I grew up in a blue collar, on the suburbs like Lanford place, watching the original in the 80s. Dad a big guy like Goodman, Mom taking part time jobs like

An employer paying a female worker less than a male counterpart because they can largely get away with it and it happens to work out better for the bottom line, isn’t any less misogynistic. Sorry to break it to you. These are actual people making production decisions not capitalist drones who don’t know any better.

Abuse is never okay. Physical or emotional. The relationship reads like they both were in a dysfunctional situation.

A.) I’m 36.

B.) I am a professor of Rhetorical Composition and Literature—and coming from a professional in the field, prescriptivism in casual communication is not a good look, particularly in light of how language actually functions.

C.) It’s a colloquialism. If that’s all it takes to get your boxers in a bunch (and

You started an affair with a 17-year old when you were 24? 

Tell men that a single room at a single event is off limits to them for a couple of hours and it’s a war crime to be tried at the Hague. Implement and nourish a work culture openly hostile for over a decade and “ThaT’S JuSt VieDEo GamES BRo”


Until HR departments actually start caring about their “human resources” instead of protecting the Company, none of this shit will matter.

There are tons of lost books, movies, and other forms of art that disappeared solely because it was illegal to make copies and the people responsible for them didn’t care and allowed them to be destroyed. It’s a travesty that we continue the trend, and have added video games to the garbage pile.

The purpose of the visit was for her to get to know her first grandchild at age 5 months. We were out at lunch, and Baby wanted to eat as well. I excused myself and rushed to the Ladies

I think Conway is more like Ghidorah, which had three heads. Conway always seems to be saying three thing at once, all of it in an unintellible screech.

Plagiarism isn’t always about the exact words used, rather, the sentence structure and order is often a more damning indication that the IGN writer simply read

Replying to take you out of the grays so everybody can have a good chuckle at your comment.

Yikes...if this pisses you off, how pissed are you that Ray Lewis and Marvin Harrison are next to Lombardi and Walter Peyton?

No one wants to talk to you, and smearing yourself in shit and screaming your lungs out isn’t going to change that. 

“I truly hope you realize how important setting goals are for young women, teaching them we have so much more to offer than just our bodies,” Moretz wrote.”

Really? What information would make this ok?

I’m going to let the team that didn't do the Tomahawk Chop be the first to complain about a lack of decorum. 

I mean third parties could show they are serious by working in local communities on school boards and city councils where they could actually do some good and build a base.

Also, post Thor: Ragnarok, I’m half-inclined to move Hemsworth up to number 1 just due to his sheer sense of fun.
