I grew up with Marvel, and more or less, I've stayed loyal to them. As a kid, my favorite comic book was The Fantastic Four, and my favorite character was the Thing! Looking back at the character, I think I saw a lot of my Dad in Ben Grimm, aka the Thing. Both were more controlled by their anger, th... |

When I was a lot younger, I used to frequent strip clubs. Sure, it was expensive. Sure, the only sex you're going to get is with yourself after you go home. But you know, for an Aspie who couldn't get a date with the Creature from the Black Lagoon, it was nice to have almost naked girls crawling all... |

I sincerely don't think there is much of a premise, other than to make you laugh at very base, gross humor. I think it's hilarious.

When I took anthropology back in my college days, we were told that the notion of a "missing link" was a rather outdated, naive idea. There wasn't a situation where you had an ape at one end of the spectrum, a human at the other, with the missing link in between. Evolution is a gradual process, with... |

My wife and I are hooked on Breaking Bad. It's the only show where you end up caring about drug dealing scumbags.

1, Eastern Washington University. 2, I majored in history, which I have a four year degree in. 3, Well, that's a tricky one. I absolutely loved learning just for the sake of learning, and having the world open for me in ways I have not experienced since. On top of that, I found myself stepping from ... |

I just learned the other night about James Dobson's co-founder of Focus on the Family, who was caught taking a trip to Europe with a male prostitute. Now, this gentleman, like Dobson and everyone else in their organization, is fanatically anti-gay, and believe homosexuality can be "cured." He claime... |

I've known about how the shroud was debunked a few years ago, including that the head was too small to be real. I did not know about how the arms had been been made too long in order to cover the genitalia. So, as I see it, there are two choices: either the shroud was a fake, or our Lord and Savior ... |

I've heard this sort of thing before. I personally believe there is no real correlation between age and autism. Rather, people with Asperger's, like myself, only learn to socialize later in adulthood. And so marry and have children later than most people. I equate my daughter's PDD-NOS with the same... |

Every time I hear about the Tea Party, people talk about it like there is supposed to be a stigma attached to it. I am not in that movement, but I am curious as to what issues they are addressing that turn many people off from it. The only stigma I am aware of is the bigotry of the left-wing media ... |

The stigma is, the tea baggers tend to be red necks who can't stand that we now have a black president. That sort of racial prejudice doesn't exactly go over well these days. That, and the fact that they oppose health care reform, and the government's cracking down on the insurance industry shows th... |
