She’s apparently friends with Clarence Thomas, too. But perhaps more of this is exactly what we need—people of different parties and ideologies actually being able to be friends with each other and see each other as people. Although the court is often divided 5-4 (or in this current state of limbo 4-4), there are

Each side thinks their candidate won the debate, or has realized that attention spans are so short, you can just claim victory and at least some people will believe you. This is a problem in any battle that ends without one side getting mercilessly slaughtered. Then, of course, there’s that whole other issue of

This shouldn’t have been acceptable behavior at Bank of America either. But corporate America, banks especially, have gotten all too comfortable with these and other perks. You’d be less likely to see a successful entrepreneur do something like this (a lot of them still fly coach as a matter of principle), but I guess

Not to mention how easy it will be for a company like CNH or John Deere to lock you out of a tractor for not making a loan payment (or even worse, some kind of monthly “maintenance fee” they’ll probably want to charge for the privilege of actually using a tractor you’ve already purchased). Maybe they can already do

Unfortunately he’s only been drinking Trump Ice, so there’s no chance of Montezuma’s Revenge redirecting the flow of diarrhea that typically spews from his mouth to his anus, even for a moment.

Did someone switch his speed for Xanax? Or is he getting leant off that syzzurp?

Although it might be antithetical to Vanguard’s whole mission, if Bogle actually had become a multi-billionaire he’d be a lot more well known to the American public, and have a larger platform from which to spread his ideas. Or, he’d be corrupted by it, just like most of the rest of the industry.

Perhaps we should stop rewarding people like Pierson and Corey Lewandowski with highly paid media gigs, although I can’t wait to see what reality show she pops up on next.

Can someone please explain these crossover coupes to me? Like, do the buyers of these things think that SUVs have too much storage space (actual utility), and that cars handle too well and have centers of gravity that are too low? They look like they were developed after the designer watched Mad Max: Fury Road, where

Since my descent into adulthood, I’m saddened to learn that there isn’t actually any magical drink or number of drinks consumed that will turn some boring gathering of me and my fellow adults into a super-fun party, making us all so uninhibited as to do silly things like form conga-lines and do the limbo (how low can

Although I can appreciate his choice of what looks to be the thigh, who eats their fried chicken with a knife and fork? The people who support him would be up in arms if any other candidate were eating fried chicken this way, especially if on a private jet.

Wagons may be due for a comeback. The crossover craze has already started to tilt things in that direction, as well as the styling of cars like the Tesla Model S and the new Porsche Panamera. You’re also starting to see some cooler wagons come onto the scene like the Volvo V90 (Volvo’s surging popularity will

Wouldn’t “public safety” dictate that an event that draws in excess of 30,000 people, many of whom will have a few drinks (even at the stadium’s inflated prices), should be well served by public transit so the drunk people don’t drive?

Yet another reason why Brexit is happening...

Enough with the Kermit Gosnell shit, seriously. Women, nor anyone outside of the anti-abortion movement, do not need additional laws to protect them against abortion doctors like Gosnell—the existing laws (and Gosnell violated many of them) were already sufficient to put him in jail for life. He could have even gotten

Don’t get me wrong—Abigail Fisher is just awful. She didn’t deserve to get into UT Austin, but still could have gone if she’d gone to another UT school and gotten better than a 3.2 GPA. But she only wanted what she wanted on her own terms. I’m sure she has a long list of people and policies that she considers to be,

It’ll all be fine. This was a long overdue raise, and I don’t know why we don’t tie these things to inflation, rather than depending on the president to issue an executive order.

How is Political Correctness is to blame for anything here (or honestly, anywhere, except for maybe the Yale halloween costume controversy, which I thought went a bit too far on my favorite holiday)? There are some rape accusations where the facts/events are in question and are a bit more open to interpretation—like,

He needs to get the fuck out already—his supporters now look like more progressive Trump supporters. Just as with his tax plan and plan for the economy, the math doesn’t add up. No amount of harping on the super delegates is going to change the math—assuming the remaining 939 delegates are awarded at margins close to

Everybody should retain the right to tell jokes, as long as they’re actually funny. Lisa Lampinelli, Sarah Silverman, George Carlin, Chris Rock and other stand up comics say some of the most horrible (and funny) things, and I hope they keep doing it. However, people who aren’t funny probably shouldn’t make jokes,
