Maybe that’s it. Folks may have concerns, but no clear idea how to fight this. It’s one thing to make a quick quip about some celebrity, but to muse intelligently about this issue, other than expressing obligatory outrage, takes a bit more knowledge. I wonder what questions should we be asking our representatives? Who…

Let’s hope she wins in court; though if she does I imagine the files about this will have been found to gone mysteriously missing or destroyed. Another recent court case gave us a right to challenge status on the No Fly list (as well as find out if we’re on it, which previously we didn’t even have the right to know).…

“Both of whom have disowned me.”

where are all the comments at?? Seriously it’s like the nsa already shut this thread down or something...

The greatest threat to the American government, is Americans. Not Iranians, not Russians etc. Americans.

What does reasonable look like to you? I agree with your sentiment, but I fear that we’re so far past ‘reasonable’ we cannot go back. The degree of swiftness and ferocity they used to shut down the Occupy protests, politics aside, was downright scary. And that was, what, 2011?

Thanks Poitras, for doing this. Our own government staring down at us like we live in their petri dish, poking us with their probes as we go about our business like we are all suspects to blow our own home apart and hurt our own people. And we’re not supposed to talk about it or ask about it either, just supposed to…

“What am I going to tell my husband?”

I mean this in the nicest way, but what are you talking about? I re-read your comment a few times and I’m still confused.

I believe the point that particular customer was trying to make was “I am the result of a hate-fuck between Satan and Cruella De Vil."

once upon a time i worked in the most magical place on earth on a day when our small, specific location was almost out of maps. there was a printing delay and we had 3 boxes to get through the weekend. that’s like 1500 maps which wasn’t really enough. to the point where we were contemplating scouring the building at…

From that point on the guy would call ahead for reservations and ask for “a chair without arms on it.”

That’s called Thursday night.

*At a fried chicken place somewhere in San Antonio*

Chili and beer for lunch was a bad idea.

“Dammit, I knew you’d be the kind of bitch that would be angry that I stole your identity and used it to publish terrible writing. Why can’t you just be cool, Knibbs?”

Someone once set up a fake law firm website with my name (I am a licensed attorney) and was using the fake firm to scam people on craigslist. I started receiving angry calls about people that had placed money in escrow with my firm. I had to notify the state bar (so I didn’t suffer professional discipline), the local…

I asked if Elite Daily could help me find the person impersonating me. “Unfortunately we’re not able to give out other people’s email addresses,” a PR person emailed me.

I totally love/hate Sonic. Love the ice, the unsweetened iced tea, and the limeade. Hate the ridiculous amount of salt in/on everything they cook. Fortunately, I now live in an area where this is moot as there are no Sonics in south Florida (for the time being — there is a Sonic in everyone’s future, so watch out!).
