Traffic “calming” measures are incredibly crude ham-fisted measures that cause annoyance, damage to vehicles, over complication*, and traffic congestion.

You morons always blame guns after shootings, no one is blaming the car?

Oh how soon you forget how women fighters in Battlefield 1 ruined the game’s realism.

OMFuckingG. Those daily/nightly phone calls. Years ago before everyone had cell phones I had a BF who insisted on a nightly phone call because we were BF/GF. Some nights I’d come home from work or school, tired to the bones and wanting to just collapse in bed or vegetate in front of the TV. But first that fucking,…

Agreed 100%.

Or maybe you take all the damn pills like your doctor said, instead of stopping them when you “feel better” and saving the remainder in case you “need them again some time.” That practice has led to drug-resistant super-gonorrhea.

Dude, you need to have some self-respect. You should only pursue someone when you think there’s a very good likelihood of them wanting to pursue you as well. I mean, even from a position of pure self-interest, life is too short to waste time on a bad bet.

Eject any thoughts of her rejection hurting your self-worth.…

The “shooter was bullied” narrative comes straight from Columbine, where it’s been totally debunked.

On the other hand, you used to be able to literally buy submachine guns from a catalog and have them mailed directly to your door, no background check needed, and nobody was mowing down schools in the 40 or so years that was a thing, so maybe the accessibility of guns isn’t the only issue we should be looking at.

Canada has safety inspections that take a lot of cars like this off the road. Come to Michigan if you want to see the real rolling rust buckets.

Last time I was on OK Cupid there was a local profile for a physically beautiful woman but the text boiled down to “ You need to have a career with room for advancement, not just a job and also have a well-used passport. Also [insert list of about 15 hard nos including video games, most TV and sleeping in]. Ugh. It’s…

It doesn’t sound real.

“I am very socially progressive and I won’t even try to get along with conservatives” is probably a good way to get across that you’re not going to be nice to anyone’s racist uncle or whatever. You can, uh, leave out the part where you expect people to cut family members out of their lives, because that makes it sound…

I have double my salary in student loan debt, does that count?

Let’s consider Mary: who begins working at 25 years old, earns $60,000/year to start [and] gets a 2% raise every year.

That “#BRRRT” is presumably the hashtag version of the sound made by an A-10 Warthog strafing Taliban militants.

Counter-point: Under Siege.

He would lock everyone in the store and not allow anyone to leave until the store was 100% cleaned up. We already had to get ‘signed off’ in our areas before we could leave but now we were being held captive.

Sounds like every retail job, ever. Not that that makes it right, but you could replace Home Depot with Target and it would be exactly the same.

I’ll try to say this succinctly and elegantly:
