But seriously, it follows the same rules as "me", "my", and "mine".
No, it doesn't. The GP's usage was correct. The word "thine" is also used instead of "thy" when the word after it begins with a vowel.
You can do that with "mine" too; it's just an older form that doesn't get used much anymore. If I want to sound archaic and formal, I can talk about "mine own laptop computer" and still be grammatically correct (though, again, sounding like a prick). Even if that weren't true, though, "cannot trust thy anymore" is not ever OK.
Great, and now I sound like a prick even arguing about it. Bah!
Why is it so hard for people to use "thee", "thy", and "thine"? I mean, I know people don't know it because it's archaic, and I know it's only really used facetiously. But seriously, it follows the same rules as "me", "my", and "mine". Try telling someone "you cannot trust my anymore." The confusion should be good for a laugh.
And who decides if the amendment is related to the bill or not? The majority party? Luckily our congress would never act in a petty & partisan manner by randomly punishing their political opponents just because they can.
Believe it or not, Congress is not made up only of Congressmen. There are various nonpartisan offices whose job is to analyze everything brought to them - for example, the Congressional Budget Office. This could just create the Congressional Relevance Office.
What would we need to do to make this kind of shit illegal? A law? A constitutional amendment? I don't think it would be too hard to get 2/3 of Americans to agree that any amendment or rider to a bill should be relevant to that bill's stated purpose.
To be fair, it is probably longer than 15s to actually bring the temp all the way down. But the air coming out is immediately cold, and the moving cold air makes the car feel much cooler than it probably is. That's compared to a start in cold weather, where it takes multiple minutes for the air coming out of the vents to be warm at all, let alone bring the temp all the way up.
Also, frozen nose hairs on your coworkers smell a lot better than sweat.
Do they? I honestly could never tell, because MY NOSE WAS FROZEN.
On the clothing point, if I'm outside for more than ten seconds, it's because I'm doing something physical, and I'd much rather do that in shorts and a tank top than bundled head-to-toe like a medieval knight. And I'd rather be doing it with other people in skimpy clothing than other people who look like shapeless lumps of padding.
In addition, it's a lot easier to drive in a warm climate. An A/C doesn't have a start-up period, so even on the hottest days my car will cool to room temp within 10-15 seconds of starting it. In freezing weather you have to sit there, still bundled up and looking like the Michelin man, for the 3-4 minutes until the engine warms up enough that the heater will work (and that's after the five minutes spent scraping ice!).
I will concede one point, and that's that shoveling snow made me a lot more money as a kid than mowing lawns ever did.
I've never understood "x is too hot" arguments. Personally, I like warm weather and despise the cold. I can't stand the feeling of freezing my nose hairs off in winter. I'm sitting in the middle of a Houston summer right now and it barely bothers me - I get to go to the pool after work every day and it feels great (and no, I'm not a Houston native).
I see this all the time though. "Nobody wants to work there, it's too hot!" Never "Nobody wants to work there, it's too cold!" Am I so much in the minority that it's never even considered that people might want a warm climate?
Well, duh. The photographic equipment used for these pictures was obviously damaged by the same van Allen radiation belts that killed any astronaut dumb enough to leave low Earth orbit!
When I homebrew, I create a batch of beer. Then I put it in a keg marked "BUD LIGHT (but better!)" and sell it to bars. But Anheuser-Busch served me a C&D and now I can't do that anymore. Is this the end of homebrewing?
That is currently true. However, an up-and-coming competitor for the AIDS-cure crown is a therapy that flushes latent HIV out of dormancy, to be monitored or killed. So it soon might be possible.
But see, you're missing my point, which is that both you and the article are making a huge assumption: that FB had to go public. If your friend jumps off a cliff and breaks his leg in shallow water, you don't ask "Well, why didn't you do it at high tide, dumbass?" You ask "Why the hell did you jump off a cliff?"

Extra info on the leadership positions. Possible to be corrupt, but difficult.
And who decides who's on that office?
I really like the idea, I'm just worried about what the implementation would be.
A normal hiring process. Using the CBO as an example again, here's their "career opportunities" page.
I am well aware of high capacity magazine, but I have never seen stripper clips more than 5 rounds, and moon clips are for revolvers.
Don't worry. Most other men can't go five rounds with a stripper either. Nobody's that high-capacity.

So they'll stop trying to pass off speculation as news? Or they'll start actually asking pertinent questions, such as in TFA above? The horror!
No.
Wait, shit.
I wonder how long before they start devouring human flesh?
...the mad ramblings of a fringe margin of society.
Just wait; next they'll be judging public opinion off of Slashdot comments!

Quoting the Heritage Foundation is akin to a Godwin.
If you were as much of a self-righteous ass in high school as you are now, I would've shoved you into a locker too.
Next they'll be creating "parent-friendly" vegetables that tell you when your kid is slipping them to the dog under the table.
Well, at some point you have to stop smiling to scream "Get away from her, you bitch!"

Does anyone else find that logical jump a little odd?
The phone shouldn't have been wearing such slutty firmware. It was just asking for this to happen!
