Police are actually required to stand by until the fire department comes, they can only intervene if a life is on the line. Otherwise, don't expect them to go rushing over to put any fire out.

1. Fuuuuuck.

Attention Ferguson Police Department.

The hell of it is, even if this was an accident and they tried to put the fire out immediately (unlikely, IMO) there's no way that anyone would believe them at this point.

Some of our police cars are equipped with an emergency kit that includes a fire extinguisher

I don't think anyone would need to dump fuel to get the gasoline smell and acceleration; I'm pretty sure whatever synthetic fibers were used for the stuffed animals would work just fine.

I would watch David Fincher's OK Killer or Plenty of Flesh or eHarmony Hunter or The Match.com Murders. I would watch a lot of David Fincher stuff, OK?

I'm pretty sure this Friday is 9/26, NOT 9/27, and I know because I was supposed to host a housewarming party on Friday but I specifically moved it to the 27th so I could watch this.

I saw this live and it was AMAZING. They did a fantastic job staging it and hearing the score with a full orchestra and chorus was incredible - particularly for me, since the other time I saw Sweeney Todd was in the incredibly stripped down production with Michael Cerveris and Patti Lupone where the cast played their…

I'm embarassed to say that in the years of hearing Jezebel clarify they are "not a feminist website" while reading dozens of articles here decrying the fact that women with a platform distance themselves from the term, the utter hypocrisy never occurred to me. Great point.

Gather 'round kittens, Auntie RockyMay is gonna break off a little knowledge ...soooooo back in the 70's there was a dance troupe called The Lockers and they...yes you guessed it...they Popped n' Locked. Come closer, cuz this is the kicker; one of the co-founders is a white woman (she's in top row on the left) by the…

I hate to be a snarktopus on a well done article like this, but... If Jezebel can deny that it is an explicitly feminist site (esp. When they use it as an excuse to do patently unfeminist things), then what right does this site have to bust others for doing the same??

My entire point is that we are increasingly seeing the easily outraged criticize people for simply "partaking in or admiring somebody else's culture and traditions". The "hypothetical perfect world" I referenced was in response to this specific mindset - as in according to the logic deployed by some, the only way to…

I'm guessing you're not a popper (what they're doing is popping, with some waves, robot and dimestops thrown in, I didn't see any locking). Popping was created in the hoods of LA, Sacramento, Fresno, Stockton and San Jose in the late 70s. While most of the OGs of popping are black and Latino, there are also notable…

No, it isn't. Columbusing refers to when white people falsely claim to have discovered or invented something. These two dancers make no such claims.

Having dozens of children come across the table when I worked in pathology- I can tell you that every single one is given the utmost respect and kindness.

A long, long time avo my baby died.in utero. Your excellent piece of writing made me cry, yet feel at peace with letting the hospital cremate her. After 32 years, I finally know what happened to her and I am at peace with it. Thank you for thus.

Yeah, guys - it was just a joke!

You lose credibility when you attempt to argue that the word threat only means credible threat. He threatened it. You don't think the threat was credible, and you may have a point (although his later "I'm going to come to your place of business" tweet undermines your position), but that doesn't erase the threat.

I feel like you should have your adult card (seeing rated R movies, buying alcohol, voting, that sort of thing) revoked when you say things like, "My daddy knows some pretty important people."
