The thing is, despite knowing this happened, we didn’t have any surviving video of the incident.

Why should we sit around and argue about how we are going to die

My favorite from Austin Powers is still “Random Task”, the stand-in for Odd Job.

Reminds me of my childhood, when reading “Mad Magazine”, and coming across this particular comic illustration:

Fuck. That.

No worries, dude’s an utter fucking moron.

Exactly.  Being 6' 2" I’d like to stand after trying to contort myself into the little space they give you. 

Exactly. If the aisle is empty, standing up helps everyone. There is a way to stand in the aisle without sticking your ass in someone’s face—typically by making sure your ass is pointed at the now-empty seat that you just vacated or in the aisle in front of or behind you. Basically anywhere but towards the…

Amen. Nothing to do with getting off the plane more quickly; everything to do with alleviating the agony that is my knees and back at the end of a long flight. Probably safe to assume that’s motivating anyone substantially over six feet tall, particularly if the person is also 40+.

This. I’m 6'5" and I can’t wait to get out of the fucking seat. 

This.  The reason I don’t “sit and relax” is that airplane seats are NOT relaxing when you’re tall, and have been sitting in them for hours.  I’m standing up so I can stretch.

ah, right-wing logic: rolling coal, pouring used motor oil into a storm drain, and over-watering a lawn during a drought are all “god given rights”, but two dudes kissing, someone smoking a joint, or a black person objecting to discrimination are all inexcusable crimes that should be punished...

Jesus Christ is there anything that the dipshit writers on this site actually approve of?  The Newsroom was....fine.  It wasn’t fantastic by any stretch but it wasn’t the Real Housewives either.  It was a serious show about serious adult stuff, which is better than 90% of television out there.  

They may  have flubbed the interpretation of one of Obama’s high points but their comparison of the Tea Party to the Talibanana was spot on.

something funny about an actual Nazi also being a grammar nazi

Aren’t you supposed to get drunk before you eat at Taco Bell? 

Are you saying that I am not getting top quality liquor at my local Taco Bell?

Bullshit.

I was just reminded yesterday of an old VHS our fifth-grade teacher used to show us on occasion back in '93. I did a quick Google search, and sure enough, the entire thing's on YouTube. The Internet is fucking amazing.
