I thought the morning constitutional was taking a shit.

Pretty sure Oregon did something similar but like...what are these people going to do without commissary? Making it not involuntary doesn't really mean prisoners aren't forced to do it so they can have things like shower sandals so they don't get trench foot. Every con is still choosing to work for a pittance because they need it to survive in prison. But it's OK we no longer legally allow slavery.

The Tom Bombadil stories were separate from Middle Earth when Tolkien wrote them. Tom is just a cameo from Tolkiens other works. He's a minor character put there because Tolkien liked him and thought he fit. For the sake of the story any elf could have done, Tolkien could have wrote in any major character or made up a new minor one. He chose Bombadil because he didn't have a use anymore in his own, older stories and Tolkien wanted him to live on happily ever after in Middle Earth. Tom was first, those stories came first, he is Eldest, conceived before the first acorn of Middle Earth, before the trees and lamps. He lived on past the death of his own universe and settled in Middle Earth. That's why is not affected by the laws of Middle Earth, his ways are older and stranger. Goldberry is a Maiar who knows all this.

Walton Goggins, but he plays me at every age like John C. Reilly in Walk Hard.

Yeah, we understand you, stop repeating yourself and try to understand us.

Dude, you keep missing the point. Instead of stubbornly arguing the same thing, maybe reread and spend some time thinking and trying to understand the conversation you're participating in so you don't look so foolish.

Doesn't aluminum need to be heated to several thousand degrees to put off carcinogenic fumes? Otherwise cooking on aluminum foil would be deadly...

I dated a girl who was militant about the seed end being the RIGHT end and anyone opening it from the bunch end was wrong. Her reasoning is that in cartoons the banana peel that characters slip on is ALWAYS opened by the seed end.

I work in the grape wine industry but at home I make fruit wines. I always crack up when someone says this grape wine tastes like cherries or blueberry.

I dont drink often anymore, and not heavily, just a few glasses of wine or a beer or two. I don't feel like the pear affects the high at all. Maybe I don't get hungover because I don't drink enough, but I like to credit the pear.
