That’s Jon Ronson. He’s written about spending a weekend w/ Alex Jones infiltrating Bohemian Grove and about lots of other conspiracy nuts & racists. I wasn’t offering it as a defense of Jones. Hard to use someone as your defender when that person writes books where he tries hard to understand why you’re so fucking…

The application for everything bagels alone makes this a valued addition to any work space.

You don’t believe that a meatball or eggplant parm sub should be toasted?

Is it not possible for them to increase that draw to fairly compensate their workers without depleting the entire fund? Yes, it would slow the endowment’s overall growth, but it seems morally dubious to rest potential gains on the…

Too small! Fuck you and your “too small.” Was Henry Winkler “too small” to be The Fonz? Was the Shelby Cobra “too small” to be a bichin automobile (I assume)? Was Yersinia pestis too small to kill a few million old-timey jerks? They were not.

Why do they need to instruct the purchaser on how to wear all these very basic items of clothing? Is it because said shopper is currently browsing the website in a bathrobe with tissue boxes on his feet?

How often does your coworker bring up the various types of military buffnesss?
