Do they wear patchouli? Smoke from a bong? :-P

She didn't even get to keep the bat? Bullshit!

Ok. I guess the intellectual leap here is moving from your own personal experience to the realization that it is possible the most common experience is not like yours.

Would you argue that there is no connection between pay and experience? And if you wouldn't, would you argue that there is no connection between experience and competence?

I guess, in the world of corner cases, its possible that great pilots accept shitty wages "for the love of flying" while much worse pilots leave to get paid lots more money (to, uh, also fly).

I'm pretty sure I can. Since you don't know the full context in which my comment was made (I only provided a small snippet of info, after all!) you can't judge whether I am competent to declare her posts "a tough unhinged."

Why would only the worst pilots leave for higher wages? That just seems counter-intuitive. It's a basic tenet of capitalistic compensation that higher wages attract higher caliber candidates, because you are competing not just against other airlines but also against other career tracks which high-quality candidates…

Dig through? I don't think so, whatever article I read about her had links to her Facebook page right in it. I clicked the link, skimmed some posts (all a year or two or three old), and noted that they were a wee tiny bit crazy.

Check our her Facebook page. Nothing to do with anything related to Rodgers, but her posts make her out to be a little unhinged. It's my opinion, not a "trial." Nothing even wrong with being a little unhinged, either.

It was still a food fight. The only thing that would make calling it a "food fight" inaccurate is if midway through one 14 year old participant pulled out a MAC 10 and mowed down his opponents. Did that happen?

On trial? How so?

It's because she's a hot blonde model. And, judging by her Facebook page, a touch unhinged.

Fair enough. Except Zoe Saldana is black...

Why would they take a landscape video and make it portrait??

The phrase is "intents and purposes" not "extensive purposes." If you think about the difference, you see only one makes any sense.

I've heard it, sure, but generally it's relative isn't it? So "light skinned" in relation to what? I just clarified that, since what you're objecting to is the relative lightness of color of one black woman compared to another. I guess we can be happy that we've come a long way, when tiny melanin differences are…

You mean a "black actress with lighter skin than the also black woman she is portraying" right? Because it's not like they cast Malin Akerman.

Ah. Ironically, I don't recall there ever being a female black character in Highlander, and certainly there was never much chance a woman would become "the One." Maybe someone should actually reimagine that show and cast Saldana, Nyong'o, Sidibe and others. Could be great!

Thanks! I will go on refraining from making value judgments about the color of peoples skin, and you can go on doing the opposite, and I'm sure we will both get what we deserve.

Uzo Aduba's acting has been featured in one single television show and she has never been in a movie of any kind. She doesn't have quite the same resume as Zoe Saldana. You're privileging skin color over demonstrated skill and experience, not to mention popularity and name recognition. I imagine Saldana has been…
