It’s not just low-information, it’s willfully ignorant, educated persons too.

And as a person with a PhD who works with many other PhD’s, and whose husband’s best friend is a doctor, I can fully endorse this comment. I work with PhD’s who are profoundly stupid. 

Oh I’ve fucked off plenty. Thank you for descending from the heavens to pass judgment on something that is not your business nor do you have any deep knowledge about. Telling someone their life and how they experience it doesn’t matter because you decided you know more is a terrible thing and you have no moral…

I feel bullied by that dress.

Oh shut up.

I agree with you. My parents were the same, in fact I can’t even remember being spanked but I know I was. Actually, now remembering: I was spanked by my father when I fell into a pig pen after he had specifically told me to stay away from the pigpens. A momma had just had babies. Pigs are dangerous and can kill a…

My 2-year old daughter is the same, without fear or thought and she’s a runner. I’ve whapped her on the ass several times, because I was scared and because I wanted her to know that those actions are dangerous. I never hurt anything except her feelings, and she was more mad than scared (but quickly got over it and she…

I know. My experience tells me though, that we are all potential criminals or even current substance abusers, and we’ve been lucky enough to not get caught.

A totally under-appreciated film.

Yeah, when I taught high school history, I used a lesson from the textbook on dividing the class into two groups and having them defend the Northern and Southern cause of the Civil War. In retrospect, it just reinforced pre-existing biases (I taught in Florida). I was a new teacher and didn’t know what the hell I was…

I’m conflicted because I hate to doubt real accusations, but I’m also with you: there are no real accusations here and we all know how rumors work. However, there is also CK’s power and influence to consider, so real accusations, if they exist, may not ever come to light or be Cosby’ed (they don’t come out until he’s…

I try not to listen to him (prefer to read his rants) but I listened to some of his UN speech and my gods, the slurring and weird pronunciations. He’s on something, right?

I’m with you except for your last piece, on past drug use or criminal convictions. I know some fine people with past drug or criminal dealings and they would make great defenders of our country.

What does that even mean? It doesn’t expand any coverage, as far as I can tell, so what mother and father is waiting on this to pass?

For some reason, I’m hysterical with your Benedict Cumberbatch line. It defies logic: his weird, pasty face and blown up muscles. 

This needs more stars.

I’m only certain of “blurgh” because it sounds like it looks. I could be wrong though.

Yep.

I was told “we survived your guy for 8 years, you will survive ours.” After rage stroking, I calmly said, “no one will survive him.” I wanted to list all the things that Obama did that they benefit from, even their die-hard “get Bin Laden bring-it-on war cry” which he did, but saved my breath in case I need it later.

At the risk of sounding like an idiot, we fly a flag on our front porch, in case the crazies let loose and starting burning shit down. We want time to load up the wagons and head north.
