Uh…the original Mac's 1984 price tag was $2,495 ($5,664 in 2015 dollars). Granted, that near $2,500 price tag was expensive as hell, especially given the Commodore 64's $595 budget pricing, but it was nowhere near $10,000. You might be thinking of the ill-fated Apple Lisa.

I think that's actually the post 1999 Warped Tour. The Lawrence Arms were banned for life in 1999 after Brendan Kelly got super pissed about having to pay $7 for a bottle of water and went off on the tour managers on stage about how they were ripping kids off.
I hate the story and the first person stuff (the pixel hunts were awful and having to stand perfectly still to fire missiles seems like a huge step backwards), but Other M has one of my favourite control schemes of all time.
And here's the thing: I mostly agree with you. I can see what Joss was going for in every Widow scene. But when every woman I know was upset by *some* aspect of how she was handled, I can't ignore that, even if they can't all agree on the same thing upsetting them. And I don't buy others' suggestions that its just…
Yeah, uh, claiming everyone who saw something differently than you is being dishonest and then getting called out for it doesn't really prove anything (or at least not what you probably think it does).
Shit, you're right. My bad.
"anyone who is talking about the issue is actually engaging in intentional misreading so as a way to support an unjustified freakout."
Here's the thing, I don't believe it was just that one scene. I saw the movie opening weekend, and though I bristled a little at how close the "I can't have babies" came to the "I'm a monster" line, I realized what they were going for there. I saw a lot of the outrage online, and read a lot of the criticism. Then I…
Part of the problem with "sells at parity with the male characters" is that most of the male characters have had a film of their own and thus entire marketing campaigns directed around them. Even when they do produce the rare Black Widow or Gamora figure, there's no marketing behind it, places like Toys R Us and…
Hawkeye got that money by ripping off the Kingpin, Madame Masque, Hammerhead and a bunch of the other crimelords at the beginning of Fraction's run.
Never call it that.
I always took it that since Worf was raised with Klingon culture until he was about 6 or 7, that when he was living among humans, he continued to try to live up to what he was taught about his heritage. But he was only taught the ideals of the culture as a child, he didn't get to grow up in the culture and see the…
The 21st Century albums as I see 'em:
Bad Religion steam it for free on their website: http://www.badreligion.com/…
Into the Unknown is actually quite good. Give it a listen! Just keep an open mind about it. https://www.youtube.com/wat…
It's definitely way different than anything else they've done, but I feel like the reaction to it immediately after release was more a feeling of betrayal from fans than an actual critique of its merits. It's a solid album (I like it quite a bit), and I'll gladly take it over The New America any day.
When I first heard it, I felt that Recipe For Hate sounded like the band losing steam, and yet it's consistently been one of my most-listened to albums of any band. It really grows on you.
