Someone get me in touch with this guy. I have inside information on a group that will allow me to name a star after him (he will get a document and a book documenting it has been recorded in the library of congress). The cost will be about the same as this, because of course, I have to pay the super secret…

The direction wouldn’t actually matter; you’re just opposing the force inflicted on one side of an object with the direct opposite. The only reason for it being diagonal is that you’re opposing force from two different directions at once.

I have greatly enjoyed watching Shani compete throughout the years and will continue to do so in this Olympics. However, there was a tie in voting(done by the athletes), the long established tie-breaker was a coin flip, he lost. I get being hurt by it, but you don’t boycott the ceremony over it. We have elections that…

Soooooooo, let me get this straight. Voting was tied, they flipped a coin to break the tie, he lost and he’s still upset? I’m assuming these procedures have been in place. Did he not read the fine print? Hasn’t he always been a whiner? Sorry for all of the questions.

I can’t really even go to psychopathic with it. It’s juvenile, it’s not high comedy- I get that we’re not talking about Moliere here- but it’s squarely in the category of hi-jinks. Inane, unfunny teenager hi-jinks, mildly gross hi-jinks, but hi-jinks none the same. So where’s the ‘Outrage!’? They discovered dead rats,…

I don’t agree with Trump or Pence’s stance on the National Anthem but this is apples and oranges.

He’s the more decorated athlete and the first black athlete to win a gold medal in an individual event at the Winter Olympics. She’s only won a bronze medal; however, she was the first American luger of either gender to win an Olympic medal in an individual event (which makes her a groundbreaker too). I believe she…

I get why he’s upset but I feel like that he’s being a bad sport. Part of being a great athlete is reacting with grace when losing a game (or in this case, not being chosen). He’s just making himself look like a spoiled entitled crybaby throwing a temper tantrum.

I’m surprised in reading these comments at how many people view a government shutdown as real legislative leverage. Remember 2013, when the Republicans were the minority party and they shut down the government over funding Obamacare? They shuttered the government for 17 days and got nothing for it but bad press - the…

That is an ice cream cone. The local Dairy Queen franchise is a sponsor for Louisiana Tech. The giant ice cream cone and a blizzard cup walk around the stadium entertaining kids and/or do stupid little contest during timeouts and halftime.

I mean, he doesn’t go to Louisiana Personal Foul.

Agreed. I am SO tired of this fucking narrative. It is not in the Dems best interest to shut down the government over this issue. It is NOT the hill to lose the ‘18 elections on. FFS.........Boggles my mind that some think NOT shutting down the gov’t over this issue is the wrong move and somehow the Dems fault?! WE…

This isn’t even relevant. That is a different country who is our enemy at the moment. This sounds like it was written in North Korea by the dictator himself. There is no connection whatsoever. If you’re going to criticize the White House, go ahead because you won’t lack material, but please don’t write junk like this…

It’s probably better to approach DACA as a singular piece of legislation instead of hamstringing it by tying it to a budget plan or as quid pro quo bill. Nothing to distract, cajole or piss around with. All laid bare to see if Congress can get their shit together enough for these people. I’d wager it’s going to go…

I don’t think a government shutdown was going to result in any sort of DACA deal (although I would have liked to have seen more House Democrats vote against the bill since Republicans couldn’t whip enough of their own members). For whatever its worth, McConnell has put an immigration debate on the calendar for…

ALTERNET HEADLINE:

I think part of my discomfort was just the expressions on the two animals’ faces. The Corgi’s face was like “Oh hi, thought you’d be in bed! Well, I was just going to borrow your pony for a little while. I really must be off to my satanic ritual. Cheerio!”

Still better than Roy Moore.

Don’t disrespect their life choices. They obviously care deeply for each other.
