Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Heh, our Celtic punk band bassist's son, when he was a toddler, was forever changing the channel to Fox. We kept teasing him that he had a conservative kid.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Nope, what happened was that when he took office in Massachusetts, a bipartisan group of MA women came to him with a binder of women qualified for appointments, because there weren't enough women in office.
There is part of me that finds it extra entertaining that not only was his "binders full of women" comment tone-deaf, he was also trying to take credit for a woman's binder full of women.

No, that wasn't funny, that was just sad. Trying to look more pro-women by stealing credit from women, that was funny.

But to put that remark in context, the original question was "What will you do to keep AK-47s out of the hands of criminals?"
