Fat southern boy shoots home intruder (after missing 11 times) while he was trying to leave with a hamper, and then publicly mocks him.

I think we've hit peak America.

Jesus H loving Christ

And here I thought that the whole point of these bathroom gestapo laws was to make the REAL WOMEN feel comfortable using the ladies room, but here we have a bathroom full of women all telling the security guy to gently caress off, it's fine, that's a girl, and she still gets escorted out. HMMMMM I wonder if there might have been some ulterior motives to these laws??

What state was this? The article doesn't mention.

Edit for top of page: watch this video, look upon our works, ye mighty, and despair.

By REAL WOMEN they mean women in pretty pink dresses with cute little bows in their hair.

All other women need ID to pee.

Oh hey, this popped up in my local Iowa newsfeed: someone's making a deck of women-themed playing cards.

quote:

Donald Trump says the only card Hillary Clinton has is the woman's card. Hillary Clinton says: "Deal me in!"

When my sister Zebby�who is currently finishing her Bachelor's of Fine Arts at the University of Iowa�heard the above exchange between Donald Trump and Secretary Clinton, she almost immediately started sketching "The Woman Card," a playing card-themed portrait of Hillary Clinton featured in the video above and shown below.

This sketch became The Woman Card[s]�a deck of playing cards celebrating American women at a time when we are only going to hear the phrase "The Woman Card" used by Donald Trump more and more often. The deck will feature 13 original, hand-drawn portraits of American women chosen by my sister and me to honor the incredible achievements the women of this country have made. Each woman will appear in all four suits, and yes, this will be a full 54-card deck. (52 cards + Jokers, and no, we don't know who the Jokers will be yet.) This isn't just a novelty, somewhat cheeky deck of cards that are poking fun at Donald Trump�it's a badass deck of cards that, frankly, is the only non-History Channel deck of cards about leading American women that we've been able to find.

The first-edition of the deck will feature thirteen incredible women, who were (or are!) pioneers in their fields, ranging from politics to music to science to humanitarian work. Four quick sketches are below, with many more to come over the next few weeks.

I thought the brother Zach seemed familiar, and that's because he was the guy who gave a short speech to the Iowa House of Representatives 5 years ago about his lesbian parents.

I had a lovely relative post a "Well, actually...." about the bayonet line because we as a country apparently can't stop ordering bayonets.

Anyone with experience in the military found that "b-b-but we still have some bayonets! :byodood:

" poo poo especially annoying because nowadays bayonets mostly get used for mundane tasks like opening MRE packets. Or ceremonies, as pointed out above.

On the flip side, I don't believe a less elegant Obama could have given the Hiroshima speech he did and the nation is better for it.

Too bad half the country will never bother to read/listen to it because they read on facebook that he apologized for dropping the bomb. :sigh:
