I think my iMac recognizes it (it yells at me that it's an unreadable drive I can ignore or reject, but my macbook won't even do that) but it's my work machine, so I'll have to try it next time I work from home

yes! unrevoked is what I tried. I guess I have to just keep trying

I've attempted rooting my phone (HTC Droid Incredible) but can't get my laptop (a macbook) to recognize the phone in order to start the process. I know I was able to connect the phone when I had the original USB connector for the charger, but since I misplaced it, I can't get it to connect with a third-party wire (to…

I was thinking Criminal Minds. There has been more than one episode like this (involving confused veterans and/or survivalists in national parks)

"Do Christians weep over the Jack-o-lanterns and witchy-decorations that pop up everywhere on Halloween?"

I grew up sans designated religion (I do celebrate Christmas in many forms - as the solstice, as tradition, as time to spend with family, my xmas is about as religious as Thanksgiving, not that turkey day doesn't come with its own obliviously-exclusive issues) and had the vague idea growing up that there was a holy…

nah, I know I'm a fan of Louis CK because he's an honest, stand-up guy (no pun intended), whereas Denis Leary is just an asshole-lio-lio-lio-lio-lio-lio.

oh shit, I think they missed that one! I guess it was insinuated in the "we did not realize this interpretation is such a touchy subject", because come on, only a racist would even THINK that! but I just can't count it - too well-hidden. try again next time, Jackie

wow, they fit in a trifecta! "it was a joke", "her credibility is now undermined because YOU took offense (not because she printed something racist)" AND "we're not racist because we have friends who are minorities"

I think it's worth addressing how the acts are portrayed in porn, though, since for a lot of people, that may be their first introduction to an act, and can set impressions or expectations.

I remember as a kid, maybe as young as middle school, but most likely we were in high school, a friend in the back of the bus (we didn't have Facebook polls back then) told us that her mom had explained anal sex to her, and said "honestly, it just feels like you're pooping."

I am so glad it came down to these two. No award has ever been better deserved. I had to go with Christmas Shoes, because it is manipulative and forcefully religious, as opposed to Grandma..., which is just campy and obnoxious and spawned a stupid cartoon.

THIS. every time I hear the debate over this, they act like kids are going to buy this shit in bulk, stock up, and pop them like candy, or use as regular birth control. do kids these days have so much money that they can use a single $50 pill all the freaking time? I heard one "expert" talking about studies where they …

I used Kaboodle for my wishlist last year (the boyfriend and some family request one) and what I did like was I think it allowed for others to mark that they had purchased items without me knowing who? or was that BoxedUp?

Most of the people I know who are teachers or social workers or any other profession where their online identities may be a problem for their profession tend to change their FB name so that they aren't as easily found. The trend seems to usually be First Middle name rather than First Last names.

I totally agree. I actually heard a woman recently, after saying she had supported Herman Cain and pretty much everyone else in the room (mostly Republicans, too, I believe) literally laughing at her because he is so dumb, respond that she liked him because he didn't know anything! "Because all of these politicians…

She used to be not-so-Christian, but then, magic occurred and she saw the error of her ways and now she is right.

I agree with this. I think that this article in particular was pretty tactful about it. They only added it into a later paragraph as it was more relevant (she was leaving a client's home, people would ask "client of what?") and I believe they would have done this if she were a lawyer, a dentist, a taxidermist leaving…

Lowes' non-apology is actually more infuriating to me than the ad-pull (since it wasn't entirely clear, I thought, that this was definitely why the ads were pulled.) They start by saying they have a commitment to diversity and inclusion, but then later seem to restrict that to "diversity of opinion" which is fucking…

I think it's worth considering that this is not a study in American parents, but in American Parents Who Watch Jimmy Kimmel. I can't imagine acting this way toward my parents as a kid (though I was pretty precocious) maybe like the little blonde girl. (I may have rosier memories of my behavior as a child than reality,…
