Whenever there is talking of arming teachers, I can think back to high school and know which teachers would've wanted to carry.

I used to love seeing this one come on. It addressed the extremely difficult problem of draining pasta with a colander.

A reactionary man who peaked with high school football couldn't actually support a family of four in a two-story house in Chicago by selling shoes at the mall?

I read you every week in print, on newsprint, in the Memphis Flyer as I've been doing since the '90s. But it was here, recently that you made me really understand the JD bellhop bit.

I've been rereading Bull! by Maggie Mahar and highly recommend it if you haven't read it. As she compares the dot com bust to 70s implosion of the "Nifty 50" stocks you get intense deja vu.

In elementary school Subway Jack scared the hell out of me. In high school Blood and Shadows came out from Vertigo comics and caused me to want more by that Lansdale guy, which led me to Hap and Leonard. Been reading all his work ever since.

Never underestimate the extent that MAGA is fueled by guys who felt like they were near the top of their high school lunch room hierarchy visiting a trendy brunch place and feeling out of place.

Hello argumentative rando. I literally did vote blue no matter who for the last 12 years and endlessly explained the need for playing defense with the lesser evil in all elections. And I see where we are now.

We tried 12 straight years of opposing Trump with "vote blue no matter who," so we can easily see where that approach got us.

Gotta give them credit for taking a stand right now. They aren't afraid to confront people in the crowd at their shows.

No matter what we do going forward, we're the international relations equivalent of a guy who went on a violent drunken rampage starting fights and brandishing a gun trying to assure people, "That'll never happen again. That's not me."

"Move production of everything to the US!" I'm in the auto repair industry. One of the items about to get hammered with pride increases is wheel weights. The idea that it would be good for the US economy to get back those good, high-paying jobs manufacturing lead wheel weights is absurd.

My serious answer is the Dylann Roof mass shooting. It uncaged something in the minds of a whole lot of white people and they started changing their social profile pics to Confederate flags and yelling they were the real victims.

I love when the self-check out asks if you want a printed receipt knowing full well you're about to walk 50 feet to the rent-a-cop cosplaying a Call of Duty character who will demand to see your receipt.

He clearly showed pictures of Robert Downey Jr. playing Tony Stark to his cosmetic surgeons. He's so hung up on trying to cosplay as genius inventor playboy he spent of fortune on surgeries to try to look like an actor's renditon of a comic book version of one

A lot of people support fascism because they think it means strong currency and the trains run on time. Trump take egg and Trump crash plane steadily remind people on the margins they aren't getting the things they thought they were compromising their ideals for.

I live in Memphis, TN, where they'll never visit for one of these stories because that would involve acknowledging that not all "middle class Southerners" are white.
