I always thought her work was boring... and I don't know if it's the trained photographer in me, but I hate how fake her scenes look. I feel like my parents would be totally into her work, but maybe to a younger generation we just see the CGI very obviously. :/

The racism in Slapsgiving3 was soooo random (and terrible). I'm glad they kept that side of their "humour" under wraps for nine seasons. :(

The same writers who thought: "Yo guys, lets make an entire season based on a 3 day wedding time period."

:/

I mean Southern Europe kinda really does struggle with race though doesn't it? I'm thinking Italy... Greece, Switzerland, France.

I don't think it's fair to making sweeping statements about Europe, because every region is different and has a different awareness of racism... in Germany for example I got lectured about hyphenated identities (you can't say someone is Chinese-German, they're just German and anything else is an insult), but on the…

Even for this article I'm annoyed whole "awwww look at these wacky foreigners, are they drunk?" vibe that it all takes on.

Ehhh, yeah, not to beat a dead horse but it's a condescending approach at best, and at worst, well frankly a bit xenophobic- it makes the foreign subjects look unintelligent, inarticulate, and…

This is why they should get real translation. It seems pretty counter to Jezebel to run bad information from a foreign source... just disrespectful.

Gawker used Google Translate on a Ukraine story a few weeks back... it would not be the first time is what I'm saying. :/

It wouldn't be the first time Gawker Media literally ran something through Google Translate and then posted that. They did it a few weeks back on a Ukraine story and commentators had to correct. It seems massively dishonest to me... it shows a lack of research and its not a remotely accurate representation for the…

Norway isn't the only country like this... in Canada the very rare "life imprisonment" means that someone is imprisoned for up to 25 years and then becomes eligible for parole. Obviously such parole can be denied indefinitely with just cause. The especially threatening criminals get a "dangerous offender status" which…

You also wonder who uses this? Where do all these strange creepers live? Maybe they're just teenagers who form the majority of the user-base.

On a very pedestrian level non-scientist level, it sounds like this would be very hard to control for- separating development from socialization, given the latter influences the former.

It's only illegal if you get caught (because the wolf ate someone).

She spent 83K on the monkey-incident legal fees. I hope she pays her kids ways through university. :/

The people of Toronto, ney, Canada agree with you and desperately want everyone to stop paying attention until the next election throws him out. :(

I totally get that- but I think there are better ways to teach languages (like immersion programs for instance), and I think that language learning is the single best way to get people to think differently about other cultures and other people, and that's the value of it in addition to gaining a helpful ability.

Mandatory second-language training.

The Nazi joke is the first thing that alot of people jump too when Germany is brought up... as an ex-pat in Germany it kinda invokes second hand embarrassment.

Haha- yes, this is true. But it was a different time, when armies were much less professional, and even so the Spanish Civil War was disillusioning for many. "You will die like a dog for no good reason," said Hemingway.

Ouch... :(
