Soup quotes: "Good soup" Adam Driver in the episode of HBO's Girls where he says "good soup" "Good soup" Someone who is not Adam Driver, but who nevertheless wishes to express his approval of some soup "Soup" Someone answering the question "what the heck is this?" after being shown a bowl of soup

A lawyer on Twitter got so livid with me when I asked what the point of going to law school was if the 5th Circuit purposefully misinterprets the law to fit their ideology and I stand by that

I told my 98-year-old grandmother that Jimmy Kimmel won against Donald Trump, and she just took a drag on her cigar and replied, "No shit, Sherlock. Jimmy used to host the MAN show, and the only show Pumpkin Putin could ever host is the small HANDS show!" Perfectly put, Meemaw! 🤣😂🤣😂
