Well, he’s right. I’ve never studied medicine so I’m unlikely to screw up a heart transplant.

Yeah, Trump has really normalized deviancy. If it weren’t for him, people like Pence, Kasich, Cruz, and most of the other candidates this year would be viewed as horrifying. But compared to Trump...

“Gonna play at the Y - M - C - um... R!”

He’d rather dump buses full of children into the ocean?

Yes, innocent until proven guilty is for a court of law, I as an onlooker have a much lower threshold. And yes, when people throw that phrase around as you noted, it always reminds me of people who throw around the phrase, ‘freedom of speech,’ apparently unaware that while the government may not constitutionally…

“Mom, Dad, meet Lars, isn’t he dreamy? We’re engaged.”

I’m wincing at the thought of her diving across the finish line.

White supremacists sometimes use ‘88' to symbolize ‘HH’ (Heil Hitler) as ‘H’ is the 8th letter of the alphabet. Ain’t they clever?

I’m happy it worked out but amazed that the knowing the ‘plot’ helped. As much as I love the movie the plot, such as it is, never touched my radar.

I loved the original, saw it dozens of times at midnight shows but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it to a young person today. I remember reading a reader’s review of ‘Wizard of Oz’ that said, “It’s so fakey, you can tell it’s just people in stupid costumes.” I’d be afraid that a newbie seeing the original ‘Rocky…

I think their defense will be based on a parsing of words. The attack wasn’t ‘successful’ because only 3000 people died, instead of 15,000. Or it wasn’t ‘in the U.S.’ because NY has always considered itself separate. Or it wasn’t a ‘terrorist attack’ since the explosives had already been planted by the New World Order.

Everyone should read Lindy West’s treatment of ‘Titanic’ as I did here on Jezebel some years ago. If I could easily find the link I’d include it.

It is about history. History tells us that millions of people fought a treasonous war to protect their right to own other people.

The point at which the plea is offered is before the defense has a chance to see all the evidence the prosecution has. It would be too early at that point to fold without being offered something from the other side. The defense merely needed to keep the case going so that the overworked prosecution would offer a deal…

As near as I can tell from that quick moving animation a lot of the items make sense to reorder simply and almost automatically, but... Slim Jims? My supply of Slim Jims is low so I require an automated resupply system? Seriously?

As near as I can tell from that quick moving animation a lot of the items make sense to reorder simply and almost…

It’s like Victorian era servants. Housemaid Jane has left, this is Violet, she’ll be the new Jane. And Violet is called Jane for the duration of her tenure, as is her successor.

“Crae Pridgen”? Is that a real name? If so, I mean no disrespect to Mr. Pridgen and I hope he’s well, but it sounds like saying “clay pigeon” in an offensive Asian accent.

In my parents’ house they have a full-length mirror on the back of the bathroom door. As a result I know that I make the same face Trump is making above when I’m grunting out a tough one.

The “I-can’t-wait-to-tell-my-side-of-the-story” position is usually followed in a couple of years (or months) by, “What’s past is past, I want to put this behind me and move forward,” with no actual exoneration intervening.

My takeaway — when I go into my parole hearing, I should bring cookies.
