- I really should take my Duster into the tailor to get it fixed up good -- nm - Beryllium Aug 24, 16:49

        You prefer your QBs whose own teammates hate them and wind up explaining their team's underachieving every year. Got it. - David Aug 24, 16:46 3

  - As in the consistently top 5 fantasy football defense Bears. -- nm - Reagen Aug 24, 16:46 3

      - Which matters how in fantasy football? - Reagen Aug 24, 16:52 1
        
        Well...it was a bit of a problem last year for some fantasy footballers. - the liiouu minus an l Aug 24, 16:59
- Brown's fall off last season concerns me. I'm liking Housh's upside if Matt stays healthy -- nm - Guy Aug 24, 16:27

    - you missed this morning's thread about women protesting against equal rights in Mali. -- (link) - loosilu Aug 24, 16:22 25
      - HA! I had just left home. -- nm - Remlik Aug 24, 16:24 24
        
        I love how it's only the "educated" women who are in favor, and that's derogatory. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 16:24 23
        
        "The poor and illiterate women of this country - the real Muslims - are against it" - David Aug 24, 16:29 12
        
        Sarah Palin has found her constituency though. -- nm - Reagen Aug 24, 16:33
        
        it's the appeal to "regular" folks. The Sarah Palin crowd of Mali. - loosilu Aug 24, 16:33 4
        
        I love that they are in every way possible kindred spirits to the Low Right here yet neither group would admit it due to religious conflicts. -- nm - David Aug 24, 16:35 1
        
        The international community should find a way to exploit that, to shame Mali into equal rights. ;-) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 24, 16:36
        
        jinx! -- nm - Reagen Aug 24, 16:33 1

        Mob mentality is definitely an under-studied aspect of human psychology. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Aug 24, 16:33 3
        
        There have been studies done. And, of course, people have learned how to harness the power of mobs for their own nefarious ends. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 24, 16:35 1
        
        Examples: Obama, Al Gore, Toyota (Prius/Synergy hybrid drive). - Beryllium Aug 24, 16:41
        
        "We've found a witch, may we burn 'er?" -- nm - znufrii Aug 24, 16:35
        
        Damn east (?) coast Malian elitists! -- nm - Reagen Aug 24, 16:26 3

        tangentially appropriate is the facebook status of a friend of mine from earlier today... - znufrii Aug 24, 16:25 5
        
        you might ask why she objects to being called a feminist. :) -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 16:26 4
        
        I don't think that's where her objection lies. -- nm - znufrii Aug 24, 16:29
        
        Yeah, I always went by the bumpersticker that says "Feminism is the radical notion that women are people." - Dr.Vermin Aug 24, 16:29 2
        
        As recently as 1929 it was decided law in Canada that they were not. -- nm - Reagen Aug 24, 16:36
        
        I think she is baffled that an idea as common-sensical as treating women as people is even deserving of a label. -- nm - znufrii Aug 24, 16:30
  - The huggie-feelie types tend to overcompensate when give real power. Death to all her enemies! -- nm - Reagen Aug 24, 16:17
- Ro better put her in her place! -- nm - Remlik Aug 24, 16:14

- "I am literally going to shoot you if you keep doing that." -- nm - znufrii Aug 24, 16:04 2
  - My favorite one is "I was literally blown away." If true, how am I still talking to you? You'd be dead. -- nm - con_carne Aug 24, 16:05 1
    - I meant in the good way. [zips up] -- nm - Carne's boss Aug 24, 16:22
