Don't be oversimplifying the situation! Many of them have convictions for non-racially motivated crimes as well!

I wonder if the radio there won't be playing "There is a light that never goes out" for a while.

Is everyone else really using iTunes that much that it's just me who as the inconvenience of clicking through there to get to the actual podcast websites?

It doesn't always work like that. But it may not be as obvious to people who spend less time than I do hanging out at prison bus stops.

I'll just put this here because I was showing my coworkers how to tell a good joke referring to my personal life, and I think they failed to appreciate it:

It's the one situation where it is never very questionable to say: "Let's not make this about race."

Now I almost feel like I should get a Twitter account, because I am a disturbed individual who has actually said things IRL such as: "Actually, they do have techniques practiced with a bokken, but those only come in at brown belt level and higher".

"That's true, we're so lame!" etc., but here are some additional White Girl Problems:

"Can people just stop being obsessed with me? #whitegirlproblems"

I don't have a place-able accent, but I think the one Slovak accent involved answers your question.

I had this weird moment with a guy yesterday when I my usual quick-to-judge self and was like "god, please don't link to some joke rap song as your point of reference for the genre after I've mentioned that Hell Hath No Fury is one of my favorite albums", that ended up with us finishing Clipse verses the other started…

Speaking of the faults of others, I just hope that after Ramadan the guy who's closer being to the head of the project I'm working on doesn't change his opinion on how many times a week it is appropriate for me go play squash during work hours (today I was told I do not need to limit myself to twice a week).

And it didn't help that she was introduced in an episode where Dave Foley's appearance reminded us all of the fragile and slowly disintegrating nature of our lives.

And they apparently don't have very good reading comprehension either if they feel they need to point this out.

This isn't something that would bother most people (and not close to the worst thing about this episode), but goddammit they could have researched a bit what a Finnish accent sounds like, especially for a recurring character. The sing-songy, talkative style might work if they'd given her a Swedish name (here's an…

There are places where, if you hang around in a sleazy enough crowd for long enough, you can sell debts you are owed to people called torpedos, who'll use force or at least the threat of it to get whatever they feel like from the person owing the money. It's a pretty similar business model when you think about it. The…

I'm glad if the characters are still good in this new season, as that's what makes the show unique. And I like the non-character of Jeremy, it fits the perspective of the show and reflects a type of person you don't really see in more male-centered shows, where a male villain of that type may not be sympathetic, but…

My supervisor at my old job, a woman a bit under 40, once joked about the caffeine dispenser at the office "This coffee machine requires more maintenance than a woman!" (which is almost funny in a Norm Macdonald style). She also asked me why my boyfriend couldn't get me a job. Another of the few women at that office…

It's used, but the only way the World Health Organiztion says anyone is allowed to do that is if the patient is unconscious for the whole thing and most of their body isn't even convulsing. So when someone is getting the treatment, it just looks like the person is asleep with one of their hands twitching a little.…

I believe we can also read your thoughts.
