He and his wife get their money back, and the school is out tens of millions of dollars. This isn’t justice. This is a fucking travesty for the school.

Not content to talk down to me in our own conversation, now you have to follow me to other conversations to take a cheap shot? And you accused me of being a troll?

It’s adorable that you think someone’s going to ban me.

Hey “sweetie”, you’re the one that conflated someone laying out fashion tips with fucking communism... so... yeah. Have a grand day, indeed. Hopefully by the end of it you’ll have found some perspective.

I have very sensitive eyes. If someone tells me I can’t wear sunglasses at an outdoor funeral - even on a moderately bright day - I literally can’t attend that funeral.

For as long as people have cared about appearances - which is pretty much since we started settling down in villages instead of roaming - there have been people that have defined fashion norms.

Ligatures are little bits of flair that, for example, connect letters when they’re side by side. In many fonts, when you put a lower-case f next to a lower-case i, they get connected (by the bar of the f) when ligatures are turned on.

Because clearly I was being totally serious and I think that Alton freakin’ Brown should be using a shitty thermometer.

Thanks! Looks like Amazon has it for $19 right now.

Vixen would have been a fantastic founding member in the New 52. Love her.

Great advice, thank you!!

I know, sadly LOL

Oh, absolutely!

Someday I want to see a celebrity person like this recommend a tool I can afford. A $95 thermometer? I’m sure they’re great, but I think I have to stick with my $5 thing from the grocery store lol

He’s got a past where he could be dismissed as a token and a possible future where that accusation could happen again.
