On the other hand though, by “softening” a cult-classic like this, with all it’s references to homosexuality and transgendered life styles, maybe it normalizes it in a positive way?

I’ve heard the Starbucks v Dunkin’ Doughnuts debate many a time about coffee, but I stand firmly in the camp that Waffle House has the most delicious coffee in the United States, for what it is.

And yet, I still haven't gotten the thank you I deserve.

By the way, you're welcome for me pulling you out of the greys. Please kindly fuck off now.

Do you read threads or just hope to get out of the greys? You're about 3 days and 20 comments too late. Try again next time.

by the way, where the fuck do you live that has no roaches, but still has internet access? I’m guessing your mom’s basement in the barren tundras of like, Serbia.

“no roaches”: which is why you’re ignorant and have no dog in this race and your opinion holds no value whatsoever

Omg, go home.

Thank you random internet person! I love you.

Like, I know it’s a roach, but there is a reason certain ones have nicknames, and those nicknames come from certain traits. In this case, it’s a regional thing. That’s all. Like, I live in Greenville, and I’ve yet to see a Palmetto Bug since I moved from Charleston, but I’ve seen like, 3 other types of roaches. That’s…

I mean, that’s fine and all, but I’m sticking by the necessity of distinction in our terminology. Like, how many times have you heard a cockroach story (cause I feel like all us Southern folks have like, a million of them) but then to demonstrate the exact degree of YUCK factor, someone mentions something like “Oh, it…

1) I’m not a/your bro 2) you’re missing the fucking point: calling a specific type of cockroach a palmetto bug is an absolutely necessary distinction in certain areas of the country. Palmetto bug, or less commonly (but I know what the hell people mean when they call it this) known as a “water bug” BECAUSE IT LIVES…

You know what other type of cockroach lives in America? A German cockroach.

THANK YOU! I’ve been getting trolled over here because I’m trying to explain the difference between what is commonly known as a cockroach is like, 4 different things depending on the circumstances. German cockroaches are the type that typically infest homes, especially ones with older foundations. American cockroaches…

Yep. Good job.

Well, obviously yes, they belong to the same family, but the are not the same species. There are lots of types of cockroaches; some can fly, others cannot. A cockroach in a trashcan in Las Vegas is NOT the same as a water bug - aka palmetto bug - in Savannah. They are physiologically different. Points for knowing it…

False. There is a difference.

She must have either gone to CofC or USC. (I went to CofC. Those fucking things are no joke, and there IS a difference between a palmetto bug and a roach, despite what rslwn might say).

Interesting that you would mention their being called a palmetto bug without mentioning the very state that gave them the nickname, The Palmetto State, South Carolina. Also, I realize you didn’t write that, but it’s annoying nonetheless. My apologies.

Re: people who are not actually redheaded claiming they are redheaded - that shit is ANNOYING. I’m not even a redhead and it’s always annoyed me when people said that. I had auburn hair for a while (natural hue brown) and got asked out on an extremely boring date recommended by a mutual friend of ours and when I told…
