i LOVE these commenters with this 'it was dead when he got suspicious' shit. so her cheating was just totally incidental! fuck him for noticing the unexplained absences and emotional distance! what a suspicious asshole ruining his relationship!

i like a pretty face more than anything else. do a study on chaps like me. oh wait it doesnt generate sensational yet so-derp-theyre-boring headlines.

We all know if we encountered alien civilisation, the religious types would hate them. Not historically the most enlightened or accepting of people in the first place, their natural tendency toward the hate that small minds generate of everything unlike themselves has suffered a series of knocks in recent years at the…

Reading the comments, I personally don't quite understand the ferociousness of the women involved. It's definitely a long way beyond irritation at your 20 dollars being wasted on what turned out to be a tech blog interview (attempted), which could have been addressed by asking for money back since they had the site's…

I've been outright told by more than one woman, regarding both my own frequent circumstance and others, 2 things pertinent to this;

This kid seems to parrot the "adults can wear what they want" line. Dollars to doughnuts, somewhere in her upbringing, women wearing slutty clothes has for some reason been an issue and that was her parents/mothers stock response. I know 7 year olds. They don't trot out lines like that normally.

i dont get one text a day, who the fuck is meant to be sending 50 and what happened to their better things to do

Well they did. The guys up top have their helmets off, which are as thick and gothic as the rest of the armour. You picked the wrong franchise to level this accusation at, buddy. Not only does it predate the kind of game design you're attacking, not only is it only recently anything to even do with videogames, but it…

it wouldnt be hard to avoid a seam in a plaster cast. i think its more likely that what they have of the fossil after the 'reconstruction' has that in it. they may say it was complete but you do not dig fields in the cotswolds and pull up intact fossils; to be sat in surface soil it has to have been dredged up there…

I hate his books. I hate them so much I do believe I would hate him as a person as well, because only a fucked up mind could write such fucked up tosh and take it so seriously. I hope someone's gone Misery on his ass.

Given the mounting indications of the Doctors difficulty as a time manipulating semi-immortal alien in dealing with humans and their uninformed short lives, I do wonder if Moffat will actually move ahead on the old-school continuity idea that his next regeneration will be a dick. I could forgive him for saying 'screw…

The gap between Aliens and Halo, which you could consider the first game to truly popularise a "space marine" style, is 20 years. Between Aliens and Doom, widely considered the first popular FPS at all, 5 years. There were as many films featuring space military before Aliens came out as there have been since if not…

Many forms of female circumcision don't involve cutting off the clitoris. It can be cutting around it, or slicing off the labia, or even chemical cauterising of the interior. And I'd hesitate to suggest "they" do it to prevent a woman "having fun". That may be the historical and religious idea, but the benighted…

I expect slowed down. There's lots of evidence that we default to longer and longer waking hours when unprompted to maintain a regular cycle.

I always question research and conclusions like this for one simple reason;

Don't even. I've tried that line of reasoning with people myself who've done or had happen the same thing. Turns out that over the course of the first decade of the 21st century, it became commonplace for young people to take and distribute naked pictures of themselves. It seems to be either the done thing in a sexual…

There's nothing feminine about housework or childcare. A man needs to live clean and raise his children properly. I would not call a slovenly oaf who ignores his kids a proper man if he was a millionaire war hero. If this is a real attitude out there, rather than just a social accident of pre-feminist male earners…

When I was 12, because I had access and wondered what it was like. No peer pressure. Quickly I decided I liked it for a variety of reasons and spent my teens sneaking around to smoke, very little, on and off, never in public. When I moved out on my own it took off a bit more, still only 5-10 a day. I'll do it for 6…

They didn't diagnose her at all. Painkillers and go home is them taking one look and moving on. We're all very reassured.
