Hot Pie, obviously.

His writing for adults is spectacular. Pretty much all of it, actually. I haven't read any of his kid stuff in decades, although I recall that Danny the Champion of the World was pretty good.

Yeah, but the Mormons increase the politeness level.

No, but he could sing like a motherfucker.

But all those beers you mention have 4-5% alcohol, which is the only reason I’m drinking lager. Hence, not light, or am I completely misunderstanding what the term means?

That’s… kind of the point, I think. He’s not a fan of guys having to work 10-hour shifts (assuming this isn’t someone choosing to throw themselves at the work for the love of it), and thinks that we should restructure society to eliminate them. But he knows that this won’t happen unless the guys who work said shifts…

Yeah that makes sense. I guess I’m not attracted enough to the taste of Coors or whatever to want 30 of the fucking things. And if I was going to drink 30, I’d want to make sure I got as drunk as possible as quickly as possible. But I suppose I’m being a sportsballer. Drink your light beers, my plebian friends! I,…

Actually Chomsky has talked in interviews about watching sports for fun. He's not really making the point everyone thinks he is.

But… if I'm drinking alcohol, I want to, you know drink alcohol. Otherwise water or tea or juice or pop or whatever is fine.

Eh… I highly doubt @space_robot:disqus is going to sports bars and shouting it at the general populace. Nothing wrong with a little self-deprecation among friends.

But I really like watching sports with friends who know their shit, because why wouldn't you want to know stuff about things other people care about, if they can explain it to…

… I don't think I've ever had a light beer. Why would I ever want to drink one?

The day I found Battle Cat with his armor set for like 5 bucks at a garage sale was one of the happiest days of… whatever week that was.

They do with me.

"Sure, but you are not with the majority of Americans on that. The majority clearly thinks that holding hands and singing 'bout the Lord is intrinsically valuable, more so than the secular arts. So if "society" is choosing, you know wh at decision they are going to make.”
Yup.

I’d add Guys as for the most part utterly brilliant, and even Women and some of the other ones have moments of greatness. But… yeah.

I honestly don’t follow. We can, as a society, choose what should and should not be tax exempt. As far as I understand it, we do so because we recognize that some things have some type of value or benefit to society which is not likely to translate directly into their making money. It seems to me that this is…
