This is an actual page in a book written by a 70 year old career politician:

I’ve found that these people will grasp onto absolutely anything to discredit people arguing with them. There’s no chance he’s actually offended by her language, he’s just trying to downplay his embarrassment by implying that the youth are rude/entitled/etc.

If it’s either of those, then mea culpa. Although if she is faking I would hope Jaime speaks up about she hasn’t started showing in months.

I guess that’s why all the Holocaust memorials in Germany feature large statues of Hitler, then.

Except now they’ve made Cersei pregnant, so now the passage of time has (or should have, but won’t) an obvious sign. If some of the characters here appear in KL later and she’s not showing, then you know they’ve well and truly given up on any sense of realistic time and space.

I’ll use this space to soapbox: if you’re buying scotch, try to buy scotch with an age expression (Laphroaig 10, Lagavulin 16, etc). The glut of scotches without an age expression is 100% capitalizing on the whisky craze going on, and they are almost always inferior to the scotches that have age expressions (the…

This is so variable based on the show that this whole thing seems kind of pointless. A S5 episode of Game of Thrones would be completely incomprehensible if I had never seen another episode. On the other hand, you can skip the first two seasons of Breaking Bad and miss basically nothing important. Fight me.

They really need to fire their people. They are getting terrible advice.

This could have been a really good article but this is the wrong subject because this movie is pretty much autobiographical.

Apologies for the long post, but I have Opinions about s4+ GoT and this seems a good a place as any.

Everything about Ramsay was a complete misfire. He was far too much of a Mary Sue (but in villain form) and way too much of his narrative was torturing characters with only marginal plot importance (the sheer amount of screen time he received torturing Theon was completely baffling). But the worst was how stupid…

I’m not making an argument for or against the 2nd amendment. I’m arguing against terrible analogies. There can’t be any real debate or conversation when someone uses a wildly disingenuous comparison.

The majority of Californians rely on motor vehicles to travel to their jobs/home/etc, which of course relies on large gas tanks. Cars have wide utility, whereas guns do not. If every gun in California vanished immediately, things would be roughly the same as they are now. If every car in California vanished…

That’s a bullshit counterargument and you know it.

I was almost positive this show ended a few years ago. Did a show like this end a few years ago?

Look, everyone, what I assume is a grown man talking about “SJWs.” Get over yourself.

The problem with this line of thinking is you start having to decide which groups are and are not allowed to speak, which means human beings have to make these distinctions. With Trump and his merry band of bigots in power, I don’t want the government to have the ability to unilaterally decide which groups are allowed…

I’m torn. Obviously you’d hope that no one gets arrested, especially by a rent-a-goon with an authority fetish, but on the other hand, if the SRO actually had arrested her, her family could have owned the school, the principal, and the SRO twice over.

People aren’t “anti-Russian.” I don’t think anyone is seething with hatred against normal Russian citizens. People are anti-Russia’s leadership, perhaps, or anti-Russian interference into our electoral process. Russians aren’t the subject of hate crimes in this country these days, as far as I can tell.
