    I can confirm hockey lockerooms are the worst.

    Looks like I married your line to the Kunta Kinte quote below it. Works anyway, let's roll with it!

    My drunken point is, I think intent matters.

    What do you think Trumps intent was? He's not smart enough to be that funny.

    See, you think I'm reaching here. Yet there were lots of people on Twitter and on TV saying Trump singled out Kenneth Frazier because he's African American. I did not invent the notion.

    Every night now, everyone's thinking: "Holy shit, what does tomorrow bring?"

    The instability of the Watergate era pales in comparison. Nixon's mess didn't spill into the streets.

    Watched one episode of that and came out dumber for it.

    And because I was late to the party and didn't get a chance to weigh in earlier: The larger size at Starbucks Moddy was thinking of is a trenta which is used for cold drinks. Love me my morning Starbucks run especially with the app so I can order when I'm leaving my house and pick it up on my way to work.

    Here's my favorite part about the Pershing issue: Best-case scenario, POTUS spoke glowingly of a lunatic who committed a war crime.

    Can you imagine Obama saying, "I have instructed our generals to initiate a Mi Lai strategy" in Syria? Or GWB advocating a Rape of Nanking approach in Iraq?

    The moral gymnastics someone has to do right now to defend this ...

    Fair warning, tomorrow night I am on my own at MHWHQ and I have a fair bit of stress and whatnot, plus a full fridge.

    I have family in PHX and the rally Tuesday and well, yeah, I'll leave it at that.

    I may blow some carbon out of the jets Friday night.

    Fair warning.

    I've found a place to go to and try bubble tea, will report back.

    I know I'll like the food, so I'm looking forward to it.

    I agree with this. I agree with you. (Wow, what do you know?).

    Sometimes, it isn't so much what is said, as how it's said. Trump intended it to be belittling, and that's how he said it, and meant it.

    (Although I agreed, chuckling a little, that Pocahontas probably really is the only female Native American that Trump could name off the cuff, without any research....although, to be fair, I'm sure -- absolutely certain -- that he would be far from alone in that).
