Awesome! At one point in the future I will get me one of those as well. Are you happy with your purchase?

Anyone who passes the tests should be allowed to serve, I think. So this is a good thing. Vasquez in Aliens was a badass. As was Emily Blunt in Edge Of Tomorrow - to name just a few examples from popular culture. As long as the parameters of the tests won’t be changed, I don’t see why anyone would have a serious…

No article about the Zumwalt can be complete without mention of its captain:

James Kirk.

We’ve reached a point where a huge number of (often very smart and liberal!) people automatically revert to shouting “Islamophobe! Bigot” everytime someone criticizes islam with valid points and rational arguments.

If one googles “islamophobia definition” this is what shows up:
“dislike of or prejudice against Islam or…

I didn’t say anything about not believing in certain things. I went out of my way to state that islam is a religion, religions are a choice, and choices can be criticized freely. I don’t understand where you got the impression I don’t believe in antisemitism. But the same thing applies there, by the way. Being from…

Of course homophobia is not a bullshit term. Being gay is not a choice, which is why it’s infinitely more terrible when someone’s sexual orientation is used as a basis for judgment than when someone is judged for their beliefs and convictions. Those, naturally, are a choice.

And when people make a choice, and act and…

I do of course find that in christianity as well. Perhaps I should have made that clear. Backwards ideas like those I mentioned are simply inherent to most forms of organized religion. In case you couldn’t tell, I’m an atheist. Islam is a religion that’s on the rise (particularly in Europe!), so that’s why right now…

The kid was treated unfairly, that much is unquestionably true. Taken downtown, police, etc. That didn’t need to happen that way, and it’s shameful. So on that we can agree.

But you know that islamophobia is a bullshit word, right? Islam is not a race. People from all over the world and of all skin colors are muslim.…

I can only imagine accidents at intersections involving teens driving cars, and head on collisions with large brain matter, teeth, and tongues strewn upon the road.

They are according to Pixar! I agree with Torchinsky, the eyes of a car are in the headlights. I’m getting the impression some people are under the impression that I was using that illustration to prove that the eyes are supposed to be in the windshield, when in fact I was using it to show how weird and horrifying it…

That’s the whole point: None of the windows are eyes!

People are dumb.

It seems you’ve misunderstood my point, I am most definitely arguing that the eyes should be in the headlights. The point of that illustration was to show how creepy it would be if they were in the windshield.

Exactly!

Wait, what? People drive with their left feet hanging out the window?! Never in my entire life have I even considered that as a thing that was possible. You’ve seen people do this?

But how? What about the insides of the car? Are the windows no longer transparent? Is there a brain behind the opaque windows?
The horror!!

I remember feeling so relieved when I finally read your article about this when it first appeared, because I thought I was the only one bothered by it up until that point. Keep fighting the good fight!
Cars’ eyes are in their headlights. Period.

Holy crap that is great!

Thanks for being the voice of reason. Kudos!
