Posts you had second thought about and decided not to post - put them here

But you cut off half my sentence to make your zing work. I also don't think her record in government shows moderation or her record in the primary shows pragmatism.

me in 2020 "no fuck it, let's go get the guillotine set up, chop chop"

^ yes

I've also changed from "if the royal family are really of such benefit to tourism, they should be transferred to a nature reserve where people can view them, and the admission fees used to fund preservation of native flora" to "they should be set on fire in a big pile to provide warmth for homeless people, before the latter move into the palaces"

(that one was 2012)

If y'all are going to keep having sensible discussions on here how's anybody supposed to get a snide appeal for "tolerance" in?

Fped for “y’all”

Sorry Dad

His dead kid indicates a humility and openness to change?

It's uh quite something to read this thread if you've a working memory of Gamergate.

Not everyone being rude online is women being driven from their literal homes by people who then made careers out of soft-soaping the fash, if not joining them entirely.

Good to know!

Feeling BOLD and PROGRESSIVE but SMART and REASONABLE is like crack for yuppies.

Spend hours and hours throwing out inane arguments, apparently?

HELEN: I want to know what you did to this guy that he's after you.

JERRY: I didn't do anything.

HELEN: Well you must have done something.

JERRY: No, he just doesn't like me.

HELEN: Doesn't like you? How can anyone not like you?

JERRY: You know, it seems impossible.

HELEN: Doesn't like you? How can that be?

JERRY: Ma, I know this may be hard for you to understand but I am sure there are many people who do not like me.

HELEN: Huh, Jerry, don't say that.

JERRY: It's true.

HELEN: No, it's not true. You're a wonderful, wonderful boy. Everybody likes you. It's impossible not to like you. Impossible. Morty?

MORTY: Maybe some people don't like him. I could see that.
