I don’t think they are too religious. They certainly aren’t Quiverfull because:

Careful - someone’s liable to tell you you’re not a “true” Star Wars fan because you’re not viscerally angry that it wasn’t the movie you had in your head.

I can’t be the only idiot to mix Tequila Rose with milk, right?

It really is amazing how competitive Little League is now. My kid’s league has 7-year old travel teams (maybe even 6-year old, not sure). And while his current team (he’s 9) has some very good players, his coach told us that he’s not a yeller, that his goal is to have fun and be better at the end of the season than…

NO. the definitive ranking is:

You’re right and I probably lacked nuance. What I should have said what that most farmers are already maximizing the resources they have available and if they’ve spent their capital on a particular type of farming equipment, they can’t just liquidate it all and switch to a different type of farming operation without…

My son is now 12. We’ve been watching AT together since it began and it’s been great. Watching the finale with him will be bittersweet.

I hate that I’m even kind of disagreeing with you, because in principle, I not only completely agree with what you’re saying but I am vigorously appreciating the sarcasm with which you delivered it.

Sure, he might not be quite as bad as the governors of any of the neighboring states, but Rauner is still a fuckface. And honestly, his unbeliveably douchey face and general air of entitled wealth might make him worse than Indiana’s Holcomb or Iowa’s Reynolds, I don’t know quite enough to say.

You know I don’t truly hate this, it’s a tacky novelty custom car but in a novel situation. As an unusual way to get to get your boards to the beach it’s quite fun.

yea but the demon is faster in the quarter mile no contest...u cant beat 800hp plus slicks make it faster and with some cheap mods even quicker...why would u buy a slower car, basically a beetle with a new suspension and motor. tbh i dnot trust the complex german turbos anyway...american muscle is where its at. u need…

They went one exit east to the nearest equipment rental and that is probably all they had. A call to one of any of the local tow companies would have got it out.

I get you, but I guess where I’m coming from is that I think face-to-face people should always take precedent over phone peeps. AKA, if we are texting and someone approaches me (the waiter, my boss at work, friend I’m meeting, etc) I’m going to drop the phone immediately. If the convo is time-sensitive I might say,…

It makes me sad to say it but Jim Bakker and Jimmy Swaggart are still conning the rubes. These swindlers will get out early and continue their grift with the added bonus of “cheap grace”.

There are literally dozens of guys like that

It’s sweeping through the midwest like Mongol horde.

“demanding everyone do shots with him”

We’re on the MO/KS border and Freddy’s have been moving east from Kansas for the last couple of years now and I’m glad they are. Everyone deserves that sweet-sweet fry sauce. My kiddos go crazy over that place.

There's actually a Steak 'n' Shake in NYC now, on Broadway just by the Ed Sullivan/David Letterman Theatre. Their menu is streamlined to mainly focus on the burgers and shakes, but it's still pretty awesome.
