Where do you get a surface to air missle?

I don't view this through an epistimological lens, as if suggesting the meaning of "truth" has shifted or that there is some paradigm shift where we n...

Guys, it's official. I won this year's contest already. There's no reason for it to begin. You were all worthy opponents, and I enjoyed the competitio...

I would expect someone who lived there to be frustrated more than anything else because there's no door. The cozy bed that lies within could be heard ...

Peanut is a chihuahua, although it is true goat indigestion can be serious. They've got two stomachs that can go wrong.

It's 4:11 am here. I'm up because Peanut was yelping and we went to the Vet ER. $350 later, I learn he has a stomach ache. So, I woke up not excited.

Agree in part, disagree in part.

Have you thought about going on a coke fueled binger and frantically completing this by the deadline?

Someone must know what they are or they'd have been shot down by now. So far, they've not done anything interesting. My feeling is we work so hard to ...

It's not that it's become more complicated to post our stories since last year. It's that we eliminated the judging element of the contest, so we had ...

What is your view of subscript and superscript? I enjoy it when I type 1st and the st goes up to the top. I consider that quite classy. But if I say s...

Maybe stop being so offensive or questionable.

Curious.

I used Pastebin because @"Baden" told me to in the instructions. I dumped the text from Word into that program and then reformatted it to look right a...

How do you know the prayer was unanswered as opposed to the answer having been no? As to the OP, you should be thankful for nothing to the extent that...

Actually, my first language is Morse Code, consisting entirely of dots and dashes. I spoke exclusively in beeps until I was like 12 when my dad told m...

Then it is.

I think we all probably hate insurers from time to time. Their role is to provide security when the unexpected occurs and it's infuriating when they d...

You're arguing that this instance of first degree murder was perhaps good?

Considering someone is immoral enough to kill someone else for only having allegedly denied a valid insurance claim, it is entirely possible that some...

The issue is that there was a murder. The healthcaee crisis is a non-sequiter to that. The murderer did not address the issue, clarify the issue, or m...

We just agreed on something. First sign of the apocalypse.

You don't think it'd have made the news if the CEO of UHC were black and were gunned down as he was? There was a mafia style hit in the middle of Manh...

Yogi Berra says you should go to other people's funerals so that they'll come to yours. You find the fun in funeral.

This is the only part of your post that made sense to me. You've identified a supposedly new category and freedom is the only example you've provided ...

Good news for everyone. I have a first draft of what I believe will be a fantastic entry.

I am familiar with the scene: https://vimeo.com/163118337?share=copy

I actually do like that it's real and unapologetic, the feeling that it's immutably forged from some formative personal experience and societal reject...

I bring over a discussion from another thread, I'd like to see the socks you guys wear, particularly argyle, but any unusual pattern will do.

If Fred is your uncle, then you're my great-nephew dog, making you 47th in line for the Hanoverian throne, just behind the guy who cleans my gutters.

No venue is inappropriate for kindness, particularly as it pertains to sockage.

Perhaps I'll write of the curious zipper booted man in the argyle socks. He comes and goes without notice, but for leaving his signature sock behind. ...
