That performance was unreal. I love that song.

This. Plus the fact that he is smart and funny.

Only arresting who "they have to," but still feel the need to harass this poor fucker who was guilty of dancing. There's a disconnect there.

I hadn't seen that - thanks for posting!

How did Kristin Wiig never create a SNL character based on this woman??

That "The Foodroom" sketch is so fucking brilliant.

I am not a Tom Cruise fan, but he is fucking adorable in that gif. Woof.

Because.

He may have done some stupid shit in his life, but you can't fake this kind of interaction with children. He's amazing with these kids.

If America were less diverse, Bill Clinton would have lost as well (he won 44% of the white vote in 1996). You can "what if" until the cows come home. In terms of raw numbers, there are numerous breakdowns that swayed the election. Romney won the majority of the white vote, but a minority of the female and youth…

White voters made up 72% of the voters in the 2012 election. I'm not suggesting that Obama's election means there's no more racism in America, but Chris Rock is correct. Without the white vote, Obama could not have been elected.

"WAIT, IT GETS WEIRDER," screeches a hawk from high up in the sky. Bruce Jenner is becoming a— *hawk plummets from the sky and executes me before I can finish this sentence*

The book and movie aren't really about the hiking lifestyle - it's more about how the physical extremes of the hike, plus the self-reliance/confidence required to navigate the trail, the solitude, the fear, etc., can provide a means to personal growth and understanding. There's a great scene in the movie when Cheryl…

The issue is that Rolling Stone didn't bother to check the details/facts, and with a story like that, details and facts matter.

I never said it is obviously not true - I said that her facts, as described, don't check out. And as a lawyer, I adhere to the adage that it doesn't matter what's true, it only matters what you can prove. I think in an investigative piece like this, especially on such a divisive topic, that same principle should…

that's not even close to being the only hole in her story, and I'm not basing my opinion just on the Phi Psi letter. Read the Washington Post article, which did extensive research into the allegations . Jackie ended up identifying "Drew" to them, and the Washington Post tracked him down - and it turns out he was…

I don't think so. She claimed that she went to a date function at Phi Psi with a member who she met because they both worked as lifeguards at the aquatic center. She described the rape as being committed by guys who talked about having to do something similar in order to be brothers, implying that it was some type…

I agree with you. The point that I was making was that these aren't even minor discrepancies - they're huge, salient pieces that were essential to Jackie's story of the continued trauma and fear she experienced. It's fucking horrifying that this article ever saw the light of day.

They did believe her. Which was a problem when basic facts wouldn't have checked out if they did a modicum of investigating — like the fact that UVa holds fraternity rush in the spring, not in the fall. Like the fact that there was no party at Phi Psi on the date that Jackie claimed to be raped. Like the fact that…

On this issue, in these comments, it is too much to ask, I'm afraid. Which is a shame.
