My great-grandmother would always tell us kids not to swallow the seeds because we’d have watermelons growing out our ears. No death involved, just growing out our ears.

Dude, we all lie to people all the time. “What do you think of my new haircut?” “It’s nice.” I’m not going to tell that person their haircut looks awful. Because it helps nothing (they can’t change it,) it’s unimportant in the grand scheme of things, and it’s hair, it will grow back.

There’s a lot of stuff that can be construed as silly to participate in as an adult (my dad thinks adults should not be interested in anything animated because they are all cartoons for kids, for example.)

Use it or lose it was exactly what I was thinking of when I read workers take less time off with it. I just took some days off at the end of last year that I normally wouldn’t have (especially since I was working from home) because otherwise I would lose the days. 

They id’d the car as being the one stolen in a carjacking and they likely suspect the carjacker to be the suspect in other robberies. It was assumed that the person driving that car was the carjacker.

There’s also the adrenaline rush that a high speed pursuit gives. Having been a dispatcher who worked some of those pursuits, I can tell you that I got a bit of a rush off of it and I was just on the radio. It’s the same reason you can get half the officers on duty to go to an armed robbery in progress but you can’t…

People do stupid things when they are hit with grief out of the blue. Your rational mind isn’t working in that situation.

And they sure as hell don’t ban men from competing if their testosterone is above a certain level.

Good to know. I can’t remember what brand I bought (it was a long time ago when I took my niblings camping. 2 out of the three didn’t eat pork.)

Not transgender, just a drag queen. Although Kathleen Turner was great in the part, they probably should have given it to an actual drag queen. Most of the laughs from it come from them making jokes themselves, “Queens I like.” Or from Chandler’s mom, but that’s typical sniping between people who can’t get past their…

I’m fat. There are fat jokes that are funny. Mostly they are ones that are not shaming. (Most things people think are funny are making fun of people who are fat wearing certain types of clothing and such. I’ve never had an issue with fat Monica.)

It’s funny to me that what seems to be the best show is the one that sounds the weirdest and most boring. I mean, The Laundry Guy? 

Maybe online? Some of my family don’t eat pork and that’s how I found marshmallows that were Kosher for s’mores.

I am the exact opposite. The only melon I like is watermelon.

Interesting. I, too, am diabetic. I once ate too many sugar free peanut butter cups. It was not fun.

And, as a diabetic, I can tell you this is in practically any sugar free candy. I have a weakness for peanut butter cups. :(

See, I go to AMC all the time and I’ve never seen commercials once the movie starts and the lights are always down, so I don’t know what y’all are talking about.

I guess it boils down to how it’s run, because I have been going to the one in Tulsa exclusively for years (we don’t really have many, if any, independents that play first run, except the drive in) and it’s been great. Clean, I only get popcorn and a drink, but it’s as good as any other movie theater popcorn, the…

He wouldn’t have worked for Captain America. Not because he’s black, but because he is Will Smith and his acting style is great for things like Independence Day and the Men In Black movies. There are super heroes he would be good for (he would make a great Tony Stark, for instance) but Captain America (the Steve…

That’s probably because it usually is. Specifically, China. If you notice, any time you see news about movies changing things or, “We were going to do it this way, but we did it this other way instead” it’s almost always because China won’t have it the original way.
