Intelligence doesn't favor specific nations. To insinuate otherwise is bigoted. But there's a big difference between education and intelligence. The primary education system in the US is generally in bad shape, but there are plenty of intelligent kids in that system. Also, primary schools here are wildly…

I'm sorry, but could you use smaller words? I'm American, so I'm too stupid to read what you wrote.

Is your keyboard broken?

Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel - Make Me Smile. Duh.

Telegraph Road basically defines what a guitar solo is for me. But then, it's pretty difficult to choose the best from among all of Mark Knopfler's other work, since he's so consistently great.

Also the Icelanders, as already mentioned, as well as the bartender at One Eyed Jacks, and Blackie. He speaks with Blackie after Ben has left the room. There might be some holes in your theory.

Dives? You can just walk out in low tide and dig them up. Your friend is going about things all wrong.

I don't know if he's guilty of sexual harassment, but he's certainly guilty of being cheap. $150/day for a personal chef? That's pathetic.

Most of the exterior locations haven't changed all that much, though. In the original run, only the pilot was filmed in Washington, the rest of the series was filmed in California. So I don't really see how the shooting locations this time around are any different than they were before.

"Thanks, Obama!"

While this has nothing to do with pop culture, I love the AV Club's coverage of politics. Would it be possible for there to be a "Politics Club" like the Supper Club, so that those who have a problem with these kinds of articles can lose the excuse to bitch and moan about them? Clearly political articles bring in…

That's the worst name I ever heard.

It's strange that a character called the Doof Warrior somehow has a less stupid name than the person portraying him.

Keep fuckin' that chicken.

I suppose if you look hard enough for a conspiracy, you'll find it. Especially when it requires no evidence whatsoever.

The fee is insane, but it's legit and not uncommon for someone in her position. I'm sorry if you find that disappointing. One of the good things about how many times Clinton has been investigated is that all of this has been reviewed by people far more qualified than either of us. In all those investigations, the…

I would call it "being paid to give speeches." Money laundering means to take money that is earned illegally, and to funnel it through various transfers to hide its origins. What Clinton was paid wasn't illegal, and no effort was made to conceal its origins. That's pretty clearly not money laundering. if it is in…

Your comment seemed like something an asshole would say, so that's probably why they called you an asshole. Also, your reaction to comments is fucking petty, which doesn't help your case. It seems like you were just kidding, but in this day and age, it's hard to tell. In any case, the way you phrased your "attempt…

RE: question mark placement

AKA Vicodin or Lortab. I've never heard it referred to as Watson 853, although that does make it sound like some kind of superhero serum.
