Isn’t telling someone that they shouldn’t be playing a particular game (without the implied racial qualifiers) like the most basic of basic trash talk?

That Boston (my nearest location) is sold out is both good because there’s interest in the show, and a huge bummer cause I would’ve really liked to go.

You’re absolutely not wrong, there ARE people it won’t help, and it IS tiresome when people sell exercise as a cure-all for depression.

I can only assume you finally took the plastic wrap off the popcorn bag before putting it in the microwave after much trial and error.

Partially related to both, I have the same infamous coffee cup of Ajit Pai, the Reese’s one. I got it about a year ago at a Savers and quickly replaced my old cup with it. Imagine my surprise when it’s making headlines as a source of derision, but I have to give him that it’s really a great cup because it comfortably…

I realize this comment is 7 years late, but they’re all supp0sed to be historical characters from different points in time (with Brocken being from the future, I suppose). “J. Carn” is a real lazy translation of Genghis Kahn, and “Janne” is Jean d’Arc. The sequel added “Ryofu”, better known as Lu Bu of 3 Kingdoms…

Moolah being a piece of shit has been an open secret among wrestling fans since before 9/11, guy.

Yeah, in no way is this a dad joke. I fell for a clickbait headline, and will go out of my way to not do so again. Disappointing.

These are cute and all, but am I cynical for thinking ignoring consent has less to do with “delightful misunderstanding” that can be cleared up with Veggietales-looking dongs (unless these are specifically targeting middleschoolers) and more to do with just not giving a shit that the other partner doesn’t care to be a…

but there is a stigma attached to it that she believes is partially the fault of cishet women as well.

Where would you rank “Mr. Charlie” among racial slurs towards white people?

Yooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuth!

Godspeed You! Black Emperor was named after a Japanese biker gang documentary, though (Goddo supiido yuu! Burakku emparaa ). The name is less random than a lot of other indie rock bands... though still certainly quite out there.

Not just a target, but someone else to blame, besides guns, for a classroom of dead kids. The system, where it’s easier to buy a military grade weapon than infant formula, isn’t at fault, it’s Mr. Lipschutz’s fault for not returning fire efficiently.

They are treating the symptoms rather than the actual disease.

After he comes back from returning some video tapes.

Not to mention that in spite of his recent push, Cyborg was front and center of the New Teen Titans, one of DC’s biggest and most influential books of the 80's. And that’s not even touching upon when Image was the #2 comic book company in the world in the 90's and their main character being a black man in Spawn.

This is precisely it. The system works on the promise that if you run fast enough in the hamster wheel for long enough, you’ll end up rich, with a perfect wife, perfect children and a perfect house (so make sure to vote for what’ll benefit you once you inevitably reach that, by the way). So when that doesn’t happen,…

I’d find it weird if a theology professor was afraid to say “God” because he thought it was blasphemous while teaching a class about Christianity. I know it’s not a perfect analogy, but it’s the only thing I can think of that would be at all similar.

That does indeed sound like an interesting read. I’ll check it out, thank you.
