Domestic Debaters Mugs

"You might want to save that for your blog."

Food Wars: "Thrilla in Peekskilla"

Things were going downhill all evening for Brad and Zelda until they finally reached a tipping point.

Going Shopping Together.

'What we need, Edward, are some new things to argue about.'

"Surely I'm allowed an opinion!"

"O.K., O.K., people - we're not workshopping these, they're already set in stone."

"I really miss being in a committed relationship, Randy." "Which part do you miss most?" "Having someone disagree with you over what you're going to eat, or over what TV shows you're going to watch? Or do you miss having to account for how you spend your time? Or having to explain why you bought yourself something awesome without first getting permission?" "Mostly I miss the back rubs. They don't ask you to wash the dishes first at massage parlors."

Dialogue

"The best part is that we got hell to pay for it."

Changing Minds

"Now that's a win."

"Strawman argument terrorises conversation... News at eleven."

'It's a senior management position. We need someone who can listen politely, and then say no.'

"That's six 'noes' and one 'aye', the ayes have it"

"Mainstream? Who's to say what's mainstream?"

"Maybe the unseen hand of the market will change the diaper."

Always Compatible

Netanyahu versus Gantz

"I don't think Dawson understands the concept behind the 'Talking Stick.'"

'I'm terribly worried, Doctor - he doesn't talk back to Bill O'Reilly any more.'

"On the contrary, Bosworth, it's YOU who has lost all perspective."

Oz Debating Society. You can't refute everything I say just by call it a "straw man" argument.

"Ever notice how grateful people are when you present them with facts contrary to their beliefs?"

The Church of DanaeDanaeism: 'And let such sacrilege go uncontested? Never! I demand equal time for alternate explanations of things.'

'I'm now going to open the floor to questions.'

Crooked Hillary... Pig... Sad!... Not a Ten!...

"If I vote my conscience, it's Sanders. If I vote my pocketbook, it's Trump. If I vote my emotions, it's Hillary. If I vote my anger, it's Cruz..."

You're on "Ask Sadie." What's your problem?! Super delegates. A candidate could win the most votes in the primaries but lose anyway of the superdelegates want someone else! Can you believe that? Oh stop yer sniveling. In my day, the parties chose candidates in smoke-filled backrooms without even pretending the people get a vote. At least this charade gets you out of the house. Gets the blood pumping. I guess.

Like Minded

Debating Society. I can accept that money is speech as long as we can agree that some spending is like yelling fire in a theater.

The Clinton Campaign, post-mid-September

A bunch of global warming skeptics want to join eco club. It's a school organization. You have to let them in. But they just want to harass us with selective facts! Today: Eco club. So? Debate is good. You have :An Inconvenient Truth" to counter their arguments. Oh. Great. Now we'll have to read it.

And now, for a rebuttal.

Nearly a third of the earth's life-forms have gone extinct. Cut! Stop with all the facts. This is debate club! But we're using a cable tv talk show format! What should I say? Unsupported opinions
