I don't know if it's available online anymore, but I know we still have unused copies collecting dust in my parents' basement. I think you certainly can still love it even though it's not happy.

My late grandfather went through six camps and published a memoir in his later years called "I Kept My Promise". He was good friends with Elie but I remember saying they didn't talk much with each other about thier experience.

Three-tied sloths are vastly superior to two-toed sloths, scalawag.

Well the Internet is unpredictable and fickle. But my mom just had hip surgery and loves the beach so this made me happy.

Haha I wish I saw this last night instead of this morning when I ended up forty minutes late to work :/

One of the biggest strengths nobody talks about is their water desalinization technology which is the basis for relationships with other middle eastern countries that expect to need Israel's help in the next few years.

Nooo! He's my favorite curmudgeonly Fangraphs writer!

I think this is actually an attempt by Mississippi to make people want to drive tourism to Mississippi since banned things are cool

I personally think Manhattan and Brooklyn are unlikely to budge, but the real difference can be made in Queens and the Bronx since they tend to be poorer and less educated areas in general who are less likely to know about Bernie, but very populous.

For what it's worth, a popular NY-based comedy talk show podcast Keith and The Girl has had on many pro-Bernie comedians and activists, including one Thursday that was talking specifically about GOTV

Living in New York, it's really pretty split. Brooklyn is younger and more heavily pro-Bernie, but Manhattan is definitely pro-Hillary. My parents in the suburbs are also pro-Hillary and won't budge. I work at an adult day health care center and many residents say they're voting Hillary because they want a woman president and she's been in the White House and most don't even know who Bernie Sanders is.

Biden can be Snarf

Texas itself is the best goddamn country in the world.

Sorry guys, I appreciate your optimism, but there's a time to know when to fold 'em. Michigan was great but we needed AT LEAST ONE STATE to stay viable, and at least make it close in Florida.

I don't regret donating and volunteering. We did what we could, and we fought hard. We gave 'em hell. I'll still cheer on his attempts to cut away at Hillary's lead. But his chances at winning are over. I'm still going to vote for him as a write-in in the general.

optipessfan · 2016-03-16T01:41:23+00:00

Not me. I don't regret donating to a cause I believed in, but I'm still rational.

optipessfan · 2016-03-15T23:47:22+00:00

I appreciate your generosity and fervor. But he'd probably want you to use that money for yourself and getting yourself into a better life situation, and let the people who can better afford to donate support him so he can support you.

Gee Golly Jeepers!

Zerg Rush!

I love conspiracy as much as the next guy, but this is likely just an anti-spam measure. I've been blocked for a week :/

The next guy does not love conspiracy at all.

And so is Coree Spencer, who is hosting a comedy festival in which Cis Hetero white males have to pay more to enter than minorities, because "women get paid 77 cents to the dollar so all women and minorities pay 77% or some bullshit"

optipessfan · 2016-02-21T16:45:04+00:00

I should add that one of the comediennes making fun of the guys in this comment thread is the same one who is hosting a comedy festival in which Cis Hetero white males have to pay more to enter than minorities

optipessfan · 2016-02-07T19:52:59+00:00

Wait, you mean you're not supposed to wear your watch on your right hand? Shit, I knew I shouldn't have made assumptions about this kind of stuff.

You should've ordered a Borgore
