The negative reaction is because people don’t like being blamed for things they have nothing to do with. When you approach a problem by blaming an entire community for the actions of individuals, you’re going to get a negative reaction because a lot of people have an emotional investment in that community and when…

I have to agree with everybody else, pretty slim pickings this year. Nothing really interests me until November with Dishonored 2, Pokemon and MAYBE Watch Dogs 2.

Man, I’m looking at my taskbar right now. There’s a program called Battle.net on it. If it’s not Battle.net anymore, what’s it going to be? Is it going to stay Battle.net? Is it just going to be called something else? They aren’t going to leave it blank!

I think he means make it so people with that box checked see everybody else’s helmets as on, but others don’t.

The misogyny shtick is largely abused to talk down legitimate problems with Hillary Clinton. Does it exist in some capacity? Sure, absolutely, but it is utterly blown out of proportion by her supporters to handwave critics away as bigots. I’d much rather have had Michelle Obama running than Hillary.

Do these ones really look younger than the ones in X & Y? I haven’t noticed.

I’m closing in on 30 myself. Your 20s just fly away, don’t they? My mother loved this song. She bought a fridge magnet that would play it whenever someone opened the fridge. One day, I broke it open with a hammer in the backyard.

Is two times really spamming? Also is it spamming if you’re replying to different people just the once?

I have a buddy of mine who loves inside jokes. The only problem is that he will ram them into the ground, mercilessly, long after they’ve stopped being funny. He knows this, but he finds the fact that everybody thinks he’s annoying for doing it hilarious as well. He’ll only stop when people stop giving him reactions,…

The guy was mugged, if he wants to try to get something out of the whole thing by getting money off the stream then I hope he gets rich off of it. I don’t see how that’s a moral failing.

I was generalizing. I’d be surprised if any form of martial arts could, in reality and not in a Steven Segal movie, allow you to see someone behind you you couldn’t see and react to a punch you had no idea or sign would be coming. Or unless you were super paranoid and constantly looking for threats, in which case why…

Do you know who’s way better at real fighting in the street than you are, unless you get REALLY into martial arts for years, maybe (and in an age group to be in good enough condition)? Someone who’d sucker punch you and steal your shit. Because they have experience.

Unfortunately the sucker punch seems to be standard operating procedure for muggers. I was sharing a room in the ER with an older guy who got hit with one on his way to a game, he was passed out bleeding on the sidewalk for awhile before he dragged himself into the hospital.

Karate lessons aren’t going to really protect you from getting sucker punched (and kind of aren’t the end-all be-all solution if you’re, say, not all that physically strong or are too old or young. And good luck with any ‘weapons’ in NYC!) . This guy was ambushed, and while being prepared is a good idea I’m really not…

What the hell is wrong with you?

It amazes me how often people just pull things out of their ass that a simple google search can disprove.

I dunno, you apparently were weak minded enough to fall for the scam of tribalism where you literally believe you are automatically more intelligent than other people because of a group you do or do not belong to.

...that’s not Avril Lavigne.

With 14, you need to be really damn close in age to make that acceptable. According to another comment here he’s 23, which is definitely over the line.

Hah! Those people that ‘point and laugh’ will shut the fuck up once you mention how much money you’re pulling in for working from home when they’re still slaving away for 12 bucks an hour at two jobs because no one can get full time anymore. If you can make good pay off of it, I don’t care HOW ridiculous your job is.…
