Metal nun with a death wish, wearing loose fitting clothing while operating machinery.

This was inevitable, because Hope Hicks is the ideal name for a communication director for the Trump regime.

It’s real, but it’s probably over-diagnosed because there’s pressure to prescribe ritalin as a performance enhancer. I’d wager that half of the students at my law school were on ritalin because they thought it would give them an edge on the exams.

So I would assume that when you’re flying in a hurricane, it’s not the windspeed that’s a problem, but the sudden changes in windspeed, yes? So, if you flew into a vortex with a nice orderly rotational velocity, you wouldn’t have any problem (except that you’re flight path would get rotated along with the storm). I…

So, which house do you think the sorting hat will place him in? You might think Slytherin because blond and royal, but he’s not a pure blood (mom is a commoner), so I’m gonna say Ravenclaw.

MIT, like Caltech, has a great hacking tradition. For example, hackers put a police car on the great dome in 1994:

Nerd.

I thought John 3:16 was the Catholic anti-aging formula.

Outdoor wear for the glamorous fascist.

That’s the “glamorous fascist on an outdoor excursion” look.

I think the movie would have been quite good but for the dreadful performance of Dane DeHaan. I thought Delevingne did a good acting job with what she was given (i.e. a ham sandwich for a co-lead). Your comparison to Christiansen/Portman is apt — Portman did well but couldn’t overcome a flawed script or flawed…

Don’t buy farmed salmon at any price.

Shkreli is not a good analogy — there’s no insurance or FDA approval skewing the free market, lack of theater tickets doesn’t cause death, etc. If you don’t sell at sky high prices, all the tickets get snatched up by resellers, who sell them at sky high prices.

Why doesn’t the venue keep raising ticket prices until the demand meets the supply? I don’t understand the thinking here. Obviously, scalpers do this, and then they pocket money that could’ve gone to the box office.

Sure they do — that’s the classic upper/downer/keep-it-up-er cocktail.

If we’re lucky, teetotaler Trump will soon start drinking the family brand heavily. That would keep him on the proper Nixonian trajectory towards drunken paranoia and impeachment.

This is how you deal with racist emblems:

This eagle was forced to perch next to some asshole. “Not my president.”

It goes like this — “I like the car but I’m not in such a damn hurry to have it. I’ll pocket some extra cash now and buy the same model in a year or two when Honda has flooded the market in response to the demand.”
