It's so,strange that US gun violence has INCREASED as gun laws increased in number and restrictiveness.

What a terrible burden it must be to be the only generation to have disappointment, not be able to,afford everything you'd like, and not be handed a perfect world by the previous generation.

It's ok to,walk slow, but why do you slowpokes have to walk four across? Let people get by!

But is this typical? Or is she comparing the very Best of one group to the absolute worst of the other group?

Can't help but notice that what used to be called a centrist political position is now "far right." As we've voted farther and farther to the left, things have gotten progressively worse.

One example, not,economic, is how students used to bring hunting rifles to school to leave on a hunting trip straight from there. Nobody shot up a school. Now, after decades of MORE LAWS, gun violence is higher, and the "solution" is more laws for the law-abiding to obey, but the law breakers are willing to break seven or eight instead of just five.

But, yeah, keep voting for more "free stuff" like health insurance or college tuition or generous welfare benefits for illegal immigrants, and imagine that it'll be paid for by taxing "the rich."

Now you Millenials know how Boomers feel when we point out the illogic of something and you have to retreat to your safe space, and allow all view points in the name of "diversity"...except the view points that make you feel bad.

"Find them, YOU FOOLS!"

Just remember to enjoy your years of getting a dual major in 19th century folk dance and grievance studies, then bitch about how the engineering grads are getting much more and better job offers than you are.

OK, guys...please tell me I'm not the only one...

...doesn't this look like AOC?

Possibility: The workers are moving stuff from inside the building so it can be demolished, and have taken out the statue first, setting it there to be picked up with the other things that were in the area undamaged by the fire and smoke.

Q: Why was it such a surprise when this happened?

A: Because such a thing had never entered his head before!

Can't waste time picking up our garbage, we gotta get to the environmental protest to complain about some company that actually uses evil PLASTIC BAGS AND STRAWS!!!

So...All these countries that take in Muslim immigrants is having problems? Or weren't we supposed to notice that, and imagine instead that socialism is supposed to bring peaceful bliss?

Alternatively, people who are really or live in "bad" areas typically don't have a lot of nature or relaxing type of surroundings, so it's not the green necessarily causing problems but indicating the presence of the actual causes. So, getting some green parks into a poor area may not have any positive effects.

But, as always, "scientists say that..." <some bizarre conclusion not supported by the facts> when in reality some scientists made a study that the media misinterpreted.

That blonde chick wore white to someone else's wedding?

"Scientists aren't sure why a stump won't sink" but also
"Scientists say that Global Warming is going to destroy the world in 12 years."

It takes days to work, not minutes or hours. Plus, you need to,avoid red meat and coffee for those couple days as well.

I have paper like that from back when war games were played on paper instead of computers. A hex pattern is more realistic for move,net than squares...with squares, to go four squares forward and three squares left takes seven moves, but with hex it's more like following a line so the number of moves is more realistic.

I'm glad he won, but isn't that all part of "business?" One side tries to maximize what they'll get and so does the other? Sears took on a risk that the invention wouldn't take off, and the risk paid off because the ratchet did prove popular. But there are tons of things that get tooled up at no minor cost and distributed but the thing just doesn't catch on. Also, if the value of the invention was so clear, didn't someone else offer him more?

Since he won, maybe Sears misrepresented their side of the negotiations, but it seems naive to think that anybody buying something off you is going to have your interests at heart.

SJWs: It's terrible that people hunt for sport, even though the fees pay for most of the wildlife conservation costs.

Also SJWs: This Native American tribe NEEDS to hunt and kill this particular kind of endangered whale because their ancestors did, even though their ancestors didn't have outboard motor powered boats or guns that shoot the harpoons.

Or, you can remember what side your gas cap is on, and drive next to the pump with that side facing it.

1. When they find ever more ancient scrolls from what became the Jewish or Christian bibles, or writings that let them translate items they already have but can't understand (like the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls), they find an amazing level of consistency.

