If only the article had explicitly spelled out the exact scenario you are complaining about. You know something like:

Is that a No More Wife Beater?

Not sure if an official suspect, but worth posting:

OK this is a fairly lengthy tale, so try to bear with me.

The TAS runs that do basically the exact same thing have been console-confirmed for basically forever. The only thing of note here is that he managed to input a very precise set of commands that did pretty much what the (several existing) TAS runs already do... substantially faster.

These stories vindicate the course I took of bottling up my feelings, not discussing them with anyone, and not trying to pull off stuff like this.

This was almost my exact reaction to your comment.

I got knocked out by a sucker punch at a bar, I fell unconscious face first into the ground. When I woke up I was concussed and could not remember what happened. So I said I fell down after being robbed. It wasnt a lie it was what I told my friends because I was half dead. I stuck with that story until I realized…

Allenby is a world-class golfer. He should be able to get out of a tough lie.

I wonder about stories like this sometimes. I don't doubt that you had pleasant interactions with the server and manager and that you tipped. But as a former service industry employee, almost every time a customer got a manager involved to deal with a complaint about a store policy, even if the interaction was polite…

I'll add that it's much more subtle to glance at your watch when you're in a meeting or talking to someone than it is to whip your phone out and check it. If you're in a professional/corporate setting, this can be the difference between moving up the ranks and being thought of as a d-bag.

"Can" and "should" are different. We CAN wear whatever we want. Whether we SHOULD depends on whether we give a shit about what other people think about us, which most of us as adults do.

While my phone is my clock these days, you can't always bust it out in the middle of a meeting or a social setting where pulling your phone out would be seen as rude. I wear a watch a lot now so I can still get the time without pissing anyone off or making them think I have better things to do by checking my phone.

Wearing a watch is more of a distinguished/mature act these days, I believe, than strictly functional. We all have cell phones that tell time. It projects a better (to me, at least), less obnoxious image to check your watch in front of company than to pull out your phone to see the time.

oh my god stop talking before I put a cocktail fork through your temple.

The original looks like a 60's concept that never made it past a month.

.... looks like vanilla ice cream in comparison. :) They were probably better cars, but it just feels like it lost its, "I am going to cut you with every part of my being" attitude. Well that and surely a Countach at any sort of speed would lacerate any fleshy being.

Nauseating tripe, I'm supposed to "care" because McDonald's occasionally puts up nice signs? Pandering to the military is the lowest form of pandering there is.
