Because it is, in fact, worse. It is extremely harassing to the people it is done to, an aspect that current false report laws don't usually cover. Also, there is a much higher value in time and resources involved when so-called SWATting is successful. Rapid reponse teams are not cheap, and the reply for misusing them…

It is something that seems trivial, but in reality is simply more trouble than it is worth to a small business. An order of food, employee time, delivery costs all sunk with no payment isn't a small thing to a business, especially restaurants which is already an extremely cutthroat industry. It sucks for Swifty, but…

I caught that too! I hope it was a reference, like this is a world more like Mega City 2 than our LA.

I guess since they know it's their last season, they've no reason to hold back. What can they do, cancel them?

Actually, probably not. It isn't like there is an actual button on the president's desk that launches the nukes. :P

I came here to say this about the 'stay down'. The hostages were taking the opportunity to scurry away, which I can understand. But it did put them right in the middle of a firefight. I have no problems at all with the takedown in this case. I'm not one to go overboard on the 'infiltrate and kill the bad guys' thing,…

I was going to say, I was born in '76 and am a huge EJ fan. Also, from a similar period, Fleetwood Mac. I mention this because my daughter's name is Rhiannon, which most people from my era assume is because of Fleetwood Mac; it isn't, it is more for the Welsh figure, though really just because we like the name. ;) But…

Come on people! If you're going to promote something, tell us who they are and what they're from! I recognize that the second one is Agatha from Girl Genius, but who is the person in the first picture and what is she from?

I love the way you dismiss anyone attractive and female as too dumb to .really. be a hacker.

I will disagree with the demotion thing. The impression I get is that this team is his call. He wants to be exactly where he is (Or at least thinks he does). The other SHIELD high-up mentioned he was recovering well, also implying that he isn't considered fully recovered yet. My impression is that this is his baby,…

Card doesn't just hold terrible views. Mind you, that's enough for some, like Tom Cruise. But he has been very vocally and monetarily active in anti-equality legislation pushes, including Prop 8 in California, and is on record with extrem exterminationist views towards LGBT people. Giving him money, directly or…

Actually, this looks more comfortable than the actual brick bus stop I had to trudge through the snow to as a kid. I'm going to bed that on rainy days or cold days (Well, as cold as they get there. Pennsylvania it is not!) the kids are quite happy to have a secure wind-break and shelter to be inside. But hey, if we…

Honesty?

OK, a few days late, but people can't even not kill each other in 2D driving, and you want to give them 3D?! Flying cars could lead to extinction.

You have to give HK-74 credit for coining the term 'meatbags' to refer to all organics. And that is just the start of his bastardry!

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos

But they all fit a fairly unique archetype, and we already have a redeemed racist redneck. Plus, Merle had done horrible things to the group, it wasn't just a personality problem. Merle could never be fully redeemed, the most he could hope for was a good death, and he got that in spades.

No, Michonne does. I think his taking her was basically so he could get his 'last words' out. Daryl knows too. Given the carnage at the scene, and everything, I don't think anyone could really think he'd gone back, not even counting that he was number 2 on The Govs official hit list.

I remember a lot of interviews with the BSG writers talking about how the fandom would come up with awesome ideas and theories and they would be like 'Oh, y'know, we can't confirm or deny anything or give spoilers' while saying to each other 'We gotta use that!'. This sounds a lot like that to me, so who knows, maybe…

There are implications and hints, and I made the jump (not having read the books), but it hasn't been explicitly said. Whether it ever will be, I dunno. It seems a moot point now, as they are long dead and largely irrelevant. But I felt that, at least in the TV version, they were the 'good guy' equivalent to the bad…
