There's more to live music than just the sound, it's the experience. Whether it's the ambience provided by a good chill band, the crazy energy of a punk rock band, or the concerts that are just plain fun - like ska concerts - it's more than just the sound. Though if the band doesn't sound good live, there's no amount…

I saw Ed Sheeran last night and had the same experience. The one nice thing was that since the crowd was all so young and mostly girls, they were really short, so I could see really easily. Of course that same fact (the crowd being mostly teenage girls) was the majority of the awfulness that was the crowd noise. From…

That actually put a big smile on my face. Really fun.

Amy Poehler is great and all, but I really didn't like that commercial all that much. The Samsung one was pretty hilarious, though.

I love calculus. There's not much that is as mentally stimulating as spending a good hour or so doing a few complex derivations. Now, simple math, that's another story...

My thoughts exactly.

Hey, hey! I work in the lab where all of this research is done! I feel neat, now.

The 84" 4K TV is an LED-backlit LCD, not an OLED TV, as per their PR. You may have known that, but your wording makes it sound like the 84" is an OLED TV.

Maybe it's Mr Mint or Queen Frostine?

I look at it this way. With good tires that you keep well-maintained, you can drive on any roads. But good roads will make your tires last longer and need less maintenance.

How about the exact same legislation that they passed in Australia, which DIDN'T ban all guns, which was what you asserted was the only way to stop shooting sprees?

First off, I made absolutely zero mention of any sort of gun regulation. I was responding to an idiotic comment that implied the assertion that because no one he knows who owns guns thinks of going on a rampage, that no one ever will. Which is an argument from anecdotal evidence, and a logical fallacy.

Serial monogamy - being faithful to one person for some span of time, then moving on to another later - is actually how we are wired. Both men and women have hormones that cause the brain to "bond" to a person for 2-4 years, which is about the minimum length of time it would have taken for a young human to survive…

And your anecdotal evidence based on conclusions you've drawn from things people have said to you is absolutely air-tight proof that people who own guns don't go on shooting sprees. Whew! I'm so glad that we'll never see another shooting spree.

:)

I'm one of a very, very few, I'm aware, but I quite like the Panamera. Especially in matte black. I understand everyone's complaints about it, but in my opinion it's strikingly different, while still holding on to Porsche's iconic styling.

Nice way to cherry pick your data. For one thing, guns actually are not any more likely to protect you than other forms of self defense [1, 2], so the fact that you found one instance where a woman used a gun to protect her family does not mean it's the best way to do it. Firearms are actually used more often to…

I still think this is my favorite Google moment.

I like how no one caught your sarcasm.

Another interesting one is that high cognitive load makes you make more affect-driven decisions (i.e., the ones that feel good). Loud music is not just there for entertainment, it actually lowers your ability to make logical decisions. Good salespeople are also taught to make an emotional connection between the…
