I’ve still not heard anything that is even remotely as scary as the “Look at Me” one, but every year I look forward to you wonderful commenters trying to best it.

This does not seem to particularly matter to Eric Trump, who seems to be busy living in a creepy video game loosely modeled after the 1987 film Wall Streetwhere slicked back hair is a professional look, down-time involves shooting cheetahs, and taxes are paid in adjectives.

I’m confused what you believe the proper response by these officers should have been.... they were shot at by someone.

Any of your white buddies ever throw a shot at a cop? Didn’t think so. I guess that might be the primary difference, not the white part.

How to become a doctor in this country:

So far this year, 12 kids were killed by police. 3 were white, 3 Hispanic and 6 were black. So white kids getting shot has already happened. Last year, 18 kids were killed by police. 10 of them were white, 5 black and 3 Hispanic.

A firsthand account from my friend’s fbook; account is set to private, so I just cut and paste:

Yes, he’s Muslim. If he were Latino, Black, Jewish, gay, trans, you wouldn’t say that he isn’t any of those things. Saying he isn’t Muslim is condescending, affirmative racism. He’s a Muslim fundamentalist. Call it what it is.

This fucking loser is an American citizen trying to kill people in the country that took him in, gave him citizenship, and provided him with opportunity. Here’s where everyone comes out to equate America with all the other horrible evils in the world. Yes, America has systemic, terrible problems, and questionable…

I was yelling at the tv ‘GO GET THE KITTY CAT BACK’. I was so pleased to see it saunter across the screen.

My parents are supportive and generous and have backed me up when I’ve needed a security deposit, moving fees, or whatever other out-of-reach necessities came my way as a young adult with a creative writing degree. I gratefully accept it. I have no intention (or obligation) to repay them.

I would not call this heroic. I would call it foolish, OctoMom-level stuff.

Not to take away from L-MM’s success, but multiply this by 1000x in 1964. When the Beatles came to America and you'd have an idea of what their lives were like.

I’ve lost two jobs solely based on the reporting of my case. I wish I never was good at swimming or had the opportunity to attend Stanford, so maybe the newspapers wouldn’t want to write stories about me.

Alcohol just gave him the courage to act on urges he already had when sober.

We bought tickets last November and are going in September. $178 each, and in the nosebleed section, but still. Benefits to having the old anniversary fall on a Tuesday.

We could have gotten them for $110 but the husband didn’t believe me when I said they’d be going up in price by the time we got home. “We’ll be back…

Abort all men and just save their sperm for procreation? Have all children through IVF.

I really don’t think saying there is definitely no God is as stupid as saying there definitely is one. Sure, nobody really knows. But there is no evidence to suggest there is. Similarly, nobody really knows if there are flying unicorns on Jupiter either, yet saying there definitely is would be much dumber than saying…

While this may be true and laudable, the problem with some ‘liberals’ - I hate labels btw - is that they don’t go that extra step and question everything. If you think through the rationale behind the whole concept of ‘God’ and religion, it just unravels before your eyes.

I grew up Republican as fuuuuuuuck until I learned how to read, left my hometown, and met other human beings.
