Nah, it doesn’t count as “immigration” if the person is white.

No idea why I know this, but Cosby apparently always demands an honorary degree as “compensation” for speaking at a university.

I agree that most Blackhawks fans are reasonable people (I’m from Chicago), but the majority of fans I’ve seen post about this have taken a very scary “us vs. them” attitude about the case.

I *just* posted my shower story in another thread.

I’m willing to make this the property damage thread!

My college roommate used to smoke a lot of hookah with her boyfriend and also have a lot of sex with her boyfriend, and sometimes these activities overlapped.

Do you live in the Western US? I don’t know what the trees are (I know nothing about plants) but I’ve lived near groves in Colorado and California that everyone refers to as “the cum trees”.

My lab has a copy of a Russian textbook from the early 80s.

Reality: 8 hours later they are still shoving loose underwear into the box with the kitchen utensils

I think a lot of the time that’s an issue of out-of-date textbooks. In my high school, textbooks were usually at least 6-7 years old, and WWII was usually one of the last few chapters in the history textbooks.
