Counting reclaiming my times.

Agreed, this is better than my sleeping elixir (vodka).

Well all of those are either in the north or east or BOTH. So...there!

He sounds like the product of an educational system that revises textbooks to reflect that dinosaurs were on Noah’s ark.

I think he might just be an idiot. There are a lot of derogatory slurs for women out there but “northeasterner” is a new one; it’s more likely that he just doesn’t know what the fuck he’s talking about.

“Northeast” - You know, where all the people who want to abort your gun rights while ripping away your manhood live.

I doubt he’s one to let facts get in the way of good ol’ fashioned Texas-style misogyny. Or that might just be the way Texas public schools teach geography. Evolution is equally plausible as creationism, Alaska is equally plausible as east or west of Texas...

Yeah dude. I am aware of the fact that there are different fabrics. But I have never been in an office building that wasn’t freezing in the summer, because the menfolk need to keep cool in their suits.

Agreed. My dad had to buy five whole suits upon moving to work in DC at the Pentagon (he needs to wear one every day, thankfully mom is great at finding deals and he got them all for a good price for the quality he needed). That’s just too much, especially with how hot it’s been. We need fashionable menswear that’s…

I did a presentation on the pay gap at my company last year and not even two slides into my presentation, I had a man interrupt and ask where I got all my data. It’s from the Department of Labor asshole, any more questions?

Seriously. The Nazis weren’t “terrorists”—they were the actual government. And if you replaced every “Islamic” with “Jewish” in his little Facebook screed, you’d pretty much have *exactly* the official policy and rhetoric that led to Auschwitz in the first place.

I have an Iranian friend who is here on a student visa. Not only is he one of the nicest guys I know, but he’s one of the smartest. He won a national engineering contest in Iran, and is currently about to finish his 2ND PhD. But it’s looking like he wont be able to bring his wife and kid over from Iran now, so he’s…

I agree about the shitty way we portray all the types of jobs out there. My company has a ‘charity team’ and we’re working with middle and high school teachers so that they can come in and sit with various people throughout the day so that they can tell kids not only about all kinds of jobs, BUT we’re working with…

One of the most important things you learn as a liberal arts major is WRITING! And so many people are so bad at it so it’s such a strong skill needed for almost every job.

Sigh. This idiotstick probably has no concept of the hierarchy of needs and so my awesome postcard campaign idea is probably doomed from the get-go.

This is so true. Before I sold my soul to corporate America I worked in a poor,inner-ring suburban school district outside Detroit where like 60% of our kids came from the city (along with their much needed funding). At the high school level, you had kids who were realists. They knew being an astronaut or a pro…

It’s odd (though certainly in keeping with Carson generally) that he ascribes this to “disadvantaged” neighborhoods when you could walk into an “advantaged” neighborhood and ask kids what they want to be when they grow up and get more or less the same answers. Astronaut. Fireman. Doctor. Scientist. I’m missing one.
