Or nicely asking a airport terminal restaurant/fast food joint if you can get some ice and water from their soda fountain with an obvious (big mouth type) empty bottle. Works every time and way easier than worrying about defrosting anything.  

All of this does explain why CBS’s line up sucked so badly for the last 20 years. I watched a couple seasons of CSI, but other than that, I cannot think of a single show that I have watched on that network since the turn of the century.

You’re allowed to say the word shit here. As in “Barry doesn’t care about treating people like shit.”

It is absolutely crazy to me that TV (shows, not the news) has now become something that is dictated by politics. The fact that they want to move more into “Red state programming” is fucking terrifying when you start to think about what that means. What defines red states at this point, apart from the anti-women and…

Why is this better than just taking an empty bottle (or chugging the one you have) and filling up on the other side of security? Most large US airports I’ve been to have bottle fillers, that dispense cool filtered water. I keep a collapsible water bottle rolled up in my backpack. I never have to fill and freeze it and…

Which means a racist like Trump losing his liquor license over a law like this one would be delicious irony.

This is funny and all, but these sorts of laws were enacted to keep undesirables like the blacks and the Irish from holding liquor licenses. 

IIRC Smith did mention some kinda “casting couch” joke.

I know it is one of the lesser dumb things this idiot tweeted, but that:

I don’t think it’s that shocking that Trump would consider 3,000 dead Puerto Ricans a success.

I do think it’s shocking that the President of the United States has this opinion.

He didn’t know that Puerto Rico counted as part of the US until they told him, and I’m sure he forgot about it afterward more than once.

Oh, this is the giant spider guy?!?!?!  That’s hilarious!  And also gross.

Hi Barry! Thanks for letting us all know that you don’t give a shit about workers! Cool stuff!

What are the countries with the highest standards of living and lowest levels of crime and recidivism? Northern European countries with sentences that are shorter than a lot of other countries, no death penalty, and ‘cushy’ prisons that are more focused on rehabilitation than punishment. Look at the justice system in…

I understand that if it were up to the victim (and, I’m sure, many more), who is understandably traumatized, this person would never be released. But she’s served her entire sentence - what more can you ask for at that point? She served all 15 years of it (possibly more from what I can tell).

Thanks for that explanation.

That’s fine, I just think most people’s issue is that 15 years seems really inadequate for what she actually did.

FO with your reading comprehension. We want outrage.

Lawyer comment for anyone wondering WTF. Apparently the statutory maximum sentence for kidnapping in Utah is 15 years, and the authorities opted to give her credit for time served since her arrest in 2002, which isn’t unusual.

Wait. From what I’m reading, she’s not being released early - she’s being released at the end of her sentence, which is on time. They had miscalculated the time - this was when she was actually supposed to be released in the first place because she was given a concurrent (not consecutive) sentence, and they mistakenly …
