Does this mean that his body is no longer ready?

And they’re still less qualified to talk about this than linguistics majors. Hell, they’re less qualified than linguistics minors.

...the half of Outkast that no one wants to see...

He was a professor of logic who hated, hated, hated split infinitives, to the point that the second split infinitive would drop your paper grade to an automatic F.

I love that you understand Cardi the same way that I do, as a subversive smarty pants. Long live Cardi!

There’s also the fact that people who object to it don’t know English as well as they think they do.

I don’t know why “I am dumb at” would be wrong. It’s obviously vernacular, as opposed to literary English, but it seems as correct as the other constructions.

Is there a better way - a more grammatically correct way - to say “I’m not dumb at this shit.” It’s the being “dumb at” something that my brain snags on and I wonder if it’s just one of those things that might not sound right even though it is.

For me, the show becomes more enjoyable after it has taken the fantasy of self-fulfillment through mecha combat.and demolished it beyond all hope. Shinji will never earn his father’s respect or Asuka’s affection or even a sense of distance from the forces bearing down on him. Worse yet, the desire for him to get into…

I have never yelled at a trailer like this.

The criticism here seems warranted, and I hope Kotaku can figure out whether alt-right recruitment is taking place at a scale that justifies the NPR headline.

The real question: does she remember the plot of Domino? Does anyone? Was that movie even real?

TROLLS: “Feed me.”

Am I alone in saying that S11 was kind of.....not so good?

It just kills me how stupidly obvious this guy is about it. He looks at the camera with a sideways “I’m being subtle” face, slides back in his chair to be more visible, turns back toward his work, then instantly, instantly does his more-conspicuous-than-nothing misdirection scratch before the main event. Oh, and let’s…
