Are you getting paid by the word? All you had to say was this:

I suspect the Skywalker that will be rising is Ben, after he returns from the dark side.

The correct term is “asplode.” 

My kid is not a junkie.

If RENT PRICES are what determines where you live, you should want junkies around to keep the rents low. Think, McFly, think.

Speaking of saving the children, did you notice the part where this concerned parent moved her kids into a neighborhood without a hospital nearby? 

If there are no hospitals in the area, it sounds like a terrible place for a working mother with small children to live. Especially when the little hellions are out riding their bikes in busy parking lots. Did you not do any research before you moved to such a dangerous, medical-care-lacking neighborhood?

Just so I understand, you believe building a homeless shelter will somehow exacerbate traffic on the Bay Bridge? Because... why again?

>Have I missed anything, assholes protesting decent living conditions for people with less opportunities than you had?

How does it handle in the pictured configuration/situation? Can it really tow that Airstream trailer at highway speeds? Safely, I mean...

And crushing the cans makes it easier to slip a few lead wheel weights in some cans to get more money!

throw it into the bag with some force, and it may register.

1000x this. About 15 years ago the Wal-Mart grocery in our neighborhood introduced self checkout. It was good, most of the time. Need a can of cream-of-chicken soup for tonight’s dinner recipe? Done and done.

You’re right. Talking about things like how you can’t get FEMA disaster relief money unless you promise not to talk bad about Israel, why that’s just silly to even mention. 

What is the utility of a creative SSID name?

Anyone who’s been to souvenir shops in Tennessee and pondered the vast selection of Jemima / Sambo products is not surprised by any of this.

If you’re interested in Texas prisons, check out Albert Race Sample. Years ago he guest-lectured at one of my college sociology classes. He’s the first convicted felon to become a probation/parole officer in Texas. He was a literal cotton-picking convict at some of the hardest prisons in Texas in the mid-20th-Century.…
