This is crazy.

100% on-board with you on this one. And so many of these “slurs” date back to technical words that weren’t used as insults until later.

And before one of you fucking idiots sits down to type out that “well we can still improve how we speak”, no. You’re not improving it. You’re tying down meaning that has changed.

The only people who actually care about this are folks who want attention or are unable to process that their disability doesn’t define them, parent’s of kids with actual disabilities, or people who just want to be high and mighty. What actually matters is when you ignore them, intentionally treat them as incapable…

Written like an extroverted city dweller.

Counterargument: No.

I feel like this article misses the fact that this is a bad idea anywhere there is water that will frequently be on the tile.  As the first step is definitely determining if its a good idea or not to even try this.

yeah, unless you have pristine tile, this seems like there would be a lot of potential issues (and if you had pristine tile, why paint it?)

Pretty sure this is the worst idea ever. 

Yeah and give us back our Windows ME too so we can never get drivers to install correctly.  

While I do respect the idea of second chances, if my wife cheats on me, it’s game over. 

It seems to me that a lot of people who love to tell you about print being superior don’t read all that much. I have a couple thousand e-books and they take up so little bandwidth that I have more than one back-up (locally and cloud-based.) Text on a Kindle or iPad is just easier for me. The mechanics of a book and my…

And, frankly, “portability” is a blade with two very sharp edges. If I kept my entire library on one device, then what heppens when (not ‘if’) the device wears out, let alone gets lost, damaged or actively stolen?

If I wish you a happy birthday via text, simply reacting to the message with a heart doesn’t tell me you appreciate the gesture.

It’s funny the author wrote this article without ever mentioning the tapback is an iPhone feature. Just another iPhone user oblivious to the fact that there are other kinds of phones out there.

I find it amusing that you didn’t even address the biggest problem with this. You are obviously an iPhone user. And iPhone users are completely ignorant to how these ‘tapbacks’ are received by Android users. Sam liked “blah blah blah super long annoying message sent right back to me, etc. etc.” And of course, iPhone…

For instance, if you hated abortion and that’s the biggest thing in your world, and Alabama banned it, you could move there. If you loved abortion and California said it’s ok, you can move there.

For instance, if you hated abortion and that’s the biggest thing in your world, and Alabama banned it, you could move there. If you loved abortion and California said it’s ok, you can move there. Apply that logic to whatever your big thing is. The point is, when the Feds make a rule for everyone, freedom is restricted…

It’s the culture, the mental health and the violent criminals.

Ho. Ly. Crap. Yes.
