Not sure what that has to do with my point. Regardless of whether the ethical arguments are 100% bulletproof or a house of cards, it still takes absolutely ZERO effort to understand that idea that someone who doesn’t want to eat animals may still like/miss the taste/texture of meat, a staple of our society’s foods,…

I’ve never known anyone to suggest garden burgers taste ANYTHING like meat.

Which is why I’m not a vegetarian anymore. But I also *want* to do all kinds of things that I still know aren’t a good idea or go against my morals or ethics. So I don’t do them. *Wanting* to do something, such as WANTING to enjoy the taste and texture of meat, while still preferring not to eat ACTUAL meat is hardly a…

I feel as though you meant to reply to someone else. That had nothing to do with my comment.

I’m sorry I used the word “bother,” although I’ve got to say, a lot of meat eaters seem genuinely BOTHERED by this and spend a lot of time making jokes about it while being obtuse about the obvious reasons it occurs. They sound like the people who don’t understand why lesbians use dildos and strap-ons.

By that logic, why bother to cook at all? So many ingredients are delicious exactly as they are. Why do we insist on combining them and preparing them in unusual ways to turn them into something else?

And I have ALWAYS wondered why this bothers meat-eaters so much and why they’re so incapable of understanding this incredibly simple principle. Vegans/vegetarians have no problem with the taste and texture of meat, they have a problem with the ETHICS of eating it. Why is it remotely strange why they’d want to recreate…

Curious: Why call out the gender of the driver, specifically? Everything else you wrote is spot-on, and relevant to a lot of people who should never have passed. Just curious why her gender was important when it was implied by your later use of the word “her.”

The most regrettable game purchase I ever made was also a Tetris. Tetris Worlds for Game Boy Advance by THQ was garbage. Unnecessary effects, new control standards that ruined the challenge of the game, and nothing resembling a true unlimited mode. Once I got past a certain increase in speed it stopped bothering to…

I was going to say that at first glance it looks exactly like the vehicle drove over, and got caught up in, a wire. We’ve all seen enough wire work in films to recognize this by now.

The boobs, obviously. You seem not to grasp how reactionary and limiting HR policies are in offices. It is in no way, shape, or form unusual for a workplace to not be particularly concerned with their employees doing leisurely web browsing as long as their work gets done, but to blow completely out of proportion over…

You don’t actually work in an office, do you?

Yes. Absolutely. I don’t understand how this is so hard to understand. Many, many workplaces have no problem with some casual web browsing as time allows. Virtually every single workplace has problems with nudity. Not remotely unusual. Stupid, I agree, but a very real problem.

Yeah, I was also reading this at work, in a cubicle. I hate that NSFW warnings have to be a thing, but... they actually do.

I loved all the side-by-side shots where their bikes were clearly mounted on a platform and didn’t so much as wiggle as they smacked each other around.

I’m sorry, I was too distracted by the horrific acting to notice the CG.

The fragility of SATA connection is very well known. They are weak as hell. When I looked for solutions after the first one I found countless reports in forums of the same thing, and descriptions of just why SATA was so much worse from a physical reliability structure as compared to PATA. Makes sense, too. The entire…

The only advantage the SATA connector has is that you won’t be connecting it and disconnecting it frequently. Outside of that it’s dramatically weaker. I’ve broken two while they were INSIDE a desktop computer with minimal movement, while I’ve never broken a single micro-USB connector. While I agree the micro-USB…

I’m aware this isn’t exceptionally fast, but anything I should be aware of in using this with an Xbox One? Just finally picked one up (this has been my slowest generation to adopt in history), and my hard drive is already over half full after a week.

Exceptionally unlikely.
