ya, he pronounces it like 'mal' from malicious, not mol like molify. Is this a UK vs US thing?

Well we seem to be devolving into miscommunication, so let's all be clear! bareboards2, I was not singling you out at all. In fact, you have by and large been the image of civility, so much so that I picture you with a monocle while writing your missives to us.

I too think that MonkeySpank (god help us all) seems to have the most historical and accurate interpretation of the situation; one does not traumatize a people, be they Jews or African Americans for decades and decades and decades and then expect them to up and happily integrate. There's a reckoning that has to happen, and I am sorry if your lilly white ass didn't personally own slaves, you were born into a societal architecture created by those who did and you can't pretend the playing field is level. You can stare at your voting right's act, you can belly ache about how Ashley with her 3.5 didn't get into U State university while a minority did, but it doesn't change the fact that that there's a lot of redress to be done, and it'll take a LONG time to remedy. We have some signs of improvement, with prominent African American politicians and intellectuals taking the stage and garnering universal respect, but that's the tip of the iceberg, and we have a LONG way to go.

Regardless, the conversation has been relatively civil, so we should do our best to keep it that way. It can still be a good conversation, especially if someone says something you don't quite get, ask them about it, rather than just paper over them with some dubiously constructed impression based on an inflexible stance that impairs your imagination.

In Russia, if you haf $100k automobiles, you must still use potato phone.

Cool concept, douchiest voice over in advertising history?

Its nearly as if women can be stupid and horny too!

You know that when THIS guy is the voice of reason, the country needs to reevaluate its choices.

Although it is comedy and my critique is not meant in any serious way, I think some of those pitfalls are not about adulthood, but just being a bit too bourgeois. Vegetable spiralizers probably are not the hallmark of being an adult, but more of having too much disposable income and being part of a consumerist mindset.

You don't think that Trump won't make an unfair system even worse? Do you know what kind of scam operations he runs? Read up on Trump University, and if you don't think a mind like his won't immediately start eroding the as of yet intact elements of our government, then I have a bridge in the bay area to sell you. Not to mention that Scalia is not my definition of 'bright' by any standard. Bloviating quasi intellectual douchenozzle, sure, but not exactly a contributor to constitutional scholarship.

Hillary will be a boring drag; an uninspired and predictable apparatchik, but not remotely as harmful as the narcissistic psychopathy that's absofuckinglutely going to get us into severe confrontations around the globe that a Trump administration would bring.

Think about it. Yesterday the Russians put out a sabre-rattling presser about a US destroyer in the Black Sea (its international waters). Under Obama or Clinton, I can be pretty confident that any ruffled feathers will be smoothed and that things won't escalate. With Trump, if he has a bad morning because the viagra didn't kick in on time, or Ivana talks back or whatever, god knows what his decisions would be.

Fukin' dilos.

Or after their domestic squabble, chase it down for round 2. That thing probably is miles from the herd by now.

I guess Aussies don't use the expression 'ear worm'. It's not exclusively a German term, we use it in the US all the time.

Cenk for VP?

This was amazing. Why have I never heard of them!?

Don't forget that some of this country's greatest liberals, including Mark Twain, were southerners with accents and warts and all.
