Nice of you to say. I’ll take “attack newt” any day.

I have a severe allergy to bullshit, so it’s mainly in my own self interest to shovel it out as much as possible….although I never dreamed it might become so much work. Some days I feel like Hercules tasked to clean King Augeas’ stables without the benefit of the strength to redirect rivers.

I would love to grab a pint with you and talk some shit, even though I don’t drink much. The same offer extends to you if you are ever in Northern California.

Hey, newt. I think this so often, but say it so rarely... thank you for your constant refuting of bullshit here. I often (internally) refer to you as The Sift's own attack-newt, and if you ever find yourself in Ireland I'd be honoured to get you a pint and talk shite with you for hours on end.

As you like to say over there, thank you for your service.

My Wife vs. Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream Lock

luxintenebris says...

know this was humor but if he was serious about security, could have used a catfish bait container (counterfeit packaging) to camouflage the goods. maybe even dip into the pseudo pint in front of her. might be funny.

like putting the alpo label on a can of refried beans. always get an 'ewww!' when i test it to see if it's still good.

Or a towel:

"You got a towel with you?" said Ford Prefect suddenly to Arthur.
Arthur, struggling through his third pint, looked round at him.
"Why? What, no... should I have?" He had given up being surprised, there didn't seem to be any point any longer.
Ford clicked his tongue in irritation.

I would imagine there is great utility in always having a scarf around.

Why can i not go to the pub!?

bareboards2 says...

I must admit to being shocked 20 years ago or so when going to a pub and seeing all the little pub tables covered in various states of pint glass levels -- and baby bottles. Baby bottles next to beer covered tables. She has a point -- her friend got to go to the pub! For her daddy's party!

I will say, though, that for what pretty much amounts to an ad for the stuff, the pours are terrible. As an Irish Guinness drinker what he did to that poor pint around 2:57 made me physically wince.

Detroit Lt. Arrested For DUI

Jinx says...

God, if he really had a pint of alcohol as blood then a) wow can he ever hold his liquor and b) he dead now c) explains why they were reluctant to tase him - woulda been quite a fireball.

Suicide Bombings and Islam: An Apologist's Guide

RFlagg says...

Thank you @enoch, I was trying to figure a way of replying on how there isn't a denial that a minority of Muslims believe in suicide bombing, but that it isn't as widespread and exclusive to Islam as the far right make it out to be. You summed it up pretty well.

I was also going to add all the abortion clinic bombings and the Atlanta Centennial Olympic Park bombing... all Christian and being done in the name of Christ. Then in Ireland/UK with the IRA... though that one isn't just religion and is more political (though again, many of those political differences has to do with worshiping Christ the wrong way).

There are militant Buddhist too, who do very violent and aggressive acts against others.

And there are plenty on the left who decry Islam, look at Sam Harris by example who argues the danger of Islam a great deal.

I agree, that we need to address the underlying political issues... and sometimes just need to let things go. There is a big civil war going on the middle east between denominations of Islam, and we are picking a side, which in turn makes us a target of the other side. We ignore the fact that the goal of terrorist groups is to make it an "us vs them" world, so that it makes it easier to recruit potentially radicalizeable people. I hear Christians bemoan how Christianity must be true because of all the persecution, proves Satan is trying to push Christianity down, but then they have zero empathy for how it must feel for a Muslim, and the persecution they feel, and how that must make them feel they are the right one for the same exact reasoning.

The fact so many Christians are not only willing, but calling for a war, for a new Crusade basically, shows that Christians are just as easily radicalized. They may not be strapping bombs to their chests yet, but I'd guess if they were in a Muslim country and felt they were being repressed, then I'd wager they'd be more than willing to engage in suicide bombs.

The pint being, yes, some Muslims do engage in suicide bombs, but it isn't just them. Christians have done it plenty in the past, and will undoubtedly return to it again, especially as the more radicalized and violent portion of them become normalized here in the US thanks to the election of Trump who encouraged them all through his campaign.

Detroit Lt. Arrested For DUI

Mordhaus says...

At .15 you would have around half a pint of alcohol in your system, so at .28 he would have around a pint of alcohol circulating in his blood. The average male has around 10 pints of blood total. My math was off obviously, as he would have 1/10th of his blood as alcohol, not 5/20.

vil said:

Mordhaus: not sure how you measure it in the USofA but my guess is it must be .28 percent, that would be 2.8 parts per thousand over here which is a good score but not quite lethal.
