If ETP and SXL start drilling again in defiance of the Army Corp of Engineers, then the Governor of North Dakota and the local sheriff will surely have to go after them with water cannons, dogs, rubber bullets, and orders to evacuate, right? Right? Because they care about laws and stuff.

I don’t do Santa with my kids, so I already come at it with a bias. But there is something about the execution of the tradition of Santa that does have some issues with socioeconomic status, which often overlaps with race, because America. A coworker the other day was sadly recalling when their kiddo asked why Santa…

Goddamnit. I seriously can’t remember a day in the last month where I haven’t hated humanity at least once.

I don’t think Kim and Kanye ever lived together. I think she’s some kind of weird trophy wife for him and she and the kids are like extensions of his ego that he trots out and dresses up - Kim in his weird skin suit fashions and poor little North in those contrived Ninja turtle get-ups. But I seriously doubt they have…

Deadline describes it as “a fish-out-of-water story reminiscent of films like Splash and Big,”

I know he isn’t popular in these parts but I think Trevor Noah just did a really good segment on basically how to deal with this - especially at the end of this segment. you have to talk to these people like toddlers. not in a mean way - but in a “explain yourself” way. don’t argue, just question them into oblivion. I…

What can be done to combat this kind of thinking? I have immediate family members that just flatly refuse to grapple with facts-- when they’re confronted with them, they just say, “I don’t believe that”. It feels like democracy hangs on us figuring out a way to bring these people back into the realm of reality, but I…

Yeah. Not sure how not being into that means you’ve got “outdated thoughts on sex.” To each their own, I say. And I got the sense she was just trying to be funny when she said, “look what happened!” Not sure why she has to say she likes something if she doesn’t. I would say the same thing, not in a way that expressed…

I hate to tell you, “basic” is not a normal name for a baby. Especially with the lower-case b.

I started watching it and my husband walked by and said “why are you doing this to yourself? You’re going to have a rage stroke before he’s even inaugurated” I replied that I felt that I had to watch as some kind of penitence for not working hard enough here in Florida to help to defeat him (not really, but I’m afraid…

The shitweasel should come to my house. I flew my flag upside down after the election. If he put his foot in my door he’d get a heck of a surprise, though. My male German Shepherd doesn’t suffer fools kindly.

Times is hard for Katherine Heigl

Could be ozone from an electrical arc. That has a smell.

Old TV’s used to have that smell, which I assume is what she is talking about? Fellow Olds will remember when you turned it on and got the “bwonnggg” sound and the static? It had sort of a metal smell.

My holiday card this year says “Happy Holidays” in ten different languages and I’m giving them to all my miserable Republican neighbors along with $25 donated to “liberal” causes in their names.

Wow, 24! People know a lot of stuff at 24.

Every time Kellyanne Conway speaks, a bird flies into a window.

A friend’s child really wants to go to boarding school, which his parents attended. I feel very strongly that he wants to go because he is gay and his parents are in total denial about it. They talk about his “girlfriend” and the whole room tips to the side with the amount of eye rolling that happens.

But Hillary’s facial expression at the balloon drop, and that thing she did with the coffee and the reporters, and how she stepped off the curb that one time, all hard evidence of her neurological problems and totally cool to tweet/talk/send the minions on the news circuit with no proof of that at all. She filed…

No. But my best friend’s sister’s boyfriend’s brother’s girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this guy who’s going with the girl who was a friend of his and he said that Dan was no Jack Kennedy. And, also that he passed out at 31 Flavors.
