Not pointless at all. MRIs on Buddhist monks and Catholic nuns have pretty definitively demonstrated the benefit of prayer/meditation (with or without an object) to the brain.

I’m pretty much with you except, practically speaking, if you legalize it for recovery only, you’re making it legal for general use. In California, at least, this is what has happened with “medical” marijuana. And given that football players in particular have some kind of injury virtually 100 percent of the time, you…

I’ve been in sales for 20 years and I still fail to understand why salespeople or companies hide from their customers when they have bad news; it only makes the customer angrier. Things happen. That’s life. But if your customer has to contact you regarding a deviation from the expected timeline, you’ve failed. Most of…

That’s good to hear about Hamill. I worried that he got typecast and is poor now due to only being able to get roles in things like Corvette Summer and in Arrow doing an awful Joker impression.

My condolences. My friends mom passed away from cancer two weeks before Christmas last year. Try to take good care of yourself....

I am done paying for my Note 3 next month, so I started looking around at what has come out in the past two years. I was surprised to read that I didn’t need to upgrade to the Note 5 and there isn’t anything else out there better at doing what I ask my phone to do.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re in the greys or not. As the Maxi Dress Debacle demonstrated, they have contempt for their commenters. Or, at least, they don’t care what their commenters say/feel about things. They were pretty explicit about that.

I could accept that if the post was the initial response (to continue with my chosen example) to the maxi dress piece. But it wasn’t. The initial reaction was defensiveness, mocking, and basically telling everyone to fuck off. I could also accept that this post reflects development of her thought on the matter in the…

“And at least one expressed remorse.” OK, I believe you. Doesn’t really gainsay my point, though.

They develop a singular vision when it comes to mocking their commenters on social media, though. If she really wanted to see her “flaws as they are,” then more listening and less mocking would be a good start. I’m speaking of the maxi dress article, precisely because it stands out in my mind as the most obvious…

Agree. I could have take her post more seriously were it not for the staff teaming up and throwing shit at anyone who didn’t absolutely love the maxi dress article because...satire!

Maybe the exception that proves the rule, but I’m a dude and I buy women’s hair color because it’s cheaper (by, like, half) than the stuff that’s specifically marketed to me.
