I'm filling out my Nuclear Apocalypse Bingo Card, and I want to make sure that I cover the right square.

Better to laugh while we can, I think.

Is your screen name pronounced like "spa none" or "span one" or "spanon e" or "spano ne?"

I've been wondering about this for yeurs.

We're not talking about bullying a zoning commissioner or humiliating the leaders of a trash political party.

This is nuclear war. An exchange of weapons that never should have been built in an era when facts and consequences of actions are routinely ignored because to worry about such things is effeminate and not manly enough for our knuckle-dragging asshat 'countrymen'.

Americans who voted for and / or support Trump are all war criminals the second their orange god-emperor launches a missile and kills millions in nuclear fires. IF he continues down this path, a patriotic general or group of them should make sure that he is removed from the chain of command by any means necessary. We cannot allow a man talking cavalierly about the most awesome destructive power ever conceived and brought to fruition being deployed in any manner.

they die too? I am channel flipping and one of the commentators said we will all die, like it was a matter of fact. I realize it is a matter of fact, but I'm not taking this well
