Oh god. The .net suffix is just hilarious in itself. Best URL joke since the .edu website in You Only Move Twice.

Wow. She is really bad at accents!

The staff can't get to the next airport, then a plane with 200 passengers including an unknown number of doctors gets delayed. In pure utilitarian decision making it makes perfect sense to pick people to leave this plane instead.

No. First Class would not be in the lottery, since a first class ticket explicitly includes a specific seat on a specific plane. Cattle class does not, and that is part of the reason why air travel is so mindnumbingly cheap these days.

I honestly don't see how he has a case against the airline. They asked him to leave the plane as is their right. He refused which is a crime. United called the police.
If there was brutality, then he has a claim against the police (or Marshall's or whatever LEOs were involved) but not the airline.

And the employees would not have been in a position to crew another flight, delaying that flight for a couple of hundred people at least.

Hot Take coming through!

I just realised. We are going to get Hemsworth and Pratt together in one film. Well, I best enjoy my heterosexuality while it lasts.

In my case, I was surprised when I found out, aged about 5 or 6, that the stories we heard at my Catholic school and at mass were things that people believed really happened. I guess I have just always been an atheist.

They may be evil, but they are not a threat to our western societies. There is no realistic series of events that leads to any sort of Islamic take over of western liberal democracies.

Only in Professional Wrestling would you see a man with that goofy grin as thousands of people chant "You suck!" at him! One of my favourite scenes in a long time.

It gets pretty tough to watch whenever they add in more British characters. The era when Daphne's mum is living with them, in particular, can be a slog and any episode with any of her brothers is guaranteed to be shit.

No. Trump is not speaking in the hypothetical. He says that he actually does these things.

Even that wouldn't be a win. To really win against something like the ideology of ISIS you need to build the alternative. Schools, jobs, cultureā€¦

Yeah. The population is also made up of people who decided that it just wasn't important enough for them to bother voting against the racist, sexist, sexual assaulter.

I think it obviously helped that they had a really well developed character/actor combo. But they also hit it out of the park with their casting of the supporting cast. Apart from Cheers, is it the best sitcom cast in American history?

Yeah. I am in the UK too. The rotating block of channel 4 morning comedies only has one weak spot as far as I am concerned, and that is Raymond. 3rd Rock, King of Queens and Frasier are all strong pieces of work.

It's on every day here. I think it holds up pretty impressively. Especially the farce episodes.

Yes. Isn't it AWFUL that words change meaning. Wouldn't it be FANTASTIC if words stayed NICE and stable. It would TERRIFIC if language had never changed. I would much rather be speaking Proto Indo European.
