And respectfully to you, none of that is factual. The First Amendment doesn't make an exception for speech that's "in violation of human rights," whatever that means. Americans are free to say any kind of vile things they want about other individuals and groups, hence (for example) publications put out by neo-Nazi…

How do we know that? There is nothing in this video that indicates where or when it was recorded. Or am I missing something obvious?

I'm sure I'll be flayed for writing this, but here are my honest feelings about this video:

In one of the several restaurants where I worked as a waiter, we were taught that the single worst thing you can do is to leave a dish on the table that the customer has already told you has displeased him in some way. It doesn't matter the reason or who's at fault: He's not happy with his steak, take the fucking…

He was enjoying a Scooby snack!

I actually like that third, beaded cream-colored look quite a bit, ridiculous gloves and shoes notwithstanding. It flatters her outrageous proportions to the extreme, yet it's somehow also rich-looking and age-appropriate.

Shirley Temple didn't sing "I Want a Hippo For Christmas." It was sung by the unfortunately named Gayla Peevey (who, I admit, sounds a lot like Temple).

Ugh, how can anyone watch this show? It's just people talking over one another. Say what you want about Maher; he keeps control of his panel on "Real Time," and his show is entertaining. This is just a mess.

"While Romney may seem like the most reasonable inmate in the haunted house insane asylum that is the current Republican field..."

Good luck! You'll definitely feel fresher, because you won't have layers of gunk built up under your arms.

Perhaps, but most deodorant/antiperspirant products contain alcohol (along with aluminum, which is far worse), so the point is moot.

I assume you're joking, but just in case you're not: Alcohol can cause cancer from DRINKING too much of it. I highly doubt there's ever been a single case of cancer caused by people's RUBBING IT ON THEIR SKIN. (And we're talking about two different kinds of alcohol here, anyway.)

FYI: Years ago, in a Fire Island share, I learned the most invaluable hygiene lesson of all time: Don't use deodorant or antiperspirant; use rubbing alcohol and cotton balls instead. If you do this every day when you're fresh out of the shower, you will never stink. Moreover, you won't be poisoning yourself with all…

This Vanity Fair article changed everything I thought I knew... and felt... about Internet predators. A must-read: [www.vanityfair.com]

Best line of her rant: "I'm not a crazy person — I'm a very well-educated person!"

That's $1.5 billion spread across 300 million people. One supposes Mr. Ailes has made more than a proportionate share of calls. Hence, the newsworthiness of the article.

And I see that completely. My point was, it's hard to imagine any salesperson in NYC going up to two black customers and saying, "I don't want 'your kind' hanging out in the store." I can't see how that salesperson could ever keep his job.

You didn't read what I actually wrote; you just reacted. Congratulations: You're a prototypical Gawker commenter.

If this had happened in the South, I'd have no trouble believing it. When I managed a Macy's men's department in Atlanta in the early 90s, my white salespeople were often openly hostile to black customers. When I took them to task over it, they inevitably repeated that wonderful racist defense: "I don't have a problem…

Dude, if your head is too big for your foreskin, there's a very simple solution: Get circumcised. Even if you're anti-circumcision in priniple, any doctor will tell you there are cases where the procedure is medically advantageous or even necessary, particularly if your foreskin causes you pain or discomfort.
