I humbly accept the cookie, and split it in two and offer you the slightly-larger half, because you're right, it shouldn't merit a cookie. It should be a baseline expectation. The notion that it's "just some idiots" is exactly the attitude that allows these things to remain, guys holding their comfort with the status…

It's been a reminder I've received a few times, as much as some of us men may consider ourselves allies, we must always be careful not to create that good vs bad mentality in our own minds, and remember that we grew up in a lot of the same attitudes and assumptions and are thus sometimes prone to goofing up. That goes…

I apologize for giving the impression that they surprised me. It wasn't that I was shocked that they happen, but that there's a difference between knowing and actually having someone share it from their own point of view. It's like the difference between having read all about Mt. Everest and actually going there and…

Thank you for pointing this out.

As a guy who was already fairly aware that these things take place, it still felt like being hit by a tsunami reading all these tweets yesterday and this morning. Guys trying to argue that "Not all men!" do these things need to shut the fuck up and realize that enough of us do that EVERY SINGLE WOMAN has a story. Just…

But were these good guys with guns, or bad guys with guns? Maybe bad guys with good guns and the guns were just doing their civic duty! LaPierre was right!

Gawker had a post the other day in which a man open carrying had his gun "accidentally" discharge in the holster. Sounds like he missed one of those ifs.

It's from Norse mythology. Yggdrasil is the Tree of Life, everything that exists basically exists somewhere in relation to it, while not necessarily being a part of it.

My Sheps were Danielle, Dan (feminine of my name, diminutive of my name), and Joseph (because, well, duh).

The second is correct, Ig-drah-sil.

Yeah, not quite sure how I initially misread that. So then I agree, Kaijukiin would be more apt.

Depends on what they're trying to imply. Dovah transliterates to "dragon", or "dragon hunter", while kiin is "child" or "born". Since kaiju means "strange beast", Dovahkaiju would be roughly "dragon strange beast", while Kaijukiin would be "strange beast child" or "strange beast born". Given that Dovahkiin is a…

Top Ten is an entirely under-appreciated, under-referenced series.

There's a few mods where people already ran with that concept. One turns the weapons into genitals.

Always amusing to witness someone going through the effort to inform everyone that they don't really have anything to say.

Your reading comprehension really needs work.

Uncommon based on an arbitrary metric, far more common in terms of the communities into the subjects being cosplayed. If we assumed your metric as standard, every single hobby is peculiar, rendering the judgment effectively meaningless. Unusual is still subjective. You're still wrong.

"Pecular" is, by definition, an opinion. That you can't understand the distinction suggests nothing positive about you. What is peculiar to one person is not to another. Adults get paid to play dress up all the time, why is it suddenly odd when it's a hobby instead?

You're right, we should all be adults who insult people for enjoying their hobbies on the internet.