2. This guy finds a way to denigrate the beliefs of people whose book tends to encourage them to be better people even by worldly standards (although certainly some are doing a really bad job of it). He doesn't have anything to say about the religions whose book says to harm or kill non-believers. Huh, wonder why.

3. As I've been around the world doing volunteer work, it's only Christians who ever have hospitals or well digging programs or clinics or whatever that they put on for the benefit of "the masses." Other groups only help thief own people, or believe that if something's wrong in your life, it was brought on you by your own actions or those of your parents/ancestors, so it would violate karma to help you.

Spider web? Maybe they meant a Harvard SOCIAL Scientist, who spent all his/her/its/their time in Gender Studies and didn't have time for math and physics.

That person is SO stupid! It's called an ENGINE, not a motor.

Engines are driven by fuel, motors by electricity.

So the black is the bad? Racists.

Fire bugs? Lightning flies?

It,could be in the way you ask it...some people (not just teens) seem to always ask their questions as if they're exposing some flaw in your knowledge.

Weird...looks like a picture of the moon next to some old building.

Also, when someone asks me to fix something electrical (I'm a mechanical engineer at an electronics company), they always say, "I think it's a short." No, if it were "a short," the circuit breaker or fuse would have tripped. It's actually probably an "open," which is the opposite of a short. Tell me what the symptoms are, what happened right before, during and after the problem occurred, and what changes you made between when the thing worked and when it didn't. From fixing things on people's cars, the description is often really bad, like "the instruments suddenly went out while I was driving," when in actuality they turned the brightness all the way down accidentally, so it didn't happen while they were looking at the instruments as their story went.

You have to get the correct fit. If you just buy the brand based on commercials or what your friends like, you may not get the correct combination of waist, hips, butt, leg room, and crotch height. For me, Levi's never fit at all and Wranglers were worse. Lee or Sedgefield in a 32-34 fit my football,player butt and legs without being huge in the waist. Levis seem like they're designed for someone with what is medically termed "Noassatall.."

Neil Armstrong was the commander of Apollo 11, first man to set foot on the moon in 1969. Jim Lovell was commander of the ill-fated Apollo 13.

Me: Are you going to church with us this morning?
Teenage Daughter: I can't....I'm too sick.
Me: It's a beautiful sunny day, do you feel well enough to help me pick up sticks so I can mow the lawn?
TD: OMG, dad, I'm soooo sick.
Me: I'm fixing something on your car (actually, the car I bought and pay the insurance and gas on), can you hold the flashlight for me?
TD: Dad, I told you I'm toooooo sick!
Phone: {buzzes with incoming text message}
TD: Dad, Kristen's having a party, can I go?
Me: I thought you were too sick.
TD: OMG, you're the worst dad in the world. You're ruining my LIFE!!!

Am l weird for thinking this would be a cool thing to be able to do for my wife for one day?

He also did a great job of playing anther top-notch character in Homicide: Life On The Street. But whatever network that was on kept changing the day it showed, then semi-canceled it for a while, then brought it back, then canceled it for good because there weren't enough people watching it. So, we lost an excellent show with good stories and good characters.

also, with people getting on the various bandwagons for sea salt, Himalayan salt, etc., people are starting to get iodine deficiencies, which iodized table salt was designed to correct. But there's no iodine in these designer salts, or in the salt that is added to snacks like chips.

That saying came from one of Bill Clinton's "apologies" for one of the various times getting caught in illegal activities...I think the time he fired the White House travel staff and installed his Arkansas friends in doing those functions. He didn't even admit to making mistakes, as in "I made mistakes" or "we made mistakes;" It was all passive, like it was uncontrollable as the weather or something.

I grew up,in the 1960s/1970s, plus moved to a different town after college. So, no internet record of my stupid stuff plus nobody here even saw or heard about it.

18 year olds during WWII: Invade Sicily and Normandy, defeat tyranny, face horror.
18 year olds nowadays: Safe space, trigger warnings, anyone who might have different ideas and say them out loud us a Nazi.

Yeah, WW2 was really insensitive.
