They seem to be able to multitask in bringing up the travel ban when there’s a terrorist attack.

Maybe I’m reading it wrong, but from the description it sounds like the “bonding” parental leave is in addition to recovery leave that only a birth mother receives. That recovery-based leave covers the difference you mention. In this case, the excuse for giving the man less “bonding” leave is because he’s not the…

This will probably happen. If he has the biggest hurricanes, there are two scenarios:

Not even wearing the same color, so even if it was at a distance where he couldn’t quite see their faces, he loses that excuse.

OK, that makes, like, a tiny bit of sense. But it’s so, so dumb. It barely makes sense (was the dress designed by a first grader? why would the “good job” sticker be on the dress? the dress is plaid...if its design was a child’s drawing, then maybe the sticker could make sense), and it looks ugly and ridiculous.

I really think the hyphenated name thing should be the way to go. When the child grows up and gets married, leading to a new dilemma of what their name and their kids’ names should be, then if it’s a boy he can keep the father’s half of the name to combine with the spouse’s name, and if it’s a girl she can keep the…

That picture up there needs a caption because I don’t know which one he is.

I did dance (ballet, jazz, tap, modern) from preschool through high school. One of the things my dance teacher was very adamant about was that stretching was something we always did under our OWN power. She said that only we can feel how far is far enough, and letting someone else dictate how far you stretch is just…

Exactly. He said it would be so good, and it would be so easy. Those among us who weren’t idiots knew he had no actual plan and was just spouting empty promises, but enough people somehow believed him. Now here he is and, as with everything, he will never own up to the fact that HE promised things he never had any…

What a sacrifice, to pay so much in taxes that you’re only worth $500 million. What kind of life can you make with just $500 million?

Yeah, I told them they needed hats, too, but I understand how common it is to have TV/movie characters without hats so they’re more recognizable and their faces more visible. It’s like in TV shows when the SWAT team moves in, helmets on, except for the one or two named characters who, in spite of the fact that they’re…

It was my first thought, too! Without the Wisconsin accent, though, just a “Where are your hats???”

Deeper than the Mariana Trench...so deep it goes all the way to hell. I can’t wait for the day he falls in it.

I started to read your statement as “the only non-Costco part of my body...” and thought, “Yeah, that sounds about right.” Given how much of the food I eat comes from Costco, my body is probably mostly composed of Costco-sourced organic matter + water + O2.

She could have been ever so slightly more believable if she had argued they were the same thing because they both represent “pride.” Like, some people have convinced themselves that the Confederate flag is just a symbol of southern pride—even though that completely ignores the whole history behind the flag in that the…

Right? And if I don’t have kids, does that mean I can say that health insurance shouldn’t cover people’s kids? Let those kids get their own jobs if they want health insurance!

“Maybe it’s good for the country that the president is in a good mood in the morning.”

What would the punishment have been if he had been killing another person other than himself? If he had told her of his plans to kill...let’s say their acquaintance “Sam,” then told her he was going to back out of it, and she said “No, you should go through with this.” If he had then gone and killed “Sam,” she would…

It’s gross that he has to specify that they were beautiful. Is it only tragic if the girls were beautiful? If he were talking about 15-year-old boys, would he have included the detail that they were handsome? Maybe, but it seems less likely.

I had mixed feelings about the Sand Snakes. Because I wanted them to be awesome, but the show turned them into terrible people and boring characters. It irked me that we saw 5 semi-important, badass female characters who have been around for a while taken down by 1 semi-important but much newer male character. The…
