I’ve never read it, but I assume there are several chapters devoted to the subject. Along with entire sections adressing the moral perils of homosexuality, hip hop, and zippers. It’s not like these people would just make shit up to justify their bigotry.

I wonder if he refuses to call students named Jennifer “Jen” or William “Bill”. Because it’s the same fucking thing in my mind. 

Waaaaaaaaaaaaa I was fired for being a gargantuan asshole to someone I’m supposed to educate and enrich, whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. 

If only all NFL owners had the moral fortitude to just not sign a headhunting sociopath, but let’s be real here. Not like he did something dangerous or distracting like, I dunno, refusing to stand for the national anthem.

No, the punishment doesn’t fit the crime. The punishment fits because it’s fitting both this crime and all the other incredibly dangerous similar crimes he’s gone out of his way to commit on the field over the past decade. You get one DUI, you get a year in jail. If it’s your sixth one, the judge isn’t going to be…

When reached for comment, Jon Gruden was too red in the face to respond.

This will be Burfict’s 14th suspension in his NFL career, and his third for an illegal hit. After his ejection, the Raiders captain ran off the field blowing kisses to the booing crowd.

He’s 13 years younger than me but I could pass for his little sister any day.

I knew there was going to be a perfect German word and was legitimately asking. Thank you!

I read it more as he was embarrassed by the way it was presented as that. But I could be wrong. 

Maybe he means he only likes anatomically modern humans. No habilis or erectus, please, and Denisovans and Neanderthals are iffy.

Sure, but when I try to help a cyclist like this, they're all "share the road!" and "get back on the pavement!"

My husband and I went on a honeymoon cruise, and one night the entertainment was a Newlywed Game style audience participation show where they picked a newlywed couple from the audience, a couple that had been married the longest, and a couple in between to participate as contestants. We were the newlywed couple. In…

Trying to go into academia

Calling yourself a hero is like giving yourself a nickname: it makes you look pathetic.

I suspect it’s all McConnell. Read interviews with the guy: he rules the GOP Senators with an iron fist, and he believes in the long game - seating judicial appointments at all levels, controlling presidential appointments, and building a Senate majority that’s too big to bypass (even if it takes stuff like…

Even money says he refuses to sign it because “if the government is shut down, the government can’t investigate him.”
