With all seriousness, after reading all these comments, please tell me y'all have watched Buffy (the show, not the movie). Because it was 20 years ago and it hit all those points and more.

You do realize the director of Wonder Women has directed Entourage, right? Does that singularity make your head explode?

- me, election night, at 2 am after several glass of wine, decidedly NOT an immature teenager

A very adult way to view the world. Proof that trolls come in all political persuasions.

We consider ourselves ideologically conservative, as opposed to pure troll, hence hate Trump as well. Anyone who really is should as well (see, Kasich, McMullin). We weren't Clinton fans but were single issue voters on not wanting to destroy America, so there it was.

My son brought home one of those Highlights type magazines from school with "our next president"on the cover in preschool in December. It was really weird.

I always wondered though if they started moving the needle on that though.

It would seem to be a personal rather than professional choice, then. Some of the kindest nurses and doctors I know who would sob with you over losing your loved one (and mean it) would absolutely smoke someone trying to kill them and walk away whistling. I'm one of them, although I don't personally carry for a lot of…

No, that's dumb. If someone is actively trying to kill you they're not acting as your patient anymore. Hippocratic oath doesn't mean roll over and let someone hurt you. It does mean, for example, if someone was violent, for example, due to reasons out of their control Iike medications or a brain injury, you do your…

I read studies where the tech writes what the patient answers when asked questions like the date, month, etc and it still is a punch to the gut multiple times a day when they get to president and I see it in writing

I'm pretty sure John McClain did not directly cause the deaths of several thousand civilians whose corpses he was kissing on top of. He did kill a bunch of guys who were trying to kill him, and those guys killed some innocent people beforehand. He didn't fall into a building and accidentally collaterally kill a bunch…

I'm not saying it's outside of the realm of possibility. I also think those real life people made a stupid mistake too, especially if they had kids. I see the results of bad decision making on a daily basis (think, hold my beer). Which is fine, but the movie didn't posit it as such. I see real consequences of these…

Do you have kids? Serious question. It changed the dynamics completely for me. It's relevant because clearly Kent does.

I've had dogs my whole life. I have kids too. I've lost dogs and I work in a job where I see people die young tragically. There is absolutely no comparison between the two and as much as I love dogs, I wouldn't take the chance of leaving my kids motherless by risking my life like that. For another person, sure,…

Um, didn't the dad go back for the dog? Couldn't the whole issue have been avoided if the dad had been like, whoop, tornado coming, welp, so much for the dog, thank goodness all the people in my family are safe, I certainly wouldn't want to put myself in a scenario where my son might have to choose between saving me…

Roots is historical fiction, based on real events, in that case American enslavement of Africans. Kunta Kinte is not a real person, but we call him Kunta Kinte, not the name he was given against his will, because it mirrors the experience of real people.
The Handmaid's Tale has been described as "speculative fiction"…

Do you call him Kunta Kinte or do you call him Toby?

It sucks having a mother like that, even as a little kid. My mother is like Hannah except you know, now old. Yes, she's still a girl, even in her 70s, at least in terms of emotional maturity.

Well, Florida, that explains it. It's like it's own little bizarroland.

Considering the number of times he continues to ask to go there on Sundays, I don't think he's quite grasped that yet. He'd be pretty disappointed when he got there.
