He looks dumpy and his ass looks like a burlap sack filled with snakes.

When given a binary choice, yes, the centrist Democrat had more supporters within the Democratic Party among the small percentage of the population that participated in the primary season than the left of centre independent who consistently caucused with the Democrats did. This does not necessarily reflect upon the…

I’m not sure I understand your second point, but your first point is the story of the rise of conservatism since Reagan. Trump is the natural embodiment of what they claimed to value, while paying lip service to, say, an Eisenhower conservative.

No one is arguing anything other than releasing co2 that was sequestered over millions of years, in the span of hundreds via burning hydrocarbons, accelerates the frequency severity and duration of climate change.

Ugh, my mom loved that show. She was convinced that she could get on the show and talk with her beloved dead grandmother. I told her she was just as likely to get in touch with her dead asshole father and get a beyond-the-grave rant about Koreans and women nowadays.

I have a close friend who worked on Long Island Medium in editing and described it as the most soul crushing experience ever. He also thought that the woman was a piece of human trash for conning people. I imagine this is quite the same.

Ok I keep hearing everyone quoting Lochte as saying he thought they’d get in trouble if they called police. I don’t understand the logic here can someone explain? Their olympics were over and they’re all old enough to drink, so what exactly would they get in trouble for?
