A poster below corrected the grammar but caught a little crap for it. But I want to weigh in: many people make this mistake, even US English-1st-language types. Less is always for real numbers. Fewer is always for integers. Can't have fractional gas stations, only integer gas stations. -->fewer

The board game Risk(tm) is famous, still popular, depicting an aggregated map of the world on its board. I still love how Kamchatka and Ukraine made the cut as a country while so-called-ruSSia didn't.

That's sick. Can we devise a new slur word to describe such toxic behavior? Some sort of denier..reminds me of all the climate change deniers. I used to call them Storks. It didn't catch on though.

Trump is wussing out from a fight to punish war criming imperialism. He's showing weakness to Xi; it could get Taiwan invaded. I actually expected worse terms, so these less-worse terms probably have heavy influence by Rubio/adults. Trump is weak or compromised.

I thought Congress was greedy enough with their personal stock portfolios to put a stop to this reckless mismanagement of the economy. What's more important: getting reelected or softening the inevitable market crash & aftermath?

I picked up the wrong bag off the airport luggage rack. Lyle Lovett politely pointed to it and said "I think you have my bag."
I ordered a drink at a bar & some dudes came up on both sides of me. I recognized them and said, "Wow! I'm surrounded by butthole surfers!" Bought them drinks.
