by 50%. FIFTY PERCENT! That's a lot of money coming out of my paycheck every month, especially considering our sales tax is already one of the highest in the nation.

That was incredibly enlightening...

@Kivrin: the man is hot. He has serious guns. He's pretty much the only reason I'm going to see Wolverine in theaters...

Well. At least they *washed* his hair before they put him on the cover.

@NerD!!!: Wait. Your governor outlawed MLK day? He outlawed a national holiday celebrating one of the most renowned men in American history and the end of one of the most controversial aspects of American history? Seriously? Wow. Just... wow.

@athenasadidas: I know, omg, I'm blushing so hard.

How are people still questioning Obama's citizenship? If he weren't a citizen, the government would seriously not have let him run for President, let alone actually swear in.
