An “incurious congratulator of the past.” I’m not sure there’s a better succinct summary of Brooks than that right there.

You’d see a headline like “The Slow Virtues” or “The Hollow Century” or “Why the Teens Are Despicable,” and you’d know ol’ Dave’s coffee shop was out of plain croissants a week ago and the barista had a nose-ring and he’d decided he’d witnessed the death of the Western moral tradition.

In the years since, he has been a reliable producer of out-of-touch, tissue-thin pronouncements on the perils of our secularized, technologized 21st century lives, virtually all of which rightly can be interpreted as passive-aggressive nostalgia for what Family Circus comics told him “outdoors” might have been like…

Considering what’s been going on with my stomach lately, I’m pretty sure I’m developing a lactose intolerance, at least with regards to cheese. This hasn’t stopped me from eating it—I love cheese way too much—but I think this is what’s going on.

Thanks Don Lemon. For showing the world time and time again just how much of a spineless piece of shit you are.

Because the cops are fucking stupid, that’s why. Why would you support those whose illegal and unjustified actions are at the root of all this violence? They’re dumber than a bag of hammers.

None of us wants to tolerate it. It’s intolerable. However, they have the guns, the tanks, the ammo, the teargas, the pepper spray, the billy clubs, the kevlar, the shields, the rocket launchers, the seatbelt-free arrest wagons, and a political machine that not only pointedly blinds itself to their criminal, racist,…

I’ll admit that woman made a pretty stupid statement, and the state of the American educational system is fucked, but goddamn, I’m tickled pink to read a comment from a German who, without a trace of irony or self-awareness, states that he wants someone arrested for saying what she thinks. Great shit, man. Thanks for…

I’ve never commented on Kinja nor have i felt compelled to. But I can’t help myself; the current state of America is completely fucked. Period. And no one is listening.

Don Lemon just directed a reporter to ask if a couple of protesters were sure they actually saw the police beat someone 10 feet away, then spewed this gem

I’m not enjoying this season of “The Wire” at all.

This whole situation, man...

Thank you, Baltimore.

I blame the department and let me tell you why. They praise rookie officers. They’ll go around making a 100 arrests a month, and they’ll praise them. These rookie officers will do anything to get an arrest because they want more praise, you know what I’m saying? This is the result of it. They arrested Gray for some…

In the same vein, I once made chicken pot pie for a pun-loving stoner’s birthday, and the slight herb flavor was a delicious addition. Less easy, but similarly dangerous.

Hurrah, the fancy stoners have arrived!!

Oof. You guys have turned into the mean kids at school that pass around some girls diary for lolz.

Correctly. Also: TF2 is most like about to be ported to Source Engine 2.

So.... Basically, the fed-up obsessed players has forgotten how old this game is and completely lost touch with reality. Alright, I can understand that.
