MLK’s letter about the white moderate being more of a roadblock than the KKK to racial justice has never been more true than it is today. Don’t protest at a sporting event, don’t bring politics into music, don’t talk about gun control after a mass shooting.

The USOC’s desire (and to be honest, the American public’s desire) to win more golds/medals than other countries to prove our superiority allowed this to happen. Allowed the election of board members who “produced results.” The same desire caused the Russians to implement a massive doping scheme, the same with the

Cowardly also because when McGahn threatened to quit rather than order Mueller fired and told Trump to order it himself if he so wished, Trump immediately backed off. He’s definitely the type to send his underling to do the actual firings.

Sure, in your case, if I were one of the cocktail drinkers, I often just wave off your part of the bill and ask you to chip in on drinks at the next place, or spring for a couple of pitchers. My group of friends tend to split the bill based on round numbers and you might pay $5 more than you owed this time and you

Asking for a lemon is fine, normal even. There are people who ask for a dish of lemons, and use 4 sugar packets, or if they’re in a classy restaurant that doesn’t have a sugar caddy, ask for sugar specifically to make shitty lemonade because they’re so stingy they refuse to pay for lemonade or any other beverage. You

Maybe in the old days, or maybe if he flies out of some shithole airport, but if you’re flying a major US airline out of a busy airport, the upgrade list is packed with that airline’s frequent flyer members and its sorted by tier. The only flight in recent memory that I got a random upgrade was a half-empty flight

Mayo + Sriracha is great for fries.

The Venn diagram of people who do this and people who tip poorly is a perfect circle.

Easy solution. Mumble something about God and praying for their affected loved ones, then ramble about how you’re setting up a commission or taskforce to solve their problems. Then blame _______ when nothing actually happens.

This should honestly be illegal. We give law enforcement so much power over us, they should have to adhere to a stricter interpretation of our laws in order to protect us from them. I know the military alters certain Constitutional rights while in uniform, so it’s not unprecedented an idea. A man we give the power of

Fucking Tom Coughlin, man.

How much of your freedoms are you willing to lose for the illusion of safety? When we plan to go out and bar hop or party, we make arrangements for cabs, but I often drink one glass of beer or wine when out to dinner and am fine to drive. Am I slightly more impaired than completely sober? Yes. Is that impairment worse

I’m sure he can hold a conversation about inane topics like pop culture or celebrities, or tell behind-the-scenes stories from various shows quite well. He’s not socially awkward. I doubt they were having in depth discussions on serious topics, and I question her definition of intelligent conversation.

Ah yes, the Asian small dick stereotype which coincides well with the effeminate, nerdy Asian male stereotype. “They’re smart and good at numbers so don’t hesitate to go to an Asian doctor or CPA, but don’t consort with them.”

The Asian women alt-righters prefer are usually raised quite traditionally, in the sense of taking care of the house/kids and being submissive to the man of the house. They are either immigrants or first generation Asian-Americans raised by an overbearing father/parents, which fits into the alt-right mindset well.

The real fact that white people don’t want to confront, is the fact that most white people are racist. (White people will object to this because they have narrowly defined racists as hood-wearing, swastika-bearing racists.)

White people don’t call out other white people on their racist shit, not because they’re all racist, though many are, but because it would be indecorous to do so. That’s why they all believe they’re not racist - they take turns saying racist shit and never get called on it so they come to the logical conclusion their

Given the choice between ceasing their shitty behavior or be labeled shitty people, they choose to change the definition of “shitty” in the official white people dictionary so they conveniently fall outside of it. (See: racism)

What’s the point? You know her answer will be some infuriating horseshit.
