  1. Prii? Prium? Many much Prius?
  2. Seconded. These aren't fresh from the tree like I had in LA, but they work great in a pinch. Bonus is you can pour the powder into a can as well

    Not sure the lower church attendance is such a great thing: White Southern Evangelicals Are Leaving the Church: Data suggests that, when their attendance drops, these nominal Christians become hyper-individualistic, devoted to law and order, cynical about systems, and distrustful of others.
  4. Awww... Putin's getting his stuff blown up? Crimea river...
  5. Giving diaper privilege to those who attend Bible studies certainly tracks, since both the diapers and this idea are full of shit.
  6. What an effing loon....
  7. I think they're Crocs...
  8. Not a gun guy, but I found this interesting: The Gun Industry Created a New Consumer. Now It’s Killing Us.
  9. It's not just religious zealotry that drives this, but a self centeredness that's at the heart of much of American life. Even if it's not a "I don't want other people to do things I don't like", we all have a little bit of "I don't want my money to be spent so that other people can do things that I don't like" in us. In this case, people with copious amounts of money feel even more territorial about it, and have the leverage to make everyone else's life miserable.
  10. That's the one I've been waiting for- I know him, and his family, from another life. Always angry, always looking for someone to blame and someone else to take advantage of
  11. So freaking cool- my understanding is that when you touch the nose/snout of a shark, you short circuit all of the bioelectrical sensors they use to hunt prey. That being said, I have no interest in testing "things I learned on the Discovery Channel" anytime soon
  12. Wait... So when we comment 'thigh' on a photo hereabouts, we're really saying "fetus"? That certainly changes some of my... Uh... Viewing habits.
  13. That's one of the places I agree with you. These passages aren't 'law', but seem to be taken as such by modern folks with a need for selective inerrancy.
  14. While I agree with you in a number of ways, many pro-life persons from Judeo-Christian frameworks will point to texts in the Psalms and Prophets (specifically Jeremiah) to support their "from conception" perspective. (I'd also note that, for Christians, this might be extended to include a passage from the Gospel of Luke)
  15. Water polio, then?
  16. Same for beets.... There was a comedian/podcaster (Carolla?) that said restaurants needed to give a red wristband to people who ordered beets, so they'd remember and not freak out the next day.
  17. Well, Gary Indiana has always been a bit freaky...
