I will agree first that these are indeed concentration camps. But if you’re saying the “only” difference between these camps and the Nazi camps is lack of executions, I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and presume you’re being disingenuous.

“There’s just this pervasive attitude that people who ride bicycles are scofflaws, they’re a pain in the ass, that they need to be placated but not really taken seriously ... The streets are fundamentally not just unfriendly, but hostile.”

So what’s your excuse for nobody picking goulash, hmmmm?

So, had I been in this draft, French Onion and Gumbo would have been my first two picks, easy.

Fuckin Richie Rich over here never had a soup sandwich growing up.

Beer cheese soup is just a vat of liquid cheese without the nutritional pretense of broccoli cheese soup.

First, while hatred isn’t a “reasonable” response to oppression, it’s common enough to think that it might be a natural human reaction. That doesn’t make it a good or defensible thing, of course.

“Chicago: parking fees are insane and my dear tourists, if you are not driving into the city do not bother renting a car. Parking downtown for two hours easily hits $50.”

Yes, the turtle was cleaned and dressed. Snapping turtle is somewhat popular where I grew up. Nobody there would look at you sideways if you said you were frying a turtle.

No, I give away all my best work for free on The Takeout.

LOL!

We were somewhat uncultured hillbillies, I imagine that would answer some of your questions.

I guess I just fundamentally disagree with the notion that student loan debt isn’t something students should be responsible for. I didn’t want a lot of student loan debt, so I went to a community college with an excellent transfer program for 2 years, then transferred to a state university where I could get in-state…

Not a roommate - this is my brother. Apparently, he was at home alone, and he decided he wanted to cook a turtle he caught. His chosen method was light breading and pan frying in garlic infused olive oil. I don’t really know what happened, all I know is that in the middle of pan frying this turtle, he just left the…

As a Cubs fan who takes every opportunity I can to crap on St. Louis (and they deserve all the crap they get), I can’t crap on toasted ravioli. They’re pretty great. I don’t get comparing them to mozzarella sticks, unless they’re cheese ravioli I guess. I’ve only ever had the meat/sauce filled ones, and they’re great.

I’m not knocking those breweries or implying that they only brew hazies. They may legitimately belong in the discussion for “best brewery in America.” I can’t say one way or the other, because I haven’t had too much from any of them.

CNN is reporting that this is a lie.

Could you call it “50 Shades of Orange” and not have too many people assume it’s about the President?

Yes, technology makes it easier for people to live in a bubble, but there’s also an argument that increasing amounts of information makes it easier for people to be ignorant. If information is too complicated or takes too much effort to digest (as most scientific information is), then many people are more likely to go…

I only ate someone else’s food once, and I think I was justified. A guy put a slice of pie in my mini-fridge on Friday and said he would be back to get it. On Monday (3 days later), he still hadn’t picked it up. I asked him when he would be stopping by, and he said Tuesday. On Tuesday, he said he would get it Thursday,…
