I have so few followers because I remove the sock puppets.

So you should be asking not why I have so few, but why you have so many.

@TimRunsHisMouth Not "zero." Somewhere around 4,000.

According to the last reliable SPLC numbers, that's about how many true neo-Nazis are in the country.

@IonaItalia I find it rather annoying, and then, like a mature adult, I simply ignore it and get on with other things.

People give things like this far more attention that it deserves.

@Nemiaishere "Halal" is the set of dietary rules applying to Muslims. It is not a set of moral rules required to be followed by everyone under Islamic law.

So...no. Because halal does not apply to me.

And honestly...no true Muslim would ask, only apostates.

@thuhkang Argument to authority. "I'm a CEO, so I know more than you."

@FitzMagic_14 "Say my name."

"You're Heisenpatrick..."

@FitzMagic_14 It's not a bad hat, though it does look a little like you're going to be making meth out of an RV in the desert Southwest.

@DarrigoMelanie If 400 idiots exercising their freedom to be idiots is a threat to our country, the country isn't worth saving to begin with.

@thuhkang @JoeSquawk @CNBC I'm sure it was only slightly less insufferable than listening to Agnetha Fältskog and Frida Lyngstad.

(Yes, still slightly salty about this morning's alarm.)

[tblersch @Another_DC_Tom]

@unusual_whales So how many killed, how many wounded, and how many of the wounded were unrecoverable losses (i.e. not able to return to the battlefield.)

Details like that matter. Military forces have, in history, suffered greater than 100% casualties and still fielded an effective force.

[tblersch @Another_DC_Tom]

@thuhkang That would be the first coherent goal of this war I've heard.

@ma1ybe Do you have any idea what happens to people like him in prison? You don't want to kill him, you want him in prison for the rest of his life. Death is too kind.

[tblersch @Another_DC_Tom]

@MomAngtrades Problem is that the kids of illegals can be legal citizens, so now you're setting the precedent for punishing kids for "the sins of the father."

Against which is a long-standing legal principle, and might not be a precedent you want to set (e.g. reparations).

@thuhkang No one else thinks the pink one is ambiguous?

(Think about it...)

@Lfromthenorth @InoAscended @Jeff_neel Gotta admit, the 5k result in that site surprised me.

@harrisd83 @JohnAnthonyMD @BuckSexton 1981 gives 82 a run for its money. So do 83 and 84.

The '80s overall were a prime movie decade, with the emphasis still on storytelling, before big-budget effects-driven movies took over.

@sometimesjoey @nypost Don't really know the nature of what he was doing. He "advanced on her," but that's a statement lacking a hell of a lot of relevant detail.

[tblersch @Another_DC_Tom]

@JimHansonDC I never had a problem with setting the AC at 78.

As long as the air is dry - which it generally is after the compressor removes the humidity - it seems perfectly comfortable.

And I'd bet most people complaining about it being "too high" would find a 78 degree day idyllic.

@IonaItalia Between this and they're approach towards homosexual "treatment"...post-war Britain sure had some questionable "social hygiene" practices.
