I’m not really into soccer, and some World Cup games are coming to my city, but this will absolutely not encourage me to see what it’s all about.

I feel like this is a lot of it. A general mistrust of any authority, and it’s a way to feel smarter than you are (by “understanding” something and being able to “teach” people who don’t get it.) And until the unvaccinated population reaches a certain threshold, they won’t be proven wrong.

You should respond by asking them a deeply personal medical question about themselves.

I would probably respond with “yes, because I understand math, statistics, and biomedical research, since I have a biomedical engineering Masters degree” and tell them to eff-off. I have poor social skills.

Oof—yeah, they should have never lied to your kid that it’s not going to hurt. I always told mine that, yes, it hurts a little. But if you get sick with the disease, that could mean a *lot* more needle sticks if you get real sick from it and they have to try to save your life.

A very smart man.

We have one that’s 11 years old and one that’s 2 years old. Never going back.

Yeah—I’m at 20k miles and waiting to get my tires rotated now. The only maintenance I’ve had is tire rotation. I asked if I needed anything else done—the dude at the Ford dealership shrugged and said “maybe an air cabin change at 30k, but no, not really.”

His supporters are so blood thirsty that they won’t even consider the Q “what IF these men weren’t drug runners and were actually just fisherman out doing their jobs?” It’s still a huge crime if they were guilty of drug running (though who knows??) If they weren’t, hell is too good for these ppl.

So bombings and mass shootings are now going to be fueled by a big payout—what could possibly go wrong?

Many times, thanks to ADHD. That rush is the best part (until you get surrounded and buried by office supplies.)

That’s why she can’t responsibly answer the Q. Because the answer is that she did nothing to boost sales on a book because her writing skills aren’t up to snuff.

Apparently, the opposite of “woke” is “sleeping.”

Ugh...it sounds like work to have to read that. Glad it isn't my job!

The ads against him in his next election are just going to be clips of him saying this over and over.

Fuck that clown. I visited Minneapolis once for a conference and one of the things that I remember from the trip was the learning about the Somali community and how they came to be settled there. Every single one of them that I interacted with was warm and loving (and the food was delicious!)

He is the most accessible—as long as you are a foreign leader lavishing him with gifts and kissing his ass.

How did I know this was going to be linked back to “brown people bad” politics…FFS

They may be promoted as the best, but they most definitely are still hugely expensive. Everything is.

They should lie and always reply “Fox News”
