... but you’d have to use your fake tree for about twenty Christmases before it became a better environmental bet than a real tree. That’s bad news for most fake tree fiends, as the average lifespan for an artificial tree is more like six years, and especially for folks who go trendy with their fake trees—you…

Maybe woman would be more interested if they felt welcomed. Little girls literally said they didn’t think they were allowed to race, so why would they be interested in that?

A large part of the issue is that it’s difficult to tell why there is little interest among women and girls. My guess would be that it’s a cultural thing and as a result could be overcome. Biology likely plays a role but for whatever reason it seems to me something that would be fairly small.

As a PR person, all the coaching in the world doesn’t stop some people from running off at the mouth at precisely the wrong time. I have kicked clients under the table, jabbed them with pens and waved my arms frantically behind the interviewer, and often stuff just keeps spewing right out.

Who will you be saying “we told you so” to, though? The people who voted against net neutrality aren’t going to be surprised by any negative effects for consumers and most citizens supported net neutrality. The naivete here is thinking that there’s a large swath of people who oppose net neutrality who’ll be surprised…

My one nephew has had an obsession with vacuum cleaners for years. My father will buy him used ones at garage sales where they are cheap. The kid lost his mind when Dad got him a Rainbow. He knows so much that the family actually goes to him for advice when they need a new vacuum as he can recommend one based on…

You are trying so so hard that I’m going to reply: stop trolling. This is weak and obvious and frankly kind of sad. You seem angry and I promise that if you go outside and go for a walk you’ll feel a lot better after it than you ever will with this. Even if you manage to piss off or offend somebody on here and get a…

That seems extremely predatory for a late fee, and their website doesn’t reflect that being the case. You should contact their customer service and dispute the charges, unless you kept the game for more than the week you stated. By my loose math, you would have had the game for almost two whole weeks beyond the…

Props for reporting on this - I wouldn’t have heard about it otherwise. It’s good to see that most industries are pulling back the shades on sexual harassment and assault right now.

Even as an adult, if you aren’t into sports, you’re basically ostracized from a huge bulk of society. At least where I am. It kinda sorta makes a guy bitter. From my perspective, sports is a religion to these people. There is literally no difference between how people approach their worship of whatever god and how…

Really, it’s come to this?

I realise that but you’ve made every movement of the foreskin seem like defusing a bomb. Unless you’re 10, you’ve probably pulled your foreskin once or twice, enough not to hurt yourself when taking a shower or putting on a condom. I just get the sense that circumcised guys will come away with the impression that…

This article makes it seem like it’s a curse to have an uncircumcised penis which is the complete opposite. You don’t have to be careful when washing it and you don’t need lube. That’s what the foreskin is for. And infections? Puh-lease. Utter bullshit.

When I was born, my dad wanted me circumcised and named [A] [B]. My mother wanted me to remain fully intact, and named [B] [A]. In the end they compromised: my dad got to name me and my mom got to decide how my royal staff was ornamented. Some of this I knew, but some I didn’t. Thanks for the info!

Actually, I'd argue fewer people probably have CD drives now, thanks to the rise of ultrabooks. The optical drive is declining.

That's a pretty strong and completely false accusation. Look at the date of my post: 1/11. Look at the date of that website: 8/11. They even link to our post as the original at the end. Please read more carefully before making these kinds of assumptions.

I know exactly what you mean! I wake up and I say "I'll snooze for just 10 minutes, then I'll get up."...
