it honestly doesn’t change postgrad

True. In the Cal State system, it was possible to earn a 4-year BS or BA with only 2 required writing courses--freshman comp and "upper division writing" taken in the third year.

We were gatekeepers with no gate to keep, charged with ensuring graduates were at least capable of writing and reading at the 12th-grade level.

the idea that it was ever thought of as good is almost definitely revisionist utilising a very small subset of very deluded people that don't represent any larger demographic in any meaningful way.

Maybe the dumb inference was made on the basis of old cigarette commercials with slogans like "Nine out of ten doctors smoke Camels."

That's fine with me. I love pot, and quit cigs 6 years ago. The edible option is great if you have the time and space for a mini psychedelic trip followed by an insatiable appetite and a deep sleep.

it's not like top athletes smoked like chimneys.

This is why you see all sorts of pro baseball players smoking in the dugout until about 1970.

WWI soldiers called them "coffin nails." I think there's a double meaning there.

There is no reason for any Irishman to lay down for this--you don't get to claim "exhaustion" when your lives and nation are at stake.

No surprise. "Hate speech" as a concept has always been intended to stifle political dissent and demonize dissidents.

I'm sure the bill will pass, despite the recent stabbing atrocity. Stick a fork in Ireland. It's done.

Where is the pluck of the old IRA? Can't the Protesants unite in an alliance with the IRA to expel these savages? You all are great ones for tossing bombs at your fellow Irishmen. Where is the action against the Muslim invaders, at least in retaliation for this latest slaughter?

Better start saving up for the coming Jizwa.

That's right up there with the WWI "German soldiers tossing French children in the air and skewering them on bayonets."

So the Chinks and the CDC are fucking around with weaponized pneumonia bacteria now? End all incoming flights from that humongous hellhole of human misery.

For fuck's sake are Jews white or not? They shift race when it's to their advantage.

No. I refuse to believe anyone is contemplating casting this WOMAN as the SS.

Thanks. I stopped reading Silver Surfer back around 1970, when I was 9. I gave up straight comics for underground comix around 2 years later, then both genres went to shit, but some of the underground artists continued producing good work through the '80s.

Holy Jesus . . . what is THAT? Some sort of human-insect hybrid?

They do it for $, plain and simple. Newer generations who may be unfamiliar with early, often good, movies are bamboozled into watching this remake drek.

It's the standard Hollywood formula--find a hit film and "remake" it endless times to milk it for as many $ as possible.

At the same time you increase the longevity of aging stars.

That's how every "argument" is made in the humanities--begin with a conclusion trumpeting your prejudices and mine the stacks for other people advancing your thesis to provide testimony for rationalization.

There has to be a tipping point, a critical mass of atrocities that will trigger the final solution to the Muslim problem--deportation, imprisonment, or death on the streets.

Bring a goddamned gun to a knife fight.

There is no will among Muslims anywhere--even those born in the West--to reform. At least not that I can see. The moderate Muslim is either nonexistent, lying to pollsters, or ineffective against the hard-liners, the Imams, who run everything anyway.
