I have to believe that you were sent here for a reason. And even if it takes the rest of your life, you owe it to yourself to find out what that reason is.
The West Wing: The State Dinner
by Juliette
‘You know, one of the things that happens when I stay away too long is that you forget you don’t have the power to fix everything. You have a big brain, and a good heart, and an ego the size of Montana. You do, Jed. You don’t have power to fix everything. But I do like watching you try.’
On the evening of a state dinner for an Indonesian diplomat, Bartlet has to negotiate with truck drivers threatening to go on strike, a hostage situation goes badly wrong when Mandy gets involved, Sam’s special friend turns up under an assumed name, Donna struggles to find an interpreter who speaks the correct Indonesian language and a hurricane threatens to take out a tender ship full of expendable ensigns.
The Wire: The Target
by Ben P. Duck
McNulty: “Got to let him play, this is America.”
Two events open this series: the pointless murder of the hapless Snot Boogie, and the trial of D’Angelo Barksdale. Both establish basic truths for the series, that violence and decay are endemic and that the system is not effective in combating it.
Community: Intermediate Documentary Filmmaking
by Mark Greig
“Thank God he didn’t take it. Could you imagine bouncing a check to Kunta Kinte?”
Documentary parodies are nothing new in the world of comedy. The Baron Haden-Guest (better known to the plebs as Christopher Guest) has made a career out of them, while mockumentary sitcoms like The Office, Parks and Recreation and Modern Family (which this episode is essentially a parody of) have proved to be popular. While Megan Ganz clearly has a lot of fun with the documentary format here, it is ultimately nothing more than a gimmick, a different way to tell the story. Fortunately this story is so strong that even without the documentary format I would still consider this to be one of Community’s finest.
Sharks get a bad rap for being dangerous predators that are constantly devouring humans, but there is a whole world of things out there that will kill before a shark does. Here are just a few of those things.

Reason why I hate cats. They’re so scary.
#Reasons why I hate babies #they do this and everyone blames the pet
THAT’S WHY YOU TEACH YOUR KIDS NOT TO SLAP THE FUCKING CAT
I grew up in a family with lots of animals. [mostly small dogs.] I was taught to respect them. To treat them like my family. Would I hit my mom, my siblings? No. Do I hit the animals? NO. If I hit, slapped or maliciously hurt one of them and they bit or scratched at me.. well, that’s my ass because I should know better and the animal was defending itself.
If any child ever does this shit to my animals.. the CHILD gets reprimanded, not the animal. My nephew was absolutely BANNED from touching our animals because he was mean to them. My baby brother was 5, he straight up PUNCHED our 13 year old dog in the face.. she bit him in the face, he got stitches in his nose. He hasn’t laid a finger on her since.
I think people really need to teach their children, especially small children to respect animals.
Fully in support of all of the above. Cats are scary? How about the little kid who just up and hit an unoffending animal for no good reason? The cat was defending semself!
but nooo, cats are evil and scary always
That kid got what he deserved.](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0zztsqQZF1r0b0npo1_400.gif)
