We are pretty much in total agreement here, except on the focus on women being the victims more often. Maybe it's just my experience, but those youthful mistakes and shallowness you speak of tend to burn women more than men. Typically, the youthful men use and abuse and discard young women more and the women get hurt…

I have to think you made up the "booya" thing. Seriously WTF.

I know the whole "being nice shouldn't entitle you to sex" argument and I agree. Nobody is ever entitled to anything from another person. However, it would benefit everyone but those charismatic sociopaths if we as a society teach the valuing of things like intellect, personality, values, and most especially respect…

At least you learned from your mistake. That's more than some can say.

You're not the one with the fatal flaw that doomed your relationship, he is. The fact that he's too shallow, insecure and immature to overlook a simple physical attribute that clearly didn't impede him from liking you otherwise is the problem. None of us are perfect. And if he couldn't grow the fuck up and get over…

You are a shining example to all women. Bless you and bravo! I only wish wisdom such as yours was vastly more commonplace, as many many people both male and female would be a lot happier for it.

Thank you! I think you have completely nailed it. We as humans, for the most part at least, have an inborn basic need for love, sex, intimacy, companionship, and affection. We're wired to need it, and it hurts to be deprived of it. No, we don't have the right to demand it from any particular person, but we all have…

"But our weight? That's (mostly) a choice"

Yeah but if I'm not mistaken I think those mods were meant to be arousing or amusing. I would be going for the gross-out, just sick disturbing stuff that reflects the demons trying to mess with your mind. Because I think Hell would be worse than just a bunch of rocks and fire, it makes sense for the demons to make it…

I've long thought of finding that mod and using it as a base for a truly perverted hellscape where it's just sick and disturbing because, well, demons. Psychological warfare.

1942 was actually 72 years ago, not 11. :P

Yep, it is. Way to get ahead of the issue there. Consenting adults should have the right to the sexual and romantic relationships of their choosing.

It's not a real Japanese tanuki without a ginormous ballsack.

The only difference is the looks. Functionally, it's identical to any .30-06 hunting rifle designed for large game such as deer. Depending on the size of the boar there this would be an ideal caliber for it.

Please point out in the article where it says that?

If there was a detailed planning session he sat in on and a history of prior crimes from that bunch, then I can see where you're coming from.

But you have no evidence that he knew they were serious or that he didn't disbelieve them. You accept his word that he heard them say it, but not his word that he failed to believe what they said. You claim to know his thoughts and motivations, but you cannot.

You're taking half his testimony but not the other half. You're choosing to believe the "Yeah they said that" but not the "but I didn't think they were serious" part. You, and the prosecution, are cherry picking. There is no proof he actually knew anything.

Clearly that looks a lot more like a buttplug than it does a christmas tree.
