Well... a series is often a satire of a part of the world, and we would do well to remember that it is also often a stereotype of just a portion of the people. Doesn't make it invalid, just not complete.

I am shocked, shocked and dismayed that you would think that the felon in chief may not be very good at his job. ( this is sarcasm people )

Somehow, hitting a heart, like I love a posts topic, seem wrong. Some kind of "thanks" for the post would be a better option, so of course we won't get it anytime soon.

Makes me wonder just how much more successful my heavy pot smoking friends would be if they stopped, considering they are already more successful and competent than the average American.

And reclaiming slurs is problematic at best. I remember our student advisor of our LGBT+ club said that at a large LGBT+ conference, a large portion of the attendees took exception when the idea was floated to reclaim "queer" as a word that could replace the LGBT+ word salad we use now.

While your point has validity, I have to wonder at the process. It is a lot easier to ban anything resembling inappropriate usage, than to have to check each instance. It does err on the side of concern. I would imagine they take issue with black people wearing a shirt with the n word as well.

While it might be true that they said there was no expiration date, it is also true that companies should reasonably expect prize winners to collect in a reasonable time period, say about a year. The company should not be expected to wait indefinitely for you to get around to collecting your prize.

Let's make America great by encouraging broism, sexism, white Nationalism, and stupidism.

Like you just said, it is not about the money, so it is not "too late". It is simply impossible to fight with money once condition exceed a certain point.

Who cares how big the budget is. The wind is making it impossible to fight the fire effectively. It would be like saying Florida's hurricane budget isn't big enough.
