When a reality-TV star got elected to the highest office in the land, pop culture became politics and politics became pop culture. Try to keep up.

Ohh dude, it’s sooo easy.

Dismiss away bud, if it makes you feel like a tough guy.

I’m not sure if you are failing to understand me or if you just have a high-sodium diet. But hey, I’m bored so I’ll try to explain it again and I’ll try to be courteous (whether you deserve it or not).

The attention span of the American Media Engine is decaying like unstable radioactive material; the half-life just gets shorter and shorter the further we go on. last week the media told us that guns were the worst thing in the world, and the week before that it was hurricanes and climate change. This week the worst…

I’m not sure I understand your criticism of when to make jokes about current events. Isn’t the time to do that when the events are still, y’know, current?

Yeah, that’s true. I usually only grabbed one or two things, with one notable exception. I had requested a day off at one point, and because my manager was a dipshit he forgot to change the schedule. Because I was a wimp, I let him talk me into coming in to work my shift anyway even though I didn’t get any sleep the…

When I was in high school I also worked a crappy fast food job, but instead of McD’s it was Dairy Queen. Unfortunately, we never had anything worth stealing (making myself and sometimes my friends a free blizzard at the end of each shift didn’t count).

As pathetic as it is, they could probably make serious bank selling them on eBay.

True, that isn’t the same thing. However, it does indicate that opinions on it vary along a spectrum, instead of what we’ve been taught our whole lives about “traditional” marriage - that cheating is the Worst Thing Ever and it will destroy your marriage and your life forever. As far as I’m concerned, that idea is an…

Yeah, have to agree with that. A dalliance is one thing, but that guy led a whole double life for years. Regardless of whatever understanding he mayor may not have with his wife, he treated the LW like garbage. People should just be honest with each about what they want, it would save so much harm in the long run.

The subject hasn’t really come up, but I doubt it. Well, hm, maybe. At least two or three of the couples from my extended group of friends have come out as poly in the last decade, and at least one (that I know of) started off as a “traditional” couple.

My wife has told me, on multiple occasions, both drunk and sober, that if I ever were to stray she wouldn’t want to know about it (I have not, btw. I know some guys would take this as “permission” to run out and fuck some 19-year-old ASAP, but that’s not me. Still happy to be with her - just celebrated our 10 year…

Bye!

It was difficult transitioning from having two kids to three kids, mostly because of the ratio of adults to children on an outing. One to one is fine, then everybody has a kid they are mostly “keeping an eye on”. But with three - if they take off in three different directions, there is literally no way to chase them…

I am a (mostly) stay-at-home dad, and it is not at all uncommon for random people to give me props when I’m out with all three of my girls. But the thing is, as far as I’m concerned, they’re pretty easy to take care of since they’re kind of an indivisible unit. The oldest are twins and the youngest in only about 15…

If only it were that easy...

You are pretty much spot on with Valerian. The visuals were... beyond gorgeous, just indescribable in some parts. The plot was loopy, but I expected that going in to a Luc Besson film. However... the actors were just plain terrible. No chemistry between the romantic leads at all, they didn’t convince me of their…
