The fact that you aren't part of the judicial system, can't conduct searches or actually prosecute.

Seniority isn't just based on cumulative tenure, but also time in a particular position. You can be a long term employee with the least seniority on a team.

Have you ever in your life been to another country? Because runners do make money outside the US.

I’m all for women getting equal opportunity. But, an argument that GoT is a “women’s story” and should therefore be directed by a woman isn’t really logical, particularly when the creator of the story is an elderly man. Further, I think we agree that women are equally as capable of telling male stories.

Dude, if someone hits you, then you are one of two parties who have been in an accident. There’s a difference between identifying that at-fault party and all of the parties involved. There’s no moral superiority attached to letting someone injure you if you could have avoided the incident, regardless of the other…

So what? When did he become a Democrat? How much time, money and effort did he dedicate to getting other Democratic candidates elected?

It wasn’t undemocratic. Politics is about electability. Unless you’re shockingly unrealistic, Sanders had no shot at beating HRC. None.

The statistics on this matter. We allow fallible people to pilot all manner of vehicles and we know how many accidents occur and how they occur. We accept those risks. So, if we can extrapolate from the (admittedly) meager data that far, far fewer accidents and deaths would result from autonomous vehicle adoption,…

Nope. Strict liability in most cases. Rear ending another car is bad news.

That’s dumb as shit. If the accident they cause involves you, then it’s not their “own” accident. You can be injured whether you hit someone or they hit you, and if slowing down is the riskier choice over swerving, then swerve it should be.

I’m pro-choice, but I think how you view your pregnancy is largely determined by whether or not you wanted it to occur or, alternatively, desire its outcome. By definition it’s a medical condition, but it’s also potential (not a person) for a radically altered life.

Well, except that the story is about the coincidental and even serendipitous way people got together to wage war...

Um, she’s raising money. Charities in Africa aren’t too particular about the whole “white people potentially exploiting black people according to some Americans sitting on the couch in their nice apartments”. They have immediate and horrible needs. So, if they can co-opt some well-meaning white person to help them…

It’s illegal. Doesn’t matter that what they did was good. It’s illegal. The easiest way to kill a good liberal program is to illustrate non-compliance with Federal law.

I am certain we don't need more reasons to dislike those dudes.

There is only one way to eat mac and cheese, and it ain't sensibly.

No them, no here. Pretty simple.

Methinks that’s up to George. Or Beniot, et al.

So, whaddya think happened to the Monster marketing guy who went to the office one day and said, “Guys, we have a ridiculous opportunity in the Japanese 4-banger mod demo. I’m talking huge bucks in free advertising alone. I’ve already ordered 50,000 decals.”

I think you ignore the fact that meglomania is an implicit quality among those who are monarchs through heredity. Dany isn’t a megalomaniac because she’s simply power-hungry, she believes her right to rule is fundamentally legitimate. That doesn’t make her fictional character (you know, absent her dragons and…
