Sorry to be off-topic, but where should we make suggestions on the new comment update? Because I would like to suggest an opt-in system where commenters can check a "I'm a big boy on the internet" box and both open themselves to posted images and such and also obviate the need to click "show pending" and read almost…

I was going to say: the boy might realize he's attracted to photoshop, but we'd have no definite evidence he was into women. I've seen worse covers, but whoever did her neck and upper chest has a tenuous grasp of human anatomy.

If you're really curious, you can read this link.

Already done.

That is interesting, although I'd note it's pretty consistent with what I wrote above. At the world-class level—i.e. in relatively standardized competitions—the data do not suggest a physiological advantage for women in distance swimming comparable to, for example, men's physiological advantage in power lifting or…

I'm not saying it's not possible at some distance, only that no standard or marquee event has yet demonstrated it. Looking at, for example, English channel crossings, men appear significantly faster. http://www.channelswimmingassociation.com/results/record…. The fastest recorded man is 23 minutes faster than the…

There may be some distance and incentive structure at which women surpass men because of the bodyfat advantage, but there aren't currently any events that appear to reward it. Even the article is somewhat misleading—Katie Ledecky holds womens' records in the distances listed, but in each event is significantly slower…

The dry cleaning thing above is the only one where the article seems way off. Women's shirts are a goddamn nightmare to clean. Men's shirts are practically uniform, generally much more durable, and most dry-cleaners can't even really get them right.

**SPOILER**

I actually kind of love the way old M-Body New Yorkers look, so when I saw the headline on today's NPOCP I was kind of excited. This is all the wrong things though. These things cry out for thoughtful restomodding and new crate engines, and instead we got ghost flames and the car equivalent of those gross flabby…

I guess I can understand the though process, but they look more like a car bra strapped on the trunklid/c-pillar area. Car diapers, if you will.

I'm still baffled by what they did to the back. I can understand wanting to get rid of the landau, but that? Seriously, that?

Reason 6: Does not come in wagon.

I believe this line of reasoning is amply developed in the literature. See "Stupid Ho," Minaj, N. (2012).

Not familiar with MA laws, but that sounds plausible. Some states make a distinction between handguns and rifles, with much stricter restrictions on handguns. I'd recommend starting with a .22 caliber rifle, and seeing how you enjoy it. You may be able to rent one at a range, and the range may be able to provide…

Preppers, in the United States, are generally right-wing. It's true that the spectrum is more complicated than a simple sliding scale (i.e. all people right of point X hold the same beliefs as people left of point X, plus additional right-wing opinions), but I'm sure that if you sat down and had a long conversation…

Have you ever tried? Because it is a ton of fun, and surprisingly meditative if you don't try to get your hands on the biggest, loudest, killingest thing you can.

Get an older luxury car.

Maybe I've been wrong about about this whole communist totalitarianism thing.
