I was turning onto the WSH. Didn’t hear shots but then again likely wouldn’t have really thought about them that much with all the traffic noise without knowing about the Home Depot truck in action. Saw the aftermath though. One dead cyclist and other people clustered around those who maybe still had a chance.

I think he’s supposed to be the cool guy jerk that never comes around, to contrast how great it was that Steve wasn’t just a jerk and Steve did come around.

I thought it was pretty straightforward: Billy’s his dad.

I don’t think the repeated warnings apply here - this is more like a developer stealing code and posting it on the internet. You don’t get multiple warnings for IP/security violations.

Daryl Hannah’s is the one that made my hair stand up: he got a key. It sounds like some of the women he attacked didn’t answer the door and snuck out via another exit or had the time to call someone to come over, but the thought that you believe there’s a locked door between you and an attacker and then abruptly HE’S…

I like that one of the positive interactions highlighted was that you can just come over and sit down, break up the idea that this is a private conversation. You don’t have to be confrontational, you don’t have to get the bully to admit what he’s doing - you just need to be someone who’s putting themselves in place to…

She’s the hippie-crunchy-granola version of Danica McKellar. Liberals like them because they have academic credentials, but then Mayim started going down a weird attachment-parenting, anti-vax path. She’s been in the side-eye column for almost a decade now.

Okay, thinking about it, there might be limited cases where that SEEMS to be true. My sister’s hair when long is straight, but when short is pretty curly. The only reason it’s stick-straight when it’s below her shoulders is the heaviness of her hair pulls the curl out. So I guess if you shaved off my sister’s long…

Surgical procedures can result in your follicles basically freaking out and starting a regrowth cycle for more of your hair than usual, which in turn makes more of it fall out in the post-surgery months. So you can end up with thinner hair than you started with.

What do you want to bet she called him “Tellis” regularly, rather than “Quinton”?

Sometimes the Trogdor/burner account shorthand has unintentionally gruesome connotations. Whoops.

Look, I have absolutely no idea about the particulars of this case, but while “Quentin” and “Derek” have little pronunciation resemblance - “Tellis” and “Derek” do.

If your husband thinks that there’s nothing he can materially do about Trump, he may just not want to cause himself worry with no outlet. Some people feel better talking it out, others would rather chew off their own face.

These FUCKERS. This is the first year I need to go on the goddamn exchanges and they roll this out just before the 2018 signups? And that means insurers can pull out?

I think middle-aged men see Trump as the living personification of their own stupider moments, which they don’t want to be held accountable for, so they defend him as a pre-emptive move to excuse their own behavior.

Right, but the thing Hannah thinks is a “ruined joke” is a quote from the NY Post, not the Comic Con panel. And as far as I can tell, the NYP quote is literally what happened on the show. Followed by Momoa saying he’s not a rapist.

“Yeah, I’m raping Emilia [Clarke, who plays Daenerys]. I love her, but I’m hurting her and she’s crying. We could have made it longer, but you get the idea. I’m not a rapist! I prefer my women to enjoy sex.”

An acquaintance’s uncle confidently assured me that if the country could survive a black man as President for 8 years, American Democracy must be indestructible. Like, the system’s so locked down that you could elect a Roomba and things would be fine.
