If you don't like it, you're welcome to leave as well

Nice to see Microsoft really looking out for consumers and making the purchasing decisions easier for them this console cycle. "Get the PS4 and play like you always have, but better, or go with us and get screwed. You're choice."

I use OverDisk, which I discovered from Lifehacker way back in 09, as a free Spyglass alternative for disk visualization. Very handy

I've had ING Direct for years, and love mobile banking. Is there any reason I should check out Simple? I don't see myself leaving ING Direct, but would it make me change my mind? Or would it hurt to have accounts with both?

Castle, which is surprising since their writers are usually pretty geek savvy

Doing some research, apparently Pushpins has at least been around for two years, and their android app was expected in early 2011, so I wouldn't hold my breathe for it

Correlation vs causation is the point I'm trying to make. Just because a high number of assholes happen to also have the same traits women are looking for, doesn't mean women are looking for the asshole part. Those guys are successful DESPITE being assholes, not because of it. I love ground beef and french fries, so I…

Attacking someone for their looks is akin to calling someone out for their behavior in your books?

Well, I do have a problem with the guys trying to interfere with your actual relationship. They probably deluded themselves into thinking you were in an unhappy relationship, but really, to try and take you away from a healthy relationship means they are valuing their own happiness at the expense of yours. So you do…

You. This. So much correctness in a single post.

The problem is the idea that women like the "asshole" type. This is not true. Many women like honest, confident, assertive men. A guy who will be up front with them about their intentions from the get go. Unfortunately, these is a level of correlation with these traits and being an asshole, but that's not the part…

Were any of them able to maintain being friends with you after you shot them down? I can admit to being attracted to female friends, but that attraction should be able to be separate from the friendship itself.

I think the "owing sex" part of it is dramatic license, but just looking at the general pool of guy friends I have, yeah this behavior is common. I'll clarify in that I hang out with a geekier crowd, so it may not be common among groups of men who in general have high self esteem (high school example of geeks vs…

That is a great recipe for finding happiness in yourself, I wish people would follow that advice more. But even when you tell someone that, they will often internalize that to mean it's them that's the problem, and no one wants that. It's much easier to blame someone else than to blame yourself.

I have a few issues here with this whole thing.

Just like we gun owners are pretty fucking tired of people with little understanding of guns blaming them to high heaven for every tragedy and calling for bans.

I know, I was simplifying to dramatize my argument. My apologies

I'm not sure you do. A semi automatic applies to any and all guns that reload themselves after a shot, but require a trigger pull for each bullet.

This. Everything about this. I mean, setting the standards would be difficult, and the physical health checks may be a bit extreme (yes to mental health, but why do they need to know if I had high cholesterol 2 years ago?) but still, this is a reasonable middle point between freedom to own and public security

But wouldn't that be cool? If we found out that Superman really did have to eat 35,000 calories just to function? I want to read THAT comic
