Fun fact: the 1939 version of Wizard of Oz (you know, the one everyone has seen) was a remake. There were a couple of prior attempts at adapting L. Frank Baum’s story, but the Judy Garland version was the first one that was any good.

Since men are doing all the raping, why not have a curfew for men instead?

Isn’t this pretty much the same argument as the trolls who pop up on articles about discriminatory businesses and say “what’s the big deal? They’re doing you a favor! You don’t want to give your money to a bigot, right?” And then everyone has to explain the civil rights movement to them.

I bet they wouldn’t bat an eye over a diaper ad either.

I’m with PNC, and my account has a minimum balance of like $200, but it’s waived if I have direct deposit of more than $500 a month. They also have account types that have no minimum balance, but you don’t get interest or ATM fee reimbursement with those.

You are familiar with the concept of bodily autonomy, and the US’s history with forced sterilization of minorities right?

Many years ago I worked at the concession stand of the local baseball stadium, and it was not uncommon to get mildly burned while cleaning the popcorn machine. You had to stick your hand in the still-hot drum and scrape the burned gunk out every once in a while, and if you were not perfectly steady your forearm would

I hear that nail polish remover is good for dissolving super glue. Don’t use it near your eyes, obviously, but it should be perfect for unsticking your fingers.

I kind of go through cycles with how much weird stuff is in my purse; random things will accumulate in there, until I decide that it’s time to clean out my purse, and take out everything but my wallet, keys, and phone. So how well I would do at this game depends on where in the cycle I am.

You could have the funeral pyre and then cremate what’s left later.

The zoo in my city has a potbelly pig in their petting zoo named Kevin Bacon.

Blizzard has some of the best customer service of any video game company I’ve seen. I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone say anything but nice things about the CS team, and I spend a lot of time on WoW forums.

You forgot the soft pretzels. When my parents went to the ball game on 4th of July, I literally made them bring me a pretzel home from the game. I would have gone with them and eaten it there, but I had to work.

The ballpark in my city has 2 dollar beers on thursday, and all the college kids come to the game to drink and socialize. It’s basically like a big outdoor bar with a ball game going in the background.

We could do that just by giving away free birth control and abortions to anyone who wanted them.

There is no way to enforce that kind of rule without stomping all over people’s rights to bodily autonomy, and if you think it would be enforced fairly you are delusional.

Is it just me, or is that photo of Courtney Cox less “plastic surgery disaster” and more “unflattering angle and lighting”? Because, duh, nobody looks good when their eyes are so deep in shadow that you can hardly even see them.

I do like seaweed, but it’s not something that’s usually eaten by itself, is it? Is sushi good for you? I could totally live off of sushi (if I could afford it).

So what, exactly, are we supposed to eat? Is there any food on the planet that is all-around good for you, and doesn’t taste like crap?

I sort of did this once, but with chili powder popcorn and self-loving. It sucked.
