Sorry class is late, I had a rough night. Here now, will be in and out all day and will try to do better than yesterday.
what an awesome idea! is there a ping list?
Very good word.
Not going to make a joke about it today.
It’s a standard logic fallacy on the left / evolutionarists to use reification as a argument.
“Evolution” or “Science” are given virtual sentience in order to make an argument.
“Science says that...”
Yep, A++
Yes, there is. Do you want on it?
Pretty tough word, so let’s see if I
Understand how the liberals reify
“Hope and change” like it’s real
Libs don’t think; they just feel
And Obama, they bow to and deify
A++++ Good one!
Pollsters and pundits who work for candidates always reify “the electorate” so that candidates can “speak” to it as if it were a person.
The liberals today - ALL of them from academia through the nightly propaganda broadcasts through the Washington establishment reify (er, deify) their godless vision of stereotyped classes and sexes and religions into a “diversity-that-is-to-be-worshipped-above-all-others.”

NY values speak loud and clear throughout the country. When we are out of state and we say we are NYers, we say upstate NY, not the “city”. If you just say NYer, they assume the city and right away dismiss. Immediately. Lesson learned.....I recall one guy saying you are too nice to be from NY. NYcitiers are brash, rude, arrogant and LOUD. LOL I am sure Cruz was understood. A++++
True. A++
On my first visit to my daughter after her move to NY (Albany area) that is the first thing that I noticed on the plane — all of the passengers looked like mid-westerners. They were just up-state NYers heading home for Christmas.
It was quite a different gene pool from what I observed when we’d head into Manhatten from her previous home in northern NJ.
Yeah, anyone from a red county is pretty much the same, and same is true for big city dwellers.
