Jokes? About fireworks? Well this shouldn't stand! We need a For Your Consideration about the importance of fireworks.

Finally, someone brave enough to defend the unpopular event known as sports! This is the kind of controversial second opinon For Your Consideration is designed for.
I find it highly unlikely that the Hobbes shaped condom at the top of the page is officially licensed.
Oh phew, Funny or Die has a take on GoT.
If you think my point was in the comparison of the outcome and not the justifications used in support of the outcome, then you have not granted me the same charity you've asked for.
I'd argue Justine Sacco was trying to be funny by being racist, I don't agree with Ronson's interpretation of her intention.
Well I don't know how I can do anything about any of the things I think are wrong, outside of supporting legislation that makes it illegal, maybe? But I can certainly criticise it. Maybe if I'm lucky what I'm saying will strike something in someone and they change their behaviour, but mostly I have no delusions that I…

So when you said this is about her "being called out" you were lying through your teeth?
The gig, obviously.
What public support was she receiving by playing a gig with her band?
She keeps doubling down because she's being forced into a corner by an angry mob who chose vengeance as an appropriate response to an incorrect position.
People need to read Jon Ronson's "So You've Been Publically Shamed".
Out of all the network Late Night hosts, I find Colbert to be the best. In fact I absolutely hate the parts of the show that feel like he's trying to replicate the success of Fallon.
When we include the ones I like on cable, Last Week Tonight is the only one with a good social media presence, Conan just uploads the…
