Too late, already traded him.

My favorite of those twitter non-observations : “Still a long way down to ZERO”

This is indeed some strange shit, when Stern is taking the unequivocal moral high ground.

Yeah, just listen further in the interview to be even more thoroughly disgusted. Tarantino’s defense, when asked why he sides with Polanski’s version of events instead of the court testimony of the victim, and why it is not rape, though it is against the law:

The original use of that term and technique of “necklacing” is absolutely horrific, as a form of torture.

For full irony, you should sign “I’m Sticking with You” by Velvet Underground. Also sounds like a nursery rhyme, but I always thought it was about persistent drug habits...

How about “individual”, in the sense that you have not chosen to divide your DNA...

Yeah, the whole line about “humans being hardwired to procreate” is interesting, as I think it is generally true. There usually is both a biological and social pressure to have kids, but I have simply not felt the first, and I reject the second. Most of my friends now have kids and I still enjoy spending time with…

Pretty much this is the marketing team : “We want to tap into the self-centered nihilism of the current generation. Lets tell them that life is meaningless, so the best they can do is drink Diet Coke - if they want to, that is”

Yeah, next year they are totally going to try to capitalize on the death and memory of Ursula K. Le Guin to show what revolutionary spirit RAM trucks bring to the men of America :

Yeah, how about you take your own advice... Here are some more words from that speech, “The Drum Major”. You tell me Rev. King would be ok with the use of his sermon in a commercial context? :

I feel like the photo comment is a Mitch Hedberg line or something.

Yeah, him saying it is a “straight road” coupled with the directive to hit at least 40MPH definitely makes him partially liable here. No way was that a safe curve to navigate at that speed, and it is unreasonable to expect non-stunt actors (who might be used to a life of being driven around after a few decades in the…

It is as if the entire city is a terrible HOA...

Absolutely agree - People have a problem because they project their meaning of how a word like “artisinal” has been used in contemporary marketing, and ignore or reject the application of technical terms that happen to be the same.

That is really the name that is used in the mining industry to refer to smaller mining operations that are not on a highly-mechanized scale. Basically (in this particular context) it means backbreaking physical work that is being done by humans instead of machines.
