/shudder. I can think of three things wrong with that name. My son used to love trains as a boy, so that was his favorite place (they had a model train inside the one by us). I can still taste the grease and cardboard.

We did voluntarily elect Pence as our Governor. An intellectual mass suicide, if you will. Although that was a few years ago, and I'd be surprised if such a smokin' property sat on the market for that long.

Wow, that's great. Put up a monument of THAT in place of Jackson.

Joey Kocur is still with us.

One (of many) thing which continues to astonish me about Trump is what a shitty con-man he is.

They got the dog beats!

I should send you the order from our Court striking all of Dow's defenses in a case after it repeatedly lied to the Court about the documents it could turn over in our case, and refused to make a good faith effort to comply with the Court's repeated orders on the subject.

Are you implying I'm biased? Fair enough. But to set the record straight, my "cut" is nothing, as I am not a partner in my firm. I make a nice salary, but I'm not remotely rich. I could easily make more money working for a defense firm representing insurance companies and corporations.

Most likely many of these jurors were making these statements for the express purpose of getting of the jury. Usually they just go with "religious convictions" (which doesn't really work, Judges have heard that BS 3 trillion times), but in this case, I suspect many of them were intentionally trying to get "for cause"

Let's leave ICP out of this. I'm pretty sure even they think these guys are dumb-ass lunatics.

Betsy Devos takes of her shoes to count if those halves add up. Gives up, looks at scary pictures of bears instead.

I represent Plaintiffs in asbestos litigation. I felt the same way you do before I started doing this. But then I started seeing the internal memos saying things like "if you have enjoyed a good life while working with asbestos products why not die from it." (actual quote from Bendix brakes director of purchasing

I said it back when Pence tried to sneakily outlaw gay marriage in Indiana, and I'll say it again now. When corporations have the moral high ground on you, you are one immoral piece of shit.

I went to Notre Dame law. In 1998 I wrote a piece for our journal raising the issue of whether AI could ever be a "person" under the Constitution (I think I was a bit ahead of my time with that one!). My professor's entire feedback? "You can't define who is a person. Only God can do that."

The enemy cannot push a button, if you disable his hand!

A couple of years ago I had a hankering to buy a Norton dollar. Holy shit did I underestimate their rarity and demand.

That's a perfect way to put it. Early Simpsons is brilliant. But it's still disappointing to hear that it could have been something even better. Because I refuse to believe that incorporating more viewpoints into that early brilliance would have in any way diminished it.

I thought they got soooo close to something sublime with the rain. The big storm leads to big emotions, leading to all of the dramatic chases in the rain bumping into each other was almost a perfect send-up of that trope. They didn't quite get there at the conclusion, but there was a great parody underlying that

I didn't come close to recognizing Brodfard as a returning character until I put First Day on as background noise yesterday, and realized he was Henry's rival for full professor. You'd think at least the name would have stuck.

Whoa. I just ordered this off of Amazon, not having any idea it was a new release. It just arrived a couple hours ago, so it freaked me the fuck out to see it on the front page of the AV Club too.
