That’s appropriate. Because when I hear “annoying little pissant” I immediately think of WEEI.

Not having enough funding to do their own jobs, nevermind the Feds’ would be the second biggest reason.

This is the number one reason that Sanctuary Cities are Sanctuary Cities. They’ve learned the hard way that when people are afraid to report crimes that crime increases. (And that almost feels like typing “Two plus two equals four, yo!”)

Really, we stopped lowering the flag. We refused to pretend that America gives a rat’s ass.

Our Prime Minister (Sir Justin the Photogenic) issued condolences to America, Kentucky, the school, and the families affected... in both our official languages.

Some of these stores are near other TRU/BRU locations. My local TRU has been about 1/3 BRU style product for the past couple of years and there’s a rumor (probably from store staff) that some of the local BRU stock is moving into their store.

I wonder if part of the plan is for a string of hybrid TRU/BRU stores.

without googling this (at work), I’m pretty sure the people (investors) running TRU at the moment are pretty much banking on the stores failing.

No Oddjob Toad.

If (Saints Safety) Marcus Williams is still behind him then Diggs steps out of bounds and the Vikings probably win it on a field goal. Williams saw the best opportunity for a Saints win in deflecting or intercepting the ball; unfortunately he came to that conclusion about a second too late.

It should be pointed out that since that first video a method has been found to de-randomize the Tyson fight and now he has been able to run the entire game blindfolded.

Did the White House Fake ____ ?

100% agreed. I didn’t go into all the reasons why this was the wrong age range for the assignment, but you definitely hit several of the key points.

No she was asking “why was slavery ‘good’?” which is a distinction that would be just as lost on fourth graders as it seemingly is on most adults.

Who the **** said anything about presenting that argument as being anything remotely close to equally valid (which I suppose is what you mean by “bothsideism”)? (Do you work in the White House Press Office?!) I’m talking about recognizing their arguments as a key step in understanding how they got to that point.

They should wear hajibs. Not because it’s culturally relevant but because I really, really want to see some forehead veins explode.

You’re hung up on the word “good.” (And I’d like to point out that the word is in quotes because, yeah, anybody with any common sense understands that none of those reasons are actually valid.) Children (though it should be middle school and up) absolutely need to comprehend history to learn from it.

I think you do have to look at why our ancestors thought that it was an acceptable practice and the justifications that they, government officials, and religious leaders used to defend their views when studying history and I appreciate the efforts of a teacher (particularly one in a religious setting) to teach…

As it was explained to me, they take the best information that they can and formulate a guess on what will be the most prevalent strands of influenza during the upcoming winter and inoculate against those strands. The reason you can get the flu this season (as I did) if you get a flu shot is that you didn’t receive a…

I recently agreed to fix a friend’s Wii that suffered a similar fate. I can’t wait to open it up and find out what’s in there additional to the small change that we already know about. All we know for certain is that there is something in there capable of slicing into a game disc. My money is figuratively on their…

I think it’s a sign of the times that I haven’t seen a single show or movie that won an award. With so many media outlets and so many subscription services there is just no way possible for the majority of the population to have seen even a majority of the nominees. That doesn’t even take into account the fact that…
