Yeah, and the irony is that they are way more obsessed with sex than the average adult - they talk about it constantly.  Contrast that with someone who treats it as a simple private matter (i.e. watch some porn, have a wank, get on with your life. Maybe meet somebody on a Saturday night and have some fun.)

....being disfellowshipped for consensual sex between adults is a pretty common occurrence so they fact that they’d use such a light touch with accused child rapists is beyond the pale.

Prince was an active member at the time of his death.

Yeah, I like the idea of a tech-heavy production that draws on the talents of art and shop classes. They can pour a lot of energy into it beyond the acting and the orchestra pit and kids might actually learn cool stuff.

At the end of the day nothing else matters but your personal feelings. You got burned. Will it make you feel like a sucker to go back, even if everything is fine? What do you think the odds are that you’ll get burned that badly again? Those are really all the important aspects here, obviously “punishing” the…

I actually think that a degree from USC would have been an appropriate move for a person like Olivia Jade. She’s already got a budding career as an online influencer, and so going to a state school is out of the question, would be “off brand.” And it would be reasonable for her parents to think that she could get…

I don’t know how you can really enjoy this one that much if you do the sport. For one thing, the handler is not actually allowed to touch the dog - that’s cheating. Grabbing her and pushing her toward an obstacle is just not how you do it, even in training. In general it’s bad etiquette to stay on the course if your…

But, I fear that I’ll become a typical Massachusetts hockey dad and beat the crap out of the owner of a dog that may-or-may-not be slightly better than my dog in the parking lot after the competition.

At least you gotta give him credit for explicitly spelling out and owning his terribly illogical argument, here:

I don’t think it’s crazy to say that Islam has a disproportionate amount of bad actors. Saudi Arabia...Salman Rushdie...

So...they have to veto right? Or are they going to kick this to the Supreme Court so someone else can make the decision for them?

The problem is that no normal human would use the expression “play it tough” the way he is using it.  To him it seems to mean “pretend to be tough.”

Now I’m really thinking this might be end up being known as a scandal that majorly undermined the perception of our society as a meritocracy.

Anything with the highest Tomatometer ranking is not the greatest anything of all time, it’s among the most likable of that thing of all time.

Atheists perplex me, you can’t prove there isn’t a god any more than you can prove there is a god, but such a significant number of atheists use their unfounded certainty...

You could keep that equipment in every major subway station, as they are public places where millions of people pass through and lots of random shit happens.

I mean, this is funny, but she’s just going to be replaced by another, equally horrible dean.

TO BE FAIR (since you must always be fair to homophobes when issues of campus fast food are at stake) the students voted in favor of Chick-Fil-A, but then the university decided to ignore it.

I really don’t understand why people want to go on about MJ’s profligacy when he was alive. Everybody knows about that.
