It's counter-intuitive, but wouldn't it further their cause more by simply leaving them alone? What better way to convince people to join your jihad against Christianity than by allowing WBC to parade around your country proving that Christians really are batshit insane. Of course for PR's sake, they would probably…

My 2yo is like this with any kind of sauce. She thinks the fry, chicken nugget, etc. is just how you get the sauce from the plate to your mouth. She just licks off the sauce and dips again. The worst part is that the sauce on daddy's plate magically tastes better than hers, so I get toddler spit mixed with mine.

You're not alone. I like good soups, casseroles, breakfast scrambles, etc. My wife is the polar opposite though and I keep threatening to replace all of our flatware with cafeteria trays.

I'm sure I'll catch all kinds of flack for this comment, but here it goes anyway. If both parties are drunk, conscious, and "consenting" (assuming an intoxicated person can consent) how do we determine who raped who? Generally everyone sides with the woman. That has always bothered me. There are instances of women…

I'm not quite sure how that would have gone down. Isn't there some kind of professional courtesy among radical religious groups? Kind of like honor among thieves or sharks not eating lawyers?

I just add everything that I need to the list then when I get the monthly early-warning email, I take stock and adjust accordingly. It helps to have an item or two that is cheap that you can throw on to increase your total items to 5 and get the total discount. We use a single stick of deodorant for example.

How did catcalling even originate? Has any man in the history of the world ever gotten laid as a result of commenting on a random woman's body? Maybe I'm just too much of an introvert and therefore it was never appealing to me? Have I looked or even (discretely) stared at a beautiful woman? Of course. Any guy who…

I have a friend that is a government contractor and is required to have an account, but can't post anything other than their name or friend anyone. That way they get notified in order to untag themselves from photos, unfriend people, etc. Different security levels and departments have different rules of course.

How does this work with my rectangular coffee table?

I'm 6'1" and can't afford 1st class. Sleeping pills are the only reason I've survived multiple trans-atlantic flights. I am also a dude, so that helps.

Malaysian airlines just isn't having a very good year are they? They need to start bringing a lucky pig or something on every flight.

Nope. I pay no attention to my mom or sister's sex life. And when I say trained, my dad is a self defense instructor who TRAINS people in self defense. I believe that is the correct usage of the word, but I can substitute TEACH if that makes you more comfortable.

You're great at twisting words around. At no point did I suggest that all minimum wage earners have lots of children. I don't even consider 3 kids to be a lot. The point is that a HS student making minimum wage isn't as big a problem as someone trying to support a family on minimum wage.

Nah, with Russian cops it's all about the $$$. That's all that matters.

Interestingly, if you compare it to minimum wage in 1950, it should be $7.42, which is pretty close to where we're at. If you start with the original minimum wage from 1938 though, you only get $4.23. Different inflation calculators give you slightly different numbers.

Yep, and based on inflation, it really should be $8.97 just to keep up since then. Let's round that out to $10 and mandate that it is updated yearly (up or down) based on inflation. Sold.

That's a statement I can agree with. I wish we could bring back some of his programs rather than the mutilated versions we have today. Another CCC, WPA, or TVA would do wonders.

That works too, but we have to be willing to deal with the consequences of allowing those markets to collapse. Past experience has shown that they'll just end up getting bailed out by the taxpayers.

Well, as long as there are assholes, somebody is going to be getting screwed.

Nor should the worker be subsidized by the employer or customer.
