Maggie Gyllenhaal told 37 is "too old" to play love interest of a 55-year-old dude

I’m not saying that’s right. I’m saying those are the facts.

Jim Bob Duggar, dad of noted Christian molester Josh Duggar: incest should be punishable by death

You also seem incapable of understanding that my remarks point to the really stupid "Ha-ha look at the hypocrite" mode of group-think, and not to Mr. Duggar's character. I think he's probably a lout, and his son is probably still a creep. What I'm saying is that there are more interesting things than the characters of these two. For example, and it's the example to which I've plainly pointed to: How do we address people whose modality of thinking is cruel because it is 1) Simplistic, 2) Actually…

Here's the one story to read to learn about Silk Road

I appreciate the civil Discourse (bingo!).

I really wanted to post something like “Look dunderheeds, it is possible to talk about stuff without flying off the handle” but

a. No one would understand ‘dunderheeds’
b. It would be grandstanding within a thread with a relatively important, good conversation happening
c. I get to do all of the above here

Welfare cheating scum

Seems like a cycle to me. Maybe discouraging women from having those very expensive children on their own is behavior modification, but so are campaigns to end drunk driving and get people to quit smoking.

Welfare cheating scum

Maybe discouraging women from the genetic imperative to have children isn’t anything like ensuring people drive responsibly?

Welfare cheating scum

Genetic imperative to have children, huh? So…some women can control their sexual and reproductive urges and let their intellect guide their choices, while others must answer the call of the wild? And here I thought we needed to ensure better education and access to birth control. The irony here is that I’m pretty sure I have a way higher opinion of poor women than you do.

Welfare cheating scum

LOL, my indication that you had made an unfair comparison between human beings wanting to reproduce and wanting to drive gets mangled into ‘I think poor women can’t control themselves’?

Bravo!

That’s a Bingo!

California is sinking as it sucks remaining water out of underground aquifers

I get what you’re saying.

California is sinking as it sucks remaining water out of underground aquifers

You understand that even the current state of the technology and the implementation of such, as expensive as that would be, would still be preferable to the destructive implications of continuing with the current program of water usage buuuut you’d still like to focus on issues with developing desalination technology?

Underlining my hyperbole is the suggestion that the implementation of more expensive options, even really fucking expensive, impractical options, is preferable to the short-sighted and ultimately destructive continuation of current practices.

Are you commonly to be found beating dead horses into dust, or is this just a new hobby for you?

I’m self-bingo’ing here.

Reviewers Comments:

I am disappointed in the new the title of the blog: “A Directory of Mostly Wonderful Things”

• Does this mean that all things that are on BoingBoing are wonderful, but that not everything that is on BoingBoing is actually a thing?

• Perhaps it means that all things that are on BoingBoing are things, and that each thing has the quality of being ‘Mostly Wonderful’ to an equal degree?

• It could also mean that the different things on BoingBoing may each have a varying degree of wonderfulness, (but this seems unlikely)

If the latter is the case, please clarify your title to “A Directory of Things, Mostly Wonderful” and resubmit your work.
