Understood. Thanks for clarification.

I think some people would argue that 1972 was worse.

Except, that that was not the way the committee had said they were going to pick. Nagasu was a surprise, who was not expected to win. They changed the rules after the fact. Also, they had already spent LOTS of money in promo materials, featuring Wagner. In short, I'm not against the rules, but they should be made…

Please, PLEASE don't move here.

Hell, that's kid stuff, man. He just wasn't angry ENOUGH.

It seems that you're assuming that this driver took NO care in this delivery. And, with all the hypotheticals you lay out, you're actually catastrophizing unnecessarily. I now the USPS insures packages for $100, for free, and I'm assuming that FedEx and UPS are similar. When you pay a fee for a service, that…

Why, exactly, is the driver in the wrong for that delivery technique? It did not, and couldn't have done, any damage. How is what he did any different from him laying it gently on a doily? I'll bet that there is NO way one could discern the difference from the condition of the contents. I think the assholes (and I…

You think that driver is "FedEx"? He's a wage slave like most of us. But, you're absolutely right in that he should not have been fired. The assholes who reported him for tossing their package full of FABRICS are truly symptoms of what's wrong with America. Jeebus.

The Beasties' letter was not a threat, but an inquiry—and GoldieBlox DID strike first—and second. First, they stole a song, then they sued. IMO, their case against the Beasties is an attempt to sway public favor from those whose self-righteousness blinds them to fairness.

Also, the lyrics to GIRLS were a parody, to…

I was quoting from THE BREAKFAST CLUB. But, yeah, California works, too!

See, also: Lewis Carroll, Charles Dickens, Theodore Geisel...

I've laid lotsa times. You wouldn't know her, she's from Canada.

Howdy, neighbor! You may be wondering why there is frozen egg all over your windows—well, I just wanted to send a message to you that just 'cause everybody is out there, expressing opinions and such, you really shouldn't. I'm hoping you step up and ration your words this lifetime, and not allow yourself to continue…

You assume that the RR driver felt confident that the bikers would have left him alone if he pulled over. If a biker group like this had surrounded me, and tried to bring me to a stop with me not knowing why? I would FLOOR it. But I'd never get off at 178th street—that's a parking lot. WSH to HH to CCP to Sprain…

I'd like to take this time to point out that the Jets are from New Jersey.

To your first point, agreed. I DID move the goalpost, in the same way servicemen and women are represented by the armed forces. Honor is THEIR word, not mine. I'm merely pointing out the hypocrisy of those asked-for expectations. And, over the past couple of years, it's clear that THAT body is rotting from the…

The questions you are positing are not the questions I did. Non-consensual sex is rape. If the alleged victim did not consent, it's rape. It's not up to the victim to define rape—that's already been done. It's up to the alleged victim and alleged perp to state what they know, and for the court to decide. Sexual…

That's true. But, WHY can't she remember? In any case, it seems that honor is a virtue ignored by too many of our servicemen.

Really only two questions are ever required:
