This aspect of consumer rights in the USA really baffles me. Why is the price tag on a car (or a snack or an insurance policy or whatever) not the same as what the customer actually has to pay? Price opacity is bad for consumers, bad for the better businesses, and only provides an advantage for the bad businesses.

Kate Winslet is hot as hell and I for one am always happy anytime she wants to whip ‘em out.

My late beloved cockapoo Chimpy didn’t want to swim at all until I waded out in the water with a ball and a cheerful disposition during his second summer. He jumped in and thus started a lifelong love of the water. He took a dip in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the Gulf of Mexico, the Mississippi River and Lake…

Some money got laundered.  

Look, you read a headline about a teenage girl shoving a bear, you interpreted that headline as describing a wildly more dangerous story than it was, you were disappointed and downplayed it with a rather odd interpretation, and now you’re dug in because people are being snarky to you on the Internet. 

Most people have never encountered a bear but know better than to be the keyboard expert saying this was not so dangerous. Especially when zoo and park experts quoted in the coverage are like please never do this under any circumstances.

What a ridiculous person. The headline says shove, the video shows her literally shoving the bear. No exaggeration there, just a factual description. The bear is at least 2 times her size even if it is “relatively smaller” than other bears. There is no reason to assume that a retreating bear wouldn’t maul the fuck out…

Exactly, thank you. My brain has a much less polite way of articulating this than yours.

They have to be trolling right? it’s ridiculous the lengths some people will go to to diminish something they themselves aren’t capable of

They weren’t one of my preferred junk cakes, but they tasted much better in the 70s than they do now, total chemical taste. I can remember the feeling of a Devil Dog stuck to the roof of my mouth. When I was eating them they were made with actual sugar. HFCS ruined many things.

THIS!!! My God, I can’t believe keyboard ‘experts’ who don’t encounter bears very often are dismissing this, I love her, what she did was insane and sooo fierce, she is a feckin queen!

Your three cats are probably hoping you do. I’m under no illusion that my cat wouldn’t make a few meals of me were I to die alone, but under its watch.

I freaked out at Captain EO too, but because it was in 3D. I think I was 6 when I saw it. The only thing that lightened my mood was the little girls in the row in front of my screaming “it’s Freddy Krueger!”

I would die for my 3 cats so I totally get her. 

When I went to Disney World as a kid I was freaked out by everything. The volcano and jungle cruise were particularly frightening. 

My brother and I were terrified of ‘the Watcher in the Woods’. It’s a horror movie for kids where basically nothing happens for an hour and a half except scary music and occasional floating lights.

Kids are indeed stupid.

I’ve found that anti-chinese fervor tends to drop reading comprehension drastically.

Agreed, this Murica nothing to see here
