  1.  @heavyeyessunrise  With respect, I did not intend the word "little" to be regarded in a literal way, but rather figuratively: When a person chronically displays the traits of a bully by habitually "punching down," by unashamedly behaving in a petulant, terribly thin-skinned manner, by exhibiting disrespect-indeed, intolerance--of the ideas and opinions of others- and acts to censor and crush those who disagree with him, and by failing to take responsibility for negative outcomes of their actions, then it matters not what their literal physical height may be. A temperament such as described makes someone small, nasty and awfully petty, hardly the characteristics of a person of admirable character. Cheers

  2. Yes, Marge does look like a dude. Good call, mate.

  4.  @Kfm7  With respect, the crush that a second-grader had upon their teacher hardly ranks as an indicator of their future sexual orientation. Cheers

  5. The late great journalist Molly Ivins wrote of Texas politics: "You gotta dance with the one who brung [read: bought] you." Musk spent a king's ransom to secure the election for Trump and Elon wants his payoff (bigly tax breaks) for his investment/bribe.

  6.  @bryanspindle4455  Yes, good old cross-dressing Uncle Miltie. And what about Jeffrey Tambor in Amazon's award-winning, "Transparent," or the great Felicity Huffman in "TransAmerica"? Cheers

  11.  @druidictroy1157  Yeah, but oxymorons have their use at times, eh? Cheers

  12. @Jackie Bereham Ah, time to trot out the standard tropes. Once you threw "baby killers" into the brew you instantly invalidated your previous argument: The issue of pro-life vs. pro-choice ranks as quite immaterial to issues of the treatment of trans people, which was the starting point for all the above argumentation. But you have your list of memorized "conservative" talking points, accepted unquestioningly by you as articles of faith and you wish to shoehorn in as many of them--regardless of whether they are germane--as possible.

  15. "Defectors will be shown no mercy for they deserve none." Yikes, yet another signpost on the increasingly steep descent into madness--and not the eccentric, artsy, entertaining branch of insanity, but the perilous, soulless, utterly depraved branch. What can we expect as the next development, armed thugs invading the homes of "defectors" to mete out swift justice?

  18. Perhaps someone could make J.K. Rowling disapparate.

  19. To be so rich and so emotionally immature... Musk needs to practice having well-defined boundaries.

  20. Elon Musk holds genuine disdain for Democracy, though, obviously, he has a soft spot in his heart for authoritarians. He ranks as a clear threat to American democracy. And his extensive financial entanglements--through contracts and subsidies for some of his business ventures--stands as a staggering conflict of interest, a conflict so large as to disqualify him from serving in any capacity to the incoming Trump administration.

  21. And what crime(s) did Trump's intended targets commit?!? Is the pursuit of Truth and Justice a crime in Trump's America?

  22. Hippocrates was an ancient Greek physician, a person considered the "father of medicine." Hypocrites are people who do not practice what they preach. Cheers

  23. With respect, perhaps if you were to confine your remarks to one issue you might end up with more concise, less digressive comments, posts that would be comprehensible to interesred readers. I am at a loss as to whether to approve or disapprove of your quite lengthy post given that it loses its own way rather early on and becomes an exemplar of too much heat (passion) and not enough light (reason). Cheers Cheers

  27. Perhaps it's a recurring erotic dream of hers: She imagines that she's being "violated" by Twits.

  28. I so enjoy when people lacking any expertise in investigative practices and knowing only the quite limited information available online indulge in forensic speculation: 'Dude, the time of death doesn't add up!' Christ on a bicycle! The madness and imbecility is gobsmacking.

  29. With respect, I can only assume that you do not have any friends in the teaching profession or you would know how many teachers love teaching and love working with children, and that they endure the ridiculously large time commitment and the Inadequate wages because of their dedication.

