Republicans did a photo-op with all Republicans sitting on one side of a conference table....willing to negotiate with Dems on health care it tried to say...and what a bunch of fakes they were on that day. They had no control of their own party those weeks...the GOP was in the grip of a cult and still is...but they made it look like Obama wasn't doing something right by not tearing up the ACA. How pathetic they were then.

He renounced his Canadian citizenship. What a dumbass. If I could be so fortunate to have a Canadian citizenship, I'd hold on to that like someone was trying to steal my dick.

She has entire rooms filled with every kind of turtle ceramic, jewelry, - just tons of stuff. She even has a turtle USB drive.

So although I always thought highly of turtles, I have new found appreciation of the gentle, apolitical, righteous, and lovable turtle!

As the white-faced boy said it best "I LIKE TOITLES!".

Whenever we go on a scuba diving trip, he will feel totally cheated if he doesn't see at least one turtle. He almost got lost by crazily swimming after one and couldn't find his way back. They are absolutely amazing underwater and definitely the most chill little dudes ever. He calls them "The Gentleman of the Ocean" and thinks your wife has great taste.

We hightailed it back to the boat with the fucker in hot pursuit. He/She (what the hell do I know when my life's flashing before me) was probably a 1000 pounder with a jaw that could probably take off a forearm. Now THAT was fun! But I still love turtles in general. This was actually a tortoise, so I take it all back.

We all had to get back on the boat - it was a huge nasty looking turtle - and he was apparently pissed at us! We went to a different spot. He could have taken an arm off! Or a foot!
