The fact that the Prius lady wasn't struck by a bolt of lightning is perhaps the greatest evidence that there is no God.

Don't encourage them. The worst thing you can do with people like that is fuel the idea that their opinion is worth consideration.
I feel like they should re-post that "Why DVDs & Blu-Rays should go away" nonsense from a few months back every time they do one of these Streaming Chop Block posts. Just to reinforce why physical media that can't disappear randomly or accidentally erase when a hard drive fails will always be around. I mean just last…
But the "nice people" in the study aren't nice people. They were just people who do what they're told no matter what on top of being assholes. The whole thing is basically the testers saying "Hey I saw a cat lay an egg!" Cats don't lay eggs. They did not see a cat.
Maybe I'm different, but I wouldn't call the people making harmful choices to be "nice". I call them assholes. In this very experiment, the opposites are in no way ornery & disagreeable for refusing to make choices that hurt others. THEY are the nice people. Obeying orders or "playing by the rules" doesn't make…
Either way the guy is a nut job for not being able to let go of the fact that he once was unfairly charged $2.50 for water...which doesn't help his claim of the "thousands of dollars" in business they've lost from him.
I believe he's been open about having psychological issues. Just an occasional glance at his Twitter feed definitely backs that up, he seems very much like a manic depressive.
It's just part of the modern era. There exist a lot of people who have just been raised to consume things that corporations want them to consume, whether they're good for them or not. I'm almost convinced this will culminate in an era where food manufacturers start literally canning shit, selling it to the public &…
Talk about scraping at the bottom of the barrel for one of the type of examples I referred to. Beast Wars, blah.
They haven't though. It's like if I said "It was weird in the 2009 Star Trek movie seeing Spock as Captain" & someone shot back "Well actually in this short run comic series from 1981 he was..." that doesn't negate anything, because the origination & core of the franchise is from the original television series in…
That's an awful lot of expanded universe B.S that even if accepted as "canon" doesn't really even matter because the character was only in the movie because Bay wanted a robot that turned into a hot blonde. If there was any intended logic behind her, they would've used them in the next movie instead of controlling…
Some tech conference/expo deal, last summer maybe. For unknown reasons Samsung brought him to talk about things that aren't explosions, toilet jokes or tits & a few seconds into his presentation he freaked out & walked off stage.
If you get a pizza & 7 slices are completely burned & covered with the wrong toppings, but 1 was theoretically "edible" & the toppings could possibly be picked off would you say an argument that they served you a shitty pizza is invalidated by the existence of that 1 slice?
My favorite Bayformers story is that after he was essentially creatively handcuffed on the first movie which was guided more by Spielberg wanting it to be a movie about a boy & his car and Orci & Kurtzman wanting the Transformers to "make sense" scientifically (how they shaped our tech world) & mechanically…
This is the extent of their involvement:
Nah, fuck that guy.
As much as I'd like to ponder explanations for this I'll be damned if I'm ever going to waste my brain by forcing it to remember the plot of that fucking movie.
I can see the plastic surgery & Egyptian thing but it isn't like she's above this sort of thing & racism is pretty accepted in her fan (customer) demographic so it's hard to say. Her general fan is a white teenage girl who would proudly support her "OMG Katy I love that you fight for racial equality! LOVE U 4EVER" if…
It would've been cool to see her kicking ass. Even if just as some sort of payoff for 90s era fans that noticed her in the background in previous movies. Might've been too much to ask for though since it took 2 2/3 movies for Iceman to actually BE Iceman even after being featured rather prominently.
