A friend of mine had to get arthroscopic surgery because of a football knee injury, as a junior in high school. Not the same as your tragedy, obviously, but he was never as active again.

It’s worse than just Trump. I can’t help but think QAnon every time I see “save the kids/children” as this has been the way they’ve been expanding their numbers, using uncontroversial phrases to draw the gullible into believing in elite satanic pedophile cabals.

And this wasn't even a high school teacher. The text indicates this teacher was pushing this ignorance onto middle school kids. It's comforting that at least some of the kids weren't having it, but at that age others may accept the nonsense as truth.

Joe Millionaire was the first “reality” show I watched all the way through. I found the whole thing hilarious and engaging precisely because it was openly fake. The BTS meanness of how they cast the ladies would have ruined it for me had I known of it, though. Part of the enjoyment was that I assumed they’d been fully…

Totally. Ballots should be provided even to people on death row.

Yes, indeed. It was often like the Marvel staff were making the cases for No Prizes. "See, fans? This is why it had to happen the way it did."

Silvestri's run was hampered by the fact that for a lot of it he and Dan Green (inker) were putting out two issues a month. Just because you can do a thing doesn't mean you should do a thing.

A star isn’t enough. Jim was on his game during that run. Still, I can’t recommend the trade paperback/digital versions enough. The printing of the original floppies was horrendous because Marvel was really cutting corners to save cash. 

It’s Identity Crisis that did that truly terrible, exploitative thing. Infinite Crisis has its problems but Dr. Light doing a rape ain’t one.

Wow. Umm, I'm pretty sure you can just go with the vasectomy. It...yeah...it should be fine.

Comparing how people you met briefly on a trip to a foreign country to how you behave with close friends/family at home is comparing apple pie to a strand of pearls. Pretending that this gives you any insight as to how Americans act with the people in their lives - which varies widely, as it does anywhere - is…

Even asking a student to explain their hairstyle seems wildly inappropriate to me. Unless their hair has turned into hissing, biting snakes or has foul language shaved into it, leave the kids' hairstyles between them and their parents.

True that.

Probably no more than one, but all would be very quick to tell you how they vote for Obama - twice - before Trump came along and had some "interesting ideas."

It even ignores Hickman’s Avengers World storyline. Still, it’s wise to remember that Hickman also destroyed the multiverse in Secret Wars, so continuity has been up for grabs ever since.

I love Hickman. He’s a full-on master of huge ideas. Still, of course there will be a reset at some point, if for no other reason than future writers will want/need something more grounded from which to launch their own ideas. It’s the ebb and flow that keeps Marvel characters both relatable and fresh.

To be fair to Five Guys, their standard burgers are doubles with no restrictions on toppings apart from what’s available in the kitchen. Also, their french fry generosity means one order can probably satisfy 3-4 people...as long as none of them have a peanut allergy.

Bad take. They employed both Bobby Moynihan and Ron Funches. They are therefore heroes...filthy, infectious heroes.

Sounds about right. I think it’s worth mentioning price every time Shake Shack comes up, especially when making a[n implied] comparison to other fast food chains. For a one-person splurge it’s not that big a deal, but start feeding multiple people (and adding sides and drinks) and Shake Shack can become quite…

Sounds great. How many times the price of a Popeye's chicken sandwich?
