Occasionally, I read about some group of inner-city people dedicated to recreating the culinary habits of people in the 16th century, and as they go through the list of horrible, terrible things, my immediate thought is always, "That is why modern society is so wonderful. You don't have to eat those things ever again!"

I stand zero chance of winning (I can see Balut at the top), but literally the worst thing I have ever tasted, in my entire life, was the cheese spread from a mid-90s MRE. My dad was military, and he had brought home a bunch from wherever the hell he got them (I'm pretty sure he hadn't been deployed recently, so maybe…

I was just watching Drive last night, and that kiss he gives Carey Mulligan is probably one of my favorite romantic moments in any film ever. It's incredibly sad, because he knows it's both the first and the last kiss he will ever give her before she realizes that he's really an animal. You can tell how he forces…

I do strongly advocate locking Cathy Young in a jar for an undetermined period of time.

you are really defensive.

well, you do have two other comments on this article. And I haven't said more than those two sentences. Everything else is shit you're extrapolating, H-funk.

This is your third comment on this article in support of GG. Is it turning out as well as you'd hoped?

It's like trading in your otherwise genial methhead dealers for Klan member methhead dealers. At least with the first ones, you didn't have to listen to their bullshit political rants.

If anybody wants a graphic that captures just how bad Twitter is at dealing with abuse, I refer you to this monstrosity (warning: pretty much every hateful thing a person can say):

Of course Keith Ablow thinks it's wonderful. what a fucking scumbag.

It looks like one of those elaborately-constructed classics you find in the bargain section of Barnes & Noble.

If he is trans, it's been for a long damn time. My father worked alongside him during the Gulf War, and I've met him several times myself. People who live in the South know that the very gay-acting straight man is just a thing down here. The only real evidence that would suggest he was anything other than straight…

oh, definitely.

well, if by just, you meant last week, sure.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's been my only trip to Asheville. For some reason, I can't remember if I saw Rasputina in Asheville or Charlotte.

Indeed it was! And my friend and I had grabbed tacos from a restaurant a block or two down right before.

See, now you're talking about the straw feminists who sure, maybe exist somewhere in the darkest realms of Tumblr (and I have run into one or two), but honestly 99% of feminists don't think like that. Rape is a feminist issue, regardless of the victim, but as I said before, male rape is problematic, because often it's…

I was at a Queens of the Stone Age concert in Asheville, NC, right after their album Era Vulgaris dropped. It's a meh album, and it was disappointing that they mostly played from that one and not an earlier, better one. But was really bad about the concert was the drunk couple standing behind me and my friend who…

except that people invoke the fact about men being raped not because they care about male victims, but because they want to not talk about female victims. That's why the MRA community was silent when Shia Lebeouf (sp?) said that he had been raped.

Problem is, if you're a burner account and you say something that an MRA would say, you immediately look like an MRA.
