Yep. I work out and am very strong. I have a very strong core. Unfortunately, I love food and I LOVELOVELOVE beer and tacos and pizza and chocolate cake. And I’m always hovering around 17% body fat. No beer belly, but I’ll never have an underwear model’s stomach. I’m cool with that.

I can’t put into words how I feel about all of these assholes anymore without getting a visit from the po-po. But, broadly speaking, fuck these people.

In the commercial one of the ‘bullies’ is dangling a limp, soggy fry on the other kid’s head and I thought, “Yep, that’s about right.”

Only to people (like me, and presumably you) who are primed to think badly of him. Norah O’Donnell, Charlie Rose, and the rest of the CBS news crew could barely get Kelly’s dick out of their mouths long enough to say something about it.

No. It’s really very cool. This isn’t academic or critical discourse, it’s garbage. Garbage earns no respect.

As a college professor, I’m really confused by the arrangements made by the campus. Can anyone fill me in? If this event were to happen at my large public university, it would be open to any and all press, and the university police (and local and state police if needed) would be doing security. So exactly what does it…

Hannibal Lector full face mask or gagball?

Does it go nowhere? Them’s my favorite kind.  

Agreed. I’d prefer it if they just said, “I don’t think this is important enough to be endlessly reported on. Let it go. There are more important stories that should be covered.” Or, “This is only important because the mainstream media doesn’t like Trump. Otherwise this kind of infighting wouldn’t even be news.” Fine.…

Also, define “fabricate.” For my conservative relatives and friends, “fake news” means “Tillerson calling Trump a moron shouldn’t be a 24/7 news story,” not, “it didn’t happen.”

Put that way, it truly was a bad play on Trump’s part. But he just can’t help himself.

You know they moved it about 10 months ahead of schedule right? And they had to change cities to do that.

Wow. I think you are the biggest piece of shit on the interwebs today. Congrats!

Agreed. And I would add (from my own shitty experience): if they ask you what you think of their significant other, don’t be honest. To quote Admiral Akbar, “It’s a trap!” They will always pick the significant other.

Richard Nixon committed treason to win the White House. Ronnie Raygun sold arms to a state sponsor of terror and sworn enemy of the United States in order to fund guerrillas who ran drugs to the United States.  

I hear you, but the alternative to politics-as-usual shouldn’t be enshrining corporate practices, which have also, to borrow your phrase, been “fucking over the citizens of this country without lube” since time began.

“And Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, who looks like he’s kept alive by being injected each morning with the fingernail clippings of Dallas-area orphans.”

A game of Connect Four?

I hear what you’re saying, but I think it’s a no-win scenario for everyone. I don’t know if you’ve ever put on a large event, or been part of a large conference, but this thing is going down, strike or no. An event with 1,100 attendees (both domestic and international) isn’t going to cancel over a labor dispute. My…

That’s what I was wondering about, too. In the event that they bring their own food and bev people to staff the event, then there’s a real issue. On the other hand, they may have already outsourced it as part of their contract with Northwestern.
