There is an area at work where only approved cellphones are allowed. There is a security checkpoint to enter. A person at work was just promoted (double salary), which required him to go through the checkpoint. After filling out some forms, they told him it would be processed in 3 days. Then he'll get a shiny sticker to paste to the back. On the first day (no sticker), they confiscated his phone at the checkpoint, to be returned on his way out. On day two, he decided to sneak the phone into the building. While texting inside, someone saw the lack of sticker and reported it to security. They escorted him out. Fired. He's suing to get his job back; says he needed a cellphone for emergencies. He's in his 30's.

-The sky is blue. -How do you know this? -I looked up. -Prove it. -It's obvious to anyone with eyes. -That's you're opinion. -Here is a color wheel. It's clearly a shade of blue. -Maybe in this light, but if you tilt it to the side, the shade changes. -Okay, what color do you think it is? -What I think is immaterial. -I see. You're an @#%hat.

People are flocking to trump like he's become a Kardashian.

That wasn't a brake check.

I'm one of those people that run my AC during the winter instead of opening a window.

Someone didn't pay attention in Economics class... Let's throw out science and go with gut feelings. It's much better. Why does the left so consistently follow their emotions over logic and reason? "Regardless of Kansas' economic performance, Mr. Frank's main thesis--that people who are struggling economically should be voting as liberals, not conservatives--is dubious. As an editorial in the Wichita Eagle observed: "There's nothing wrong with many Kansans wanting to hold onto a little more of their paychecks . . . or preferring that when they need help it comes from their family, their church, their community--not an intrusive federal government." But what's really astounding is that Mr. Frank, who offers little in the way of economic data, would base his argument on such blatant falsehoods. To Mr. Frank's liberal prejudices, something may be the matter with Kansas, but it sure isn't its economy." By the reviews, most (unbiased) people can't get through the first chapter without choking on the liberal propaganda. Maybe if the author had presented data instead of rhetoric... Basically, his argument is: "why would people not vote to give themselves free #$@!?"

Early testing showed that the lag was the main culprit in producing dizziness. It was addressed and the early reviews are better. I'm a little skeptical, but it looks promising. I want to try it with FPS games since I generally can't play those without getting sick (not even minecraft). Another thing I'm looking forward to trying is combining it with an exercise bike or stepper. A lot of people said they naturally sped up or slowed down based on the scenery without noticing. You end up with a better workout.

So they are threatening to ignore an agreement to ban ballistic missile testing if they are not allowed to test ballistic missiles. Seems reasonable.

Who's getting one? I was thinking about it, but then my house broke.

Jehovah's witnesses getting serious; no longer need door to knock on...

What does a customer have to do with Trump? Considering the backlash the left has seen following the never-ending PC race bating the last few years, it would be idiotic for them to go that route.

I hope the liberals pull the birther conspiracy off... it'll invalidate Obama's entire presidency.

As always, Apple will deny it exists and the myth will continue. Macs have been hit several times already and people still refuse to believe it.

I hate getting lumped into the same group as people who majored in Gender (or University) Studies. We need to start separating the college education statistics into groups with useful degrees vs worthless ones. Maybe call one side "professionals," and the other "indoctrined."

How does your narrative work with Obama in charge of government? Do you believe he sees all the non-black people as worthless? or dangerous? What about Baltimore? Does the law change because of your race? It's not illegal to rob a convenience store if you're white... But to get back on the topic of income: So if a white cop starts policing my neigbhorhood, i've suddenly become poorer? What if we elect a black mayor? I know electing Obama instantly lowered the wealth of America, but does it work locally too? -What you're basically saying is that poverty is determined by culture. A redneck is considered richer than a thug even if they work at the same Walmart. I'm guessing it's more about being morally bankrupt.

Interesting that both the right (corporate), and left (media and university) straw men are blamed for stifling free speech. Although, only one side has directly stated their intention to do so.

So you're not poor unless you break the law? My dad dug up potatoes and ate them raw on the way home from school. -he still occasionally eats them that way. (peel and all). Our black families might be related.

Everyone (on social media) is going nuts over the possibility of Trump. You have the left who think he will bring about Fallout 4, while the right is having a blast trolling the insecure blubbering wussies. As an independent, it's better than (fake) reality TV. If Trump becomes president, it will be Canada who will have to build a wall to keep the hipsters out.

Thank you liberals for getting rid of the $1 menu.

I actually like how wind turbines look. (Although so many don't seem to turn) The ecological impact on birds is being ignored (by the left), but the economical and environmental benefits look promising, if unproven by time. Like most political statistics, the numbers from either side will be exaggerated, but from personal experience (living in the southwest) we have a lot of empty land that would be perfect for it -and they're popping up faster than weeds, so why not try it for now? Of course, I would also like to see how difficult it would be to remove them if they prove unfeasible. Will they end up like abandoned oil platforms?

The glacier is also melting at 77% of the iceberg's rate under the same Sun (or daughter). Climatologists are asking for increased funding to study the discriminatory behavior of the Sun against Ice in water vs land. Theories speculate that it's due to the patriarchal notion that an iceberg must hide 2/3 of it's mass from view.

You snooze, you lose. Literally in this case.

After a year I'm keeping: -Avengers: age of Ultron for the MCU collection -Mad Max to play in the background during bbq's -Pitch Perfect 2 fer the ladies.

From what I can understand from that convoluted article, the goal is to re-examine the science by filtering it through a feminist lens. The presumption is that gender studies expands a person's observation of the world, by it's innate rejection of proven facts. Scientist: The glacier is 32F Feminist: The glacier is melting because it's being raped by the patriarchy.

The company I work for gives everyone an unpaid day off for Superbowl Sunday, St. Patrick's day, and Cinco de Mayo (out of necessity because either no one showed up, or they were hungover.) Don't be fooled guys, women were already getting these days off. It just makes it an official excuse. Now all they have to acknowledge is time off for children related "emergencies." Of course, if these were PAID days off denied to men, then I see a lawsuit...
