If an embryo is “not a person, what is it? Because if you left it alone, that’s the only thing it can become,” he said.

The White House needs an occupant who values and prioritizes life.

“If an embryo is “not a person, what is it? Because if you left it alone, that’s the only thing it can become,” he said. “It can’t develop into a pony!”

This little docu was certainly entertaining. But it isn’t groundbreaking or unique at all. And despite what this author claims, it doesn’t focus on the lives of the dancers. It talks to the dancers but the focus is on these male musicians. All the dancer interviews were in the club. We saw Future and the DJ at their…

The guys who have been flying the confederate flag in the last couple of weeks on my commute must be people coming from historic sites and monuments where they must have helped take down the flags!

Well, guys, I’m sorry I missed this one because I have a great story that involves my own father, may he...well, may he rest. He often took myself and my siblings and various grandkids out to eat at a slightly-better-than-Fridays chain restaurant which is now defunct. On one of these outings with my mom, my sister and…

Old ladies were easy to get them to like you: something along the lines of “Do your parents know you gals are here” or comment on how young they look and you are golden.

Cocktail sauce is really easy! You just pour out ketchup into a mixing bowl, and then yell at it.

I’ve actually got a nice old people story to add this week!

On free pie day our Baker’s Square reeks like a charnal house from all the seniors packed in there, seething with ancient indignation over every little thing. I once saw a wizened old lady complain that her tea was too hot and demand the waitress “fix” it. The poor woman had to stand there pouring little drips of her…

My favorite regular from my serving days was Mr. Bartle. Never a fuss, tipped well, knew our names and always asked how my college studies were going. When he took a once-in-a-lifetime trip to the Galapagos Islands (in his mid-70s), on his return he came in one afternoon when he knew it would be slow to show us his…

That is a serious upgrade.

God she totally sucks for trying to help people get paid for their work, and to get paid for her own work. I MEAN WHAT A BITCH WHY CAN’T SHE JUST LEAVE THE MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION ALONE????

My mom, picking me up from college one year: Have you gained weight, or is it just your new haircut?

This is the kind of situation where the kicksss me who lives in my head and is always witty and on top of it would just stare at him and say, “I’m sorry, did you just basically tell me you’d like to fuck your grandmother?” And since this is all in my head, I would then stare at him while I take a drag off my cigarette…

“Girls who have been raped are normally fucking crazy; you actually seem really normal and pretty stable.”

Absolutely. This piece is utterly reductive and unhelpful about something that’s wonderfully, richly complex. People aren’t always precisely sure of what or who they like. Frankly, I think a modest majority of human beings live in that shifting, undefined space. And it’s ok. It truly is. It’s a nice place to be. It’s…

In my opinion, ethnicity isn’t something one can really move in and out of physically or mentally.

That’s why I occasionally drive by and throw trash in the yard of the guy who works the night-shift at my corner gas station. “Fuck you, Roger! Why my gas and smokes still so spendy?”
