  1. The reason that "nobody has ever seen numbers like this before" is they don't exist.

  2. People learn about Trump's presidency for the same reason people learn about the Holocaust, to prevent something like that ever happening again.

  3. And the teeth sucking "tsk" sound. The thing my guy, Dror, does that drives me nuts, is throwing in "OK" ten times in a sentence.

  4.  @starscreamofvos  The evidence that humans are evolutionarily omnivores is undisputable. Claiming we are not evolved from meat eaters is like claiming Biden did not win the election, truly delusional.

  5. Things are so much better these days. When I was a child, people would smoke in grocery stores, flicking their ashes on the floor. The mother driving car pool smoked. They smoked in planes and restaurants. Oh, we got a no smoking section. As if the smoke obeyed the barrier. They smoked at work, like those cubicles they put us in would stop the smoke. And it wasn't just Texas, it was the whole world. You're correct, people need to be a bit more considerate.

  6. It's true that he created his own certification board, but he was also certified by the American Board of Ophthalmologists, which is the normal certification board. What I find weird is, after med school and internship, he did an OB/GYN residency, but became an ophthalmologist.

  7. Question, how much help did McCarthy give Pelosi, when she was Speaker, and the squad was making it difficult for her to get the country's work done? He should have expected the same help he gave, none.

  8. Wow, just wow, do you two realize how racist you sound? I know several black know-it-alls who will ruin any family gathering, it is not a function of color. Also, I have found that intelligent, well-informed people, of any color, tend to blow their own horn far less than the ignorant ones.

  9. Maybe she wasn't as crazy then. Guiliani didn't used to be loony tunes. Trump seems to suck the intelligence out of people, like a mental vampire.

  10. But, you vote on Saturday, which means observant Jews can't vote. I like our system in Oregon better. We all vote by mail, and can do it at our convenience. All we really need to do, to raise voter participation, is to get rid of the Electoral College. I know plenty of people in heavily blue or red states, who feel their vote won't matter. If there were a popular vote, a lot more people would vote. And I would never eat an sausage of unknown origin. Too much like something out of a Terry Prachett novel.

  11. Complete sentences, proper syntax, and a coherent thought, things we never see in the current denizen of the White House.

  12. How? Do you think he could be shamed into doing so? The Coke can guy? Really?

  13. The difference between Cuomo and Northum, is the Virginia governor is a nice guy who did something stupid, and the people who should have been the most upset, black people in Virginia, didn't want him to resign. Nobody thinks Cuomo is a nice guy. And who really thinks Cuomo didn't know exactly what he was doing, when he put the moves on women, his daughters' age.

  14. It was really scary. I know a lot of black people think a white person won't get it, but any minority can relate to the feeling that something is going on that you are not privy to, and it won't be good for you.

  15. Dude, when you have to come up with eight gifts each year, one night is going to be socks.

  16. You left out "sir". Those big strong men always call him "sir". "Mr. president, sir, thank you, sir."

  17. Towel charms? Really? What's wrong with buying beach towels in different designs and colors? This is a crappy solution to a nonexistent problem. She obviously has too much time on her hands; maybe she should volunteer to read to children in a library, be a teacher's aide in a school, or help out in a soup kitchen.

  18.  @Jreyes1227  Nobody is killing babies. At six weeks, the fetus you're so concerned about, is indistinguishable from that of any other mammal, bird, lizard or fish. It is not repeat, not a baby !

  19.  @aw3821  I went through something similar, 3 weeks without electricity after a snowstorm. We put the children in the bed between us, piled on the blankets, and kept them warm with our own body heat. The cats joined us too. I boiled water on the gas stove, in a vain attempt to keep our younger daughter's tropical fish alive.

  20.  @FallenOne669  Trump's hair looks more like a kindergarten paste project.

  21. You can't handle the truth, eh?

  22. I live with one. He has a PhD in biochemistry, so I can't even reassure myself he is too stupid to get it. He has been brainwashed by Fox. The BS he spouts is right out of Hannity's mouth, but when I respond and tear his nonsense down plank by plank, he fakes heart arrhythmia.

  23. T. rubrum usually takes hold in immuno-compromised individuals, like pregnant ladies or those with a bad diet. It is easily cured, but a stubborn infection needs medical care. I hope this fool gets ringworm or athlete's foot and tries to pray it away.

  24. My daughter, Shoshanna, was so happy when Girls came out, because people stopped asking her if I'd made up her name. She was not best pleased by how ditzy the character was though.

  25.  @blueberriesandpickle  Rowling isn't transphobic. She's just honest. And that drives dishonest people crazy.

