  1. Perhaps it's part of the name of the band.
  2. I feel like the thread title is shouting at me and I don't like it one bit.
  3. Well, that's the thing, though, right? She's not calling it something as specific as a Chicago dog, she's calling it "chili," which is a stew which has evolved quite a bit since its introduction, and often (quite correctly) includes beans. If she called it "Texas-style chili con carne," she would probably be wrong.
  4. Did he knock Tawny Kitaen around? Might explain why she beat up Chuck Finley when they were married...
  5. Ray Lewis was virtually canonized during his "last ride" to the Superbowl.
  6. Did you file a police report?
  7. I listened to most of the studio catalog a couple of months ago.
  8. You ever try to beat a virtual hooker to death with one hand?
  9. I don't understand why either of these should be a reason for the United States going to war.
  10. None of those options work for me. I sleep on the right side of the bed at home. I get the side of the bed farther from the window/door/landmark of wife's choosing when we are traveling.

The Benghazi attackers struck a U.S. diplomatic compound in a foreign country, not multiple targets on U.S. soil. The
  12. You didn't evoke a date. You inappropriately conflated two events. If a German man kills a couple of Jews is it appropriate to refer to it as a mini-Holocaust?
  13. You didn't mention a historical event. You called Benghazi a "mini-9/11." Keep tap dancing, you might get somewhere.
  14. OK. Heartbreaking, I know, but I'm done taking you seriously on the subject.
  15. Just own it, buddy. You compared the two to evoke an emotional response. Otherwise, why else do it?
  16. I don't have a problem with comparing the Benghazi attack to 9/11. I have a problem with glibly invoking 9/11 to refer to an attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound that resulted in the deaths of 4 Americans in an attempt to score points in a political discussion.
