40%?! You actually think 40% of voters are unaffiliated with a party and decide who they’re going to vote for 60 days before an election? I don’t know what fantasy world you’ve been living in, but that is not remotely the case. I know lots of people who lean Republican who didn’t vote for Trump or Clinton. But the…

My friend “hacked” our DOS-based computers so my friends and I could play games on there. We created a secondary class we could log into where we had access to programs that our main class did not. I’m not sure that we played the games all that much, but we felt like genius hackers.

I accidentally pulled a fire alarm in my college dorm when I was trying to figure out how the plastic cover came off. It looked like it was screwed into the wall. It was not. Luckily, I was right by the stairwell and no one saw me, so I walked briskly down the stairs and out the door and drove off just before the fire…

My friend and I true those little TNT Snap ‘n’ Pop things at them until one stopped and came back to yell at us.

I live in Trump country too. And the only people I know who got upset about that statement were people who supported Trump already. Honestly, why would anyone else get upset? She’s talking about Trump supporters specifically, not Conservatives in general. Do you honestly think she could have flipped some Trump…

“You know, just to be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. They’re racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic — you name it. And unfortunately there are people like that. And he has lifted them up. He has given voice to their websites that…

As I said in my other comment, there’s certainly an argument to be made that she should have been more careful and expected her words to be taken out of context. But I’m really tired of people pretending like they don’t understand hyperbole.

Not technically true. The pitching mound is 10 inches off the ground.

I disagree. I think it makes perfect sense in context. Should she have known it would get pulled out of context and used against her? Probably. But there’s nothing wrong or inelegant with what she said when viewed in the full context of the speech. Especially since she went on to talk immediately thereafter about the…

No. She made it clear in the statement that she didn’t mean it literally. The very first thing she said was, “To be grossly generalistic...” She then went on to specifically name the kinds of people she was talking about and speak highly of the other portion of his supporters who aren’t those people.

If you listen to the full statement in context, she was absolutely talking about the third group and the third group alone. But that’s not how Trump and his supporters spun it.

Kicking a man in the crotch to remove him as a threat is not sexual assault. Try again.

She was a teenage girl who had been repeatedly sexually assaulted by someone who called himself her friend while her other supposed friends looked on. You’re really going to complain that she didn’t respond in the most kind, rational way when pushed to the breaking point?

I was thinking something along the same lines. If you react to a news story as if it’s fact and then later find out it isn’t or may not be, backing off your initial assertion is the right thing to do. Jackasses tend to respond by saying, “Well, this time it may not be true, but I’m sure it happens” when they discover…

Nope. Not worth giving up ten years of my life (or potentially all of it if I get shivved by someone who thinks I’m a pedophile) for any amount of money.

Classic girl move. Back in our single days, I always tried to drill into my guy friends’ heads that “I don’t want to date anyone right now” is just code for “I don’t want to date you ever.” It’s not an invitation to continue pining or license to get angry when she finds someone she’s actually interested in.

For me, at least, it depends on the nature of the relationship beforehand. I’ve had relationships where we defined the relationship as dating early on because we were friends who knew each other well ahead of time. That wasn’t the case with my eventual wife though. We barely knew each other and hadn’t spent any time…

Yeah. Silver was one of the only non-Right Wing voices saying that Trump had a chance in the final months of the election and these assholes still shit on him.

Pick your poison:

Yeah. I know what you mean. The good thing is you have plenty of time to sort out whether a game is actually worthwhile or not. Plus, you can sometimes find panned games that end up being good once the bugs are fixed.
