  1. I'd add two elements to this... Protective parenting and an extensively online culture have dimished the capacity and capabilities for engaging in face to face conversations with people who hold different ideas or have different life experiences. Combined with the worship of 'tolerance' rather than understanding, boundaries are drawn and enforced with overreactive responses. The valid and important conversation about the cost of higher education can shift expectations away from learning and towards certification. The latter sees college as a commodity, and it follows that expectations for return on investment would support egocentric behavior (which is also still developmentally appropriate for young adults). Put differently... "I'm paying your salary, do what I want and get me a job". Colleges are deeply responsible for this mindset, particularly in their focus on 'investment' language and the arms race of amenities that many *resorts* campuses have pursued. You can't treat people like customers and then be surprised when they want to always be right.
  2. I've still got a highschool buddy who can get you some Molly if you're interested.
  3. Ratchet belt FTW. (Note: Google search results may vary)
  4. Could help one remember when the missus is experiencing her monthly tide. "Well, look at that... it's 'fuck going home' o'clock"
  5. Sorry if posted before... Had a high school classmate who was convinced that he'd get better gas mileage driving south, downhill on the earth's curvature. Nice to know that he's got a place in the White House if he could break away from sniffing paint fumes in his garage.
  6. That's one way to cut time off your poop knife usage.
  7. Right there with you on that
  8. Great game, 'Horns... The rematch in the playoffs will be so much better, and will very likely have different results. #Hook'em #GoBucks #OUSucks
  9. "Greetings from The Humungus! The Lord Humungus! The Warrior of the Wasteland!"
  10. That's just evil.... (Anne Hathaway, you say????)
  11. I thought it stood for "What Would Jordan Do"?
  12. Agreed. It's a taco (unless the bun splits).
  13. You don't often see ICE working to support fire... but here we are.
  14. Especially troubling if it's Ezekiel 23:20
  15. Well, from a business sense, it's a good move: "Let's piss off the two largest and most rabid fanbases in the country". Problem is too many people in both states will take Fox's side for reasons that would be best discussed in CR.
  16. "Uhhh... Uganda have your ass deported, amIrite Cletus?"
  17. That's because someone didn't put it back where it belongs.
  18. As long as the Trump Tower is secured... This is about being performative for a cert subset of the population. Letting the wealthy see that their way of life is safe, making the rest of the country know that they're willing to use force (to intimidate some from getting involved and to inspire others to join the cult), and not so subtly telling 'those' people that they need to stay in their neighborhoods.
  19. Costco? The one based in Seattle? Who'd have thunk it.... (#TeamKirkland)
  20. "Uh, just as a follow up here... Did Mr. Trump ever coordinate with you regarding potential 'dates' or 'companions'? If so, what can you tell us about those transactions? Also, it's been said that you introduced the President to the First Lady- what do you recall about that process? What do you remember about your work with the former Ms. Melanija Knavs?" If her business was indeed to be a madame/pimp for high priced and powerful clientele, including connections to underaged women, then much of that terrible and transactional behavior would not be inappropriate. In other words, she could be saying "Mr. Trump was a good client to work with, and always paid me in a timely fashion- as true gentlemen always do".
  21. Michigan man. We can guess what he'd do with some Jiff.
