But for all her foibles and missteps, the grown-up Andrea is primarily sympathetic: funny, honest about her warts-and-all character, dry, all too human, often kind (her treatment of her sister-in-law notwithstanding) and stuck in a place that is far better than the one she came from.

Miller's pass resulted in a goal for the Rangers — and of course it did, because his team, after opening an Eastern Conference semifinal series with two narrow defeats, played in a 4-1 win as if it had spent the past three days reliving its foibles and vowing never to repeat them.
These emulations arrive in a different register from past presidential impersonations, which were mostly about lampooning the foibles of the commander in chief (Will Ferrell's "strategery," Dana Carvey's "Wouldn't be prudent") rather than submitting to his linguistic worldview: "huge" and "tremendous," among others, are difficult not to hear with a Trumpian affect.
Even at high volumes, all the usual headphone foibles of distortion or resonance are simply missing from the Sennheiser HD 800 S.

As Republicans awkwardly answer questions about Stormy Daniels' and the swirl of allegations against Trump, Democrats worry that a constant focus on the President's foibles through November will knock candidates off message, making it almost impossible for more policy focused messaging on health care, taxes and economic instability to break through the Trump messaging vortex.
Paley's unwavering trust in the power of the collective was essential for her activism, as her clear-eyed affection for the foibles and fallibility of the individual was essential for her art, and it is a delight to encounter both Paleys in a single volume, where they can usefully converse with each other across genres.

But the Pixel has a million little foibles that make it kind of crappy: the USB-C port at the bottom is sharp and digs into my fingers when I hold it, Bluetooth connections are easily cut off if I cover up the glass window on the back, and the headphone audio coming out of the Pixel is just terrible.
The truth is that in addition to not protecting women, we are failing boys: failing to raise them to believe they can be men without inflicting pain on others, failing to teach them that they are not entitled to women's sexual attention and failing to allow them an outlet for understandable human fear and foibles that will not label them "weak" or unworthy.

If Apple's aversion to potentially scandalous storylines is as extreme as The Wall Street Journal article makes it seem — requesting the removal of crucifixes from a set to avoid offending religious sensibilities in an M. Night Shyamalan drama; parting ways with show-runners because of the "dark tone" they were taking in a reboot of Steven Spielberg's Amazing Stories and the big budget vehicle for Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon; spiking the Dr. Dre show entirely — it may not even be able to field series as enjoyable as reported Cook favorite Friday Night Lights (which featured teenage sex, underage drinking, abortion, and extreme religiosity alongside the familial and football foibles of Eric and Tammy Taylor).
