Taking my time on a drive across country.

First item on your Bucket List: Make a Bucket List.

When you live and work in an entitled bubble like these writers do it’s so very easy to be brave. In the real world you first learn the value of getting along. Then you learn that in the adult world the people are complicated and yes, flawed. But not everything, hell most things aren’t political, and it’s possible to…

I enjoy this in anticipation of the explosion of rage Jeets fans are gonna have when he fails to get 100% of the vote because of this. It will be GLORIOUS!

I agree, but not entirely. Which shows what a great movie this is. I mean yes he behaves terribly, but he’s not portrayed as a cartoonish villain like so many similar movies did in the era. It’s more that his behavior is typical, and that’s the most horrible part. A very nuanced take.

Yup. It wasn’t until Reagan was elected that the Religeous Right started becoming a political and social force.

16 Candles on line one!

How did we go from “Everyone deserves health insurance” to “People who have health insurance are entitled pricks” in under a decade?

Long ago Francesa started thinking he is just as important as the players he covers. That was long ago. Now of course he thinks he is far more important.

10am: What the fuck is this? I HATE it! How can they do this, it’s terrible! I’m gonna write the company, join a boycott, NEVER USE TWITTER AGAIN! But first I’ll just check my timeline.

How about doing it now and thus negating some very real investigations both criminal and civil that are ongoing? How about ruining the opportunity down the road of pursuing impeachment? Doing it with a stronger case and a more supportive public?

I propose a bracket style head to head format next debate. Five minutes each, winner moves on. Now we just need 3 judges American Idol style.

Better. Keep expanding the sample size. But even monthly averages in an area can’t tell an accurate picture. Simply variance means in any given year it can happen. Now expand it to say perhaps hundreds of areas? Even better. Of course yearly is the right direction, but really the only way to truly illustrate it is…

It was simply a matter of luck in that it was the furthest checkpoint passed before an act of god intervened. No perfect answer. Best bad solution available really.

People who use a specific point in time or an anecdote to deny global warming are idiots. People who do it to prove global warming are even dumber as they also give legitimacy to the former.

Particularly after he was called out for systemic abuses in his campaign LAST time. The hypocrisy Splinter is bending over backwards to excuse is breathe taking.

You are right to question polling, it’s right up there with witchcraft and astrology in legitimacy these days. But as we learned in 2016, it’s dangerous to assume it’s bias leans one way of the other.

One of the reasons why it’s taking so long to get him on field,  is that for some reason the training and medical staff are out of pain killers that could help speed his recovery.

This. You are either for it or against it. Making “exceptions” based on your own interests, no matter how evil you feel they are, only justifies others to do the same.

Basically Rich is demanding Tarantino make a completely different film than the one he made. He also criticizes it for not being like his previous films but then just a moment later says his earlier films suck too.
