I have a beard

BECAUSE my wife hates it. What's she gonna do? Get angrier? Not possible.

Back in the day they'd egg Nixon's limo

Now people don't even give that much of a shit about Bush. And sadly for us we'll have him around as an ex President for decades.

So let's review

It rides like crap, it's underpowered, it has a crap transmission (why on earth are you shifting an auto anyway???), it's missing a seat and it gets the same mileage as my 4 door Camry.

But it's cute as fuck, a nerd chick magnet and you can park it.

So in short - the greatest benefit of the Smart car is when you're not using it and it's not running.

Awesome.

I'm sorry you have not received the memo. Jews bad, Israel is the worstest nation ever to blight the surface of the world. Dems won't be happy until they drive off all the Jews so then they have someone to demonize when they lose in November.

Riiiiight

Because when two teenagers are together and they are caught having sex, the girl's damaged reputation is so much worse than the boy going to jail.

Original article: Could be Biden time

Jesus Christ Walter just get a Ouija Board already

We're up to Biden now? What's he? Perfect VP candidate #8 or 9? What on God's Grey Earth is wrong with you people? The same shortlist of short-bus riders from 2000 and 2004. No wonder you always lose. You gave up having a new thought decades ago. Everyone knows Biden will blurt out some crazy shit on Meet the Press. I just wonder who's more retarded, him or you?

50/50 she grows up to never vote

Just like half of everyone else.

Traduced!

A classmate of my son, a minor, was convicted of a fourth degree sexual felony for snapping a girls bra in the HS school corridor. So, yes, not everyone lives on Mt. Hippy with the tofu and Smart cars and gay marriage.

I am a 2x survivor

My spouse survived an exotic form of CA that has never before been seen.

Get over yourself. People get sick people get better people die. Don't waste a lot of time whining about it.

Klytus what do you consider a tiny fraction?

20%? And here we're told day after day after day of super human inscrutable Jew power so that 1.2 million are so powerful they run the whole world. Why else would Salon devote 10% of its total effort and column inches to the mystery that is those darn super powerful goverment/world/media/banking dominating hyper Jews?

BTW why does Salon always go back to Greg Levey? Haven't they heard of anyone else? I thought journalism was about balance.

Anyway long story boring, The Ultibama of the Barackaverse will conquer all.

speeder

Effectively getting a life sentence is awesome, especially when you're a minor. I have yet to hear how little miss sunshine mounting a boy in public even comes close to ever being branded, legally, as a sexual predator, for life. Face facts, the notion of a double standard doesn't even come close to approximately how insanely unfair this all is.

All this daily affirmation bullshit

I am sick to death of listening to people tell me about their personal agony of having successfully gotten through things like this. Endless goddamn navel gazing. What about me talking about thinking about feeling about talking about thinking about feeling about me me me me me.

For god's sake you mope, go work with AIDS babies or something. Rescue a dog.

Subaru 360?

66mpg. By the end of the series in the early '70's it had a 36hp engine. Mentioned elsewhere as a 'keicar'. These were eventually replaced with the R-2 then the Rex then the new R-2/R-1 which you can get today.

There's maybe 2 dozen marquees of keicar class cars in the world today mostly in Japan, China and India

BY the way, the Smart Fortwo is ALSO a keicar similar class vehicle. It's one of only two that doesn't exploit the full length allowed by the keicar class restrictions. It happens to be a modified Mercedes Benz A-Class City Car (which were pulled from the market after it was discovered they were dangerously unsafe in swerve tests). This is the root of the car's poor handling.

Moreover the key reason that the Smart has poor mileage is because it has an engine that is almost 30% larger than most engines in the keicar class. the Benz/Brabus powerplant was replaced with a Mitsubishi engine this year.

Biden refused to endorse Richard Clarke's charges

Biden refused to accept or endorse Richard Clarke's charges of Bush idiocy, intelligence manipulation in the run up to the Iraq war. That's a matter of the public record.

lynnielou7

you sound like a micromanaging ninny nanner with a narcissist complex who utterly can't understand why you are worshiped for your pearls of wisdom. I don't really feel sorry for you but I hope you've found a home here in navel gazing pulse checking how am I how am I land here.

The Jewish 'Problem'

Gee where have I heard that phrase before? Well thank god I can easily emigrate to 3 different countries in very short time if I have to. I really don't like riding in cattle cars like you folks have planned.

Frankly I am shocked

Shocked I tell you at the shape of the blue outline of the illegal zionist imperialist infection upon the world in that picture. It includes the West Bank. I demand an immediate warcrimes trial for the evil person who perpetrated that dastardly deed upon the peaceful peaceloving people of peace.

AJordan

I find your faux concern laughable. I bet none of you ever lifted a finger in real life to help anyone. Chock full of nonsensical cyber hand-wringing though.

Original article: The meaning of Starbucks

Is this the thread

Where everyone screams and complains about Starbucks or is it the thread where everyone screams and complains about the demon brew, coffee or is this the thread where everyone chirps up with their own 'better than Startbucks' command?
