Not that I think that this particular situation is a big deal, but if we're being real, falling is significantly different from being flung. That you use the former as a euphemism for the latter serves to point out how little regard large corporations have for individual results, an attitude that trickles down from…

I got Black Flag, four Attack On Titan volumes and an iTunes gift card.

My parents didn't have much this year with my mom being out of work and all but I'll be damned, this was one of the best Christmases ever. They really tried their best and the amount of thought they've shown to everyone in my family is just…

Wow. Just came home from a viewing and I am shocked to say that I did not enjoy The Desolation of Smaug.

Nobody doubts his skill... but is skill all you need to be considered an athlete?

Pretty simple system:

I'm seeing a lot of the same mistake being made in these comments. People dismiss or even celebrate the loss of livelihood being discussed here because they don't really understand what the job is. They consider this to be "not a real job." I half expect to see "and go get a haircut, ya hippie" after some of them with…

Youtube Let's Players often have the most success with games like Slender, Amnesia, Outlast and ofcourse Minecraft, made by people who embrace the fact that they're selling more games because of all this free coverage. A lot of people…

At least we know who she'll call with her one phone call?

Michael Jordan retired from the NBA to play Baseball and then returned to Basketball. Space Jam was based on a true story.

Ethletes..?

"A little thing that can turn into anything at anytime."

I liked the fact that it sort of abandoned structure and instead became a deep dive into the mental duress Katniss has experienced over the past 2 books and continues to experience, even after the point where a more traditional plotline would end. Becomes far more about the fallout of war after its over, how it…

Try Googling images of the burns the woman received from the coffee. She was very right to sue.

Yep. I for years thought it was the perfect "stupid law suit" example until I learned the actual facts of the case — for the most part, it just takes showing someone images of the burns the woman received to realize that the coffee was insanely, even criminally, hot.
