Depends. There's a lot a gaps in its coverage. So you may get something like, untreated Lyme disease, and have to completely foot the bill for treatment. (This happened to a colleague.) Same with certain transplants and procedures. So in those cases, it is not better than nothing. They are also pretty harsh about…

The freelancer's union healthcare is shit.

And I always confuse the thetans with the pentecostals.

But Christians don't claim midiochlorians are responsible for the presence of Christianity. I think the English Charity Commission is just calling bullshit on the prequels.

If you look at the 20 + team of writers and producers for each song, its hard to see the album as any kind of autobiographic statement. Personally, I don't think it needs to be. But the whole "I'm keeping it real" vibe that permeates hip hop culture, plus the blurring of reality vs promotion via instagram and twitter…

He'll do it after his presidency, just to still be on TV. Actually, so will Kanye.

Yes. My parents supported my liberalism even though they 100% did not agree with it. I was always touched that they could put their personal misgivings aside and get me a gift that I liked. And the course of history will not be changed by one more book purchase.

If you want to see a painfully outdated asian stereotype, look for 90's era standup of Cho doing an impression of her mom.

No. if you are actually counting the number, it's objective. Using said number to assess social or artistic value is subjective.

Hits are subjective criteria. NWA had no hits thirty years ago, but I'd read a MC Ren autobiography.

He got my parent to listen to the Roots, something I could never do.

Not being a jerk or anything, but what was he wrong about? Just curious.

It depends on the expectation. For some, comedy should be apolitical - just take our minds off real life for a minute, entertain us and make us laugh. No politics, unless maybe if its an impression. For some, the expectation of a comedian is to be a social satirist and deliver harsh realities in a palatable format.…

Same with my wife. And while I've known several female Rush fans, the ratios are highly uneven. The bathrooms lines at concerts tell you all you need to know.

You left out the part where the teacher, after a romantic dinner with lots of camera shots of flirting and eye gazing, brings the guy home, pours them both a glass of wine, lights candles, seductively feeds him candy, slips into a beautifully alluring nightgown, and then opens her bathroom door so a giant squid can…

Eh. Anything after the season with Poochy gets a pass.

So, all snark aside, why the Tidal hate? Jay Z and Beyonce have both had plenty of corporate overpriced tie ins in the past. Why is the only backlash I've ever seen against them directed at their streaming service?

That was on TDS. When stewart went on O'Reily Factor, he was a lot harsher.

That was why TDS was so great. Congressman X won't come back? Ok, we'll just get Paul Rudd.

That's the best layman's description I've heard of Trump's actual wealth. Most of what he makes now is from licensing his name. I think most people just don't get that.
