No, I wasn't. I was trying to explain why a bunch of college students with undeveloped brains who demonstrated stupid-college-student-judgement shouldn't be put on blast for the entire depraved internet to go after.

Didn't say it was an excuse.

Neat gun.

It's like I didn't even say anything after "you don't need to be a kid".

You don't need to be a kid to make an immature, ill-thought-out decision. Making fun of someone is childish, regardless of the age of the "grown adult" college students in question.

I thought she was innocent from what I'd read of the case. Most of the people I've spoken to about it seem to agree that she was railroaded by an incomprehensible Italian justice system.

If only we could all be appropriately and publicly shamed for our childish mistakes by the paradigm of moderation that is the internet.

Terrific.

Swing and a miss.

Shouldn't steps 1-All of them just be: Be really attractive?

...she's thirty?

Brienne is awesome.

I'd like to know how to stay logged in whenever I click around using this new Kinja platform. Click over to Jalopnik or Deadspin? Have to log in again. Click on another Kotaku story? Have to log in again. Click "back" to go back to the previous Kotaku page, where I was logged in? Have to log in again.

I'm not one for the melodramatic, but this new format absolutely will push some people away, at least partially. I know when Jalopnik moved to this layout, my number of visits dropped dramatically because I just plain don't like anything about the new format, and there are plenty of other places I can go with better…

Yes, second from the new series, 10th overall.

Agree with everything you said.

Magnificent.

That's spot on, methinks. I happened to read it right in that window during high school and liked it. Went back to it later and mega-fucking-loathed it. Maybe that's the point, I dunno. Either way, fuck Holden.

Nicely played.

I don't use a case either and I've never had to open up my iPhone (4 or 5) to fix anything. That said, you're damn right about the black version not holding that black color for long. Breathe on the fucking metal too hard and it'll scrape.
