That’s not the story. The story is that the FBI is investigating a new batch of Clinton emails. The details of Weiner’s scandal are incidental to the story. And that’s why I began by asking you if you’d ever heard of him; all you need to know is that he was busted for texting pictures of his dick to a 15-year-old.

This is why I travel with a backpack that fits under the seat for carryon, and nothing else. In the event I need to get up and get out in a hurry, it takes literally no extra time to grab the top handle as I’m standing up and take it with me. No fucking around with overhead bins; you couldn’t pay me to put my stuff in

No, I’m suggesting that if you’ve heard of Anthony Weiner, if you know what he had been busted for, then “sending dong shots to a 15-year-old” shouldn’t have confused you. He wasn’t sending pictures to a 15 year-old sofa, or a 15 year-old car, or a 15 year-old coffee mug. It was a 15 year-old human child.

Is this the first time you’ve heard of Anthony Weiner?

This right here is going to be the impetus for people riding to D.C. after Hillary gets elected. People like the Bundys are going to see that they can get away with this, and they’re going to load up their guns, and they’re going to head to Washington. And when asked about it later, after the shots have been fired,

“We”

You’re right, I haven’t used them. I’m just the guy that gets the phone calls from his friends and family to fix the goddamn things when they break and all I can do is tell them to buy another one because they’re designed to be disposable.

I’m not so sure about that. I read a statistic recently that said that even with a hostile Congress, Obama was able to fulfill (or compromise enough to be considered a win) 70% of his campaign promises. And that’s actually really good - that’s about what most presidents achieve.

Semi-professional designer. Current situation is a MacBook Pro and a dumb Intuos pen tablet. Works for me.

Weird how creative professionals got along without touchscreens for so long.

Buying new? Cheapest MacOS computer is $499.

So, the thing that looks like the iMac - oh, sorry, it also has a touchscreen, as if that matters - starts at three grand.

I read the comments before watching the video, and I thought you might have been exaggerating, but holy shit... no, the cameraman absolutely zoomed right in on her chest at the end.

Major League Baseball appreciates the concerns of those that find the name and logo of the Cleveland Indians to be offensive. We would welcome a thoughtful and inclusive dialogue to address these concerns outside the context of litigation. Given the demands for completing the League Championship Series in a timely

I’m honestly surprised it doesn’t happen more often at stadiums around the country. Drunk fans plus railings that honestly don’t provide that much protection... I’m surprised.

It’s an old-timey thing. You have to say that sentence in your grandest King Arthur voice.

That is literally the reason for the existence of the House. The Senate exists so that California can’t roll over Rhode Island whenever it damn well pleases.

and, to top it all off, we have a body called the Senate which gives two representatives to each state regardless of population, so that each citizen of Rhode Island and Wyoming is afforded many times the political power of citizens of New York and California.

Any adult with good sense who wants a hug from anyone - not just a kid - asks. A simple, “Hey, can I have a hug?” And if there’s even a hint of reluctance, any adult with good sense backs down. And any adult with even a modicum of personality can handle the rejection without making the person who said no feel like
