Penis!

OMG How dare Harry's parents treat him like that after what he did! Don't they know he's a Nice Guy(tm)?

i mean, i was thinking more of the beef tongue, falaf and balut — but both aspic and baked beans are from france and england, originally. I mean, we could talk about what makes food american, and what that even means. that's actually an interesting thing — but this list of "ew yucky gross food" is weird. also wrong.…

let's list foods from other places and cultures and think it's gross. neat idea.

I am not an Armstrong apologist, but it bears repeating that (1) every cyclist who was competitive with Armstrong in the TDF during his 7 wins was most certainly doping as well and (2) he is absolutely correct that many of the brands that sponsored him (esp. Trek) were fundamentally transformed as companies due to the…

See the problem here is that you're assuming way too much, like that the author knows a single thing about food and history and isn't just some smug contrarian who learned how to google "icky food" and has no real idea how to construct an interesting column. But this is the kind of writing you get when hiring someone…

I'm not sure where the line between comedy and cultural superiority is in this post…While I understand that a lot of people probably have a problem with Balut, it's cultural and it seems a little chauvinistic to call it "Gross"

Well, you know the saying: if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and talks like a duck, then it's probably a serial rapist.

If we were just talking about racism against Native Americans (or First Nations, as they call them in Canada,) our neighbor to the north would deserve a place. Canada likes to pretend it wasn't awful to Natives, but oh my, was it.

Your post is rife with stupid.

When you say "no one cared" that your private liberal arts school had a fraternity that openly displayed the confederate flag.... well... I am pretty sure a lot of people did care. Maybe they didnt speak out about it in public, and didnt want to be "that person that causes trouble", but it is a not-subtle symbol, and…

How about an image of a southern plantation owner whipping his slaves? Or perhaps a nice image of a lynching? Or maybe, a picture of Robert E. Lee surrendering, like the gutless coward he was.

Germans can have national pride too but that doesn't mean they should start putting swastika stickers on their cars. That flag, whether you like it or not, is a symbol of a horrific past for a large chunk of our population.

Nope, no pervasive sexism on the internet.

Scientology is too mainstream. If Portlanders were gonna join a cult it would probably be Est, Hare Krishna, or something else suitably-vintage.

You do realize there is the flagship Scientology boarding school just outside of Portland, right? Maybe you should tell them Portland doesn't like em.

Given his reference to hard and soft no on a different thread (I believe the one where he's engaged by LaurensJam (http://kotaku.com/you-are-talkin…), he just might.

If she lets him then she let him.

I kind of wonder how some people can (rightly) vilify Clarence Thomas and support Anita Hill whilst simultaneously loving Bill Clinton and demonizing the women who came forward about his "alleged" abuses.

Either you're restricting yourself to a very narrow window of feminist media/opinions or you're looking for reasons to feel excluded. The rest of the world orbits around the wonder of thinness. Feminist spaces try to orbit around the wonder that is being happy in your own skin regardless of what shitheels say; that…
