Jesus. For the sake of your loved ones, please be less boring.

Yes, we should definitely base all entertainment salaries on your abysmal taste. Well-argued.

So because men are willing to ask for more money, they should receive it? Because that’s the current status.

“There’s no reason to vote because America doesn’t have free and fair elections.”

It’s a clear parody of HAIM - more than just a “little nod.”

It must be a sad, suspicious life to never take anyone’s words at face value and reject all apologies out of hand just because sometimes they turn out to be insincere. I can’t imagine the paranoid, jaded place you must live in. My condolences.

Oof, nope. Try again darlin.

“I read the article” - no, you didn’t. I call BS on that, since reading the article would demonstrate that he explicitly DID know this would happen. Try again, honey bear.

So wait... you don’t think the video was a complex and brilliant commentary on America’s relationship with black culture? That’s a pretty weird take.

“At a certain point when no one can figure out what you’re trying to say, it means that the art has failed at it’s intended purpose, ya know?”

I don’t see anyone agreeing with you, but keep at it, man - clearly this is a worthy hill to die on.

Uh... it reads to me exactly as the author intended: that poker has no physical component, and so is easier to “go pro” in than a physical sport. Don’t assume that your odd reading of something is how other people also read it.

They’re asking the creators to correct an absurd stereotype of their own construction - and this request is ALSO the “free speech” you seem so concerned about protecting. So why…

If you don’t believe the judge’s own statement on the matter... how do you know that any of this is actually happening? How do you know this judge even exists? Or that ANYTHING really exists?

The insidious anti-wood agenda grows more dangerous every day.

You resurrected a thread from SEVEN YEARS AGO, and I’m the one who should get a life? WOW. Learn how the Internet works, dawg.

Jaywalking is ALSO a crime - should we shoot people in the street for that? You’re a fucking psychopath, just FYI.

Oof. You’re embarrassing yourself, honey.

I don’t think we have enough statistics yet to say “the tech has yet to be proven.” The question is how many people are injured/killed per 100,000 hours of vehicle operation (or some similar statistic), which you should compare to the same statistic for human-operated vehicles. Yes, this is tragic, but it’s possible…
