oh, good. I thought it was idiocy on my part.

/me slaps head. I meant WASP culture. Wait a minute, that’s the same damned thing. /me slaps head again.

I think you forgot the trope of white anglo-saxon cultural values being the only important ones. Also the importance of “passing” as another species/race if you’re not in the majority.

That rule should be enforced league-wide by the umps where it’s clear that one player is cutting off a teammate (regardless of the gender of both).

Why do you only kind of know this hallway?  Years passing through it, and still you don’t know it well enough to call it by its first name?

Seems like the 8th inning and on was almost exclusively courtesy of Brewers past and present.

“Mr. Bohonyi’s opinion was that they did not engage in any sexual activity”

maybe he was thinking of cat-spiders

but if WAS really loaned to him by the jeweler, doesn’t she have the responsibility to return it, if not to him, then to the jeweler? Or is there a possibility that he’s arranged with the jeweler to retrospectively consider a purchase as a loan, so he can get her to return it to the jeweler, after which he’ll either…

wait, if this is against the law, how the hell has Walmart gotten away with suppressing unions for the last 20-30 years?

Phone chargers have an AC to DC adapter (aka “wall wart”). If that has an indicator light, it drains power. Even if it doesn’t, there’s a possibility that the circuitry in the wall wart itself is monitoring the electrical system for surges or bad waveforms that it would have to attenuate if there is something plugged…

Had anyone made a sworn statement in court as to what the jewelry was prior to that home invasion? Then I’d still be going with the court recorder/judge or someone who read the public record as the culprit.

It was the court clerk that broke in.  Perfect cover.

It ain’t called Cu Clack County for nothin’

So, will LEED be taking back the platinum certification for the Golden1 Center?  Crypto mining is energy intense.

Was that one baseball player Corey Koskie?

how long before someone does a #MeToo on Dave Madgett? His quote reads basically like

Kathleen appears to have moved to Reedley (Fresno), CA where her husband’s (and brother-in-law’s) great aunt Lucille lived. I say great aunt because Lucille was born in 1917 and had a brother named Lyle born in 1911 (both born in MN). I’m assuming that Lyle in this story is Lyle Jr.

...and did Lyle go with her? Did she end up having the kid? Did it have a well adjusted life? Did the child ever meet any of his grandparents? Were Gina and Jay, then presumably 5 years old or less, ankle biting terrors?
