I agree, it's a sort of distancing mechanism isn't it? It's the same thing that lets people say "There's no separate category of violence against women", just in case that implies it skews male, with who's perpetrating the violence. So instead it's just random victims (instead of a targeted group, historically

Out of curiousity, why is that? It sounds vaguely like how the price for everything is $X.99 these days. (I like round numbers :(, dammit! )

I won't lie - my phone addiction must be pretty strong, because I nearly had a heart attack because of that GIF...

Lmao that would be entertaining, and insanely claustrophobic. I'm imagining a direwolf sitting in a corner of the plane and daring someone to give him a reason.

Haha, thanks - I thought it was pretty fitting XD

This GIF is amazing!

Aww, I'm loving this ensemble more and more with every story!

This is ridiculously amazing, and always nice to hear about celebrities that are great people to their fans.

Absolutely. Yours is the darker (but also easy to believe) inference you can make from people's behaviour in general.

You seem like a very confusing kind of glass half full (of alcohol) person. I commiserate.

Well of course not. That's exactly what happens when you don't take action when sexual assaults happen. No one gets expelled over it, and no one gets an annotation.

Little you reasoned the same way little me did - but a generation later. The forces of attrition are really dragging their heels...

Yeah, exactly. Agreeing to something/having people sign off on proofs, and then doing something entirely different means the job was done incorrectly.

Geese ARE jerks! (Though for the same reason I'd probably be more likely to be chased by one than hunt one down and eat it.)

"They've got us by the labias and they know it."

I'm pretty sure the masses are convinced that all customer service employees are keeping the easy/quicker/more comfortable way a secret, just to be an asshole to THEM SPECIFICALLY.

That's what I'm getting out of all this too - people are arguing both sides (need to recline, need to stretch my legs), when the real problem is that the seats are intentionally designed with no leg room AND the option to recline to give the illusion of potential comfort. They're setting people up to start this weird

That is just so damn apt...

This video is amazing, and I would totally buy that shirt :p

He's making the same face my dog makes when I leave for work. Just makes me want to smoosh him!
