I'll save you the trouble.

But that's precisely it. That's the hook.

Bone Machine is god-tier Waits. "Black Wings" is one of the greatest tunes ever.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who despises that word.

[21] Some day it will probably be shown that astrology can explain a lot of things.

I also think that people calling those who believe in religion idiots and morons believing in superstition are as close minded as the people they publicly bash.

The term "organic" used in food production is not now and never was in reference to the scientific term "organic". In food production, it means something entirely different...much the same way as many words in the English language mean several different things depending on the context they're used in.

Better to rope them into working for peanuts and surrendering to their god-appointed masters, my dear.

This can't be right. The pretty people on the tee-vee tell me that we have the BEST HEALTHCARE IN THE WORLD.

I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going.

Like the Conservative's fantasy ideal of Ronald Reagan vs. the one who actually existed?
