Yikes! He should have at least corrected it to ‘elicit.’

Besides, you're not being an asshole.

“College men, from LSU, went in dumb, come out dumb too...”

I have to imagine that social commentators of the day were quite alarmed at all the gum chewing among the youths.

Jesus, that front wheel!

I almost never get mail without a postmark. Like, maybe never actually.

That’s not true, though. Nearly the entire coast goes for Democrats, even tiny towns. And there are plenty of blue areas all over the state. This is a weird state, and I'm totally baffled by Collins managing to win this shit.

For the same reason, I don't listen to politicians when they weigh in on video games, sports, culture, music, and so forth. Stick to politics, you assholes.

Voter suppression. Registration is suppression.

Here's another edge case in which Crocs are acceptable: deck shoes on a commercial fishing boat. That's why I bought my pair. (Not a lot of sex in that workplace, BTW).

I see the same thing. You’re positioned well between disciplines to do the translational work that narrow disciplinarians have so much trouble with. I see people with rare training and skills in that role (in my world, many are academic geographers).
