Hint: part of the art of conversation is to actually make clear what the fuck it is you're talking about, so that the other parties understand your position and can react to it accordingly. Playing the "guess what I'm talking about - WRONG!" game is just wasting everyone's time.

Perhaps you can explain why the GOP left the personal info of 198 million voters on an unsecured cloud server this year but continues to claim that it was Hillary who put the U.S. at risk.

For the record, it was well established that Reagan was always haunted by the film The Day the Earth Stood Still, and worried openly about how human civilization would be perceived by space aliens if the nuclear arms race continued to escalate.

This gave me flashbacks to Baghdad Bob.

He needs Trump News because there are about six hours a week when not even Fox News is completely on his side, and he needs something to watch during those slots.

And they were right. Trump would never start a nuclear war. It's totally irrational to believe that. Trump is guaranteed to trigger a nuclear war, which of course is completely different.

You forget that they're all in Bizzaroworld. He looks at a photo like the one above and says, "Wow! When was that taken? I'm really telling somebody what's what!"

Much simpler to ask NASA to lasso in the Sweet Meteor of Death.

A missile from Korea targeting a population center in the U.S. would be sent over the Arctic, not over the Pacific.

I'm late to the party, so I'm sorry if this has been asked already, but: will Kinja include some copy editors? Please?

Funny they never made him sign any NDAs.

But I read about it in Newsweek!

I've met this sort of dickweed. I was working at a music festival years ago, and while setting up our display table of CDs (and rushing to finish before the crowds arrived) the guy working a coffee stand comes over to talk to us. Hurricane Katrina had hit New Orleans just a day or two earlier, and this guy was braggi

How big does a bubble have to be before it's no longer considered a bubble?

"No one I knew enjoyed it when they saw it."

I remember reading at the time about a nationwide backlash against people who didn't like the film. Up to and including accusations thrown about that people who didn't like Titanic didn't have any sympathy for all the immigrants in steerage who died. I hope you never had to deal with any of that.

I can't argue with that.

My friends and I are partly responsible for that. We all went to see Lost in Space on opening night. My friends assured me over and over that it was Not Going To Be Campy and would instead be an awesome space adventure.

A close friend of mine who now works in the film industry had a conversation with me along these lines back at the time. His favorite movie that year was actually As Good As It Gets, but had to admit that Titanic deserved Best Picture since it was shooting for the Moon.
