But at least Oz is calling out that damned "gluten-free" rip-off.

Sarah Palin vs. PeTA—how can that not be hilarious?:
But we can't have a dust-up without someone in "the media" screaming "false equivalence":

One reason why people confess to crimes they didn't commit–false memories:
"Our findings show that false memories of committing crime with police contact can be surprisingly easy to generate, and can have all the same kinds of complex details as real memories"I can think of some witnesses who had false memories, too. (The Register)

Sarah Palin vs. PeTA—how can that not be hilarious?:
She seems to have confused animal rights nuts with her vision of the hated "liberals". She only attacked caviar so that "regular folks" who can't afford it will agree with her. (Crooks & Liars)"I believe you call those discarded funky eggs “caviar”."
But we can't have a dust-up without someone in "the media" screaming "false equivalence":
"Palin struck back by zeroing in with the real reason that groups like PETA have lost influence and credibility: the double standard they employ, denouncing certain behavior by the people they oppose while excusing the same behavior by people they support. Where was the organization last year, she asked, when the liberal talk show hosted by Ellen DeGeneres, posted a similar photo of a girl standing on a dog?"This after tone-deaf false equivalence from someone who has never had any credibility. Add CNN to the list. (CNN)

Not spelling god with a capital G? You've met your match:
"...we’re talking about grammar. When you don’t capitalize a proper name like God’s, you’re violating a fundamental principle of grammar."I'm all for proper grammar having paid attention in English class but all I can say to this person is fuck You. (Butterflies and Wheels)
