They should make a movie about that which gets continuously misinterpreted by all those exact same people.

But they're just oh-so-American! You know, they're real Americans.

Hey 40% of the American population that is still white, remember when we could still keep brownie and blackie down? You know, were it not for us being riddled with incompetence.

Eventually, O'Reilly finds himself so unemployable that the only work he can find is relaxing at home in his huge house payed for by the decades of multi-million dollar salaries earned from employers who payed out millions in hush money to cover up his sexual assaults and the continued royalties from the shitty…

I believe that's called Gretchening a meme.

Which I believe was just five minutes of Cosby yelling, "hey, hey, hey!"

Honestly, the biggest factor in companies starting to pull from Breitbart was Google changing their advertising policies to allow clients to block their content from appearing on certain pages. Which I can't help but feel they did in no small part to fuck over Breitbart, because by all accounts Google hates them and…

Ironically, the Republicans are really more opposed to American values than in support for them. They cite the whole "work hard and pay your dues mantra", but that's only as an excuse for why undesirables ought to be kept away from the table. Most minorities who are in positions of success probably worked a lot…

Oh damn. I'm a computer scientist and an anthropologist. I'm working on a programming language for social modelling with a type system that uses some topology. But you'd definitely know a lot more than I do!

See, I don't actually understand why people think that all corporations are invariably evil. There are a couple that I would even say that I really like, such as Costco and Berkshire Hathaway. And even more, like the tech companies, which aren't perfect but do lots of good things too, like investment into basic R&D…

Dude, I'm just happy to have someone who is willing to talk topology with me!

I've always assumed that the expression was a colloquialism intended to express the more abstract mathematical concept without the benefit of understanding the nuances of topology. Essentially, that time is a line (flat) that meets itself again (circle). Again; not the mathematical terminology, but a layman's…

Nah, I just like the giant cup full of frozen yogurt. The ice cream bars looks really good too, though.

Well, we think of time as a line, but if it repeats itself it would be a circle.

Us poor folks can make do with a fleshlight, a stool, and some ducktape.

Because some of us aren't terrible people.

A spoon full of sugar helps keep the lower classes down!

It's funny, because my experiences with Heinlein have been precisely the opposite! I used to positively loath his writing, because it's just so libertarian and I've never shared that particular political philosophy. For a very long time I used to lump him in with Ayn Rand. But then as I got older, I gained a…

You know, it's interesting that you say that it hasn't stuck with you, because I've heard pretty similar things from a lot of people. It definitely doesn't make much of an impression on the first reading, but when you go back, there's a lot more to it that people miss out on. I've found it especially salient…

That's fair enough. I certainly know that when I get started ranting about books I don't like, sometimes I go a little bit overboard! And by sometimes, I mean . . . everytime. Without fault.
