Fuck pets on airplanes. My wife is severely allergic to anything with fur. We were on a JetBlue flight and didn’t know the woman in the next aisle had a lapdog in her bag until just after takeoff. My wife was trying to figure out why she was breaking out in hives and her asthma was starting to act up.

The only legitimate complaint is when testing standards are lowered for the specific reason of letting a certain quots of women through. If you’re going in to combat, you want to know that every person by your side was tested to the same high standard.

Do your first table gaming in the late morning or early afternoon when the crowds are small and the minimums are low. The dealers will have time to teach you how to play the games and the other gamblers won’t be annoyed with you and may even join in to give you tips.

I think she just invented a new fetish.

Dilbert is funny if you’ve ever worked in a tech company or engineering. The basic archetypes exist in every office. And the characters tend to say what people wish they could say in their office.

You know the fact that you and every other Gawker writer has to point out that the people involved in a story are white is inherently as racist as pointing out when they are black.

Next up: Does breathing in deeply through your nose really bring in more air than through your mouth?

Do you really think offering an explanation for the legal reasons why this was not ruled a self defense case is equivalent to offering a solution to domestic violence?

I think the big question is, what character would Bruce Wayne play in a D&D campaign? Picture the Justice League getting together for game night.

I was thinking a little more like Brave & the Bold Batman, but with the comic’s harder edge.

I wonder if they’ll make Bruce into Batman again, but it will be a more level and less brooding Batman. A Batman who has friends over to watch football, laughs at jokes and occasionally quips at villains.

In the old days, the victim’s family would step in and kill him and then bury him in a field somewhere. Case closed. (If anyone did anything, because a wife was basically property.....)

Now try to find a case where that argument has ever worked. Two NYPD locked themselves in a conductors booth on a subway car while a man stabbed another man to death in front of them. They faced NO legal punishment for it.

The Supreme Court has ruled on multiple occasions that the police have no legal duty to protect you from harm. They can not be held legally accountable because you were the victim of a crime. Ultimately, the only one responsible for your safety is you.

She’s in prison because shooting someone in their sleep is ALWAYS murder. Lethal force is only legally justified when someone presents an IMMEDIATE threat to life. If their asleep, you have the option to walk away. She could have left while he was asleep and checked into a battered woman’s shelter.

I didn’t find the Mona Lisa itself underwhelming, but the crowd takes a lot out of the experience. What you get seeing it, or any painting, in person that you can’t get from an Internet search is being able to see the depth and texture of the actual brush strokes. There’s a dimensionality to a real painting you don’t…

Everyone on the left that is. There are a LOT of pro-choice, pro-gay marriage, etc. moderates who identify as (R). There are also a lot of people who identify as (D) who would also like to see rampant government spending and waste cut off. There are also 51% of registered voters who don’t vote at all either out of…

The increased militarization and “us vs. Them” mentality of police is a huge problem in this country across the board. Throw in no-knock warrants and cops shooting people’s dogs just because, and there is a universal problem of police being the aggressors and the biggest gang in America.

The only difference between (R) and (D) is that (R) is looting the middle class and the poor to give money to the rich and (D) wants to loot the middle class and the rich to give to the poor (the poor defined as anyone making below $50k a year). Both parties are happily fucking over the middle class.

If he had been able to come out as pro-choice, pro-gay marriage, pro-health care, etc. (As he was as governor) Fiscal conservative, he could have overcome much of that by branding himself properly. It wouldn’t guarantee a victory, but it would have been a much closer fight.
