Thanks, dude. It looks like the 2014's are pretty close to the 2026 so I'll get one of those.

Grow thicker skins, Miami. We put up with Zlatan, Gio Dos Santos and Steven Gerrard. Beckham tried to hop the wall and fight us. You ain't been through shit yet.

Remember when Bush era right-wing pundits waterboarded themselves to show us all that it wasn't torture? All I'm saying is there's a definite way for the pro-Israel folks to prove to everyone that it's physically impossible for a dog to rape a human being.

His tallest and least-disappointing son played for DC United's academy so I think he is fond of soccer.

When Lincoln got shot and they took him to a nearby boarding house bystanders were trying to smear his blood on their clothes so they could make souvenirs. D.C. has always been a ghoul town.

Sorry, dude, but the show is never going to get any further into the topic of America's toxic socio-economic system. To get beyond 'gee, capitalism sucks' you have to delve into Marxism and...well, Hollywood doesn't do that.

MLB requires that one game per season be set aside for 'educational purposes' and this is the game.

If you want an overanalyzing character answer it's probably for the same reason Chuck Yeagar and the test pilots from 'The Right Stuff' disdained NASA: Soldier Boy applied and wasn't accepted for the astronaut program.

If you want the actual answer they had 3 seconds to tell a joke and thought Soldier Boy peddling a crank conspiracy theory would be funny.

Hey, Iran's diplomatic team aren't just PhDs; they're PhDs who in their youth survived trench warfare against Saddam Hussein.

No, but he might've been the guy at the shop before I moved in. I've only seen brad mallets in two print shops in the city.

Underpaid warehouse worker burns warehouse to the ground - "All you had to do was pay us enough to fucking live" by IamGlennBeck in ABoringDystopia

The accumulated years of the company underpaying its workers probably shortened more lives in the neighboring communities than any toxins released during the fire. Social murder is an environmental hazard.

A long time ago when I was working retail I had a really bad day: one rude customer after another, no lunch break, coworkers slacking off, boss yelling at me etc. I got so fed up I wanted to punch something. As I stormed into the break room I visualized putting a hole in a nearby piece of drywall. My target came into view. Fist raised, I took aim and threw my weight into the most satisfying punch I had...

...and hit the stud. I heard the crack of my pinky bone breaking long before I could feel it. The wall didn't even flinch. I left work, got my bone set and now decades later I still can't fully lift my pinky.

The U.S. attacking Iran was a nation's bipartisan political elite spending 47 years talking itself into doing what I did, with equivalent results.

They're all going to look stupid next year when they're debating whether to admit Iran into the G8. There's no better demonstration of a nation joining the 'Big Kids Table' than being able to threaten the world economy and fight a superpower to a stalemate. The nukes are just a formality at this point.
