On the flip side of this. Acknowledge that often at least the person is trying. Sometimes when you’re down you’re stuck/wallowing. Your chemistry is off and therefore you’re receiving the wrong signals from your pathways. Yes, it’s annoying when you’re down to hear look on the bright side. But it’s also sometimes…

That’s because less than 1% of people ever directly buy from the ads. That’s not really the ads’ purpose, at least not anymore. Now they’re mainly paid for views instead of clicks, because seeing the product over and over sticks it in the consumer’s mind, making them more likely to buy that brand over others. Few…

There are things that parents tell children, which are still pertinent!

How about the old faithful “golden rule”. If someone else did what you are doing now... how would you feel about it?

Or maybe a higher standard:  Try to leave the situation in a better condition than when you found it.

It is, we food scientists know how to hide it. If you see autolyzed yeast extract or Hydrolyzed XXXX protein be aware these contain around 30% msg or glutamic acid by weight. There are tons of common ingredients that have MSG as a naturally occurring material, soy sauce, any fermented protein, dried mushrooms and nori…

So good.

This isn’t going to be popular, but your preamble (and mine) identify what I think is a real problem here. Someone whispered this in Trump’s ear and he fucked it up earlier, but he tried to make the point that Steve Kerr was hesitant to criticize China but has been perfectly comfortable criticizing the US for years.…

I did fully read it and maybe my argument does suck, so my apologies. My main intent was to defend Ellen for defending her own ethos of kindness, because generally speaking I think we need more of that, but now it seems like I’m defending the actions of President Bush - probably my least favorite person of my entire…

Again, I cannot emphasize enough how little I think of GWB.

This is likely the biggest mistake I’ve ever made on Kinja, but god help me, here I go.

China: [fires Rockets]

No, I think it should stay in use. I think we should keep beating that particular dead horse until some player, somewhere, manages to earn a lifetime ban from the NFL for something other than kneeling for the anthem. I want to see the other behavior that makes every team in the NFL say “I don’t care if he’s got talent…

Pretty sure this is just called “being a guy”. 

And like that, the laughs of a million Steelers fans were suddenly silenced.

It’s too bad. Brown seemed to really want to be on the Raiders, but ultimately he just got cold feet.

Here’s my guide:

There’s no reason for anyone to have more than two guitars: an acoustic and an electric.

It is not at all obvious from the Variety article that the issue was the anti-Nazi message in and of itself. Depicting Hitler (even an imaginary one) is always going to be controversial (see, for example, Lavie Tidhar’s “A Man Lies Dreaming”), especially in a comedic context (Lubitsch’s “To Be Or Not To Be” was…

The U.S. team to the Russians, “We have a Simone.”

I wish she’d done that at an And1 gymnastics meet so they could’ve stopped the performance and had the crowd rush the mat with everybody going “OHHHHAAHHHH!!” and the on-floor MC yelling “IT’S OVER! IT’S OVER!! SIT DOWN RUSSELL WESTBROOK!!” and the whole thing dissolving into delirious chaos

It would be really great if, while talking up how great the sculpture is, you actually included the sculptor’s name.
