We visited family in Rockaway regularly when I was a kid. To this day my mom always calls corn dogs Pronto Pups. She's 71 and probably didn't encounter anything called a corn dog until she was an adult.

What a great theory! If only the history of the last 70 years of evangelism, televangelists, megachurches, and prosperity preaching backed that up. There are preachers - including the one under discussion - becoming full-on wealthy on the backs of their congregations while laughing at the government that doesn’t make…

Yes, I think they should be entitled to royalties in perpetuity - well, for the length of the copyright term(s) (which are too long but that’s another issue) - for the characters writers create. His desire for an appropriate piece of the pie isn’t my issue here. His need to shit on the ideas of others is my issue,…

Every time I see Tony Hawk in the various media he seems genuinely to be having a good time. I like that in a celebrity.

Sly is mad that he’s no longer one of the biggest box office stars. This man has such a monstrous ego that he went to the writer of the book on which “Cobra” was [loosely] based, asking to replace her name with his.

If Starfox/Eros has his comic book superpower of making people sexually attracted to him, it's only going to be worse for women. It pretty much makes the character a serial rapist.

Belief in god may be dipping but belief in money keeps on rising.

You should probably be aware that in the comics Starfox has a superpower that causes people to be abnormally sexually attracted to him. He is, essentially, a serial rapist (one writer made it clear that he's a sociopath). Marvel had better be very careful with this character.

Bibimbap was probably left off the list so that people could bring it up in the comments.

If Bob Odenkirk was 10 years younger, I think he would be the #1 choice.

Despite being a militant atheist, I believe proper members of the clergy should be paid for their work. Of course, I’m talking about clergy who are on-call pretty much 24/7/365 to serve the members of their church and community, and who would consider any salary beyond $100,000/year (enough to reasonably support…

I occasionally (for obvious reasons) ask for a side of mayo in which to dip french fries and I've definitely noticed how much thicker it is than what I spoon out of a jar of Best Foods at home. Now I know why.

He's likely a "prosperity" preacher, assuring his congregants that the more they give the more they'll get. It's truly the ultimate scam since religions are not only tax exempt but are virtually exempt from any government intervention because of the political complications of going after churches.

“It’s my prerogative to take as much money from my congregation as they’re willing to give and lavishly spend it on myself even as my community struggles to supply their families adequate housing and food. If they want money, they should go start their own churches.”

Nope. Unless there are some truly glaring flaws making the show bad enough to be unwatchable, creators need to trust themselves and ignore Internet bullshit. Do you really think an audience-consensus version of Godfather 2 would have been better than what we got?

Yuck. The creators should create and absolutely ignore the million different opinions from morons on the Internet.

They all know exactly who she is and I’d rate her chances at staying in that department at no more than 20%. Her “colleagues” will almost certainly force her out.

While the difference in treatment between Ukrainians and Haitians is obviously skin color, I think the main difference in treatment between Cubans and Haitians is that the US Government supported the repressive government(s) escaped by the latter. We have a long history of supporting monsters (e.g., the Duvaliers) as…

Specifically, guys who fuck indiscriminately without condoms.

It's more like saying "maybe I'll try to feed my kids after I've made my Porsche payment."
