See, I don’t mind the giant boobs so much as how they’re contained. Real clothing does not concave between boobs, and if it were cut like that you really wouldn’t want to fight in it, because it would only fit like that if your bra was either deficient or nonexistant. Stupid thing to wear if you’re an intelligent spy…

Yeah, that’s the tricky thing. The icons don’t make a ton of sense, but I don’t have any better ideas. And even if I haven’t seen a floppy disk irl in over a decade, I still recognize it as the save icon, so it’s at least effective for those of us old enough to recognize it.

I dunno, it’s kind of a red flag that they have huge, raging-at-each-other-for-weeks fights in 4 of the last 5 books.

Is anyone else disappointed that they didn’t make a bottle of, I dunno, Ogden’s Old Firewhisky or Madam Rosmerta’s Oak Matured Mead? Am I the only one who cares about accuracy in fictional liquors?

Sure, but having one icon split two different meanings dilutes it’s effectiveness. After all, there are plenty of situations where you’d expect to see both Zoom and Search, and if you have to test an icon to see what it is, it’s not a very effective icon.

Or we’re used to seeing it as an icon to indicate Zoom (which it makes more sense for) rather than Search.

Well, with chopsticks, but when you put your chopsticks down you’re supposed to put them on the side of the plate/bowl, or on the chopstick rest if there is one. If you stick them in the food and leave them there (like I did), particularly if they’re pointing upward, that’s similar to a particular mourning tradition…

That assumes you know they have poor health, which isn’t always the case.

You are entitled to your opinion.

Eeh, I doubt it. If someone were from a culture without cheese, that would be noticeable, there’d at least be an accent (if you’ve spent enough time in America to learn the accent, you’ve been here long enough to know about cheese), and I doubt it would’ve been memorable. If someone doesn’t seem American, no one would…

Fair enough, but there’s a difference between not being versed in a different culture and being ignorant of your own culture. The first time I went to a Japanese restaurant I stuck my chopsticks in my rice, and was informed that that was extremely rude. A kid from that culture would’ve known better at half my age, but…

Depends on the food, but I’m pretty sure that’s just either “bitter” (in the case of over-boiled vegetables) or lack of any other flavors (in the case of boiled anything-else).

Most of his reviews don’t have this much cursing. And yes, he’s asking for patreon money because that’s how many internet reviewers make a living these days.

He’s not normally this angry, his next most recent review was Ant-Man, and that’ll give you a better sense of his usual style if you’re interested. He just rages on the few movies that deserve it, and they’re rare enough to just be entertaining, not annoying.

That one is awesome enough to be exempted. Plus it looks like you can put it down, not like those stupid handheld ones (who wants to juggle something else while holding a cracked egg?). I’m normally in the Alton Brown no-unitaskers camp, but that’s not a unitasker because it definitely qualifies as art.

Indeed! So many options for separating eggs without pointless gadgets!

We have two egg separators, because we have two sets of measuring cups and apparently those come with egg separators now. Neither have ever been used, because who wants to try and crack an egg into this stupid thing that doesn’t even separate eggs that well when you’re already holding the shell which is easier to use…

Am I a horrible person if I was a little relieved by this article? We have a Lafayette in Colorado, and when I heard this on the news this morning I thought it was local, and holy fuck we just finished Holmes’ trial can’t we go a few years without some white male loner shooting a bunch of people in a movie theater?!

Part of it, I think, is that in most countries (that allow guns) you can’t get a gun without extensive training, not just about how to operate it but about when you can use it, what’s appropriate force, because there’s a very narrow range of experiences where guns should be used. I know many gun owners who were once…

I started thinking about onsen when I read the article, too, although in my (limited gaijin) experience, those were gender segregated, which we’re semi-ok-with here (we do have locker rooms and the occasional sauna, after all).
