It’s also distinctly possible that he was rejected on a purely academic basis, just because Mark Meadows nominated him does not necessarily mean he was academically qualified. Not saying that he wouldn’t necessarily have failed the psych eval, just that I don’t have a hard time believing that someone who barely passed…

62 million people voted for Donald Trump. Stupid gullible people often confuse arrogant obnoxious assholes for bold leaders.

Guess what: I want you to look me in my fucking eyes when I say this; I really want you to look me in my eyes when I say this. We still have no idea. We have no idea.

My favorite version of this is when Republican fundraisers are asking for money so they can fight communism/socialism.

There are always people who enjoy watching assholes because it makes them feel vicariously powerful. He’s their id. He gets to be the loudmouthed fuckbags they wish they could be, if only they had the power and the platform to do the same.

He broke California law (and looked like a creep doing it), repeatedly fed his audience false conspiracies and has played much of it off as a joke. He honestly must know why he was banned. Otherwise he’s a massive idiot.

What? Chris has been a wonderful part of Kotaku. I need some got damn answers!

Highlight real much? You know from the site you’re currently on?

Pour one out for Chris Persons. The powers that be just canned him.

Honestly, the reason for the drop is probably far less interesting than how he’s been very successfully (read as: profitably) sensationalizing the whole thing.

It’s also a shit-fucking world where this clown is the one that gets to keep producing videos.  Fuck Spanfeller.  

It’s always funny (and sad) to see a bunch of poor people donate to a millionaire.

Guess you can’t keep a shit person down. I keep telling myself, “surely the people who still support this asshole are just kids.” And then that makes me feel simultaneously better and worse.

I was thinking this.
I don’t see a major or even minor EU or North American city on the list. This headline could have easily been “living in an developing nation that pollutes like its 1977 LA is bad for your health.”

Speaking as someone who plays and teaches drums for a living, I can attest to the awesomeness of this fill. Phil Collins has always been severely underrated as a drummer, because he’s such a poster child for sucky grampa rock, but dude could serve up a serious groove, and had chops to spare. 

Theres totally nothing creepy, shady or imperialistic in using a platform often used by children to whitewash a military force.

Kudos to her. The progressive wing of the Dem party is getting bigger with each election.

I’m a dual citizen. My mom is from Munich; she and my dad live near Nuremberg (my dad is a retired army soldier working on a base over there). The primary purpose of this trip, and any trip I take to Germany, is to spend time with them (though of course, I’m excited about this van trip, too).

Your addiction to old, broken cars has gone international.  

You may not realize it but the complaint made against you was the best thing that could have happened.

Except the F-35 program is like the electrician, plumber, and builder not talking to each other and building in stuff or fixing mistakes after the drywall is going up.
