My neighbor just tried to use his leaf blower to blow snow off his truck. It didn't budge. That's some wet, heavy snow.

Dangling modifier. It's unclear and should be rewritten.

I think ultimately the thing that should be remembered is that this was the deal where a certain group of politicians started caring about "the deficit" again. Can't give money to people who truly need it, gotta worry about that deficit. If only a brilliant musical satirist had predicted this behav...

So how would the postmodernism philosophy, in a practical sense, gain actual traction to oppose science? It’s one thing to say people were born one way and want to be something else, so they can change. You’re dealing with a person’s feelings and how they identify. That’s abstract. But putting abst...

This reads to me like mothers in the 80's complaining about explicit lyrics and how those are going to warp their children's minds. I'm just waiting for the "won't someone think of th choldren?!?!"

Say, "Trans women aren't actually women" to those on the left and watch a huge portion of them deny easily observable facts. Shyster, to me, what we call trans people is far less of an issue than believing that the President of the United States was born in Kenya when there is overwhelming evidence...

I used to use butter on the bread for grilled cheese. Then I saw a recommendation to use mayonnaise. Game changer. It's way better.

In 20 years most people will be comfortable allowing others to define their own self. It's not that people are trying to define themselves. I don't care what people call themselves. Identify as an eggplant. I don't care. But that's not where folks are stopping. Rather, they are trying to redefine a...

I don't think there really is a comparison to be made here. One side of the isle is MUCH more crazy than the other side right now. Sure there are crazy lefties but I don't see the wholesale assault on truth that I see from a huge chunk of the right. I know a LOT of people that believe Obama was bor...

No, that doesn’t mean it’s the end of democracy, but there have been some chinks put in the armor, more so than any time in recent memory. What chinks?

Yet. It seems like you’re far more oppositional to the left. And I don’t think it’s believable to think this is just a counterweight to make sure we don’t get too high on our own supply. At the moment I will concede that I am more oppositional to the left, because I view the left as the bigger thre...

And I'm not sure how the Left is any less interested in Government overreach than the Right. There is just a disagreement over what overreach to do. For instance should a public non-profit, say for instance, The Little Sisters of the Poor be forced to include birth control in their health plan? The...
