The tech-loving characters on "The Big Bang Theory" are about to find themselves severely star-struck. The comedy series has booked Microsoft founder Bill Gates to guest star as himself in an upcoming episode, CBS and Warner Bros. tell CNN.
In the episode, Penny (Kaley Cuoco) will find herself hosting Gates at work, and her friends go to great lengths in their effort to meet the billionaire innovator. The episode is set to air in late March.

Turns out having a pathological liar in the Whitehouse has restored some of that confidence. [gallup.com]

Turns out one of CNNs plants asked the wrong senator the wrong questions. Then called him a liar for it because the doufas pushed the wrong buttons on his phone. Trump has been pretty clear. They lie all the time.
Our news is a complete dumpster fire. Yet we want to pretend it is all lolly pops, unicorns and hearts.
Gallup. As my friends from highschool that worked there put it 'questions made up by someone to push some agenda but it pays 15 bucks an hour'.
It is all in the way you put it. Care to comment on that?

Sure, mostly a waste of time, but I'll bite.
1).. " asked the wrong senator the wrong questions. Then called him a liar for it because the doufas pushed the wrong buttons on his phone.."
What? It might help if you we not, possibly intentionally, being so vague.
Perhaps this is obvious to someone glued to the TV?
Is that how you get people to make up shit? Make half of it and let them do the rest after getting their prejudices and anger flared up?
2) Trump has been pretty clear. They lie all the time.
Hmm.. A compulsive liar is clear about saying other people lie all the time..
It sounds like accusing your opponent of exactly what you are doing; otherwise known as "Blame shifting".
3) Yet we want to pretend it is all lolly pops, unicorns and hearts.
No we do not.
4) As my friends from highschool that worked there put it..
Sure, I can see that being possible.
5) It is all in the way you put it
No. It is how it is. Further, something isn't true because you like hearing it or like the person saying it. You need to be rational, not make assumptions out of convenience and try to be truthful to yourself first.
