In the mean ol', good ol' days of Gawker gone by, you'd have never graduated from pink without proper capitalization. The lack there of usually seems to communicate that the typer's time is far to precious to spend on such nominal conveniences for the reader.

Cry me a river. That's not a keying, or the truck was keyed by someone with serious OCD problems.

Gonna style a '57 Chevy out of teak? This Old Mobile Home? How much do you think your net worth has declined as a result of making a guest appearance on Deadspin?

When you're a kid in school, there's scant difference between whether someone is officially promoting a school's theoretical policies and whether someone is just going through the motions based on previous examples, i.e. makes little difference as to whether it's policy or just accepted culture. While an "official"…

Probably a better plan that the thrust of the article which is to be as intolerant as others as the author perceives others' intolerance of herself.

I tend to think all kids feel alienated and as if they were the other and the outsider at some point in life. I was alienated and singled out for being the new kid at eight schools in twelve years, the kid who wore glasses, the fat kid, the kid who liked to read, and the Methodist preacher's kid. I also doubt…

Oops. My bad for slotting you into atheism. (Though I could hem and haw around whether you were referring to ethic Judaism or religious Judaism.) Doesn't change the thrust of the reply though. You're uncomfortable with this, they're uncomfortable with that. How will you ever manage to live together in the same…

What about the poor, poor people made uncomfortable by your lack of comfort with the basic Christmas story? Should they have the same option to be protected from your no-religion religious beliefs?

Some people can get hung up on anything I suppose, but cannabis is not physically addictive.

On one hand, children should not be toking up, drinking down, huffing fumes or other related activities. Trying to grow up and become a person is challenging enough. People in their youth, the proverbial formative years, can be developmentally derailed by a vast range of influences and events.

Try searching for #trapwire on Twitter. You'll find more story than you can shake a stick at.

You seem to have trouble separating the means from the ends. If the issue were murder, would it matter, insofar as the legality of murder goes, whether the victim was brained with a blunt object or disintegrated by death ray?

Key part: Decision was not about how the surveillance was done, but more about the geographical range and conceptual scope of the surveillance. The point of the tiny constable is to explicitly say that the methods of eavesdropping don't change the legality or what's required to properly respect the rights of citizens.

Separating the means from the goals seems a pretty good way to examine motives and intent without getting bogged down in incidental trivia. The Fourth Amendment doesn't seem that hard to understand unless you're an over zealous law enforcement type.

Um, no. Just because the technological methods have changed dramatically in the last 200 years doesn't mean the concepts of illegal state surveillance have changed that much.

I hear AJ's hiring Tosh as Gawker's Customer Relations Consultant.

There is a significant difference between being caught and confessing. She did the latter.

Depends on whether they proselytize by persuasion or duress.
