Or my favorites are the British people who think that it's all America's fault that the Middle East hates them. It's like, y'all realize you have a history there that goes a little bit past Iraq, right?
That's disgusting.
I routinely get harangued by conservatives who have seen through my family's deep cover of not actually being Muslims. It threw them for a loop, but after a while, they deviously figured out that we are indeed still brown, and therefore obviously terrorists.
I want him to Kurtz this motherfucker.
No, because someone still hasn't tried to suggest that we just, like, stop fighting wars, you know?

So if you're a Latin nerd, maybe you can help me out. How do you translate Life is short, knowledge is eternal? I'm thinking Vita Brevis, Scientia aeterna but I'm no expert.

DON'T EVEN FUCKING JOKE ABOUT THAT.
Now now now, don't be unfair. Some Breitbarters are willing to induct East Asians into honorary white supremacy status (as long as they're a rung lower between the real white people, of course). I mean, where else are they going to get their waifus?
Series of Unfortunate Events. They even change it between the first and second halves of the episode.
Yeah, it just make you literally the only UKIP member in Glasgow.
Yeah, as someone with ADHD, that episode pissed me off beyond belief. I mean, has Fey ever actually spent time with an ADHD person on meds?
