First of all, thirty years ago? Reall?  :crazy2:

Second, yum.

Thoughts?

The only advice is common sense: Get over it.

Truth is, no one cares. Sure, there might be some bitchy queens who dish while you're doing your thing but they'll dish if you're just standing around, too. Go out on the dance floor and move. It'd help if you took some dance classes and stretched before going out but in the end, it's all good so long as you're having a good time.

Nightwing. Man, he's sexy. Another would be the New 52's version of Superboy. He's just…gawd, that black hair and broad chest, yum.

Marvel comic book heroes aren't drawn well enough for me but in the cinematic universe, Thor. Absolutely Thor.

I have many from whipping up chocolate souffles after midnight to stealthy taking pictures of beautiful men on the train.

TPBM likes it when people notice their crotch.

I shouldn't, but I should get my butt over to they gym soon.

You should take steroids!

Contrast that with the fact that a woman can get a government subsidized, guilt-free abortion, of a perfectly healthy baby, up until the day of delivery!  And THAT is perfectly legal!  (Hillary Clinton supported that in debate #3 of the 2016 presidential election).

Someone is clearly nuts.  Who?

I don't get your point. Are you saying third-trimester abortions should be illegal or that HC is nuts because she said she was okay with late-term abortions for the health of the mother?

If there is a problem with the health of the mother in the 3rd trimester.. have a c-section.  My adopted / purchased sister was a 7 month baby.  6 month babies (second trimester) are viable.

It's also nuts that someone should be sentenced to 14 years in prison for aborting a 6 week fetus the size of a lima bean.

The number of women who have an abortion in the third trimester is low. Women who are having abortions that late have some kind of reason for choosing an abortion over c-section. In fact, here's the account of a woman whose baby wouldn't be able to survive outside the womb, so at 31 weeks she chose to end the pregnancy.

The argument that all abortions should be illegal starts with finding abortions that should be illegal. The line of thought works just like those against any gun laws.

If this is a topic you're interested in, you should read the accounts of midwives from the turn of the last century. It was fairly common for them to kill newborns who were born with all the diseases we now test for or conditions that, today, an infant can survive. Occasionally you'll hear them echoed in stories coming out of third world counties.

You mean something is actually going to come of this?

From afar, this really does play like a TV drama. (cue popcorn)

Yes, I should, I love Henry James.

You should watch a porn horror parody this week.

Nintendo is Wii, right? That one.

Fresh, homemade waffles or pancakes for breakfast?

Nope. Boxers. I do like a snugger fit than your granddad's boxers, though.

The person below me wears thermal underwear in the winter.

Metaphor. I love deep 'n complex and seeped in Freud.

Therapy or cocktails?

Mouse. With dictation, all I need is a double click.

A bird in the hand or two in the bush?

Needs? Hmmm, naw, I'm pretty chill. Would like? Yup. (opening up Grinder in 4, 3, 2…)

TPBM loves to be kissed all over the face and neck.

I should but it's raining so my Halloween plans are canceled.  :blownose: If this typhoon passes, tomorrow I will.

You should think about getting your haircut.

Sometimes I wish I were a troll because I would so go after this. This is the perfect storm: A black woman says that gay men can't go and a hellofa lot of gay men who aren't into, and say they aren't into, chocolate. Two terrible opinions, one massive reaction.

I would love to read the twitter feed for that.  ;D

@Eridanos:

Dunno about encouraging conformity, I thought they were so that students wouldn't ostracize each other regarding their social stance (reflected on what they would wear)

Still kinda odd, especially if the dye causes problems to the kids. Seems counter-intuitive.

Clothes don't represent social stances (goth, jock, nerd) like they do in western countries. Wearing the same clothes/uniform puts you on the same team. It's as simple as saying that this school is one unit, that x homeroom is one unit. You'll see this at play when they prepare for Culture Day and Sports Festival. The teachers have no active part, the students arrange everything and compete with each other as teams or homerooms. To distinguish one group from another they wear the same outfits, t-shirts, hairstyle, etc.

Costume party – better to laugh than scream.  ;D

Wear a mask at said party or make up?

@Frederick:

I'm not sure what you meant by "abolish civil rights".  Abolishing civil rights protections from convicted felons might work, however, since 35% of adult black males are convicted felons, people would complain that is racist and say "that's because they couldn't afford lawyers".  Almost NOBODY can afford lawyers these days.   Even millionaires such as OJ went bankrupt paying his lawyers.

I'm not really trying to make a coherent point; rather, I was trying to echo what we often hear people say who are opposed to any form of gun legislation.

@cteavin:

It would solve the problem.

In the end, aren't you glad you live in a country where you can stand up and say bullshit things? I do think there should be limitations but is this one of them?

Freedom of speech is for citizens.. not for elected officials. 
For instance, citizen Jones is free to express his opinions about citizen Smith.. UNLESS citizen Jones is employed by citizen Smith.

That's a fair point. I read someone make a similar point about Pence walking out of an NFL game. The idea is that while he holds the office he acting in that capacity. I guess this should hold true for POTUS, too?