  30. Send Kimberly Guilfoyle to Argentina where she can hone her Eva Peron impersonation.

  31. @ michaelbartlett6864 With respect, the economy of China has seen its "heyday" come and go. It will not reach its projected GDP this year, it is witnessing a calamitous collapse of its housing bubble, it has greatly overextended itself through far too ambitious building initiatives, and it has a disillusioned middle class and a despairing younger generation. It's "go-go days" appear over. As for your suggestion that Canada, Mexico, and Europe (did the EU suddenly disappear?) join BRICS, what values and goals do the aforementioned entities have in common with such BRICS members as Ethiopia, Iran and the Russian Federation? Your contrarian suggestion may feel as though you are delivering a blow to American cutthroat Capitalism, but the facts don't support such a radical concept. Cheers

  32. If the vaccinated go about unmasked and the unvaccinated, who have no means of knowing who is or isn't vaccinated, observe these massless fellow citizens, what should they think? They might well feel angry. They might feel that two classes have been designated by the medical community and they fell into the less fortunate class. Or they might think, "Hey, if they aren't wearing masks, why should I?"

  33. The HD Vance theory of prosecution: 'If you took part in a violent crime but didn't kill anyone--or directly contribute to their death-'then you are forgiven sweet child.'

  34. Someone killed a "wonton"? Was this a scene in a martial arts actioner? (Donnie Yen and Scitt Adkins battle it out with flying wontons in, "IP Man 5, Soup to Nuts.")

  35.  @MaryAnnMsbl34  The somewhat dated idiomatic expression, "pick your poison," has two sources: In Australia liquor was colloquially referred to as poison, thus, if one visited a drinking establishment for liquid comfort one had a selection of poisons to choose from. One got to choose one's poison. (Pubs often were called "!poison shops", thus, the proprietor of the establishment might well say, "So what's your poison?") The other meaning refers to a situation in which one must choice between two unpleasant alternatives. A chore/task, for example, requires doing, but the two methods of accomplishing said task are both unpleasant. Still the thing must be done, so one must pick their poison, or choose between two undesirable alternatives. My response was a play upon those slang/idiomatic expressions: In a democracy one has the freedom--though not in all instances--to choose to imbibe or consume things that are unhealthful and potentially harmful to one's body and may reduce one's longevity. But even when the facts are well known--as in widely published warnings by the American Surgeon General--one can still choose to ignore such warnings and "pick one's poison". Cheers The other

  36. According to several news outlets, Bill Hemmer did, in fact, correct himself on his own gross misstatement. And I suspect that he called American Congessman Paul Gosar for any unintended offence to Gosar's idol, offence at having incorrectly attributed authorship of Gosar's fave book, Mein Kampf, to a Jewish commie.

  39.  @terryfuldsgaming7995  If one practices patience one will be rewarded with seeing previous dynamics turned on their heads. Remember when American Republicans could legitimately lay claim to being the party of Lincoln? These days when Republicans invoke the name of Abraham Lincoln, I quite believe that the corpse of the stove-pipe hatted President whirls about in his grave while shrieking like a banshee.

  40.  @williamswenson5315  Yes, they were "tested" by water in a cruel, inverted baptism of sorts, and Americans found guilty of the practice of witchcraft suffered death by hanging, but not so in Europe. Death by fire for those declared witches, practitioners of the dark arts, was rather a common practice in medieval Europe, parts of Scandinavia, and even Scotland.

  42. Perhaps a stroll through Amsterdam's lovely "red light district" would be just the tonic to loosen up those fossils...or wind them up so that they would launch an impromptu modern-day Holy Crusade. "Burn those sinners who refuse to repent!" ( No one expects The Spanish Inquisition Redux.)

  44.  @antblake1030  Now you've gone too far by insulting The Most Holy and Exalted Church of NASCAR and all its disciples, the Nascarenes. And don't place your hope in some last minute reprieve, or clemency: There'll be no Calvary riding to your rescue, sinner. (Get thee to a punnery.) Cheers

  45.  @一片叶的故事  And leave us not forget the ludicrous overuse of "fascism", "socialism", and, most especially, "woke". Too many Republicans desperately need access to a dictionary, though not as much as they need restraint, which would lead, hopefully, to thinking before speaking.

  49. You are correct to a certain degree: The Hebrew religion is just that, a religion. It is not a nationality or ethnicity. But if we are to follow your logic should all Americans receive hyphenated names that categorize them according to their religion--Lutheran-Americans, Catholic-Americans, Muslim-Americans. etc.--or is your taxonomy only for Jewish people? Cheers

  50. And Sean Hannity lacks a baccalaureate degree, but that hasn't hindered his rise to the topmost stratum of FOX.
