In my opinion, doing something without the express consent of the patient crosses the line from negligence into assault and battery territory.

You failed to address all of the situations in which forced penetration (or at least, penetration of the vagina and/or anus, without warning and/or open consent) do occur. Please revise your answer.

Not that long. With parole eligibility and good behavior, along with the fact that they’re white and the parole board will give them the benefit of the doubt due to that, it’s not likely that they’ll serve even half of their sentences.

Bear in mind that you may not be making that value judgment in a vacuum. Plenty of people of color convicted of crimes that are similar in terms of danger to the public (drug use, petty theft, burglary, etc. - where no one is actually INJURED as opposed to like, assault, or whatever) have spent a lot more time in…

Ah, OK. I know that he used to (or might still) walk while reading, and I always thought that was a unique skill.

I cannot wait to see this film. Jordan Peele is a national treasure (so is Keegan-Michael Key) and as far as I’m concerned, I cannot WAIT to see more from him (them). Hopefully this is just the beginning of his career.

I still read recreationally in college, but grad school murdered my desire to read. It was around 1000 pages per week, all told, and not like, fun stuff, but volumes and volumes of cases, case summaries, law summaries, ugh. I did get the desire to read back, and I did have to work hard to cultivate it. What did it…

True story: Stephen King goes on walks and reads while he walks. And he was reading a book when he got hit by someone driving a car. I always found it fascinating how he can read and walk at the same time, until I heard what had happened to him.

Imagine how pissed they’re gonna be when they find out that, with the aid of a tiny little gel cap you can keep inside of an old Altoids tin in your pocket, that you can eat all of the dairy you could ever want.

After a certain point being when the BMI gets into the obese range.

“Hopefully the ‘bomb’ was left unlocked because we’re the federal government, who are we kidding, we can’t unlock a goddamn iPhone, and also, hopefully they left their Facebook app logged in so we can look through and see if they like Herr Trumpenfuhrer.”

You are thinking of this as a guest/host situation.

You’re assuming that things like “logic” and “reason” and “the bare semblance of any intelligent sentience” in these... poor excuses for human beings... carry any weight whatsoever.

Try a white noise machine! If you’re poor like me, or cheap, a gigantic cheap box fan should do the trick. That’s how I deal with pretty much everything in my neighborhood and it works pretty well.

Yeah, I got it, I speak enough Spanish for my job not to sound like a moron. If you read the article, the chef actually has a recipe for “cheese sauce,” the majority of which is actual cheese. So I get that this may not be like, a purist’s version of nachos, but what the hell ever happened to the glorification of…

Please be careful with a heat lamp. A few years ago my friend’s house burned down because they left a heat lamp on for the dogs in the backyard.

I can second the “please talk to your neighbors first.” My elderly lab mix was apparently barking nonstop at the kids outside while they got on the bus, and for like an hour afterward. I had no idea this was going on until my upstairs neighbor let me know, and I was horrified to find out. For me, it was just a matter…

Check city ordinances. They are specifically banned in many cities. Then call code enforcement.

Maybe now we know why all these GOP candidates are winning elections. Millions voting illegally... for them

I don’t know about the syphilis (hahahaahahahahahahahaaaaahahahahahahah), but I am 100% certain he is an alcoholic. Signs include persistent redness/flushing, broken capillaries, and prominent signs of aging including age spots (http://rehab-international.org/alcoholism/warning-signs). That guy has the worst skin I’ve…
