Depends on what orbits they’re in.

Why not do away with tanker aircraft entirely? Instead, work on a modular platform that consists of a huge fuel bladder, a boom, and a small station for the operator to work. Then you can move the modular platform on and off different cargo craft as needed. When not needed for a fueling run, you could use the cargo…

I really like Terry but I’m really concerned that he, Will Forte, and Steve Buscemi are all in this awful, racist Ridiculous Six movie by Adam Sandler.

I think everyone, including the author, realizes the logical thing to do is to support the surviving parent and be happy for them.

Really? Lobster crackers are universal objects? Everybody’s got them in their houses?

I think if you look at the history of these laws, they are almost always written and enacted to discourage the congregation of homeless people, not for food health and safety reasons. http://www.nlchp.org/documents/No_S…

Middle class hypocrite MAD LIBS:

Because rhetoric about private versus government aid is a smoke screen for underlying loathing and resentment of the poor?

You likely couldn’t sue the judge in America either, because of judicial immunity. It might be that you could sue other people in the US.

“Saving a flag from being disrespected” aka theft. If someone owns a flag, they can do more or less whatever they want with it, even if it seems disrespectful.

Haven’t most presidents had some kind of military debacle on their hands, many of them much more catastrophic? Clinton and Black Hawk Down? Reagan and the Lebanon Barracks? GWB and Iraq?

Are O2 candles (like the ones that supply air to commercial airplane oxygen masks) the source for long-term oxygen supplies on subs? I never really thought about it. I assume they have a CO2 scrubber then?

No, but I do think that it’s a little bit odd to feature all these stories whose theme is “what dumbass doesn’t know what X is?” and then have the “hand-dipped” story in there where the worker’s response is exactly what the commenters are replying to stories about lobster crackers, cafe lattes, and sea cucumbers.

I’m sure it is. Life is full of annoyances, including occasionally being faced with things that are too high. It’s not like the airlines put overhead compartments so high just to be dicks. If they dropped overhead bins down another foot, you couldn’t safely or quickly exit the row. Your choices are: using a…

Because this article would be too short if it just said “ask someone taller.” Seriously, I have a hard time believing that more than one person (you might hit one jerk who ignores you) would decline to help you with a bag, if nothing else because it makes the plane load faster and/or the people sitting in the aisle…

I actually do all those things. I didn’t think my comment was critical. I didn’t say she was stupid or overprotective or a bad parent. I’m a parent, too. That sounds like the kind of first-child logic new parents engage in. It’s totally normal and understandable. Most parents figure out later how to reasonably balance…

The likelihood of something bad happening to your infant in the 30 seconds that it takes to walk your cart to the cart return is infinitesimally small.

I didn’t exclude your brother from the wedding, I just didn’t send him an invitation, then told him he wasn’t welcome and if he showed up I’d be very disappointed.

So, if what you say is true and the single defining characteristic that matters is whether the world perceives you as a “baby making machine,” shouldn’t MichFest admit passing trans women and exclude (or, loudly discourage and clearly not welcome) very butch women, or women with PCOS-induced facial hair? Because…

But it’s not a cultural fair organized specifically around talking about what it was like to be raised female from infancy to age 8. It’s a cultural fair organized around and limited exclusively by femaleness. It is open to women of all ages, all races, all professional backgrounds, all religions, all nationalities,…
