That (Bobby’s name) should have been a BIG WARNING! ‘DANGER, DANGER, STEPHIE! THERE BE F*CKERY A FOOT IN THIS POST.’ But, sadly, no...

I KNOW! I was all psyched, thinking I was going to get some legit Helen Mirren goodness, and I got THIS? Not cool.

But he doesn’t think he’s a failure - he’s fleeced the country as a war profiteer, and he’s fine with that.

Consider the complete self-centeredness of Dick Cheney and his utter lack of empathy. He was completely non-plussed about his multiple bypasses, and the family of the donor. I shouldn’t be surprised at this — war criminals and torture-promoters aren’t known for their empathy — but I was.

Yep - and he has tax-payer funded health care. Yes, it’s outrageous that a man who has enjoyed many millions of dollars of taxpayer-funded medical care doesn’t give a damn about the uninsured in our society, but that’s Dick Cheney.

Evil incarnate - I tell you. Seriously. The man makes my skin crawl.

I have to say, though, I snickered when I heard the descriptions of Cheney and Rummy in Papa Bush’s book.

Completely agree with you - 100%. Why he hasn’t been tried for war crimes, or as a war profiteer, I’ll never know. The man is evil incarnate.

My thought was, ‘She’s already consenting to sex with this person, regardless of gender, so what’s the problem?’ But now I see the problem, and it’s a big one. (pardon the pun)

When the issue of consent (in this instance) was explained to me (THANK YOU!), I began to understand the problem.

Ah! I get it now! That makes sense, too! THANK YOU!

I’m prone to motion sickness and vertigo due to the meds I take. It can strike anywhere, to anyone, at any time. Motion sickness can be immediate, and doesn’t discriminate.

Dramamine is the only thing that worked for me - the scopolamine patches got me SO SICK. Maybe the patches were too strong (for me)? When I travel,I joke that I’m on Dramamine from the moment I get through TSA screening until I’m back in the cab coming home.

I feel you. 100%. Other pretzels/crackers don’t do for my tum what Rold Gold does - they must be imbued with some magical power

Me too. Ginger ale does wonders for my sick tummy while travelling. It helps that I enjoy it (occasionally) while not travelling, so I don’t develop the ‘ginger ale = sick’ association. Pretzels or crackers help, too - chips are too oily.

I’m really puzzled on this - she thought she was having sex with a guy, and it turns out that she was with a woman with (presumably) a strap-on? I’m sure someone will help me unpuzzle this...

I hear you - wait until you get to know the person before the blindfolds, manacles and restraints come out. (That is, if you’re into that sort of thing. If not, that’s cool, too.)

Seriously. A bomb like that cannot be dropped on us, and then not addressed. (LOL)

<sarcasm> But you don’t understand! You’re supposed to be married, to a man, and only have procreative sex! Plus, you should want every child that God wants to send you, because they’re gifts! You’re supposed to stay home and your husband is supposed to be the breadwinner, silly! </sarcasm>

My cats do this, too - I’ll go and check their food dish and find a toy mousie in with the kibble.
