Everyone has privilege. All privilege is relative. If you were born and raised in this country, you already have tangible privilege over people who weren't.

I don't think Californians are that stylist when it comes to fashion design; however, we literally lead the rest of the nation in style in almost every other design field. Those cars may be built in Detroit and those computers built in China, but they are designed in CA. The only thing else I could think of that…

You can't smoke in most hotel rooms in California.

Only the first 4 times. After that, there is something else going on.

Freaks and Geeks and MSCL were before my time and I don't have Netflix so I can't watch them, but compared to Dawson's Creek, Glee, Boston Public, 90210, Gossip Girl, and the countless other teenage dramas, I think FNL has one of the most realistic and compelling depictions of high school. I wonder how much of it is…

Most of the FNL fans I know are college-educated, young, liberal, and urban professionals who have little to no interest in football.

Reading some of the blogs, I think it's more women and men calling her fat. She's nothing of the sort. She just has very large breast and a wide torso (think of a male swimmer's body) that looks larger when viewed from certain angles.

My birthday falls in the middle of autumn and I started at a Montessori pre-school, which is why I was placed into kindergarten earlier than most. I never noticed the age gap, at least not until people started turning 18 and 21 before me, because there were always several people younger than me in my class year. (I…

Really, I was still 13 when I entered 9th Grade (H.S.)

Keep in mind he's speaking towards a specific audience and thus gendered language is employed. Domestic Violence and rape are often crimes that disportionately affect women and are committed by men. I get the argument that this message shouldn't apply to one gender or that the usage of "real man" is problematic, but…

I think they're waiting for the heat to die down before they vote no. They know everybody has their eyes on them since the meeting agendas were leaked last week.

The Catholic Church does not run de-gaying camps. The few parishes that offer these services usually refer their parishioners to organizations affiliated with Evangelical Churches. I'm sure there are exceptions in a few places, but they're not suppose to offer conversion therapy because the church's policy is that it…

Yea, I knew it was age and race discrimination, but I though the race claim was b.s. since I've never seen an In-n-Out without a diverse staff.

I think they're being sued for age discrimination. All In-n-Out employees have a very specific look: clean cut, very young, fit, and cheery, at least that's how it is in Southern California.

Exactly. Many of the top 50 schools pretty much require you to have close to 4.0 and plenty of quality E.Cs just to be admitted. All one needs is a 2.0-2.5 to graduate many of these schools.

The first time we see her she is nearly entombed in LV luggage.

Well it depends. 2-4% is the national avg. but in LDS troops, those numbers skyrocket towards 60-90%. My troop was made up of mostly working class Hispanic kids and we had around 10% of our guys make it to eagle. Almost every single one waited to their 18 birthday (the deadline) unlike the Asian troop where some of…

It's actually around 2%

BSA doesn't endorse any specific religion. There are regilious metals for Buddhist, Sikhs, Muslims, and Hindus.

Except we're talking about performance vehicles that you can take on the track or on the open road vs. work vehicles that are being marketed to consumers of whom 90% will never come close to needing the towing capability.
