Maybe Bob IS Weldon Bynum?

Just a passing thought, nothing constructive to add.

Love the anger quote. Mark Twain, you say? You sure? :-)

not going to research this for you, but there is no way of telling what the professor is referring to. he is being serious? facetious? it's like walking into the middle of a conversation, with no reference point.

no points for the very short video with no subsistent context, nor the attempt to poison the well.

dude. please.

“Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.” - Mark Twain

that's the perfect response.

why bother the bothered. (not buying bob)

The trouble ain't that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain't distributed right. - More Maxims of Mark, Johnson, 1927 [Mark Twain]

why from now on your nickname is " lightnin' "

"No amount of evidence will ever persuade an idiot" - Mark Twain

“Life is short, break the rules. Forgive quickly, kiss slowly. Love truly. Laugh uncontrollably and never regret anything that makes you smile.” -Mark Twain.

"Daddy?"

"Yes, son?"

"What does regret mean?"

"Well, son, a funny thing about regret is that it's better to regret something you have done, than to regret something you haven't done."

"And by the way, if you see your mom this weekend, be sure and tell her …"

Ian Welsh reminds us of a quote by Mark Twain:

There were two ‘Reigns of Terror’, if we could but remember and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passions, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon a thousand persons, the other upon a hundred million; but our shudders are all for the horrors of the momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty and heartbreak? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief terror that we have all been so diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror – that unspeakable bitter and awful Terror which none of us has been taught to see in its vastness or pity as it deserves.

Mark Twain was clean? Seriously?

Free people can tell more good jokes than people enslaved (limited) by ideology.

What is a "better" joke or a "better" comedian anyway?

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

Wow. Congratulations. This was about the most ignorant rant I've read on the Sift in all my years here. If I might offer some advice for the future:

Proverbs 17:28 - Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

Or in more modern terms: "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt." (attributed to several people including Lincoln, Mark Twain, and Silvan Engel)

He kind of turned into Mark Twain, just without the white suit.
