With you til the end, there. The purse is named after a human being. These are all people's names.

You know... I don't think it's about the car for him. Some people are in love with the creative process. The end result is... y'know... whatever. When you've got the resources to keep throwing at the thing... you just sort of keep modifying and keep modifying and keep modifying. 

Yup. I see 4, not particularly difficult to find, test targets. I was hoping for more of a challenge! ;)

Well if that isn't just about as hideous as it gets. Also... I love the *bowtie* Performance logo on the side of the engine... I just can't help but associate that logo with my dad's old pickup truck. "Performance" isn't what comes to mind.

My, my, aren't we being pedantic? What does any of that have to do with how far away from where they play the counties where the Raiders fanbase is the plurality is?

Right? I'll take it off your hands for $100. That is... you pay me to get rid of it for you.

RIGHT?!

My favorite part is how some commenters don't realize how blithely they're destroying their credibility in the eyes of the very people whose behavior, for better or worse, they wish to change. The amount of wasted energy that some folks put into ragging on things like this is just staggering.

Wait. Did you really go find the news footage so you could pull a clean screen grab?

These guys clearly didn't watch the Top Gear Middle East challenge.

I wasn't ever actually much of a fan, but back in its heyday, I always thought GM should've done a "Hummer: Want One?" campaign. Totally would've sent the American Family Assoc. over the edge. Would've been great.

Hmm. OK. Thanks for chatting.

Well, "shutting down the conversation" is most effectively done by walking away from it, and I feel like most people know that. So, with that in mind, I think we often accuse people who bring up what's bugging them of acting to "shut down the conversation" when what they're really doing is refusing to play by the…

Interesting. I guess I can understand why someone confronted with the term for the first time might be a little annoyed to discover someone who is not, themselves, cisgender, has invented a word for what cisgender describes, and is now insisting that cisgender people make themselves comfortable with the term. Maybe…

Bitten bullet, though, AndiG: "Just because bigots want to infer some offense from an inoffensive term doesn't change the fact that the term is correct."

Hmm... mightn't we recognize someone's right to have or not have a particular label applied to them regardless of the degree to which such label carries oppressive overtones, and regardless of their reason for asking to be identified or not identified in a particular way? I seriously don't mean to rehash your silly…

*cackle* nicely done.

Fair enough. I guess my point was more to do with the judge's recognition that this was some total bullshit and recommending a course of action to remedy it. Generally, I appreciate it, as a matter of principle, when judges follow the letter of the law in criminal cases partly because that leaves little room for the…

Well that's one hell of a disgusting legal loophole. The judges are doing the right thing by following the law but recommending a new trial such as the net result is that the asshole still gets hit with rape charges... but I should hope the California legislature doesn't "fix" the law by making it "fraud". They should…

*yawn* how blasé.