  26. Guiliani thinks the idea of using epidemiology on cancer is funny. Yet, one way we know if fracking is putting toxins into the water table is, there are clusters of cancer in children and livestock near a fracking site. And other cancers are caused by viruses, which are contagious. Think of HPV. When someone tests positive for such a STD, contact tracing is standard. It just shows how little Guiliani knows.

  27. It doesn't matter how many ballots come to your home, since each registered voter can only vote once. Any subsequent ballot, from the same person, is rejected.

  28. I agree with Goldstein, what we call football is really American rugby, you move the damned oblong with your hands. Growing up in rural California, I detested sports because it was all pointy ball and baseball. Finally a football (the real football) official talked me into watching him officiate, by promising me that the game was finite, not timeout after timeout. I was willing to commit to two 45 minute half, and maybe a 10 minute overtime. But I don't understand his being confused by baseball, it is a lot less baroque than cricket. Several times, I asked friends what the rules of that game were, and the most obtuse explanation I ever got was "You put nine stones in your pocket, and each time the sides change you move a stone to another pocket. When all the stones have been moved, you go drink."

  29.  Axl Dave  'Ignorant hypocrites on the left'? You do know that college educated people are more likely to vote Democratic, don't you? And the hypocrisy of saying you're pro-life, while taking away health care and doing nothing about an impending pandemic, is just a small part of the hypocrisy on the right.

  30.  @Jreyes1227  Are you saying a woman must marry her rapist, like the Taliban does? If you're so into responsibility, I hope you've had a vasectomy.

  31.  @Marijuanifornia  Read the room. Anyone who was an adult, when Clinton was president, knew the majority of the country was not ready for legalization, much of it still isn't. And this is coming from someone who signed every legalization petition since the late 1970s.

  32. Clinton is both literate and articulate, Trump is neither. Whose book would you rather read?

  33. A sewer overflows. Fifteen people walk by and say "Oh gosh, the sewer is overflowing". The Truth Channel overhears the last and tells him he is just repeating talking points. Just because something is obvious, doesn't make it false.

  34. I would have just rolled my eyes. But then, I was the kid who refused to say the 'under god' part of the pledge.

  35. My mom's from Missouri, she also pronounced the first syllable with a long "i". But then, she "warshes" the clothes.

  36. Because Theodore Geisel lived in La Jolla, every year he'd tour the grade schools in that part of California. I still remember his visits to our school's library. (This was in the 1960s.) I loved watching him draw, turning fellow students into characters.

  37. Las Vegas, NM is much older than Las Vegas, NV. My grandmother was born there in the 19th century.

  38.  @thomaswilliams3882  I love how red states don't take care of the drug addicts they produce. Then, those struggling people move to an area that does take care of those with problems, and the same selfish people in red states say, look at how terrible that city in a blue state is. A survey of the homeless in San Francisco showed that the majority came from Texas. So the problem isn't what's wrong with California, but what's wrong with Texas.

  39. Complete with Krystalnacht in Los Angeles.

  40. We have no input in what you do either. That's the way citizenship works.

  41.  @TCt83067695  You're giving a nobody credit for her work, which was begun long before the nobody was born.

  42. That's OK. I was thinking that RuPaul thing is a fly (Diptera), not a bug (Hemiptera). Seth's insect looks like Coleoptera, also not a bug.

  43. The ironic thing is, the people that would be hurt the most by the demise of the Post Office are those in rural areas, Trump's base. UPS has the cities covered, but rural areas rely upon USPS.

  44.  @STEVENFRYFRY  Conservative states didn't legalize. Besides, there was a disgusting racial component to the laws making it illegal. It is absurd it is a schedule 1 drug.

  45. As a microbiologist/engineer, I totally agree.

  46. I started reading about this novel Coronavirus in mid January (MMWR from CDC), and slowly my panic began to grow, as I saw our government do nothing. I was in Israel at the time, and returned home on February 3. The border agents were taking temperatures of everyone from affected countries, and pulling out those with a fever. So, I felt more secure. But, then I started reading about asymptomatic cases transmitting the disease, and my freak out escalated. I called my daughters, and told them to prepare. My older girl works for Intel, and said several of her co-workers just returned from China, and I told her don't touch anything, there are fomites all over the place. Shortly after that, Intel sent all its workers home. But, still our government dithered.

  47. I don't know. I came home from a vacation to find my son-in-law had laid down brand new carpet for me. That was pretty damned cool.

  48. In a couple of months, we'll all be able to sleep soundly again.

  49. He knew he was being set up as the pasty, and got them all before they could get him. Of course he was giddy. Plus, back home in Portland, he had protesters on his doorstep. After his testimony, they all decamped.

  50. Kloggmonkey: it wouldn't matter if Bernie beat Trump in the debates, Hillary creamed him int the debates, but we still have the orange gonif thanks to the Electoral College, Russian interference, voter suppression, etc.
