On How To Desensitize Teen Boys
Uh, so, in other words, the games have no effect on them? Isn't that what this means? Not like violence IN GENERAL, but specifically the violence in the games themselves, right?

On Hair Is Wasted On The Hairful
Am I going to be the first person to bring up that there are a few (extremely effective, I hear) products that manage this very situation? And that they aren't even really that expensive, if you think about how much having hair might be worth to a hypothetical person? Seems that I am.

"Radiohead and The Killers" in 2011? Really, tsk tsk. 2004, sure. 2011 is a little past vintage on that one.

On Rich People Money Prettier Than Regular People Money
Redesigning bills is hugely expensive to the taxpayer and benefits no one but global financial institutions (unless you believe that somehow someone is going to counterfeit enough dollars to actually cause inflation or something, which is basically insane). Discuss.

On Now We Have So Many Bike Racks And No Bikes
There is one of these in front of the liquor store near my house in Bed-Stuy. There is another, a few blocks away, between a cafe that often hosts jazz shows and one of those hot bar places with steaming trays of food you never actually see anyone eat.

this is amazing, thank you. Do they have so much money there that they're even employing journalists? Or are they not that dumb?

On The NRA Is On A Man-Hunt For Mike Bloomberg's "Fake Gun Owner"
My dad is such a bore about trigger safety. I literally disassembled and reassembled a gun with him last Christmas, and when I picked it up after putting it back together, he yelled "POINT IT AT THE GROUND!!" Instead, I did something very adult, which was to throw it on the bed and say "I DON'T EVEN WANT GRANDPA'S REVOLVER, YOU'RE NO FUN," and leave the room like a calm adult.

On Ask Polly: I Am 40. Will I Be Alone Forever?
@Pupshah This sounds like the tortured justifications of a person who is dying to avoid saying something they really mean. Also, 10 - 15 prickly hairs is in a way even MORE GROSS than a moustache. It sounds like an elderly man's haunting remnants of leg hair. Just saggy flesh stretched between a few wispy hairs. . . yes, that's much better.

On Ask Polly: I Am 40. Will I Be Alone Forever?
We're going to castigate a man for not wanting his girlfriend to have a moustache? I mean, guys, JD Sampson is great and everything, but this shit is a little ridiculous. Men do not like to kiss ladies with moustaches. Period, the end, from now until the radical re-ordering of society.

On Don't Give The MTA That Metrocard Dollar!
I got a lovely commemorative Grand Central one (it's green!), and I'm going to use it forever and ever and ever.
