And yet, they see the behavior of its more vocally insane members, and do nothing to distance themselves. Silence is assent.

Nope. I am and was aware that everyone of them is a Scientologist.

I understand that the list of books I take out at the library and my debit card transactions aren't exactly private either, but I'd still take a very dim view of that information being disseminated to the public by the courts.

I once shared an elevator with Kevin Sorbo. The building had a lot of floors and he struck up a conversation with me so we talked for a few minutes. The man is absolutely delightful and has a wicked sense of humour. Why wouldn't someone want him in their film?

See Ontario, 2010. And no, the national igloo did not melt.

If there is a more appropriate metaphor for today's Russia than a giant Louis Vuitton trunk larger than Lenin's tomb sitting in the middle of Red Square, then I do not know of it.

Nah, you cook only 1/2 the stuffing in the bird for the first 2 hours. When you take the bird out to turn it over (you cook yours breast down first, right?) you take out the stuffing. Put the bird back in right side up for the last bit of cooking while you mix in the lovely turkey basted stuffing back in to the rest…

I concur that it wasn't a parody per se, but the Beasties have noted that much of the themes on Licensed to Ill were intended to be ironic, and that's obvious from their outlandish videos. Those were parodies of bro culture before bro culture even had a name. It's not like the Beasties were originally mega-misogynists…

Again, I feel compelled to say, in contrast to ThereAreManyLikeIt, that the vast, vast majority of those of us working for Palestinian enfranchisement are not anti-Jewish in any way, shape, or form. In fact, there are many Jews who are working for the same goal. And that remarks such as hers or his are incendiary, and…

You know, I work for Palestinian rights of enfranchisement and reparations, and stupid remarks like yours (to: ThereAreManyLikeItButThis) which are totally unrelated to the topic, do a disservice for those of us committed to human rights in the region. I, myself, was very moved by this documentary. She is no less…

Yeah, I don't really like the St. Patrick's Day celebrations either, as it tends to perpetuates some offensive and negative stereotypes about the Irish, such as alcoholism.

/wish there was a gluten-free Guinness though ;(

It's a power dynamic question, really. Other white people don't straight up not associate with people of Irish descent because they assume they have nothing in common...and the drinking stereotype really only comes up when people are drinking—often brought up by the person of Irish descent themselves.

I will also say…

I really don't want to steer off topic because this "party" is clearly bullshit and the organisers deserves some severe critical dissection.

Stop it. Science doesn't work on non-celiac gluten avoiders. It bounces off them like Richard Simmons running into Vince Wilfork, without the visual hilarity.

For about a thousand reasons, how his has heart not exploded yet?

Dude, I thought everyone knew that?

Denise approves.

I am thinking of Tom's. Oops. Ah, I guess I was right the first time. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/06/bus…
