No, she’d be suggesting that we should send Emiya Shirou:

No, the whole point of an go is that it’s all bravado and no substance. He’ll add only a negligible amount of mass to the singularity.

I dunno, that trite dichotomy makes me uneasy as well. I’m not exactly offended myself so much as disgruntled at the laziness of the conceit, although the whole formulation is just a half-step away from being flat-out insulting to more or less everyone.

You’re most welcome. Your glowing feedback will ensure me a hefty raise.

Because conformity is the first requirement of a job in corporate America.

That’s almost exactly the woman’s point. Her original attire was professional. The only element that we wouldn’t consider “professional” by traditional (Read: mid-to-late 20th century standards) would be the head scarf, which isn’t merely a cultural fashion: her faith requires that she does so. Given the nature of her…

I can confirm that Mr. Faber did indeed read your comment, and that you are way off-point.

That said, the company may find themselves in a bit of trouble with the “cultural” card being played for their flagrant violation of labor laws. Either way, the woman is still a childish idiot is still exhibiting more class than someone who believes that throwing around schoolyard insults is the epitome of mature,…

I celebrate Christmas. I’ve never been especially disappointed by businesses failing to cater to my Christmassy celebrations.

In fact, I wish they’d stop catering so much. The holly and mistletoe goes up on Thanksgiving morning these days, if it’s not already in stock as soon as Trick-or-Treaters begin their annual…

And it would have been just as illegal to discipline her for doing so. There’s a huge difference between not celebrating Christmas and telling a Muslim woman that she can’t wear a headscarf.

Oh no, being “professional” means answering “Yes, sir! Of course I will, Sir!” to every inane request your overbearing boss makes of you.

It’s the same strange phenomenon that makes it so, somehow, being “an adult” in the United States means doing as you’re told, whereas thinking, acting, and standing up for yourself…

I don’t even understand why that option exists.

Indeed! They need to start respecting those men as well!

I disagree. Turning a child into a soldier by definition is an act of violence and control, and it makes sense that they would sterilize the child so that there would be no risk of them developing attachments outside of their clique. They would probably do the same to male assassins—and believe me, if you or I had…

And when that’s disseminated over the internet before anyone can make a decision about it, it can shape people’s opinions of the matter. When I finally watched Age of Ultron, I was pleasantly surprised at how that scene played out.

The codpiece is a classic feature of men’s attire. I approve of this.

Dude, we say “totes” now. “Double plus” is sooo 1984.

I honestly cannot decide if I want to see this movie or not. It definitely sounds as if it is better than the previous two and probably represents a genuine attempt to inject more of the spirit of an actual Star Trek entry. However, I have absolutely no idea if they manage to do so well enough to warrant spending time…

Ironically, the biggest issue I have with the Kelvin timeline movies is that they’re too much like Star Trek: Insurrection and Star Trek: Nemesis. They made the Star Trek is Die Hard in Space schtick work once, instantly deplete the well and yet kept on drilling down on that same failed concept.

I will defend Star Trek…

Nonetheless, I do wish they’d actually let it earn its wings before trashing it. Then again, they’ve not had much in the way of respect for the series or their audience the whole time, so who expects them to respect the Enterprise?
