Ha ... I just checked and there is a Burger King literally across the street from my apartment complex. I guess it just never registered because I never thought I’d have any reason to eat there (or my observational skills just suck, but let’s go with the first one).

He was fabulous as Gordon. I wish they’d used him more.

I had no idea BK had a veggie burger option! I have no idea where the nearest franchise is, but I need to find one and try it.

I’m a relatively new vegetarian, and I’m still figuring all these things out. It never would have occurred to me to ask about fries being cooked in animal fat, though I have learned to always ask about soup (OTOH, I have not yet managed to make myself give up gummy bears).

Really good! He had spinal surgery to remove a bulging disc right before Christmas, and after a month of recovery he’s basically back to his old self. He’s still on limited exercise (short walks, no running, etc.) for a few more weeks, but he’s off crate rest as of last Monday, and he’s super happy about it.

Have you seen this? It makes me happy when skies are gray.

I was home with a sick pup, so I feel your pain.

Most of them aren’t even really pro-life when it comes to abortion; they’re pro-punishing dirty sluts for being dirty sluts. If they truly gave a shit about the “baby,” they wouldn’t think abortion was acceptable in the case of rape or incest.

He’s also wrong on the basic facts. It’s not remotely true that Moses doesn’t speak to Woody Allen. On the contrary, he didn’t start calling his sister a liar until after he and Woody had reunited.

I think it basically comes down to this thought process: “Racism is bad, and only bad people are racist. I am not a bad person, so it’s not possible for anything I say or think to be racist.”

It’s hard to detect sarcasm when it’s impossible to say something crazier than the shit the true believers actually say. On several occasions I’ve starred Kinja comments that I thought were brilliant satire only to learn they were 100% serious.

There was huge, screaming backlash about the 2016 Ghostbusters from the moment it was announced, based entirely on the fact that the actors were women. When the first trailer came out, there was a coordinated — and successful — effort by fanboys to make it the lowest rated trailer on IMDB.

If your plates are clean, stacked from largest at the bottom to smallest at the top, and you have all your silverware/trash grouped on top or the side then I was happy about it.

I made the mistake of googling at-home euthanasia services awhile back. For the next two months all the ads in my browser were about pet death.

I just spent a truly insane amount of money, time and stress getting spinal surgery for my dog and going through the rehab process. He’s only 5 and he’s fairly healthy beyond the now-repaired bulging disc, so it’s definitely not a matter of prolonging his life when I shouldn’t, but the whole thing made me worry even…

There’s a Seinfeld episode where Elaine gives a new boyfriend an ultimatum — either me or your cats. He chooses the cats, and it’s supposed to be this huge, humiliating thing for Elaine that the cats were more important to him than she was. And all I could think was, “Clearly no one involved with this show is a pet…

The Week had a great article on the subject: The Myth of the Male Bumbler

Did the original account say anything about “Grace” being white? I don’t remember that, and if it didn’t, Flanagan’s assumption is more than a little telling.

Several years ago, the head of New York’s Special Victims Unit told the NYT that his department had a foolproof way of determining if alleged victims are lying — if they asked for a female detective or a rape victim’s advocate, he and his squad 100% knew that they made it up to ruin some poor man’s life.

That argument falls down when you consider how many supposedly “pro-life” people excuse abortion in the case of rape and incest. Absolutely no one argues that it should be OK to kill a child who was conceived by rape or incest — that’s evil in all cases. But whether or not abortion is evil baby murder or a perfectly…
