We need a folk song about Fannie Lowenstein, the woman with the rent-controlled Plaza apartment. Because in today’s world, that’s some Paul Bunyan-level tall-tale shit.

Geez, I’d rather have a 10-minute conversation about Mideast policy with Anti-Semetic Elmo than eat at Guy Fieri’s restaurant.
No, it doesn’t register. That infant almost certainly slept through the movie. I’d rather be sitting near an infant at an R-rated movie than kids between 6 and 13.
Most likely his parents swear in front of him, or didn’t worry about what TV was on around the house when he was holder.
As a parent, I wouldn’t have done…
Nah, they’d just blame the “fallen woman” for tempting him as long as he plays the “I asked Jeebus to forgive me" card.
In my dream universe, someone tricks a candidate into making appearances on Chatroulette.
Yes - I was sold on it from the preview that came out last summer, and my wife and I have been watching it since it started. She was on the “this is odd and the lead character makes me cringe” to “this is great”. My wife is Jewish, and I had to back up and repeat the “JAP Rap Battle” from the most recent episode…
That’s fucking perfect. I love it. I’ve spent my whole life hearing about the Boomers, and just as that’s declined (unless we’re talking about their impact on Social Security), we’re now hearing about Millennials as a group on a daily basis. “Boomies” sums it up.
Wealth and taste aren’t often found in the same package, when you come right down to it.
Superior alternative to English muffins (crumpets): Portuguese (Azorian) bolos levedos - sweet muffins. Similar shape, they’re denser. You can find them at grocery stores all over New England (also, Ocean State Job Lot locations even in NY and NJ). And, not hard to make on your own. Can also be ordered online from…
It would be great if people saw what was done to Flint as the class warfare that it actually is, rather than what we usually hear - that advocating for a more progressive tax system, or taxing investments at the same rate as income - is “class warfare”.
I have little doubt that the Governor and his lieutenants will…
Our three boys either have had or will get the vaccine. It just made sense.
Yup, and if it’s close enough that they matter, I think the threat of Bloomberg keeps them in line. If Sanders starts to walk away with it, he gets in anyway and likely hands the election to the Republicans, as long as they don’t nominate Cruz.
I know she does - but there’s been a small amount of (premature) talk in recent weeks about the superdelegates (especially the current office holders) starting to move to undecided or switching if Sanders does well enough. It’s unlikely to happen.
This is a warning to the Democratic superdelegates not to back Sanders.
I was staying in Manchester NH over Christmas, and drove up to Sugar Hill and Littleton NH, and there wasn’t a damn bit of snow on the ground. And it was well above freezing. Seemed completely wrong.
Glad to see winter showed up.
That could lead to them getting uncomfortably flirty with each other over you if one of them decides that the “pretend we’re strangers” thing works for them. That could be worse.
I’m increasingly thinking that sort of training may be necessary.
Yup. When I’m feeling nice, I remind myself that without them, it’s impossible for people to have faith that the outcome isn’t pre-ordained. When I’m seeing it in action, I’m sometimes reminded of an old quote that Larry Ellison made about the software company CA - “Every ecosystem needs a bottom feeder”.
Honestly, I’m surprised there hasn’t been more unrest. The rich, and their lickspittle media pundits, like to act like to act all outraged at the notion of the rich being taxed more and the lower classes being slightly resentful. Feelings are “class warfare”.
No, what happend to Flint is class warfare. And, as usual,…
