There was a funny little story about the first 2/3 's of this. I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream. It was a riot.

(It was not a riot, but very much worth reading or listening to.)

Nope. Sorry but you're just wrong. "Han shot first" implies Greedo shot second. And he most certainly did not. Han shot, Greedo died. Green fucker with finger suckers didn't even get a shot off.

I don't know what kiwi farm is but free speech is not an inherent right you have. No one that runs or owns anything owes you that. Right to expression is a government thing. If you came to my house and said anything I didn't like, I have zero obligation to let you continue. In fact I could kick you out for saying things I did like. And I could choose to not have someone else leave for saying the same thing.

The good news is that you can start your own federation and allow/disallow whatever you choose.

Shit. I blame it on the massive dose of NyQuil I was on at the time.

I think the quote was "that's what high school was, cheating and bad lunches". Or something like that anyway. I never cheated. I don't think I ever got cheated on either. I think in junior and high school a lot of people are figuring themselves out and make a lot of mistakes. But I think if someone is bragging about it as an adult, that's just shitty.

I got a buck says it was some moron that doesn't (or didn't) know the difference between fertility clinic and abortion clinic.

Ha. To be fair, it was a joke gift, and I've only worn it once, to the givers house. I only keep it because every now and then I leave it out when we're going out to tease my wife.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/86_(term)

"Military personnel might use "86" to refer to scrapping equipment (e.g., "That old radio got 86'd") or ending a plan or mission (e.g., "The op was 86'd due to bad weather"). It's not an official term in military doctrine or manuals, but it's part of the informal jargon and culture of soldiers, sailors, and airmen due to its common and frequent use, and is a concept military members are assumed to understand, although it originates in broader civilian language."

Eighty-six is slang meaning "to throw out," "to get rid of," or "to refuse service to." It comes from 1930s soda-counter slang meaning that an item was sold out. There is varying anecdotal evidence about why the term eighty-six was used, but the most common theory is that it is rhyming slang for nix.https://www.merriam-webster.com/wordplay/eighty-six-meaning-origin

Words can change meanings. Language is fluid.
