    She trapped the entire senior class that attended prom in the gymnasium, then killed them all with her mind. Even River Tam couldn't do that.

    How’s that? Someone’s got to actually bring goods to convenient locations for customers (and in convenient quantities), and it’s far from a core competency of most producers. Might have a point with car dealerships though, since they’re required in many states to be a middleman.

    Depends. Republican school? Most of the attendees wouldn't be THAT distinguishable from Reavers.

    Possibly more insane.

    We're not paying for any additional value. Just a place holder.

    ETA: The textbook definition confuses me. What does it mean to you?

    I think you're missing the point. Both of them.

    It's interesting that UA doesn't think kids should be taught about sexuality, but is getting hard over a girl who had literally only had her first period within days of the incident he's fapping over.

    Still playing a 15-year old kid, if we go by the novels.

    No, the probable first is much worse than that. I was not watching Mickey Mousercise to get fit.

    Just going to mention that the movie American Beauty came out in 1999, and Thora Birch, who had a topless scene in the movie was born in 1982. I'll let y'all do the math on that one, and then remember that shooting was probably completed 6 months before the film was released.

    Not usually.

    They provide a service for people that adds value to the products.

    Sure I could coordinate with other people to order supplies in large bulk and collect them from suppliers, but the amount of time, investment, and planning involved means I'm more than happy to pay a little bit more per product to have them available from a store at my convenience.

    Indeed. One of my annoyances about things moving to the internet is in the difficulty of finding things where you have only a sketchy idea of what you're looking for. In a retail environment (or when you've been sent a paper catalog), you can flip around and stumble across the exact thing that you're looking for. But if you only have a vague idea of what you're looking for, then it's an absolute bitch trying to find things.

    For example, I saw an article on how to build a teardrop camper that was written in the 1930s. It had an interesting tail light in the picture, but the article didn't mention what kind of tail light it was that they used to build the trailer. You go to an automotive parts site, and you have to key in things like the make, model, and year of tail light that you're looking for. You can't just look at all tail lights by all manufacturers from 1930 to 1940. If you had a catalog from an auto parts company (back when they were sending out catalogs), you could flip to the tail lights section of the catalog and just start skimming until you found the one you were looking for.

    More from the "Republicans weirdly fixated on the sexuality of teenage girls" files.

    From Wonkette:

    Very Moral Pundit Matt Walsh Pretty Sure Teen Girls Just Made For Banging

    In one of the best episodes of "The X-Files," Fox Mulder argues that the mysterious "men in black" deliberately "behave strangely so that if anyone tries to describe an encounter with them, they come off sounding like a lunatic." The over-the-top antics were a successful strategy for obfuscating their sinister agenda.

    I wonder if the same isn't true of many obvious rightwing trolls. It's easy to dismiss someone like Matt Walsh who rants about mermaid race science. He's so extreme, liberals will insist he's just an attention-grabbing "shock jock," a wannabe Howard Stern. But what if he actually means everything he says? He's not repulsive for ratings or a big payday. He's just genuinely repulsive, and unfortunately, there's an audience for his garbage...​

    tl;dr version of the story: Conservative radio host rants about how teenage pregnancy isn't the problem, the problem is that the girls ought to be married, and starts going on about how it's ridiculous to consider 16- and 17-year-old girls young because that's when they're "technically most fertile" ...

    I wonder by what percentage being a Trumper increases one's likelihood of having a Google history dominated by searches for "jailbait porn."

    the blog JoeMyGod posts every story of a Christian leader accused/arrested/charged/convicted of sexual offenses commonly used to accuse others and every such story I see I tag on Twitter and Facebook with #DayEndingInY - and indeed, for every day no such story comes to my opinion there's at least one with two or three or four even.

    I'll wager any through search will turn up 4-500 unique cases every year. Strangely enough, you might need multiple years to turn up a similar offense by any variation of gender non-conforming person.

    Hey Billy do you think communist regimes can be oppressive and that folks fleeing them should be able to apply for asylum?

    Do you think people fleeing this oppression and applying for asylum via the legal process are ‘illegals’?

    Because our immigration system is complicated, I can’t answer this with a yes or no response. I’d say it depends on the circumstances.

    Okay.

    What about the Constitution of the United States of America?

    Do you think that the government should follow it?
