Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Maybe he thinks that non-selectarians don't really think about the food we eat. We have false food-consciousness.

“Remember before you had your first e-mail address or your first cellphone,” he said. “Don’t you think that your food tasted better back then?”

I didn't get my first e-mail address until college, and frankly, I think I have better taste in food now.

I'm betting that this is it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Easy now. Remember that "don't ask, don't tell" was very much a step in the right direction, because witchhunts were very common at the time.

I mean in regards to Obama, who promised it on the campaign trail and then irritated much of the gay and lesbian community (from what I understand) by seeming to backpedal.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Yeah, "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" lost a lot in execution, but the original intent was actually pretty good.

It was the insane over-reaching and rapidly expanding definition of what was considered "telling" that was problematic.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

In an example of how yogis have adopted the language and ideology of foodies, Mr. Kest calls himself a “selectarian,” one who chooses everything he eats.

As opposed to the rest of us who just reach out blindly and eat whatever we wind up grabbing?

NEVER do this in the bathroom.

Dana, I'm just sensitive b/c I was dating a female soldier around that time and heard a lot of horror stories about people lurking in gay bars and such to find out homosexuals. I personally feel like people are not being patient enough with Obama, given that it's only been a year. I understand that for gays in the military it feels very urgent.
