One of ours gets stuck on the 3 different sets of measuring cups. Why do we have 3 full sets? No one knows!

I'm afraid of heights. I don't know why I climbed a tree.

We can't really do that, at least not where I am. Denying a request has to be based on it being information that we genuinely can't release to anyone, we can't just determine we're not releasing something because the requestor is a pain in the ass. We also can't charge people unless it takes more than 2 hours of time per request - depending on how the requests are split up, they may not meet that time. I don't know how FOIA fees work, so maybe it's different, but I also doubt fees will put the very- well-funded Heritage Foundation off too much.

"Fun" fact, criminal justice records are often subject to different rules than other records. In CO, we have 3 days to respond, or up to 10 if the request is so large that it needs an extension. The police, on the other hand, seem to just fart around forever. FOIA has a longer response time, but I'm guessing most federal agencies don't get the leeway cops do, so getting a ton of these malicious requests back to back is a real pain in the dick. Speaking from experience, I'm glad I'm not the one dealing with these assholes.

"You have to enforce a law that says creditors can't discriminate, but you can't talk about discrimination." Sure, Gym. How about shut the fuck up for once in your life. We already know you're a tire fire in human form, you don't have to keep proving it.

My coworker told me I "seem like a Jill Stein voter" the other day as a compliment. I sent him this AMA after explaining exactly why that's not a compliment. I don't think he knew much about her except that something called the Green Party sounds really great and progressive, right? Except Jill Stein is a fucking shill who has no interest in making this country better for anyone but herself and the people who pay her to be a spoiler.

Oh motherfucker. Had I known, I would've picked Grazer to win instead of Chunk on my bracket even though Chunk is objectively massive.

Oh you mean Anna Paulina Mayerhofer, whose whole background is up for debate, is a liar and a hypocrite? That's shocking.

There are plenty of racists in the queer community, unfortunately. I mean, we've all seen the Log Cabin Republicans acting shocked about the leopards eating their faces, but there's plenty of casual racism, too.

That's also me. I basically never pay full price - I put games on my wishlist knowing I probably won't even look at them again for a couple of years.

I don't necessarily care about fewer episodes if the story is still good, but the long waits mean I've hit the point where I generally won't bother to watch something until it's over. I don't feel like investing myself if I don't know when/if the next part is coming, so now I wait until every season is out to start watching.

Nah, money makes you look young, but it also seems to turn a lot of people into real assholes. Tbh, though, I think people are mistaking handsome for youthful - I don't really think either of them look any younger in the face than Walz, it's just the hair.
