:o Yeah, I actually got this far. ☹ What. A. Douche. If he truly is a woman-hating asswipe like he portrays himself here-definitely douche. And if he’s just trolling all this crap for shits and giggles-yeah definitely douche. I enjoy most trolls. I do not enjoy this one. ---

Being a life-long resident of North Carolina, I can assure the OP that proper “BBQ” does not involve pork chops. It also doesn’t involve mustard, but that’s another thread. 😉 ---

Fighting over proper BBQ is like fighting over whether apple crumble or apple pie is the true apple dessert. ---

> [@Inner\_Stickler](#): > > Fighting over proper BBQ is like fighting over whether apple crumble or apple pie is the true apple dessert. Seriously. It’s meat on a fire. Not exactly rocket science (although putting filet mignon on a grill is akin to claiming that Apple in BBQ sauce is the true apple desert). ---

I swear that if I should ever be POTUS, I will go around the West Wing doing my best paranoid Nixon impression looking for backstabbing weasels just for giggles. I’m guessing that the Republicans are even now bowing to the inevitability of Hillary in Chief, a position even Democrats think is pre-mature. ---

More misogyny from **kstarnes**. At least it strikes me as the ‘young, stupid, horny idiot guy who thinks women exist for his pleasure’ type of misogyny rather than the ‘old, entrenched, bitter, seething hatred’ type of misogyny. Maybe you’ll grow up someday, **kstarnes**. ---

> [@kayaker](#): > > I’ve wondered the same about ticket stubs. There was an incident ~15 years ago when Yo Yo Ma (Yo Mama?) or some other famous musician accidentally left his musical instrument in a Manhattan taxi. He was able to track it down because, inexplicably, he had kept the receipt from the cab ride.
