I don't think he can grow facial hair - I don't think he has much body hair at all. Seriously, have you ever even seen stubble on his face?

He's like Stan Sitwell. He's an alpaca.

I have wished for years for both "tubular" and "bodacious" (which actually dates to the 19th century) to make a comeback.

I miss bodacious. Also Surly. And historical western nicknames. The pioneer cities must have been a hell of a time back in the day if you didnt die hard and dirty.

I wish college fraternitys were more like old west reinactors. Nicknames would be so much better, "Coyote Bob" instead of "Goober". God what a glorious world that would be for exploring repressed homoerotic tendencies that everyone just pretends isnt the whole reason for the whole thing.

I would swipe Up. (it's really more intuitive than left or right)

I'm so glad I don't date.

but for hyperpartisans on both sides, moderates have always been a troubling purple stain on what they see as our country’s otherwise perfect ideological divide.

Who the fuck wants an ideological divide and who thinks such things could be described as "perfect"

I think there already is a MAGA-only dating app.

I don't know if moderate = Republican in disguise. I think it's more like - HI! I'm a milquetoast centrist incrementalism fan. I'm looking for civility, fiscal conservative lip service and lots of ketchup.

I think there's two types of people that come to mind when I see the word moderate, one viewed in a positive light, one in a negative light.

“When I see someone who has listed ‘moderate’ or ‘centrist’ as their political leaning on a dating app, I just assume that they’re too embarrassed to put Republican or right-wing”

Another tribalistic wacko.

oh...THOSE fuckers. Yeah. Fuck those guys. I hate when the ketchup pump is empty. Wendy's ketchup is amazing

Anyone remember those shitty film adaptations of Atlas Shrugged?

It's funny because the whole message was supposed to be about self-reliance and not taking handouts to succeed, but the first film did so poorly that the producers had to rely on crowdfunding donations to finish the second and third films.
