Yep, that’s what my parents did too (well, by around 10 or so anyway - I don’t think they were giving 4-year-old me sips). Ditto my grandfather’s cigars. Basically didn’t drink until college (where, to be fair, I made up for lost time).

Um yeah, they were pretty liberal about spending money on exclusive TV rights to events.

The people paying them probably do, given that’s where the money to pay them with comes from.

Equal pay why? Do they generate equal revenues? If yes, then fine. If no, then you’re a bloody communist.

One of the many ways men are privileged over women is they don’t deal with the same constant bombardment of the-not-quite-Ponzi-scheme-but-somehow-even-more-awkward LulaRoe/Scentsy/Roden+Fields/body wrap sales pitches from high school classmates on Facebook.

What country is only 10,000 meters across? Vatican City?

‘St. Paddy’s,’ not ‘St. Patty’s.’

First thing I came down here to say. Oatmeal described this perfectly.

There is no mystery here, he failed to cut weight and got dehydrated and they took him to the hospital. When he got there they probably immediately put him on an IV which meant he would not be able to make weight. Fight cancelled.

It isn’t even a question necessarily of underfunding so much as overestimating the gains.

Excessive fees and under-funding are major issues. We also have to address unsustainable pay outs that are great for those currently receiving payments, but further destabilize pensions.

Again, you can’t just plow into a goalie, but it sure looks like Eakin tried his best to hug the boards to avoid contact in the picture below. Also, the color guy is wrong when he says that he lifted up into the head of Lundqvist. Watch the replay starting at 34 seconds - the collision is what causes Eakin’s body to…

I have an 8 year old that I routinely lock out of the router so she can’t watch shit-ass YouTube videos on her laptop.

“I can’t get to the Internet!”
“Yeah, I locked you out for being a dick.”
“Dad-DEEEE!”
“Eat shit, pumpkin. This is a House of Laws.”

I turn the cell phone data off if the kid starts creeping over 3GB. I wasn’t watching one month, and she got in a whole 12GB. Thank Crom for roll-over data. And most wifi routers have dual channels. I give the kid the password to one, and have everything else run off the second. Then when she’s being a brat and…

Punishments for older Kids between 11-16 (have 11 and 16 yr olds)

Because, regardless of whether their “plans” were based in reality, relied on facts or, in fact, were even actual “plans” and not just slogans, one candidate went to rust belt and manufacturing towns and said “I’m gonna save your town, I’m gonna bring your jobs back and we’re gonna make America great again” while the…

Marginalizing people who did not go to college is not going to help the Democratic party, either.

Agreed. Intellectual arguments don’t matter to a person who’s struggling and didn’t go to college. These people aren’t too stupid to understand (they’re actually fairly smart) but they don’t have the luxury to think about it -- they just want change for the better for them asap. The struggling people who do have time…

I think they voted for “burn everything down,” which is a simpler way of saying they voted against the establishment.
