The way the game handled all that was so weird. There’s theoretically a safe mode, if you just want to not be sniped for a while, but A) you have to stay on foot in it and B) people in vehicles can still run you over, they just pay a fine. Vehicle insurance was also weird, you could take someone’s car out and suddenly…

Also, I’ve never heard of the idea of reservations being “old-fashioned” from the customer side. If anything the more common situation I’ve found is where I want to make a reservation, but the restaurant isn’t doing them.

No one condoned violence and did you even read the article? Jaleel White threatened to physically attack a woman over an disagreement because he couldn’t get his way. Jo Marie Peyton has a right to defend herself if someone threatens to fight her. Where is all this energy in condemning Jaleel White for his…

Why does it have to be one sauce? Why not have ranch on the top, Buffalo on the bottom?

Would it be rude to insist you update all of your chicken sandwich reviews with early Simpsons metaphors? Or at least going forward?

Damn it, choose a side already!

You got it, chief!

I’m eager to hear opinions on this from people who don’t know any of the folks involved, know far less about this than the people involved, and don’t even know why they’re expressing their opinions.
