Hitler won an election too.

Imagine you had said that on Jan 20th, 2001. George Bush, heretofore the worst president in the nation’s history, was an intellectual heavy-weight by comparison. Trump purportedly asked his foreign policy coach why we couldn’t use nukes to resolve disputes.

If you’re an evangelical who voted for an admitted pussy grabber who walked in on naked teenage beauty contestants then you didn’t take it seriously.

Agreed, but fuck US too, because most of us have assigned them the responsibility for finding and picking potential candidates. Most of us, myself included, have merely waited to see what the party has brought us for the primaries. By that time the damage is often already done.

And what odds would you have given beforehand that evangelicals would vote for a man who bragged about grabbing women by the pussy or that struggling steel workers would vote for a man who actually bought chinese steel for his buildings, or that small business people would vote for a man who had caused the failure of…

The only Sanders supporters who bear any blame are those who didn’t vote for Ms. Clinton in the general election as the only alternative to giving the nuclear launch codes to an unprincipled, self-centered, mendacious madman driven by delusions of grandeur and an inferiority complex.

Well now that I’ve read your cogent argument that Senator Sanders didn’t have a shot at the Presidency because you say so, I see the error of my ways.

That is not what the exit polling has shown, Dipshit.

I am absolutely amazed at the number of asshats in this thread trying to justify stopping to pull “essentials” out of the overhead as they exit the plane.

I’m often away from home for more than a month at a time (*sigh*) so I did something similar and slipped one of the slivered cubes from the ice maker into an empty plastic soda bottle (after running it under the faucet for a moment to get it to fit).

Sigh, “The Slot” has turned out to be an extraordinarily prescient title for a website about this particular election cycle.

Show me a damn textbook that recommends that and I will.

A corollary to number 4: don’t follow so closely that you have to slam on the brakes.

Jesus, I almost don’t know where to begin.

At least ten years ago Jersey City streamlined the fund-the-city-with-parking-fines process: instead of expensive tow trucks they just affixed a boot with a keypad on your tire and slapped a sticker on your window with an 800 number to call and pay for the unlock code. I seem to recall the fee was about $125, give or…

I’ve always wished that BBC had fined Clarkson a buttload of money and given it to his victim then made him perform every fucking scene for the next year wearing dresses —picked out by his victim or by the internets.

It isn’t just knees that are compromised in the airlines’ apparently never ending quest to increase rows: around 2012 I noticed that Southwest was replacing conventional seating with new seats that had much thinner padding. I confirmed with a flight attendant that the new seats provided enough space savings to add an…

Oh dear lord, no wonder the airlines get away with this crap when it takes only a few comments for this to devolve into a fat-shaming and/or free market arguments.

The airlines have engaged in a decades-long process of ratcheting down accomodations to see what they can get away with. If you aren’t yet uncomfortable on…

Summer sports: pole vaulting as a participant, hammer throw as a bystander.

How many grains of salt are there in the shaker on my dining room table?
