sOmE rUsSiAn LiE about some actor not being butthurt that a guy drew his face on a wall and wrote some words under it WHILE IN FACT said actor is indeed very butthurt

if he wants a legal body to represent his rights on a russian soil maybe he should lobby to make these legal bodies return to the russian soil, who knows, maybe he'll sway some people lol

You forgot to capitalize LITERALLY, junior.

(Do the CAPS mean it's figuratively LITERAL, or LITERALLY figurative? And why does LITERALLY every post have to include "LITERALLY"? It's almost as amazing as, well, AMAZING.)

Yes, except the same number of words, one of which is now a contraction.

Actually that was a terrible thing that Saul did. His brother was a shitty person but he became as bad.

My guy, I had abstinence-only sex ed in high school. My teacher literally held up a poster board that said "Abstinence." Did your brain only start forming memories in the last 10 years?

The Juice is just disgusting, the smell and that feeling it leaves in your throat ugh. I think if someone has the chance to try the fruit they could like it, but its never going to be something that you will ever miss.

I seem to recall the Legal Eagle review of this had the guest military lawyer, who had served at Gitmo I think, say that wall is probably one of the safest, and subsequently boring, places to be in the world and absolutely nothing ever happens there.

Interesting. I always took "You can't handle the truth" to mean I'm deliberately not telling you the truth because you can't handle it. Sure, they've got all the evidence that points them to what the truth likely is, but it's not the same as being told the truth directly which confirm everything.

Nicholson's version is much catchier and the Disney version makes a nice earworm.

Hazelnuts are about the only commonly consumed nut that is botanically considered a nut.

When I went on a tour in Belize they said it makes a great wine that re-ferments in your stomach so you get drunk twice. Pretty wild concept and surprised it's not sold/produced much outside of Central America.
