Let me inform you- not supporting gay marriage does, in fact, make you a hateful bigot.

There. Now it's perfect!

If it's a crowded bathroom and there's a line, I like to shout "Gross! Someone their piss all over this seat!"

What are the chances they ever let an atheist or someone not hyper-religious but with a lot of knowledge (maybe a world religions professor or someone like that) on this show?

This. So. Hard. And now Mittens gets to play the victim.

I've heard the theory that his strategy is to be able to publicly claim "Why yes, I'm down with black people, I spoke at the NAACP" but for his PACs, etc. to use the video of him getting booed to stir up the white, conservative base. Romney and all of the other good, white folks are clearly being victimized by those…

Yeah, I got that, too- but as a large breaster, I might be sensitive!

And you know what? That's fine.

I actually think the right has achieved diabolical genius levels of spin with Obama. From the beginning, they've been the ones painting Obama as a super-lefty miracle worker, and then they point to the fact that he's not as proof of his "failure." It's totally made-up double-speak, but we've all followed the…

Yeah, I have the sinking suspicion that all of the higher level politicians are so sheltered from reality that they have no idea people out there in the world don't completely agree with them all. the. time.

Yes! Did you see the episode when it was Take you Daughter to Work Day? The guard's daughter jumped in with a huge NO TOUCHING and her daddy was sooooo proud!

Truth. New Yorkers are the nicest people I've ever met and will go out of their way to be helpful. They'll just be really fast about it.

Yes. Absolutely. And if I wasn't clear, I meant that it's a misconception that a lot of people have- that all Orthodox communities are the same, that they're all oppressive, etc, and that it's not right. Thanks for clarifying!

Word. And I totally agree that usually when something changes, everyone freaks out and when the dust settles, it's fine. But Kinja's been out awhile now. The trolls aren't stopping, and they aren't getting weeded out. It's not fine.

For real. I actually like the format of the new commenting system (I know, I know, no one else likes the tree structure, but I dig it)... but OMG, the trolls!

It seems like they're playing less into the "all Jews such at sports and most of them can barely lift a library book and their inhaler at the same time" trope and more falling into the stereotype that because they're Orthodox, supporting their daughter in a sport that is more traditionally male is a bigger deal than…

Would the show be called "Nic & Barney" or "Barney & Nic?"

Ahahahahaha!!! The mind reels... I really want this to be a TV show.

Sincerely, I don't get the anger directed at Barney Frank- he's probably not a perfect person (because no one is) but he's consistently fought the good fight for equal rights and against de-regulation. Unless you're asserting that everyone in the US government deserves equal retribution, regardless of their personal…

Huh. So my totally traditional in every way parents were doing it wrong when my dad left the house so my mom could watch every single inning of her beloved baseball team in peace...
