I just don't get it. I mean, 2/3 of men would be pissed if their wife wouldn't take their name? Seriously? Is my man-brain not thinking straight, because I just can't fathom why its that important to them. If you love someone enough to marry them, you should damn well respect them enough to be supportive of their…

As was stated elsewhere in this thread, only the audience knows how poor some of Andrea's choices were. They honestly aren't as bad from her first-person perspective. I really don't think she's any less of awel-drawn character than Rick, who is supposedly the hero.

I've defended Andrea before in these arguments, and I think most people really were fans of Carol's character arc over the last season and a half, but I have no problems with the majority of the vitriol leveled at Lori's character (well not rapey fantasies, that's beyond fucked up, but I too actively wanted her killed…

I think Kenan is hilarious, but they should keep him far far away from impressions. His comedic timing is brilliant, at his delivery is awesome, but all of his impressions come off sounding the exact same.

The idea that domestic violence increases on Super Bowl Sunday (or on days in general when a home football team loses) is a myth. That's not to take away from your point about social power structures enabling abuse and discrimination, but to somehow single out "football" or "sports" for it is wrong.

If it wasn't football it would be hockey, or basketball, or lacrosse, or jai alai. The problem isn't in sports, its in the social structures we build around them (the veneration of of high school football stars, the money that's involved even at the high school level) and that exist regardless of them (rape culture,…

Indeed. The main reason that Dads hasn't been cancelled yet isn't nepotism or Neilsen ratings or the "power of the white male", it's just inertia. It takes time for the networks to make the decision to pull the plug on a heavily marketed show that is doing poorly (although not absolutely disastrously) in the ratings.

I think you might be right when talking specifically about naked selfies, but if you expand it more broadly to "embarrassing pictures" then I'd say at some point almost everyone will have those online. I mean, almost anyone who's gone to college in the last 5 (or 10 even?) years probably has pictures on facebook that…

I think the point isn't that it's thin/attractive people endorsing junk food, it's that it's athletes, people that are undeniably healthy, that are doing it. "Thin" is not synonymous with healthy, but "playing in the NBA" sure is. You could see how a kid could have a hard time reconciling the message that sugary…

While I wholeheartedly agree with the general sentiment of this article, I did a bit of a doubletake on the "the law says it's rape. The end." phrase. I mean sure, in this case that's right, but the law is not always right. It's not right in many countries around the world which restrict human rights, and it's not…

I'll just leave this here, since he does a better job defending the movie (or at least the intentions if not the result) than I ever could, but long story short: satire does not equal endorsement, and failing to get a point across does not mean that the point was invalid.

Sol every time. That stuff goes down like water, but without the wretched aftertaste you'd usually associate with that phrase. Don't mind Dos Equis or Modelo, but can't stand Corona. Tecate just tastes cheap.

Mill Street's best beer (in my mind) is the Doppel Pils. I'm not the biggest fan of Pilseners, but this one is really a standout. Honestly you can't go wrong with most of their brews, unless like me you have a strong aversion to most wheat beers.

For Ontario craft brews I'm a big fan of Junction Conductor's Ale and Muskoka Mad Tom IPA. Also don't mind Hop City's Barking Squirrel, but that's one of those weird beers where the canned version tastes really different (in a bad way) than the tap version.

St Louis, San Jose, and Vancouver are the obvious picks. Some people (who put too much emphasis on pre-season) think a young Oilers team could surprise. My personal sleeper is Minnesota, they were supposed to make some noise last year and never did, maybe with time their new acquisitions will gel; plus the've got…

Exactly. No one (or at least no one intelligent) is saying "all men are better at sports than women". But at the far tip of the curve, where you find the absolute freaks who are olympic and professional athletes, the differences in the average are magnified.

The Serengeti Ranch, the animal exhibitor that we believe supplied the animals for the Roar video, has been inspected by the US Department of Agriculture 22 times since 2001.

Don't knock it before you read it. Greg Rucka is probably in the top 10 (at least) in terms of modern comic book writers, and has a track record of writing great female characters, including a run on Wonder Woman and Gotham Central, and great stories in general, such as a large part of the No Man's Land arc on Batman.…
