How hard is this to comprehend? Newspapers report on events that actually happen. They have photographers take pictures at those events. Then they put those pictures in the newspaper. There is nothing inherently “gendered” or “sexist” in those actions. If you want to be mad at somebody be mad at the DNC or Hillary for…

I love how you’re reflexively disregarding any opinion that comes from a man simply because the point was made by a man. Such a great choice and certainly bound to win over lots of people to your way of thinking.

Yup I’m a dude. Strong sleuthing work there, detective. So you’re able to deduce that I’m a man but you’re not able to reconcile the fact that newspaper editors don’t want to illustrate a story about a major event with a photo that wasn’t taken at the event? Yes USA Today managed to work it into their front page but…

If you can find other instances where a front-page, above-the-fold story about an event was illustrated with a photo not taken at the event, then I might concede that this was some sort subtle bias at play. Go back and look at the coverage for every other convention and I’m guessing you’ll find that the photos used to…

Newspapers generally illustrate stories about an event with photos taken at that event. And Hillary Clinton, as anti-climactic as it might seem from a photo-journalistic point of view, was NOT AT THE EVENT! No conspiracy. No trying to keep women in their place. No making it about men. You went looking for an excuse to…

He seems like a very sincere, positive guy who wants to do good in the world and I just hope one day he finds a religion that doesn’t make him feel bad about who he really is.

If you are tipping the sole proprietor for simply doing his job at the price he quoted you, then you are dumb. Or you really do just want to play the big shot. Which is also dumb. You know what else says “I think you did a great job, and thanks”? Saying ““I think you did a great job, and thanks”.

No. No. No. No. One of the main appeals of Uber to me is the fact that I don’t have to do mental gymnastics about what a “fair” tip is. If my fare is $5, is a $1 tip “enough” (it’s 20% after all) or do I have to round it up to $2 to make it seem like I’m not being cheap by tipping “just” a dollar? What about the Uber…

It was the state of Georgia that funded the new Georgia Dome by renewing the hotel/motel tax that pays for it. Yes the city of Atlanta will be paying for some (relatively) minor infrastructure but without. True the mayor was a major cheerleader for the effort but there was significant resistance within the council and…

It’s nice to be noticed.

a treasure as always

I’ll assume that your faulty math and/or understanding or basic US geography is part of the joke.

The article is great and makes excellent points in an accessible manner. But what I really love (LOVE!) are the comments! So much self-fulfilling Take.

I agree with you. Far too many socialists in the country these days expecting there to be some sort of safety net. I mean check out what some pinko, leftist Bernie Bro said last year:

That is my plan also. Only for some reason, Georgia stopped allowing you to have both an ID card AND a DL...I cannot for the life of me imagine why but it’s not like you can argue with the DMV. So I “lost” my DL and then got a new one. My “lost” one is now in my laptop bag in a hideaway pocket.

To everyone who is suggesting that you carry your passport with you as “backup”...all due respect but that is a terrible idea. There is a not insignificant chance that you will lose/misplace/have stolen your passport. It’s a much bigger deal to replace your passport than it it is a drivers license. Not only the…

You know how I know that beardo is a m’ladying likely date rapist? TWO buttons unbuttoned.

It’s a judgment call about the location and your own expectations. My little one visited a couple of early happy hours in a bjorn to make an appearance and be shown off to friends who might not otherwise have gotten a chance to see him. We showed up early before things got rowdy, had a drink or two and then bounced to…
