I'm probably the most extremely-to-the-right buffista in terms of the abortion issue, and even I'm horrified hearing about what people are doing to that poor girl. Quite apart from the moral judgements and psychological trauma issues, aren't there grave health risks to both mother and child when the mother is that young? I'd think a 13 year-old would be too physically immature to safely carry a baby to full term.
Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

Running around getting exercise is no way to meet No Child Left Behind standards. Therefore it's counterproductive.Actually, even with whatever standards, if a kid doesn't get out to run around for spell, he's not going to be able to learn anything, because the adrenaline floods his brain, and a brain drowning in adrenaline is dumb. SCIENCE FACT (or possibly my asspull opinion, but let's go with SCIENCE FACT).

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
On the 22nd of December 2004, Kyle Van Horn taped a disposable camera to a piece of black foamcore and inscribed upon it the following message: "ATTENTION POSTAL WORKERS! Please help us with our project. As this camera travels across the country we want photos of all whom it encounters. Please take a photo before you pass it along. Thank you!"
That IS cool! Except many of the photographers seemed to ignore the flash button, which is unfortunate.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
DX, I think JZ just called you old.
Dude! Stop putting words in my fingertips! A man who's willing to quote The Producers at the drop of a hat is forever young in my book.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My personal favorite moment of the entire show came earlier, though, when Stewart mocked the tee-heeing giggly us-girls ineptitude of the CNN co-anchors at the end of a serious, depressing story in which a spokesflackster had just lied on-air: he flailed, he giggled, he exploded into righteous expletive-laced fury. I would've had his baby right then and there.
OMG, I KNOW!! In Oprah magazine this month, there is a list of "five women we'd like to trade places with for the day" or something, and Tracey Stewart is on the list. For a minute I was annoyed that they couldn't come up with five women with their own merits, but then I remembered HOW FUCKING TRUE it is.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
My favorite was jailball. I was good at jailball.

Shouldn't you be a criminal prosecuter, then?

Tetherball, foursquare and kickball were ok.
