Casey Affleck has the best Boston accent of all the actors from Boston who do the accents. Better than Damon, his brother, Krasinski, and Evans by a mile. And even better than Seth Myers. My cousin messaged me after that skit saying I needed to see it ASAP. It's so fucking good. Not better than Bil...

I think Pearl Jam is the third-highest grossing band formed in the 1990s (Not to ruin a good potential Swampcrash question, but #1 is Dave Matthews Band and #2 is (yuck) Coldplay. (Not that profits are the end-all, be-all or anything, but if you're judging by album sales and tickets sold they're ab...

Tupac is no as a rapper, yes as a rapper-as-cultural-icon-slash-influence. So I don't know if that makes him a yes or no, but I know it should open the door for atleast a half dozen others down the line. I don't know what they base it on, but I would say yes from an influence standpoint. Kind of th...

Why the heck does Amazon suggest things in ads to me THAT I BOUGHT YESTERDAY? Almost two years later they keep trying to entice me to buy food for my dead dog. On the bright side at least they don't know it's dead. That would be creepier. Oh, they know. It is all part of their plan to put the idea ...

When we first moved in together, or maybe it was when my son was born, my wife wanted to put up some decorations and get a tree. I said no, mostly because I don't want the hassle, and it would fall on me to do it. Every year when neighbors start decorating, my daughter asks why we can't. I wouldn't ...

I am offended that my situation is not listed. Yet another reason for my rebel fighter status in the War on Christmas. My inlaws and parents are all Jewish, but my inlaws do the whole Christmas thing for some reason. They do a full tree, and somehow I can't remember if it is real or fake. Knowing my...

I have Kliph Nesteroff listed in my phone's notes app, and I had no idea why. When I hear an interesting book on a podcast, I note it. Probably for this book, so thanks.

Ha, I missed the "Payless shoes." That's great. Brian, I don't know for a fact that there are no Payless Shoes in Turkey, I just know it's true.

Clinton could've not been under federal investigation and maybe campaigned better. That could've helped too. Let's not think for a moment Jon Stewart would've made a difference. He's regarded as a liberal elitist. He uses big words. He talks down to people. Sure, they deserve it, but they are too s...

My first thought is, "what is Trump going to Tweet, embarrassing himself and our entire country?" Too soon to type jokes, but if it was a Muslim terrorist, he will probably backhandedly compliment himself for predicting this.

DSafe, if you ever go back to Prison City or if they start distributing, pick me up some and ship it to me. Really want to try it. They have basically a brewpub setup, so even though they are expanding, I don't know how much they can do unless they're doing it offsite. Auburn is a small town and th...

Here is a depressing clip that helps to explain part of why Trump won. Just flat out stupidity and ignorance. Coupled with easily swayed people with misdirected anger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOIBwljkI_M A few things really stand out. Mustache man saying Trump didn't mean any of the horrible...

But... It couldn't happen here , right? I mean, right ? Well that's disturbing. If Trump's private security force violently prevents people from speaking freely, is that a First Amendment violation, or is it a private citizen acting? If they are acting on Trump's orders, it would probably be consid...

So If Obama knew enough to chastise putin in September why didn't they fight fire with fire vis a vis the email stuff?

I just looked up one of my answers and one of the correct answers is one of the most WTF correct answers in the history of this game. Muppet Babies? I think it's ironic that all of us got the NAACP question right except for the only black guy in the game, and the only black TV character in the Swamp.

Finally, the wealthy will be able to fight back against the Liberal Class War against them.

I'm pretty wary of "20/20 hindsight" thinking, but these stories about the HRC camp are proving to be more damning than anything that was actually thrown at her during the campaign. Rule #1 of running as a technocrat is you better deliver the techno. Similarly, the story of HOW the emails...

Been seeing a lot of memes like this one. It drives me nuts. Brian Williams sensationalized a personal anecdote while telling a story on Letterman.

Well, if you truly believe that we should reduce the size of the government by getting rid of a number of departments, I guess this is the way you'd start. Why not just gut their budgets then?

Rick Perry as Energy Secretary Trump has put a fox in charge of every single hen house. It is a sick, awful joke. I really want to know what is going on in the inner circle.
