There are a series of posts here called "who's on judge mathis today?" and I binge-read them all in, like, two sittings. They are hilarious.

The best taco shell is a hard shell that's wrapped with a soft shell, held together by refried beans. You get the structural integrity of a soft shell, and the crunch of a hard shell. Best of both worlds. You may also use guacamole to hold the shells together.

More like that's the tail end of that era-- Flagpole came out the same year as Fight Club and Office Space, right behind The Matrix and American Beauty, which form a beautiful quadrilogy of "white dudes upset that they don't have bigger problems, until they have bigger problems" movies. That era was firmly ended by 9/11, for better and for worse. "Two Princes" was at the start of that era where poo poo was largely good for most people in the US, even for people like me whose family didn't have any money at that time.

Voyager was the best star trek series  It had some terrible misses, like the boxing episode or the one with the Rock, but it was mostly good. Year of hell, the WWII holodeck stuff, the armored Voyager, alternate history Voyager...all great.

I did a bit more research. I was incorrect. They did in fact alter the lyrics. But they're uh... still not great. . "how do I get back there to the place where I fell asleep inside you?" made the cut.

More jobs should have weather delays, just due to how long it can take to drive to work if the roads are terrible and all the accidents you have to avoid.

Classmates should help each other during tests, however it should still be officially forbidden and punished if caught. Learning how to outmaneuver the system is part of the test.

We had a prof who'd give you an A for the whole course if you got every single multiple choice wrong on any test, and left blank the essay portion, but gave you your earned grade if you got anything right. One guy managed it.

This is going to sound like a joke or a bit, but it's not, it is 100% my genuine opinion. Hell, it's not even an opinion, it's a fact. If you want a weapon for home defense, a halberd is a better option than any firearm. You hear somebody break in, what do you do? Do you fumble with your gun safe, trying to remember the combination and unlock it in the dark, then fumble with the bullets and load your gun in the dark too? Or do you just grab you halberd off the wall? If you got your gun I hope you line alone in your house. If you have family members or neighbors I hope you're totally OK with the chance one of your bullets will go through the wall and into their lungs and they'll drown in their own blood because you decided a gun was "cooler" than a halberd. You have a gun, the intruder sees you, he rushes you, what do you do? Better hope you don't miss, better hope you actually can fire a gun at another person even though people in literal wars often can't. But if you have a halberd, he's not gonna rush you because you have a loving giant metal spike pointed directly at him. A halberd keeps your opponent at a distance better than any gun. It is inarguable that a halberd is a better weapon for home defense than a gun. Anyone who disagrees has been brainwashed by the NRA, just likes to imagine themself as a movie hero, or is secretly praying for a second civil war.

keep it loaded and don't lock it up, idk I don't have any home defense weapons but if I did I'd just get a $250 shotgun and keep it under the bed or whatever phuo: if you're paranoid about intruders just get bars on your windows and nice doors we had a heavy duty screen door we took off some projects that got demolished and that thing would repel a fire axe
