Cool, cool. Here’s my Op-Ed about how eating live bees is actually good for your colon. Is it founded in reality? No. Is there any science to back up my claim? Nah. Am I an authority on the subject I’m writing about? God, no.
Does my opinon enjoy the support of even a small majority of the country? No again.

Flip side: …

counterpoint: $500-$800 bucks a month is what people in a lot of the country pay monthly for housing. seems like a pretty hefty expense for a fucking Jetta.

Oh don’t get me wrong. I’m not defending OP’s “balls in mouth” bullshit, but I’ve also moved beyond the idea that people who support this Admin should, in any way, be treated with even a modicum of the respect one would normally try to reserve for someone who is merely a political adversary.

Furthermore, given how…

They’re gonna clutch their pearls, regardless. You may as well give them a reason. 

Apparently he hurt his face somehow in preseason and started the season in a mask so he personally just happened to have one fitted on hand. They talked about it a little on the broadcast. I’m wondering if it had happened in Portland, if they would’ve had it with them or if was just left over in his locker/training…

Counterpoint: For a womens college basketball player at a conservative Christian college in Texas, the immediate consequences of a personal boycott are likely much more significant than the effect such a boycott would have on the public. If I’m a college athlete that has spent the bulk of her life sacrificing and…

Cops get 5-10 years when the judge throws the book at them. They get probation when it’s just for show. This white lady isn’t gonna do 5 years for this, you can already tell.

All these flavors and you chose salt.

I liked this comment very much.

The power snivelings of the Rockets and (to an expectedly lesser extent) Warriors about the officiating in Game 1 of their much-anticipated and likely already-ruined series.

I’m at the point where I don’t even read this pissbaby’s words in print anymore, much less listen to him lisp and wheez his way through a sound byte. 

No, it’s the part about them winning 3 or 4 more chips. They’re in the twilight of their window, and most of us Warriors fans are pretty well aware of that reality.

The sad thing is, he’s not even the worst former Pacer working broadcasts for TNT.

FWIW, the time it would take to impeach Trump would eat into all the actual time Pence would have to “be” President. Add to that, he’d be presiding over a tainted administration which would suddenly find Senators jumping ship out of self-preservation, and add to that the fact that Pence would also have to throw…

This is the dumbest fucking sport on the planet

To your point, there is still not any story about the fire on Splinter that isn’t also dragging something/someone from the American Right. It’s a very odd perspective for a “news” site to take on such a big story.

Your take reminds me of William Burroughs’ essay “A Word to the Wise Guy”.

Or, they don’t like her because she’s calling them on their bullshit. But sure, let’s act like the gov’t run by an illiterate person requires measured apprenticeship in the year 2019.

I’m less disheartened to discover a certain percentage of the country is either this stupid or this selfish as I am to discover just how feckless the checks and balances of the opposition party and the media in general are at calling any of this out for what it is.

Oh try to wrap your mind around the logic of the convo thread I just had with two MAGA dipshits who think this is some 4D Chess:

MAGA dipshit #1 from Louisiana: Yup, let’s see how these cities implode from the influx of undocumented workers.
Me: You realize donor states like CA and NY help prop up the failing economies…
