Yeah, Sadie's no shorter than Grandma Pizza, just to name one. SU's drawing style tends to exaggerate stuff like height, breadth, and shortness to help make the characters maximally distinguishable.

I approve of this.

If a nice old lady makes you dessert, you clean your plate and you say, "Thank you, ma'am." End of story.

I guess. But who's to say I'm not somebody's idea of an asshole? (Besides, I'm not a Hindu.)

Fiat iusticia, ruat coelum. True enough words … but you had better be goddamned sure you mean them, and can say them without ulterior motive. Hybris nemesem invitat.

Same, except that I felt bad for feeling nothing for Chuck. We've all got our stories, and Chuck's has just reached as terrible a low as I can readily imagine. One shouldn't be utterly without pity for him. I need to regroup and try harder.

I wonder if the big reveal about Rose might be … that there was less to her than met the eye. That she was a flawed, confused individual who dealt with things as best she could, but who, in following her instincts, also made profoundly regrettable choices (because God knows, none of our instincts are as reliable as…

Here in Charleston, High Wire makes a damned fine entry in the canon. It's one of the more diversely botanical numbers, but purism for its own sake is always worth questioning.

It's odd: if DeGeneres had announced this about any other sitting POTUS, he'd probably roll his eyes in private, at most, and sarcastically wonder how his life could ever go on after such a blow. But Trump's the only Chief Exec ever to be petty enough that this news might actually sting him.

You've got all my sympathies, man; hope things are going a tad better, and best wishes.

I was fourteen, and cheered like a sugared-up kindergartner. No regrets.

I don't mind reliving Clinton's defeat at all. It's the whole "the other candidate winning" business that takes the fun out of it.

I have equally little doubt that in that scenario, her résumé would've peaked at "nondescript Illinois state representative."

Third-cousin relations seems like a mighty attenuated example of "incest." I'm not quite sure where that would be considered scandalous.

Well, yes. But … but porn.

OBJECTION.
A MANWICH IS A MEAL.

G____r.

A fine overview … though I don't see how anyone could get away without including Kinky Friedman's "Highway Cafe":

The video makes another interesting point near the end, involving maladroit or underexperienced men who fear rejection, and who might be fantasizing less about power than about a world on "easy/learner's mode." (Of course, the practical difference might not amount to all that much, and women might fairly have some…

Which is utterly ridiculous. We also like food.
