I know a lot of people are saying how many things don’t add up in this situation and there’s so much implication that this was nefarious. And I wouldn’t necessarily be shocked to find out that in fact there was something more to this.

This one actually does a pretty good job. Give the first episode a shot because that totally hooked me that it wasn’t just more superheroes being superheroes. 

I’m with you. But this is a polarizing subject in no small part because you have people who remember life before smartphones and then there are those who only know life with smartphones. Even pointing this out I might be excoriated on one part by the “olds” who don’t want to be considered a techno-luddite and on the…

Everyone? No, not quite.

BECAUSE ANYONE WEARING HEADPHONES OR TALKING ON A CELL PHONE  never does it at conversational levels. IT’S LIKE THEY’RE TALKING IN ALL CAPS WHICH IS ANNOYING AS HELL, rather than using a conversational volume.  And because bars are places you go to talk to others or to hear music, and NOT TO HEAR ONE-SIDED…

I can’t wait to be excoriated for this, but I have a rule. If a friend calls me to chat when they’re obviously out and about, I say “Go be with the people you are with and call me when you have nothing to do. Bye!” No, I’m not going to hold on while you say Hi to those folks who are passing or while you place your…

Remember, kids - if you have an anime avatar, your opinion doesn’t matter!

You are not an intelligent person and no one values anything you have to say.

In this case funding is irrelevant, no matter how bad it was, nobody, and I mean nobody, can convince me that they couldn’t have found enough resources to keep THE highest profile prisoner in the US alive. As someone recently said, you’d be considered a conspiracy theorist if you did not think his death was extremely…

‘Small Gubmint’ Republicans seem to not understand the consequences of under-funding everything. You wind up being dangerously understaffed, whether we’re talking the criminal justice system, the child welfare system or the air traffic controllers system.

Most people’s preferences are wrong.

It’s a breakfast restaurant. That means lots of eggs, a food which individuals have HIGHLY variable tastes in terms of salt and pepper. We’re not talking about seasoning composed dishes, we’re talking about how you like your eggs. Everyone has their own preference.

“Other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?”

Considering how many times I’ve seen people grab the salt shaker and pour loads of salt on already salty fries, I’m gonna say seasoning is in the tongue of the be-taster. See also: people who order steak well-done.

This stupid fucking Stewart column is the epitome of burying the lede. If your interview subject WANTS to talk about his crimes - the thing that he is most notorious for - why the FUCK would you keep veering away? Even if it’s just on background and you feel queasy about violating that agreement (which, please)...…

This isn’t a bad take - when they come bus the table, they could retrieve them as well, hopefully reducing loss.

How nice of them to season my meal perfectly for me personally! It’s amazing because I didn’t even tell them my preferences!

Ms. Waitress’s suggestions are all good ones. I’ll add my own:

Counterpoint: At least half the customers will add salt and pepper to their food automatically without ever even tasting it to see if it needs it. Also, it always needs more salt. A chef’s refined palate, trained to identify flavors and flavor interactions, is not going to be the same as Joe Public’s tastebuds which…

They could put signs on the table:
