Did you check on them during the meal? Or did you drop down the food, walk away, and come back at the end to try to sell them dessert? On the rare occasion that something is genuinely wrong with the meal, I despise having to sit there with a plate of food while my companions eat (the last time it happened, I got up

So we do this with the cafeteria tables at the high school I work at BUT there are floor mops and table mops (reusable swiffers, really). As soon as a table mop touches the floor, like if someone trips or something, the pad goes straight into the wash bin.

Common sense is not all that common, and if googling always led to sensible answers, we wouldn’t have anti-vaxxers.

It also fucked up the LSH and removed Supergirl from continuity. I agree that every change after Crisis did not need to be undone, but Crisis needed to be.

Hal went from being a generic Mary Sue-ish character to a villain to someone who was redeemed as the Sepctre, and they could have left him like that forever. They had a good character with a lot of years as the only Green Lantern, and Kyle eventually resurrected the Guardians and the Corps so they could go back to

The infuriating thing about bringing Barry back is that they did a Mark Waid story, “The Return of Barry Allen,” that showed exactly how much Wally had grown and why it would be a huge step backwards if Barry returned. But that came out in the 90s, slightly past when Geoff Johns fell in love with Bronze Age heroes

I agree more with you on Barry than Hal. My big problem with Hal was the complete lack of respect for the character when he was turned and went on a murderous rampage and the loss of the GL corp. If he had gone out as a hero, that would have been cool. Rayner never seemed more or less interesting than Hal to me.

They had such a great thing going where the torch had been passed to a third generation of heroes, and they shit all over that to bring back the most boring versions from the 80s. Reading reprints of the Hal Jordan comics I never understood what made him so special; Kyle was the last Lantern and had this huge burden

That was one among many of the reasons I didn’t like GL Rebirth. Most stem from the re-introductuon of Hal as a fearless warrior/badass that in my years of reading GL comics he never was.

I’m certain that every time we have a story like this, it’s yet another reason a woman will decide not to report being sexually assaulted, especially by someone she knows...a circumstance which constitutes the majority of sexual assaults.

Aka, “I’m too smart to commit a crime in this stupid a fashion.”

Yes. If, every time you see an accusation of sexual assault going through “the proper channels,” the victim is tormented, put on trial, blamed for their own assault, and then punished, possibly for the rest of their lives, what sort of lunatic would you have to be to step forward should you, yourself, be assaulted? And

Yes to everything you said, but there should be a significant fine no matter what. He should be arrested & charged with simple assault. I get that Lowery wasn’t truly threatened, but it needs to be firmly established that this is legally unacceptable behavior. A drunken Raptors fan in Toronto verbally threatened

Couldn’t agree more. Part of the point of punishments is to set a standard. I think the punishment was minimized because of his wealth and position with the team. I think a random person doing the same thing would be banned for life, perhaps prosecuted.

No.  Wrong.  He’s not just some random rich asshole, he’s a part owner.  

Love the show and have been watching from the beginning.

On one hand, Stevens is such a dipshit for this. On the other, I'm amazed he bypassed his standard move of asking to speak to the manager. 

“The purpose of the First Amendment is supposedly getting at the truth,

You wouldn’t know it from how many times, places, and circumstances onions (and vast, seemingly nonsensical portions of them) are a mandatory, unremovable option in food. Like sandwich shops that keep a big pile of steak on the grill for steak sandwiches... and don’t keep one with onions and one without, just one with

Y’know I spent half my life thinking I hated onions because these stupid fucking Americans only ever use the most useless of all onions, the white onion, and they never fucking cook the damn thing, which is disgusting.It is perhaps more disgusting when merely warm, as its poison penetrates deeper into your tastebuds
