I fully support this plan.

My fear is that making moronic statements won't keep them from getting elected in many cases. There are too many people who are too apathetic to do anything about it, even just to vote. There are a lot of people who will vote a party, no matter how stupid or bat shit insane the candidate is.

I enjoyed reading this immensely. It's nice to see an actual thought-out analysis, not just throwing up whatever's been fed to you and pointing at it.

I may have to temporarily disable my Firefox add-on that changes all Youtube comments to "herp derp" just to see that.

Thank you, Baskervillain{ess} for making me completely lose my shit laughing. At some point tonight, I will definitely be referring to my husband's penis as a pink vagina dagger.

Fasting, for me, doesn't really seem to help me lose weight because I fasted, but because it's an interruption in my horrible eating habits. I pay more attention to what I'm doing afterward because of that break.

Thanks, Lindy! This has reminded me to steal my mom's tomorrow when I go visit. She never uses it, and now that I'm got a husband who does the cooking thing, I actually will.

This makes me appreciate my < $400 wedding all the more.

A sociology professor of mine described cops as our society's attack dogs kept on a shoestring leash.

I haven't read the rules for these pools, but most of the public pools I've encountered have rules prohibiting regular clothing being worn in the water.

Ah, gotcha.

Is it me, or has his page been locked down?

My brain just stopped. This is beyond ridiculous.

It's more of a problem than you might think. It's making it more difficult for me to get a job in my chosen field. They aren't allowed to ask your age, so it's assumed that I'm very young, which is not often a plus.

Oh, absolutely agreed. There a few floating out there that seem to be more reasonable, but they're such a minority and, being reasonable instead of shouty and disconnected to the real lives of average Amercians, their voices are tiny in the cacophony of crazy we hear.
