Being incapacitated is no more clear a distinction, as it simply means "lacking sufficient understanding to make rational decisions or engage in rational actions". Any degree of intoxication arguably affects such understanding, and there are clearly situations where someones inability to make rational decisions…

Is there not also a definitional problem specifically in regards to intoxication? Two parties, both drunk, are both legally unable to consent, and so both are being raped by the other. Of course I think anyone can see that being drunk neither renders one completely incapable of consenting, nor in any way incapable of…

Hm, I think "bah"k (like bah, bah black sheep, but maybe a bit shorter...so I guess more like bah humbug) might be a better approximation, but I am also rather stumped on how to get english speakers to pronounce a german ch correctly. I guess if they've heard "ich" pronounced correctly (not just by JFK) maybe they can…

First off, how the hell are you supposed to draw a vagina? Phrasing the question that way already betrays some fairly severe anatomical ignorance. I also find it amusing that the first guy entirely failed to include/label the vaginal opening (or is that the "no mans land"...or does he think thats what the labia is?).

The fedora gets a lot of unfair blame, it's really trilbys that douchebags tend to wear.

We aren't even talking about being insulted by the amount of tip, rather the form it is coming in. If you would be happy with the tip if it were only bills, it shows extreme entitlement to then be so bothered that it isn't in the form you like. And for me, if you restrict me to just bills, I'd probably end up rounding…

I grew up in a fairly rural area so there weren't really many beggars or musicians in the street. Also most times I see a full tip jar it's got a lot of coins in it. Or is there just some exception for if it's in jar form? There's a certain entitlement to finding extra money someone has voluntarily given you an insult.

I think it has to do with the victim actively breaking the rules and putting himself in a position of danger. There was no need for him to get out of his car, let alone walk toward the middle of the track and get in the way of the other cars. I don't know anything about racing, but watching this video I definitely…

Ah thats true, I did miss that, thanks!

It's not a very commonly used meaning, but in economics secular means "occurring or persisting over an indefinitely long period". It's nothing to do with religion, but rather with the latin saecularis 'relating to an age or period.' Admittedly the more commonly used meaning (non-religious) is also derived from the…

I don't get it, hasn't every single person who has approached that group of goombas killed that goomba by causing him to spawn and immediately plummet to his death?

About 50% of gawker media stories I see I've seen earlier on Reddit. I don't mind as much on the other gawker sites, but on Jezebel it smacks of extreme hypocrisy since they go out of their way to make fun of and demonize reddit (which is silly since it's so far from being a monolithic entity). For people who claim to…

It's a touchy subject, and there's obviously a more tactful way to raise it than saying "You should have to put your credit card down before you can even have this conversation," but it's an established fact that in America (especially for women) weight is generally inversely correlated with income level, so there is s…

I'm not a foreigner, I grew up in the US, am a citizen, and have always found the mandatory tipping culture terrible.. Check your xenophobia (since you're clearly fine with a native like yourself not liking the tipping culture).

No, I said otherwise they build up in my wallet forever, I assume waiters also need to tip people sometimes (or get exact change occasionally). I do use coins outside of tipping, just not with nearly the frequency I receive them (hence the eternal build up), and with tipping I do use all my coins. So no, that doesn't…

US doesn't have an official language, and spanish is the 2nd most common language spoken in the states, so yes, lots of people understand them. The US is the 5th biggest spanish speaking country in the world (by # of people who speak the language). Also, 20% of Americans don't speak english at home. It's a US server,…

I'm not talking about leaving a 5 dollar tip of only coins, I'm talking about leaving a tip with a few bills and also unloading some of my coins (cause otherwise they just build up forever in my wallet). Also, as legal tender, wouldn't a manager be legally required to accept it as payment of a debt? And again,…

I don't get it, why shouldn't I tip with coins? "They're a pain to deal with" sounds like a silly excuse (they are not that hard to pick up, and do not weigh that much), and they are officially not valueless in American society, no matter what you claim; if someone gives you a dollar in coins, it is worth just as…

Glitch and bug are synonyms. Glitches can be reproducible, not sure why you think that isn't the case.

How the teams performed against each other is the decider after goal differential, so since US beat Ghana, US would go on. If the teams tied each other (e.g. if Portugal somehow manages to tie points and GD) then it comes down to how many goals total were scored by the team.
