I think you should be less pissed about the video than about the fact that the entry point for being middle class is now $100k a year.

This was always my one-step answer to how rich or poor you are:
What percentage of your income could you lose without affecting your standard of living?

I'm not talking "switching from brand-name to store-brand cereal" or "buy a car every three years instead of two", but major things like needing to take out loans or

Here's the thing about edgy humor: It's hard. I'm saying this as a guy who worked in comedy clubs all over the northeast.

Shields were also used to hit your opponent with- Either a buckler punch to the face or throw all your weight behind a larger shield. If you could knock them down and pin their swordarm under your shield, you could just stab them and lean into it.

The claymore could be over 6 feet long, but it was almost never used in hand-to-hand.

Yes. You just need to know the frequency (analogue) or have a matching brand of receiver tuned to the right channel (digital). In either case, you can buy the hardware for a couple hundred bucks at any music store.

My kids were stillborn and we can't have any more. We have a dog now. I love my dog like you wouldn't believe. My sisters breed like Catholic rabbits, and keep losing kids to social services.

As I understand it, in Irish Gaelic, you don't say "I am sad", you say "a sadness has come upon me".

Plus, the single biggest feature- That you can import directly to the desktop version of GarageBand, or Logic. That was the entire reason I even got an iPhone.

Depends- Some women, especially on specific types of birth control, can get a one day period every 2-3 months. Others get it for 10 days out of 25, heavy enough to go through three or four times the supplies you'd expect.

It's also not as rare as you'd think for women with certain conditions- Hormonal problems or

I would assume because it's alien and scary.

On a purely intellectual level, I understand the whole process. To be honest, after the number of hours I've spent in fertility clinics and OB/GYN offices trying to learn what was going wrong, I'd wager I have a better understanding than most. As a Pagan, I follow female

Absolutely. A real woman looks like whatever she looks like. What's worse is that all the "real women have curves" thing does is try to substitute one standard of beauty for another, while still maintaining that beauty is a woman's most important characteristic.
I mean, I wouldn't consider Madeleine Albright to meet

It's ironic that one of the bigger sources of objectification also tells us that no matter what you look like- Fat, thin, giant, midget, pale, elderly, handicapped, tattooed, DDD cup, flat-chested- There are loads of people out there who find you attractive enough that pay to see you naked.

This is why I voted for him twice. Did I think he'd be a good president? Hell no. But I did think he'd make major streamlining changes to procedures and economic policies that would have a positive effect for decades to come. Short term sacrifice, long term benefit.

Harley is the choice for bikers here because it's an all-American brand. About the only other bike they respect is a vintage Indian or a US made custom build (which usually uses a Harley engine).

For those who would rather be putting solar on roofs, GREAT- go do that too. Nobody's telling you not to. Just because we're building electric cars doesn't mean we stop working on more efficient gas engines.

I'm guessing because it was the theme song to Armageddon.

Okay, I'm going to put this in the simplest, clearest way I can:

It's actually one of the seldom-talked-about open secrets of the entertainment industry that any format wars (VHS/Beta, HD-DVD/BluRay) are very likely to end in favor of whatever option the porn industry adopts.
