The restaurant originally claimed in court that the waitress had taken the wrong order, thinking that Richardson had ordered the vegetarian meal rather than the gluten-free and vegetarian option.
Sigh. And once again we are grouped in with the gluten free people. :rolleyes:​

Not sure it's lol-worthy, but he slit the throat of a lamb on his show, without stunning the lamb first, which is in violation of UK animal cruelty laws at the very least. I know it's a minority opinion, but I think there is a huge difference between people who mindlessly consume meat without bothering to think hard about where it comes from, and people who are capable of doing their own killing.

No I was ignorant before, it most definitely isn't lol worthy.

Obama approval ratings not hurt by scandals

Doesn't surprise me. It's not even so much as are you for Obama vs are you for or against the current incarnation of the Republican party. The Republicans have cried wolf too often for anyone (other than their hardcore base) to take them seriously. The Democrats are somewhat afflicted with this too. I suspect I'm being entirely too optimistic but maybe, maybe as the effectiveness of this type of bs politics diminishes they all can get back to governing... nah.
 
Jumping the Tumblr ship is a bit premature. Allegedly, Tumblr will remain a separate entity and continue to be run by the same people.

Also, Yahoo! didn't need to spend a billion dollars to join Tumblr -- it's free.

To be in a current relationship, pursuing or open to a relationship and/or being public about it? That's what it means to me vs just sexual orientation and I think that is the distinction they are trying to make in the article.

Until our society gets past it stupidity in the way it treats sexual orientation and how it "demonizes" physical relationships IDK what else we can do.

I do understand your rant though.
