Pentaquark is a legit thing, though I think theoretical at this point? Basicaly five quarks stuck together, I think I saw it on one of those University of Notthingham youtubes.

Let's break down this accusation. You are saying that Obama faked tears for children murdered by guns. Why would he need to fake tears? Because he doesn't actually give a poo poo, that they died so nuts could own guns? Isn't that exactly what they want?

I bet they think the tears are fake because they think he organized the Sandy Hook shooting. If you didn't know that Sandy Hook truthers exist and are known for harassing the families of the deceased children, demanding the truth, then I have some sad news for you.

This is so true! Assault rifles today fire a single hand forged ball per shot every 90 seconds and misfire in every third shot.

I think if whichever of the Founding Fathers looked at firearms today, with the exception of hunting rifles, they would pretty explicitly be like, "yeah we did not mean for you to carry that around."

It's a slippery slope from there, man! If you make them slightly harder to obtain, then that opens the door to making them acceptably difficult to obtain! Then people who want guns will just go through the quick-and-easy, risk-free black market networks to get them! If you make it inconvenient to get a gun, then only those who have actually put thought into buying a gun will have guns!

Right now, putting Vicks VapoRub on your feet to "cure" a cough is trending on Facebook. I'm not sure why. But Frank N Furter here is about to drop some plague plaque knowledge on you. Stick some onions on your feet, too! Them changing color is totally unrelated to the fact that they'll be sitting at body temperature for 8 hours. So proven, they even used them during a time when they totally knew about bacteria in the air* and only killed 30-60% of the population.

Or maybe not; maybe they would be like "Hell yeah dude everyone who can obtain it should have the power to kill as many as he can as fast as he can!!" That doesn't mean that's how modern-day America should be run. There's lots of stuff the founding fathers did that America later decided to let go of, like not letting women and non-whites vote.

Also a cold or flu is most likely the result of a virus, so pulling bacteria out of your feet (the best place for them to come out, imo), is not gonna help your chest cold go away.

By the way, the reason they say to put the Vicks on the feet of children is that it allows for the mentholated vapors to disperse and reduce the risk your kid licking it off in the middle of the night when they're bored.

Saw this poo poo on the Daily Show where they showed clips of Fox News attacking the president for crying when talking about dead kids. It is remarkable how out of the way people would go to make compassion look bad. You would think that their would be some introspection, like you don't have to like the president but at least acknowledge that when he is talking about dead children and crying that isn't a bad thing.

Considering last time I went back to visit my folks, he asked me to pick up something off the floor under his bed for him and instead the first thing I found was a loaded gun loosely wrapped in a bedsheet pointing me in the face (that he neglected to warn me about until I started pulling the towel out to throw in the laundry :downs:), I assume the answer is 'yes', at least for his own kids.

Most of that stuff is the same all across the US. With the exception of Buggys, the regionalisms are much the same in the Twin Cities. I wish I could say that Minnesotans don't beat the poo poo out of their kids but I have several acquaintances that say their parents kicked their rear end six ways from Sunday for disrespecting Bud Grant and not shutting up when Don Shelby was on 'CCO. Oddly enough, they don't beat their own kids.
