But, that wasn’t your initial argument. Your argument is that they shouldn’t seize the pension because it punishes the wrong party, not because there isn’t sufficient grounds upon which to seize it. If your argument is the latter, then it would apply no matter who is receiving it or whom its proposed seizure would…

Don’t forget that it was also in response to a story about a man turning a blind eye to child molestation!

What about a coke dealer who buys a big house for his family to live in from his drug money? Should his/her assets not be seized upon conviction because it punishes his family? JoePa earned his pension by working at the university. He did not live up to his duties in not only a morally reprehensible way, but in one…

Yeah, that was my presumption - basically just an issue of practicality. ...But, fuck - getting piss thrown at you? I should hope that the person who did that was at least arrested and charged. ...That was going to be my other comment - if you can’t fence off the area (understandable), then I’d think the next best…

Innocent question from somebody who doesn’t at all follow cycling: Why are fans allowed to do this? ...I guess the course is so long that you can’t reasonably fence anything off to protect the riders from these whackjobs, so maybe there really isn’t much you can do about it. But, it certainly seems odd to an outsider.

It was actually Roger Clemens that “misremembered,” but that just kind of makes your comment more meta.

Trademarking a hashtag seems kind of strange too. ...I mean, people can patent a gene, so all is kinda out there for the taking, but the whole point of hashtags is for many people to use them, right?

This is tragic and unexpected - I can’t understand why the Cubs would have traded for Josh Hamilton.

I nominate “the right way” as well.

Agreed. I got the impression that Bobby didn’t like the show as well. I think that’s the most obvious way interpret the extremely backhanded “praise” communicated in that sentence. Real Sports is probably the best sports-related programming on television, Gumbel’s pretentiousness and all. It’s also sports content that…

Fair point. I’m not sure whether they’d go after Cali, Zona or Texas first, but with an divided US, they’d have prime opportunity to reclaim some shit we originally stole from them.

Without the protection of the US, wouldn’t Mexico just sneak up from behind like Bobby the Brain with a folding chair, whack ‘em, and take their land back?

No error scored on the play.

Who says his only goal is to win an NBA title? Maybe he thinks it will be the most fun to play in GS. Maybe he wants to live in that area.

I may be mistaken as well, but I came her expecting to vote for the BJ as well. Among these choices, it’s between dizzy bat and man on fire.

I guess it depends on how you approach somebody, but I’m overall against going up to somebody famous in a situation other than like an explicit meet and greet, etc. and asking to take a pic, getting an autograph, or trying to strike up a convo. Call me crazy, but I happen to think that the best way to appreciate that…

But, what if we have her a third set of teeth?

If you count hounding somebody while they are doing their job, so they can write their name on a piece a piece of paper as “meeting” them...

To a degree you can control HOW MUCH attention you get, however to control the nature of that attention is much more difficult - a lesson that you appear to be learning right now.
