Women are actually an alien species. I’ve always said so.
Well, at least it wasn’t $12 million to a dog. That’s a hostile alien species.

Boy, those Zimbabweans are sure lucky they’re no longer under the boot of that oppressive white regime.
Thank God for the U.N. and the international community, or who knows what sort of hell they’d be living in now.

I refuse to accept any alien species in a science fiction story unless their culture is stranger than that of the Japanese. This rule of thumb has stood me in good stead for over 40 years, and it’s still going strong.

Unfortunately, it would seem that they neglected the “and prayer” part.
It had never been designed to “take the place” of law enforcement but had served to “bring people together and raise consciousness,” he added.
Will all of the attempts to “raise consciousness” since that vile phrase was originated in the 60s, you’d think that there wasn’t any higher it could go.

The site is Vegans of Color.
So the semester ended for me here at Vassar, and as all the seniors moved out of their on-campus apartments they threw out a lot food. So my friends and I did the reasonable thing for a bunch of broke students who are working on campus during the summer– we grabbed our backpacks and hit the dumpsters.
I am not making this up.
I don’t think it’s a parody site, but….

Some people don’t deserve to live in a technological society.
The girl’s lawyers claim that MySpace still had a responsibility to protect the girl, even though he doesn’t explain how it can protect a girl who lied about her age and then went off to meet with a much older guy in real life.
I’m sure Shari’a has some appropriate punishment for lawyers like this — cutting their tongue out, say.

Read it.
Imagine you were a state legislator and some folks asked you to pass a law making it a crime to give advice about paint colors and throw pillows without a license. And imagine they told you that the only people qualified to place large pieces of furniture in a room are those who have gotten a college degree in interior design, completed a two-year apprenticeship, and passed a national licensing exam. And by the way, it is criminally misleading for people who practice interior design to use that term without government permission.
You might stare at them incredulously for a moment, then look down at your calendar and say, “Oh, I get it — April Fool!” Right? Wrong.
