The concept comes from Rome - see your own link.

The inspiration for this article is silly, but it raises interesting issues. Conservation groups don’t often highlight the reproductive abilities of rare species. I live near a park with several federally-listed endangered insects and other “special concern” reptiles and mammals. The law requires that the insects…

The author has 350 years of history with him. The word is barely older than that. The word has been used (loosely and unetymologically, to the irritation of pedants) since 1660s for “destroy a large but indefinite number of.”

I’ve been eager to see how the next film will begin. Did he kill someone who, at the time, was repairing an electrical or nuclear equipment? Did that object fall to the ground and explode? The destruction caused by auto traffic in Manhattan would take months/years to fix. Cities would crumble. Are the film writers…

a) Stopping child rape isn’t a “progressive” cause. It’s a universally shared value among everyone who isn’t a rapist.

The people who buy this phone are not the people who want a phone for two years.  Three??  hahaha... The frenzy is so much more insane than that.

Too many people here are quick to justify this with the phrase “bleeding edge.” It’s circular reasoning. That’s the very problem! How can you be blind to the waste? Financial waste for the consumer, financial waste for the producer, and all the circuits and precious metals that came from rural Africa only to end up in…

Back when the military wanted to recruit on college campuses, and simultaneously ban gays and lesbians, there were many colleges that tried to block them from the giant job fairs for violating the school anti-discrimination policies. (NYU, Columbia, and Cornell were three of the loud ones, among many others.) The…

Earth.  And pretty much all of it is theirs.

Of course he gained weight. Officially, his annual physical said he gained weight this year. That means that in reality, he gained a lot of weight. His doctors say that this spring is the first time he has ever been “obese” (not just overweight), so obviously he’s been obese for a decade or more.  When he claims to be…

Okay, so it sounds like they won’t be writing “Coca Cola” anytime soon, if ever.

An illegal “conspiracy” is simply when two or more people agree to do something. That in itself is the crime. They could never do the thing, and the conspiracy would still exist.

She picked out Christmas decorations. Allegedly.

“Nothing” is allowed... except for practically infinite things. If this is hard for you because “everything” you want to do is considered bigotry, then stop whining and look inward.

She comes from soap operas, and she probably thinks real life is like soap operas. After all, the president is a game show host. Reality doesn’t seem very real anymore.

You’ve got it backwards. She comments on all sorts of issues, but Fox is only interested in the comments about religion. Maybe it would surprise Fox viewers to hear how supportive she is of gay & lesbian people.

But also the sex toys. You forgot about the sex toys.

You’re on a crusade for orcas and elephants, but the topic is domesticated chickens and rabbits.  Not all animals are alike.  

I think I’m yelling for help, but my family and boyfriend have said that it’s just a closed-mouth “mmm... ehhh!!” kind of thing.  Definitely genetic.  My mom and sister do the same thing.

“We knew what was sustainable. But the overriding voice was ‘No, this is awesome, look how fast we’re growing.’”
