Serious question: Do you say “in Guam” or “on Guam?”

Generally Americans* do not like to think of themselves as living in a country that can be characterized as a “hornet’s nest.”

I agree with this completely; in almost every context sports are a good way to find some sort of shared space for discussion. I have completely lost interest in the NFL but I keep up on standings and weekly scores so I have something to discuss with the dolts I work with.

trust the tap water or ice anywhere.

Literally nothing I can remember in the show indicates this is the case.

That’s not how language works. Chris Thompson can’t just start using a phrase with a well-established meaning to mean something else and expect readers to follow along. And no amount of wishing on your part will make it so.

All of this is true, but the fact still remains that “the F word” has a well-established meaning and you or I can’t just vote to change that. If this article said “Matt Joyce said the F word” no one reading it would understand that the author was not talking about the word “fuck.”

Sorry, but “F word” already refers to another ubiquitous and well-established swear word.

I say we try for a “shit-ass” revival. It has a certain drunk-uncle-in-the-80s sensibility I really enjoy.

I’m not at all homophobic and I legitimately fear that I’ll do this exact thing some day.

Donald, get back to work. You have a country to run.

Cruel, but fair.

I completely agree with you, but you are arguing against statistical averages with anecdotes.

Well, I guess we found the cop with the Napoleon complex.

DFW is a huge airport but it is very easy to navigate. The tram system there is really efficient and the new international wing is like a high-end mall in all the right ways.

I had a longish layover in LAX coming off a 24 hour day of flying and it was one of the worst airport experiences I have ever had. Wall-to-wall people, run-down facilities, terrible food, no place to charge a phone (or even sit in a chair).

Add LAX in there and I’m right behind you.
