Because this is a thing on the web, where people provide answers that they don't know. Just don't say anything if you don't know. It's annoying.

Hm. Even if you were annoyed by my "half-assed answer," why expend the energy to be a jerk in response? Did you perhaps think my comment was sarcastic? Worse than uninformed responses, I think, are people who decide to be assholes for no reason.

1. This was specific to coffee2. 24 hours without coffee does not seem like an enormous hardship, even to the most addicted.3. Why do people with no expertise, or even knowledge, feel compelled to provide half-assed answers.

Ah. I didn't realize that Yom Kippur was a fast. I fast for Ramadan, so I get it. That first glass of water after sundown never tasted so sweet, especially when it falls midsummer.

Yom Kippur is a twenty-five hour fast-this year, from just before sundown Tuesday to just after sundown last night. That means no food or drink, including coffee. To avoid a withdrawal migraine, I stopped drinking coffee a few days earlier, on Sunday. Which made this morning’s coffee taste that much better.

"Trump and the House Freedom crazies intend to die on a Russian hill with Carter Page." OMG, really, is this a promise, please?! Am in London and trying hard not to check my phone every five minutes in hopes of the Con's marching off a cliff or something. (The British popular press, of course, is more interested in Stormy's memoirs.)

It's painful to watch those things being born.

There's someone in my neighborhood who has a Ted Cruz sign in their yard. This is noteworthy because I live in Georgia.

Probably OT, but the founder of the 3D gun printing company has been accused of sexually assaulting a minor in Texas. https://www.npr.org/2018/09...

Regarding the Burge story: Good. Any further comment on my part invites the banhammer.

The conservative dicknoses who brought you "Clinton Cash" have a new movie, "The Creepy Line," where they try to convince you that Google is the liberal Devil brainwashing you into supporting women's rights and hating Donald Trump through magic ALGORITHMS.

Even though Peter Schweizer made up the Uranium One scandal, but it still warrants a full investigation because he put it in a book, whereas anything researched by a legitimate professional investigator has to be bullshit because Carter Page is such an upstanding citizen.

What America needs is a photoshop picture of Pepe the frog sitting atop the mushroom character from Mario Bros, Toad, zatzizname? Make it so!
