Re: trench coat mafia, I have a friend who grew up on the west coast. I grew up in New York. Judging by the jokes we know, one would swear we went to the same middle school. Things spread. Just faster these days.
We Cub fan vets of 1969 do not diss the Mets. We loathe them out of wounded pride and jealousy. There's a difference.
It's funny... the collapse of 1984 against the Padres (won the first two games of the NLCS, lost the next three) was arguably worse, but I hate the Padres much less. Maybe because it was over with so quickly, while the 1969 collapse was so agonizingly long and drawn out. Or maybe I just grew up. (If so, not much.)
Any distraction, any blame shifting, any excuse, to cover up the real fact that we are the only advanced country not to have reasonable controls on lethal weaponry and we are suffering the consequences for our gun fetishism
I was thinking it might be like that potato-washing monkeys thingy. You know the story, it was in Japan, kind of spooky but salt was implicated in the explanations. Yummy, yummy salt.http://alfre.dk/monkeys-was...
Yep. Red is the issue. https://uploads.disquscdn.c...
Yeah, baby!
Do not diss my Mets. We have so little.
And that hippety-hop music they all listen to when they're not getting off my lawn!!
Truer words were never interwebzed.

Goddamn, this is getting tiresome. How long until they literally blame it on the weather?

Replace "trenchcoats" with "shorty robes." Better?
How many guns will fit under a ten gallon hat?
That is just bad detective work, of the sort that might come from a man who owns no trench coats himself.
I believe Hugh Hewitt actually owns a trench coat. I also believe he owns a pair of pants legs that attach at the knees.

Not a problem. We can handle the increased heating bills by just taking that amount out of the teachers' pay.

Just wait until NATO gives up and starts the sanctions against the dangerous fascist nuclear-capable state.
