“Where are you from?”

I used to live in Albuquerque, and the cops there were notorious for driving roughly 5mph below the highway speed limit (this was city cops, not troopers on rural interstate) so they could watch a whole pack of idiots pile up behind them and refuse to pass. There was only one time that I was able to sneak my way past…

But, I thought if I bought The Ultimate Driving Machine, or a car that was Engineered to Move the Human Spirit, and if I was paying an extra 20-30k for the privilege, that meant I was buying a “better” car!

This is the reality of the “American Dream”. Anyone who thinks that voting for Hillary Clinton will change any of this is delusional, at best; unconscionably stupid, at worst.

Put...that coffee...DOWN! Coffee is for Carriers, only.

It’s not a myth—it’s a mythter.

Hold on, dumbass. You equate the word “thug” as a stand in for the n-word, so you get butthurt that these people are called thugs. But...none of these guys look black to me. They look like thugs. Go back to your safe space. I’m sure this paragraph was a trigger for you, and for that, I apologize.

Dude, there is NOTHING racist about Thug. During some of the race protests people rightly called some of the people thugs, because they were. Then others tried to negate that by saying “thug” was code for the N-word. No. Thug is code for “violent asshole”. They come in all races.

How is it used these days? Guys riding in a pack mentality, trying to act tough, are thugs.

Oh, for certain, people do have a predisposition to one addiction or another—statistically, 10% of the population. The primary predictor, which has been shown through several thousand studies over the years, is family history (genetics). It’s not the only predictor, but it is far and away more common in someone with…

So, if you spend some time around people in recovery, you’ll never find a consistent personality profile. Some of us are super intense, Type A, over-achievers, constantly striving to be Number One. Some of us are major isolators, who would rather avoid all human contact and couldn’t possibly care less about being…

Yeah, this is the sort of phrase that gets so engrained into the common language that eventually people don’t realize that it has no basis in fact. Unfortunately, there probably isn’t any way to erase this phrase from common usage, so I simply make sure I don’t use it at all, and hope for the best.

I would disagree. Lived there for almost 10 years and got 2 “reckless driving” tickets (automatic 25 mph over limit - 76 in 55). Straight and clear roads. Yes I was a squid but drove a 76 Maibu in the late 80's....not exactly a hoon. In general VA Cops and the driving laws are in fact DRACONIAN.

I agree. I don’t like people who treat service staff badly, or who bring pointless nuisance lawsuits, but she had a signed contract for these things so I don’t understand why the hotel would think she shouldn’t get them.

Obi-Wan didn’t need his ESPN app to know something horrible just happened.

You’d have been mauled before you finished the word “helium.” By us, not the bears.

Well, bears, helium is the second lightest element (as well as the second most abundant element in the universe). An enclosed container filled entirely with helium (a “balloon”) will be less dense than Earth’s atmosphere, where the concentration of helium by volume is only 5.2 parts per million. Thus, the balloon with…

USS America should’ve painted the pigs with numbers 1, 2, and 4. Leave the Kennedy crew looking for pig 3.

Biggest problem with the confusion between sadness and depression: depression, statistically, affects between 5-8% of the population, but the conservative estimates suggest that upwards of 50% of people in this country are looped up on antidepressants. People who need it for their clinical problem should have it.…
