I love it, but what do I know?

I think it would have been funnier if they'd done the scene with the turbulence in the plane.

I like the term (and concept) "percussive maintenance," of which the 6-inch technical drop is one form.

I don't obsessively check to see if there's new content, I obsessively check to see if I have new upvotes or replies.

Never heard of it before. It's fantastic.

The article says "There’s no word on who was piloting the plane at the time of the crash, although inclement weather has been pointed to as the cause," and it quotes the news release as saying "Further details are not available at this time."

I live in Austin, where Lance lives, and I have a friend whose husband is a serious cyclist. He used to go on training rides with Lance. He said he knew for years that Lance was using PEDs, and the other training partners all knew as well, and they were all amazed at how long he got away with it.

I think he's gorgeous, for a cyborg. If you like that sort of thing.

We're not communicating at all.

Neil Diamond.

Ok, so my joke was all over the map, it wan't funny, and it didn't convey what I was trying to say.

You turned into Camille Paglia so slowly I hardly noticed.

… you'd have enough money to move all your stuff over to a different website.

The figure most often cited when I was in college (in the '80s) was 1 in 4. So I have no problem believing that it's only dropped to 1 in 5 in 30 years.

I don't mean to criticize you too harshly, but the fact that you felt you needed to include "And this isn't an ambiguous case, she said she remembered saying 'no, no, no' as it happened" makes me sad. It's an indication that you, unfortunately and probably without realizing it, have bought into part of the rape

I have a friend whose husband molested her daughter then committed suicide. I have a friend whose brother was murdered. I know a woman whose granddaughter was kidnapped. I know several women who've had abortions.

The operative word is "fantasy." If a woman fantasizes about being raped, she is in complete control of what happens.

Well duh, everybody knows that "funny" girls are fat and ugly and can't get laid. Rapists only like slim, sexy women, so the "funny" girls aren't at risk, so it's ok for them to joke about rape.

Well, if he weren't so chubby …

Rap and hip-hop artists did not pioneer misogyny in popular music. Led Zeppelin is my favorite band, and one of their songs includes the line "the soul of a woman was created below" ("Dazed and Confused" from "The Song Remains the Same," 1969).
