Do celebrities pay to attend award shows? Do viewers pay to watch? No one actually consuming the content paid him. The organization is probably happy that they got a couple more days of coverage. And that the set wasn’t enough to get them cancelled. Job done. If you mean the people at his latest show, they’re…

Has he stopped doing those ear rending high pitched voices when he talks to himself? His material is good but I can’t stand that delivery. Same with John Mulaney. His accent is so grating to me that I can’t listen to a whole bit. Oddly women with high pitched or nasal voices don’t bother me. I wonder if a male pushing…

Tommy Lee Jones looks at everyone and everything like that, including his own dick when taking a piss. I wouldn't read too much into it. Man's just depressed.

So is this show about putting together the most socially awkward American and foreigners who would like to get citizenship the (probably not) easy way then recording the hijinks? Like the old mail order bride thing but with cameras and without sexual assault? I suppose at least the exploitation is on both sides. I…

Only two, maybe three of these performances were even worth of being considered for an Oscar. Doing a good job in a movie you liked isn’t enough.

Like a guy got old and fat then put on some youth fashion clothes and a new hairstyle to try to pick up some younger women.

Or, and stay with me now, you don’t have any autistic friends or family who told you that but instead believed what some people on the internet said and repeated it without bothering to find out if it was true. And now you’re backpedaling when called out for your laziness. This is the internet so the odds are at least…

You can say you have anything and self diagnosis of other disorders is often a convenient cover for the disease of assholism. And it’s pretty easy to pay the right doctor to agree with you. And even if that is true it’s incumbent on the person concerned to alter their own behavior, not expect others to tolerate…

Yeah it’s wild that the wrong mixture can basically intoxicate you to the point where you can kill yourself underwater. Among other strange effects. One thing that’s always amused me is that mixes for deep water work often include helium so lots of divers, welders and oil rig workers are going around sounding like…

I wonder what they use for fuel in agriculture? Ethanol they make out of leftovers from sugar production? There’s no way they’re quintupling the price of the fuel that goes in tractors and harvesters. People would starve or, if food is price controlled, the farms would be unable to keep operating capital and fail, at…

I heard about this on an NPR podcast a few weeks ago and there was a surprising amount of discussion about how toxic and lethal this gas might be with seemingly no understanding that it makes up the majority of our atmosphere.

With Alphabet and Google they say “the parent company of” because that is the legal relationship between the two. When they need to mention Alphabet at all. Not sure about Facebook/Meta. Facebook may be a product rather than a separate wholly owned subsidiary.

For real. A dragging needs to be laced with profanity and include then kind of insults that can’t be unsaid. Not that Kimmel is the type of comedian who I'd expect that from. Doesn't seem like he has a deep well of anger to draw on. No idea why the author would describe his tweets that way.

Come on now. The lady has been a news presenter on a major UK broadcast network for over two decades. The kid is an elite gamer whose real name we probably shouldn’t know or write down for legal and ethical reasons due to their age. While her comment could be used to highlight unpleasant aspects of her personality…

No, you didn't. You skimmed for things you could use as weapons because you'd already decided you didn't like me or anything I had to say, likely because something in there hurt your feelings. Tell me how I made you sad, what pierced your honor and made you have to valiantly attack me for...what exactly? God and…

Have you considered that being unable to play a game without alt tabbing away to do the other things you mentioned could be a symptom of ADHD or something similar? Anyway just use a phone or tablet when you want to check a wiki or whatever. And ultimate performance is nonsense. I don’t need a Top Fuel dragster to go…

Surely there are parts and measurements of capability for electric motors and batteries that can be used in naming schemes rather than technology that’s not relevant to the vehicle being named. Or names that have nothing to do with the vehicle’s motive power. Let’s ditch “horsepower" while we're at it. It's neither…

Oh yeah, just out of curiosity, did you actually read all of my first post, let alone any of my other many comments on this thread, before you made your first passive aggressive attack on me or this more direct one? Be honest, you didn’t, did you? Not honest with me, I don’t expect you to respond. Honest with yourself…

So you’ve got insults and condescension to bring to the table, along with a heaping helping of useless verbiage that proves nothing. Thanks and I don't mean that sarcastically. I do appreciate it when people let me know what they're capable of and I think I've got your number. Who hurt you so bad?

According to mental health professionals religious beliefs typical of one's culture and upbringing are not delusions or symptoms of mental illness. I'm not one of those professionals so I don't know the exact reasoning behind that. Perhaps it's essentially a pass on a sensitive topic but there may well be important…
