Geraldo groping Bette Midler. Good Call Michael!!!
Does Matt Lauer’s junk go down to the floor? I mean, when he’s showing it off, is it as a warning, “Baby, you couldn’t handle this, if you know what I mean?” If not, why does he think any woman would want to see it. I don’t think that gay men even want to see that. It isn’t something good looking. It’s functional, but ugly. There is a reason the sex act is known as “bumping uglies.” Why in Cod’s name would any man do that? He bought sex toys? Did he ever think that maybe more traditional items might work better? A bit of candy? Maybe flowers? Maybe a cute stuffed animal? A bottle of wine? He’s sixty years old and has yet figure out that most women like a bit of romance? Dropping trou is not romantic.
In another conversation here, I just learned that an eggplant emoji is a signal the kids are using as a phallic symbol. As in, “I’d like to send you (Eggplant) pics.” What is wrong with these people? There are plenty of very beautiful parts of both the male and female forms (provided the guy is in better shape than me, whose body is always hidden for a reason). And in the case of most guys, they clean up well. Send her a picture of how you look in a Tuxedo, guys.
Or just in a suit and tie. That is so much more attractive than seeing your sex organs.
The college from which you graduate is a proxy for the score on the IQ test that a prospective employer is not permitted to give you, due to “disparate impact“. This is why parents try to get their kids into the most prestigious schools they can. What useless buncombe they may or may not learn in those schools is largely irrelevant.
By now, of course, employers have factored in the affects of affirmative action, so they know that (e.g.) a Black graduate of Yale is not the same as an Asian graduate of Yale. That employers understand this is, according to the New York Times, “proof of continuing racism”.
Michael, you said you hoped that John McCain would prove you wrong about him? Well he did. I’ll await your apology to Senator McCain in tomorrow’s podcast.
Brilliant, @michaelgraham Michael! I am totally stealing that line, and if anyone asks, I will gladly give you full credit – with an assist to Mark Hemingway.
If anyone asks.
The vote has been pushed back until later this morning. After the vote occurs, I will personally be happy to apologize to Senator McCain that I suspected he would never do the right thing on this. But until the vote is taken, it’s only reports of his word, and neither the reports nor his word are worth much in my estimation. I’ll believe it the vote is passed.
There’s a lot that can happen before it’s signed into law. There remain many ways for this bill to go south.
Remember, Justice Roberts wrote the majority opinion AND most of the primary dissent in the first Obamacare SCOTUS case. Minds can change. Votes can change.
When the final bill is passed and is on the president’s desk and (if) Sen. McCain has voted for it, I will ABSOLUTELY give him a sincere apology. And if McCain doesn’t screw the GOP, I will be far more happy to be wrong than right.
Thank you–sincerely–for holding me accountable.
