Jeez, I wish I had stopped reading before I got to that.

"when COX-2 inhibitors came out they seemed like the holy grail"
To who? See, that's the problem and I think the reason for the so-called "wanker" comments.
There is no holy grail. And anybody trying to sell me one is the wanker.

No, I'm disgusted when reminded that they... [more]

So what if it's against my religion to serve black people in my restaurant, or rent housing to them?

No support for RAW makes it worthless to me for starters.
If you want to fart around with some lo-res jpgs sure; but this is like saying that a john boat is going to replace an aircraft carrier.

Police raid mayor's house, shoot dogs, recommend land war in Asia.
If they really didn't bother to find out who may have been on the other side of that door before knocking it down it sounds like pretty shitty police work.
Pistol packing crips? Russian mobsters with an M60? Yakuza assassins with swords and hatchets? Little old lady baking cookies?
Ah what the hell, let's go boys!

uh, yeah you might try describing that scenario to a mechanic without the prayer part and see what (s)he tells you. I would explain but you wouldn't listen to me.

"one of the very first comments was 'yo yo yo whatever'"
Because it was true. I saw him on Colbert and thought he was great.
That clip was not great, and he was wearing dooky gold chains.

Really, if you don't have time to bake a cake then buy one.
But don't pretend you are cooking with the microwave.

As a man, I would say yes.
I don't give a shit about your favorite sports team.
Yes, I checked out the ass on that babe.
No, I don't want a miller lite.
Yes, I have good male friends who are the exception to the rule, but they are the exception.

CookingFilter: Ten Home Cooking Mistakes
My pet peeve - "How long do I cook it?"
The answer is "Until it's done".
Check the temp, stick a toothpick in it, whatever, but timers are just to remind you to check it.

Freedom of speech
Is it an incitement to violence? Sure it is.
But Mark Dice is in no danger, because Reagan and his listeners are pants wetting cowards who like to share these masturbatory fantasies with each other to escape from their miserable lives.
They live in a world where they've gotten the shaft from uppity negroes and loud mouthed women, know it all scientists and pointy headed intellectuals. The 21st century is a strange and frightening time for them, and they will never catch... [more]

I thought the implications were explained well here better than any other thread I've seen on this subject.
But down it goes into the memory hole and 6 months later when it comes to pass it will be forgotten in favor of the larger narrative.
Good job, citizen!

WW2 vet pwns wingnut blogger
What is especially pathetic here is that the History channel runs WWII docs around the clock.
You'd have to be pretty dense to have not become acquainted with the horrors of Nazi "work" camps if you grew up in the US with a television.

"Obama is now, apparently, a liar?"
Oh but that's just the beginning.
Our investigation has discovered that some of these WWII vets are "Sheehanites" and didn't really see that much action, and the ones who came home and hid in their attics are a bunch of pussies who freaked out over a few bodies stacked like cord wood.
I don't think the Nazis even had real bullets, if you want to know the truth.
I think it was all a big... [more]

BMW M5 Crashes, Kills 5
This isn't sad at all. That's one more car load of reckless pricks off the road.
I didn't do that fast car bullshit when I was a kid but I did ride motorcycles off-road and legally.
You don't have to be a shithead to have fun and take some risks.

I could care less about baseball or steroids but this whole idea of a list, which is more a media creation than the substance of the report, reeks of McCartheyism.

"Until you need one"
Yeah, I could never fill out all that paper work myself.
Seriously, when are cops ever available when you "need one"?
Thank goodness they arrest people when they can, but how often do they actually protect someone or their property?
It's not that I'm anti-cop, but let's not get carried away with the notion that they actually protect anybody.

"if you don't have a police officer show up within 5 minutes of you placing the call."
You're right, I live in a large-ish city and I have plenty of experience with calling 911.
Once again, I'm not saying this to put down cops but even if they do show up within 5 minutes, that's not fast enough to protect anybody.
What they do at that point is tape off the crime scene take a report.
Solve crimes maybe, protect someone - rare.
