I represent allegedly horrible people all the time. I’m ok with it. If the government wants to come in and say that someone is horrible; well then I say prove it. I make it as difficult as possible for them to do so, not because I want horrible people to run free but because I want them to really have to work at it…

Probably not verbatim, but very close! she really did call me a cunt, and he really did call her a cunt in my defense. And then he DID ask about a smokers patio in the same breath hahaha.

That may be “proper etiquette” in the same way not eating with your elbows on the table is “proper etiquette,” i.e. an old rule that is considered proper etiquette not so much because it serves any real purpose or because it makes any sort of sense, but rather because it is something people used to do, so it must be…

I though that article was fuckall stupid. I didn’t even know that was a thing until I read it. I have never, ever, not once, when a server takes an empty plate from in front of me (or asks if I’m done with it), thought anything other than “Oh, that’s nice! Now I don’t have a dirty fucking plate in front of me!” I damn…

Better ingredients, better farts.

I’m just so glad I bought Playmakers on DVD like 8 years ago. I’m going to watch it tonight now.

Colleges do not investigate rape and sexual assault as criminal matters. They investigate them as violations of the student code of conduct, to which all students are held. Violations of the student code of conduct can and do result in punishments, ranging from small (taking an ethics course) to suspension and…

Colleges and universities do not conduct “major criminal investigations and trials.” They conduct inquiries into violations of the student code of conduct, which as selective institutions (as you said before, no one has the right to a college education) they have the duty and the right to do.

Nice to see Milton Bradley is taking it easy in retirement.

I think MVP award debates get so stupidly overcomplicated. The criteria should be that the award for individual best player in a season or series should simply go to the player who was individually the best player in the season or series. Now, there can always be debate about how you measure who the best was, but in…

It really is the type of statement an 18 yo who just took sociology 101 at university, after living her entire life in white suburbia. I can identify them, because I was one.

I received a letter from opposing counsel today calling me a shakedown artist. I want to frame it.

She won’t get any of my empathy. She is belittling black women. She thinks that all it takes to be a black woman is to tan your skin, wear shitty wigs, and take black dick. She is scum.

well, it became apparent late in the thread that he or she actually didn’t understand the concept of white privilege at all, so I thought explaining that would be helpful. but yeah, probably a waste of time.

Of all the weak, seemingly-wannabe-edgy-thoughtpieces that purport to be worthwhile opinions on this shit, this is so far the weakest it almost hurts to read.

So you haven’t been watching the finals, eh?

You, as a medical professional, know all that information (which might not be accurate to her situation but is most common), but she, the patient, did not. She felt a lump in her breast and her doctor told her to get a mammogram ASAP. She was probably scared to death. As a health care provider you must know that for…

Actually, that doesn’t apply. If you are arguing against someone who says For all X then Y you only have to find one example. So, if I said “Nobody ever gets hit in the head with part of a bat while attending a Boston Red Sox game” you could give me an isolated incident and disprove my case.

Tate Tots are just a form of hash brown. The bigger question is why everyone is pretending they forgot this fact.
