I think you found his point.

Oh, well over 20% could use the buck or two. It's just that 95% of them won't put it toward good use. I work with the sort of population that does a lot of panhandling. I recognize a lot of the ones that I see in my area and I know exactly what they spend extra money on, a lot of it worse than booze. I tell people to never give panhandlers money because 95% of the time it doesn't help them at all. They turn around and buy something that'll just harm them. Stuff like bottled water (I keep a pack of cheap bottled water in my car just for this purpose) and food (perishable or single-serving/not for individual sale stuff they can't sell to corner stores) are the things I recommend giving. If you have time, the ones that are actually hungry will always appreciate a sandwich or fast food or pizza and will always take you up on the offer.

He's right. People love that southern frat boy **** that passes for country nowadays.

Never ever ever ever give money to someone who claims to be homeless.

I'm with dib; she looks like she'd kill and eat her mates. That said, I'd risk it.

Booze is the credited answer, assuming you drink now. Soda or fried foods could work too, depending on what you typically eat and drink.

I must be the only person I know who was hugely disappointed by Fury Road. I loved the first three films, but this one just did not do it for me.

The difference is that the NFL doesn't commit wire fraud or money laundering after they get paid.

I was talking about the dress, but the "dude" who insisted on matching her deserves it too.

Should have been sent home just for how !@#$ing ugly that thing is. Aaaaaaaaand Godwin. Probably a record for OTW.

Hiking with the lady friend tomorrow. Sunday I'll pull out the grave maps and miniature American flags and track down KIAs. Then a cookout. Monday another cookout. Not a big parade guy so I'll be skipping that. All in all a good weekend with too much food and not enough beer.

Why does anyone think the government could more properly allocate funds than a private donor? Because they have such a great track record, or because "this time, it'll be better!"?

Can we just call medicinal marijuana what it really is, that is, de facto legalization?

As long as the tzatziki is for dipping and not cooked into the stromboli I'm in.

Because usually they're butt-chugging it, like the other normal people.

I've actually known a few people who do. Not all the time, but sometimes.

Go fall in love with another woman. Men can love more than one woman at once. I'm convinced of it.

Yeah, you want a woman without a mental illness, ideally. Unfortunately all of them who purportedly don't have a mental illness actually suffer from histrionic personality disorder. So have fun

And you're from a little place called Ganja, Azerbaijan.

GBID is from Beaver, PA

People with BPD are typically surrounded by chaos of their own making. Rage, self-harm, suicidal behavior, intense emotional outbursts, alternating between idealizing people and devaluing them, extreme emotions, etc. are all symptoms of BPD. Psychopaths (or sociopath, if you prefer; they're often used interchangably), may be impulsive and have poor behavioral controls, but they typically have blunted affect and are emotionally shallow. In short, individuals with BPD have a surplus of emotion, while psychopaths have a deficit.

Saw the title and assumed he went to see his dominatrix again.

'grats, Mr. and Mrs. Mead! Here's to 37 more

My mistake, those percentages were for the South. Though here are the national ones, and they aren't much better: https://nces.ed.gov/naal/lit_history.asp
