Heinlein was a hack kid’s author in the 50s who wrote nothing of note until the last couple of books such as _Job_ or _The twat who walks through walls_. ---

Oooh, ooh, I thought of a good one - all ghost, esp, ouija board, witch, demon, telekinesis, precognition, spooky stories are ALL TRUE!!! Every one of them! And there’s probably even more spooky stuff that’s true too, that we don’t even know about yet! ---

> [@NothingMan](#): > > (And for the locals) U of Tennessee orange is a nasty hideous color resembling cones on the highway or a hunter trying not to get shot. Also for the locals (but likely to get me shot if I said what I really think out loud): The Vols are the best college football team in the nation, and anyone who doesn’t attend every game is guilty of treason. After all, not wearing Vol Orange makes the Baby Jesus cry. ---

Yes, but that’s why they chose it – so UT fans can wear the same outfit to the game on Saturday, hunting on Sunday, and picking up trash by the side of the road the rest of the week. 😃 ---

> [@Innanna](#): > > SNL is WAY better than that Monty Python crap. Especially these last few years. Damn Straight! And Benny Hill could produce more genuine hilarity with one smirk than those five no-talents could in their entire careers. And The Simpsons? Feh! If I want to watch a flimsy, humorless Flintstones rip-off I’ll draw it myself. And, try as I might, I can’t recall a single line worth repeating from _The Big Lebowski_… (And one more for the boxing fans…) Man, De LaHoya would have smacked Ray Robinson around like a red-headed stepchild. ---
