The greatest version this song, my Sunday night gift to everyone...

You can’t just ignore the cultural power of The Christian Church in North America though. There is way more baggage attached to it then just a silly man in a robe chanting things and sprinkling water on a baby would imply devoid of context. While I agree that I don’t think he’s being as honest with himself as he…

My gut reaction at the time of "omg I hope they washed those clothes with cold water asap" may have been missing the bigger picture, but damn if it wasn't accurate

I *really* want to laugh at this bullshit, but I'm immunocompromised so fuck Becky with the full cup.

yeah exactly. This read like somebody just dabbing their already prepared food with all these sauces. Sambal Oelek, for example, is a great sub for copious amounts of minced garlic if you’re doing a stir fry or in a marinade. And Gochujang is basically a mothersauce and condiment for Korean cooking (Korean Miso…

2019 word of the year: treason. I’m 57 and I’ve never heard that word bandied about with such frequency and misunderstanding.

When people stop dying of old age, I’ll be the first in line to stop being anxious of people at or above the average expected human lifetime taking on critical positions of authority.

Not mentioned, and relatively brief, but I liked the stuff with Arkham in Gaiman and mcKean’s Black Orchid. 

“ ... the asylum is renamed the Arkham Home For The Emotionally Troubled, and Miller uses it to dig into the psychology of the Joker, to show how well-meaning support can end up contributing to the very criminality it’s trying to diminish.”

This is a very generous interpretation of Miller’s writing.

“It’s a…

I had a kid in middle school ask a substitute teacher call him “Dick” which she refused. Because she knew his name was Brad. And he was being a stupid kid trying to make the teacher look stupid. So, yes, go forth and take a stand against dumb kid pranks!

Literally think of this movie at least once or twice a month because it was my first exposure to Blondies “One Way or Another” as sung by Angelica.

Seriously, how hard is it really to NOT be an intentional asshole?

They are at great risk of personal embarrassment by making the faux pas of assuming someone’s gender incorrectly! I mean, thankfully this child erred on the side of masculinity, which is always the correct thing to do in the case of any confusion, but this teacher could still have seemed less than authoritative in…

Also these groups tend to be little more than “concerned citizen” middle to upper class White women who also tend to be “I’m not homophobic but” types.

If you had a student with a very ethnic name, then out of laziness or racism you instead called them “oogabooga” even after being told by administration to knock it off and call them by their name, you’d get fired too.

Dr Says, “Chopping off your own hand is fine (if chopping off your whole arm is the alternative).

About 13 years ago I was a smoker looking to quit. E-cigs seemed like a way for me to have the physical sensation of smoking which I missed with nicotine gum or a patch. At that time e-cigs came in graduated nicotine levels INCLUDING ZERO NICOTINE. The fact that Juul refuses to offer a zero nicotine product says to…

As a tool to quit smoking or just an less dangerous alternative to tobacco, vaping is good. But it is quite frankly disgusting that companies like Juul are actively profiting from getting kids addicted to nicotine and I won’t feel the least bit sorry if these laws cause Juul to crash and burn.

I also dislike the fact…

It would just be some Twitter bullshit. A sample “letter from the front.”

He-s a liddle idiot.
