I’m in for $200. But actual aggressive physical contact must occur with Trump or an immediate relative. I don’t even care which.

Nor do I, and I’ve also seen my share of transcripts. I said they might mention it, because I’m not familiar with Harvard transcripts from the years Obama would have attended. But as far as I know, the transcripts are not what people would really want to see - it would be other admissions documents, which would say if…

As far as I know, you’re right. I’ve never seen transcripts with that information, though it actually can be mentioned on other admissions documents.

I’m pretty sure they don’t at most colleges. I’ve worked at three universities, and none listed the admittance status or reasons on transcripts (though I have seen mentions of programs like affirmative action on other admissions documents). But that’s the belief of people that want to see Obama’s.

The transcripts might indicate that he was admitted under an affirmative action program. It’s not about grades or whether he finished the degree, which I’ve never heard disputed. They think that if the transcripts show Obama was an affirmative action student, that will “prove” he didn’t really earn the admission, and…

You have no right to not be offended.

I don’t recall the threat in his request to remove the Devi skin. Could you point out where that was? Because if it’s not there, you’re not nearly as clever as you believe yourself to be.

No right... to what? Ask that it be changed? Make a statement explaining why you’re offended?

I know who she is, but after realizing that she didn’t appear on Dancing with the Stars or America’s Got Talent, I can’t imagine why an art history class would waste any time on her.

I wouldn’t say that’s pedantic, it’s pointing out that your math class has failed you. A formula is used to solve for something, given parameters. ‘3 is not equal to 4' has no parameters, and no solution, because it’s not a formula. Don’t be misled by the =.

The Christian right is conservative, yes. The Christian right is only a subset of Christianity. Any reasonable liberal understands that.

There’s just no way to twist this the way you’re trying to. The inclusion of “in another generation” makes it exceptionally clear. There’s no guessing. There’s no implication of violence.

“I said, ‘This movie is going to be coming out on the 50th anniversary of Star Trek, the 50th anniversary of paying tribute to Gene Roddenberry, the man whose vision it was carried us through half a century. Honor him and create a new character. I urged them. He left me feeling that that was going to happen,” Takei…

Pfff... that’s how I get to work everyday. And I take the stairs, not the ramp. Ramps are for wimps.

Interesting that someone that defends the casual use of an offensive term with the argument of “fuck you, you’re not the boss of me” is concerned with making the world a more just and caring place to exist.

Not a substitute, a part of.

At no point did I suggest you’re using the word against women. You claim to be using the word in a very different way than most people do, then expecting insulation because you don’t mean it in the usual offensive way.

Words actually have commonly accepted meanings. Choosing to assign your own meaning does not absolve you of any trouble you run into. That must lead to a great deal of confusion in your life. I’m picturing you sending your dish back at a restaurant, because they brought you chicken when you asked for chicken, without…

So the problem is with your ability to cope with simple requests from society, versus the ability of others to manage more than one issue at a time. Got it.

I also have an autistic cousin, approaching 85 years old. In all those years, no one has been able to convince him that it’s impolite to walk up to strangers and inform them that they’re fat.
