Wouldn’t work. Who’d buy a pack of cards consisting entirely of jokers?

I think that is the more important idea if this happened in the US. Not that stuff would be stolen, which is a reasonable assumption anywhere. No, it’s the idea that we would also go out of our way to wreck the store as well.

Um, no. No one here is defending Stephens’ views, we are simply pointing out the obvious: that the one who comes across as an idiot and rank amateur in this email exchange isn’t Stephens, it’s Kalaf. I mean, it takes a lot of dumb to make Stephens look like the reasonable adult in a situation and that’s exactly what…

I made the mistake (at work) of criticizing people who buy 100 plastic water bottles a week by saying how ridiculous and wasteful it was/is.

Um, it has nothing to do with Stephens’ bad views and everything to do with Kalaf expressing himself with the maturity of a 2 year old. What I can’t believe is his absolute lack of self awareness because I don’t know what he sees in the above exchange but all I see is Kalaf getting his ass handed to him, like Ka Mai…

OK, comics nerds, get to nerding: Are they just teasing a second, lower-budget Days Of Future Past riff with that Blink thing, or is there another storyline this Blink reappearance is queuing up?

My mom was a guest at a professor’s house. A fellow guest was determined once she saw black faces in her midst to hear an authentic negro spiritual. She excitedly asked my mom if she knew any “chants”. My mom could barely contain herself. From laughing. She replied “Gregorian ones”. My mom was raised Catholic.

I’d say while there is nothing objectively wrong with this article, it is also overly alarmist.  You can get away with almost everything in the article in moderation indefinitely with no problems.  The ones I would absolutely avoid would be fruit pits, bones, and raw meat.  Other than that, I’ve lived 40 years with…

Men have been wearing “dresses” for like, 95% of human history. For a bunch of idiots who long for the yesteryears of history they sure are absolutely clueless.

Wow, today I learned that we drive on the right side of the road as a preventative measure against drive-by decapitations. History is great!

It always bugged me that they were called musketeers but fought with swords all the time.

That has always bugged me about The Three Musketeers:  that there was 4 of them. 

That’s “Giving up Catholicism for Lent” level game right there. 

They were, and she famously didn’t know him and didn’t want to kiss him. He just grabbed her. She also wasn’t a nurse; she was a dental assistant.

Trump supporters aren’t even conservatives, they’re nihilist assholes.
