The Port Chicago (California) explosion during WW2 is another horrifying one. Not as awful as the Halifax explosion, but still huge — one report said the fireball was two miles across.

Benjamin R Curtis, who the exploding ship was named for, was a US supreme court justice who dissented from and resigned in protest over the Dred Scott decision. Later he was one of president Andrew Johnson’s defense attorneys during his impeachment trial, arguing that it should be treated as a full judicial hearing…

Also, this 2-ton anchor from the Grandcamp was thrown over a mile and a half from the explosion, leaving a 10 foot crater.

I was under the impression that Comedy Central was exclusively a The Office marathon network.

“John Travolta is a deranged fanatic with bad hair—”

Now where could they have thought of that haircut?

Everyone but Data.  Joe taught him how to tell jokes.  Come to think of it, maybe that’s why it took another 6 years of episodes before he could feel emotions. 

She has been one of only seven Black female cast members over the course of 45 seasons.

I didn’t know WE were on Disqus. Are we back in 2014? Was Kinja just some kind of weirdo fever dream?

He was defending Michael Jackson and R Kelly back on Chappelle’s Show and nobody took it seriously then, and they shouldn’t take it seriously now. It’s a joke. Dave Chappelle doesn’t really think kids should be happy to be molested and if you honestly think he does then I don’t even know what to say. I’m not saying…

Abusers don’t universally abuse everyone they come in contact with. There are plenty of women Bill Cosby came in contact with who he didn’t rape. We’re more concerned with the 30-40 that he did. Why is this such a difficult concept to grasp?

Victoria Jackson

She was a terrible live performer. It was so bad that I don’t know why they kept putting her on. She was originally brought on as a writer and they shifted her to cast member when people got on Lorne for not hiring minorities so it makes sense that live performing wasn’t her strong suit. She did well with the filmed…

Good. She’s the only SNL cast member I’m never happy to see show up in a sketch. 

I suspect she stopped by Lorne’s office to tell him how much she loves to quilt but just blew her line.

Good for her. She’s very talented but, well to be frank, sketch comedy has clearly never been her forte, what with dropping lines/awkward delivery and cracking. So I applaud her for leaving there to pursue other avenues that wellI undoubtedly suit her better.

She was possibly the least versatile cast member in SNL history.

My mom had a herniated disk in her neck several years ago and the agony she was in constantly was indescribable. She couldn’t walk. She couldn’t eat. There was no comfortable position in which she could lay. Her only escape was taking pain medication that would knock her out cold. She tried to tough it out a few times…

It is not a sport for weak men. He never should have taken all that money if he knew he was just going to run away from the sport, with his tail between his legs, because he got a couple of booboos. Football is for real MEN and not these entitled CHILDREN who want their paychecks without giving it everything they…
