Please ask him this if you ever run into him in person (figuratively, of course. If literally, please let me know so I can plan my party). I would like to see the choreography of the all the logic dancing he would need to do to reconcile who was best, when they stopped being the best, and how how he knows all about…

I have a question. My father in law’s ears are abnormally large, and are getting larger as he crosses from 89 to 90 years old. I think my mother in law, lovely as she is, would not appreciate my asking about any sort of observable connection between ear size (and nose size too) and, uh, shoe size.

Sometimes the heart doesn’t get a say though because other things are talking too loudly and end up drowning it out.

You know what they say, big nose, big...feet.

Not if the Russians something somewhere first! I am serious about that. Putin has been working on some diabolical plan for YEARS. Ukraine was a test run. He’s been nibbling away at all the countries on Russia’s western border. Russian naval and air activity is also increased- their ships, submarines and military…

Every mental health professional I’ve ever encountered has had one issue or another. There’s a reason for their initial decision to make that professional choice. Empathy, understanding, fascination/curiosity, whatever. I find it reassuring. Just because they could be crazier than a bedbug, doesn’t mean they don’t…

Nah. You can’t even begin to fix a problem till you identify exactly what it is. If you want to see fixing past wrongs as “outrage” that’s fine. Outrage is a powerful incentive and you don’t get to tell people how to feel.

Came here to say the exact same thing. She’s been the most successful contestant on Mantracker so far!

Evangelism has a really massive redemption and forgiveness narrative. Like, pretty much the biggest message of that sect is about forgiveness. The bigger the sin, the more tearful and pain filled plea for forgiveness in front of the congregation, the better. You can be stained by sin, do terrible things, damage people…

I have some concerns about a person encouraging children to not be critical of political leadership. He better have given them a very good reason for not allowing them to participate in political discourse and discuss the issues and failures of government or politician. Shutting down criticism strikes me as…

They actually washed up all along the shores of England, Scotland and Ireland, even. Orkney, Fair Isle and Shetland had pretty small populations and weren’t beholden to the English crown at the time, so absorbed whoever showed up into their communities.

Bless them.

God. I am so glad there are others who recognized the entitlement of this gesture. I thought I was the only one who thought if you’re going to do a nice thing, don’t make people dance for it. It’s not a game to women who are working their asses off at menial jobs with time restrictions on how long they can spend…

My thoughts exactly. It shows a fair amount of disrespect and condescension and lack of respect for housekeepers’ time. There are strict limits on how long housekeepers can spend on cleaning a room.

I admit, I have a real problem with that anecdote about her leaving money all over the place like an adult version of “SCRAMBLE!!!” It was a game to her. The women she was purportedly leaving the money for, and who have time restrictions on how long they need to spend cleaning a room, are now having to grub for bills…

Got that on my dad’s side. Apparently we have Mohawk connections from some time back. I doubt it.

Really, it’s a cultural service we’d be providing. Fostering talent and creativity, all while encouraging focus. We’re goddamn philanthropists is what we are.

Right. You can’t win. Period.

To be fair, I’d prefer they not have access to booze if they have guns. But this is one of those no win situations where every choice is bad, so I’d like to go with whichever option is the least lethal.

Pretty sure if you asked Jesus, he’d also say he likes people who have good aim too. Or, alternately, he’s want to be left out of the whole conversation.
