You, too? I really enjoyed Blood Drive. I thought I was the only one. Campy fun!

Alumna, not alumni.

Yeah! What about anal? I want to get to the bottom of this!

I have now seen the clip. If you got from that that Holmes is in favor of child abuse or that he’s a racist because he asks why we can stereotype some people and not others, then you REALLY don’t understand comedy. Or human verbal communication.

Actually, no.  It would not display for me.

Pete Holmes, racist child abuser. I put that phrase into Google and got no explanation.  Care to share?

Maybe. I guess it depends how talented your kid is. As a toddler, my son assisted in my hernia operation.

That kids’ adjunct to the wedding sounds like a blast! I’m 51, and I would skip out on the adults’ reception spend my time eating sundaes, going in the bouncy castle, and talking with little kids (whom I really enjoy hanging out with).

In general, the Orthodox community in the US and in Israel maintain fairly strong internal social services.

Burial in Israel is largely somewhat ‘green.’ As dictated by Jewish death and burial customs, the body is wrapped in a shroud and placed in teh grave within 24 hours of death. No chemicals, no coffins, etc., although there are grave markers. The exception is the military. Israelis killed in the military get a simple…

Wives and husbands can touch, as can same-sex family members. Therefore a spouse can be a caregiver, as can a child.

+1 for use of Shomer Negia. But I think you wrote your comment backwards. I expect that Shomer Negia people would only eat at restaurants where religious observance is expected. And they would not expect to be touched. However, based on my experiences at religious Jewish-owned restaurants, customers should go in…

Agree that it’s manipulative. The only person I’ve ever known who asked for hugs was a deeply needy emotional vampire of a woman, who asked for hugs more as a declarative statement about what was supposed to happen next, rather than as asking permission. SUPER creepy and unpleasant.

Agreed, having lived in Indiana for over four years (if you can call that ‘living.’)

I’m guessing you don’t have a professional slicer lying around (if you do, invite me over?)

Reading this, I’m sorry I didn’t take advantage during all those Motel 6 stays.

No one’s exactly going into Slenderman expecting Casablanca...
