Law enforcement officer here to answer your driver's license question: a copy is no good, we do need to see the physical license. However, we can verify in our system that you do have a valid license, and most of us are not assholes and believe you when you say you lost it. The ticket for failure to display is…

I say it's pretty reasonable to in effect by this new policy at least operate as though the purchaser used one of the store's 20% coupons, if indeed the thing returned was purchased there in the first place (which is an awfully generous presumption in 2015 where there's no receipt or other evidence to indicate the…

Anna did a piece not too long ago about how she was being systematically harassed with death & rape threats and the cops were more or less "what's an internet?"

Reading Sondheim's assessment, I actually don't disagree with him.

Not a total scam. A good rating means nothing, but a bad rating does. Companies that take their reputation seriously don't allow a bad BBB rating to persist.

I just change her in the car. I think its more sanitary, and unless she's had a blowout, workable, worth the trip out to the car.

Those are the three that are actually usually okay, although I can't say I've been in many McDonalds. I have been in lots of Subways on our road trips though and they are pretty awful. It's northern BC and they're franchises. I guess the owners are pinching pennies. They did just recently update our library, now that…

Well, that's not how it is where I'm from, but that sounds nice. We have plenty of chain places here that don't have change tables for men and even some civic buildings. So from my perspective there needs to be some work done.

I worked at a little vegetarian coffeeshop in Southern Illinois wherein the only changing table was in the men's. And the ladies' was filled with free condoms! Oh, how I miss you, Longbranch Cafe!

Yep, being in DC it's been pretty much 100% at museums, parks, and other government facilities. :)

Yeah, sure. Aziz Ansari is in the PRIVILEGED GROUP! Growing up a skinny little Indian kid in South Carolina must have been a breeze. I'm sure he coasted along on nothing but privilege as the white male patriarchy embraced him. Yes, I'm being sarcastic. You are the problem.

I think there's a few people that were killed in Mississippi that would disagree with you, had they not been killed for being civil rights workers. I can never understand what it is to be a person of color and so yes, I will be an ally, but I'm pretty certain I can also be a civil rights worker. And I'm pretty sure…

My birthday is a few days before Christmas, and Barbie came out the year I was four. My father was sick that year and in and out of the hospital, and my mom was working nights in a restaurant to support us.

If you believe in equality, you're a feminist ...

The best is when it starts with "love her to death" and ends with "bless her heart." I've heard that many many times growing up in the south.

Isn't Blondie Whatsherface only supposed to be in jail for, like, 14 months?

It's incorrect anyway. Bluegrass and Moonshine are pure Appalachia. The Duck Dynasty people are from Louisiana. It should be Zydeco and Hurricanes. They shouldn't paint rednecks in such broad brushstrokes.

How cool about scuba and the trip! I love the organization and had the time of my life when I was a part of it.

Of the three above names, only one has been convicted of anything. Of the remaining two, only one has been accused by multiple victims. Also, the Oscars are about films, they aren't a morality competition.

+1 for Weather Underground, their Wundermap is the best thing ever.
