"...and handle like wheelchairs on ice. "

Calling something a "dick move" isn't exactly approval. I think it's pretty clear where I stand on what this woman did, though I don't think throwing "dumb cunt" around is really necessary.

You think MGS is mediocre, and yet, I disagree. I think it all comes down to what constitutes a good story. You seem to like the series but are hung up and frustrated on its lack of narrative craftsmanship as compared to the greatest works of art. Don't evaluate art from such a technical lens. It definitely has its

Music...poor...choice? O_o

As much as I'd love to believe they're just going to patch it in shortly, this is the same company that charges you $25 for a new neighborhood and then a separate $20 for the lot that is designed to sit in the center of it.

I hear you, but I feel like what she was recommending was so over-the-top (cover your friend with a blanket! got a solid laugh) that it shows the absurd lengths women have to go to to protect themselves. They're almost satirizing the people who put the responsibility on women. But I could be reading it with

ew. Dude. You know what else is forced? Sexual assault.

Here's a BOLDER followup proposal. I am the original author and I would love to schedule a meetup in San Francisco at a location/time TBD for shits and giggles.

I don't find it pathetic or robotic, so much as efficient and straightforward. Shockingly enough, I *like* that!

Perfect example of why the Slow-mo feature is cancer and promotes run and gun as opposed to stealth. Why bother sneaking if you can just pop the guy who spotted you before he can be alerted?

I don't know. I think usually, writing it in English makes sure that it is a foreign word more so than Katakana. I used to think that way when I couldn't speak a speck of English.

I once invited a friend to go to Japanese club with me once, he called the teacher Senpai-chan.

Man, I like the idea of doing song covers in a different style than the original work, but every time I hear one of these I'm always disappointed by the arrangement. There's always this weird disconnect between the musical and vocal composition. Like... it feels almost like they rewrote the music and then simply asked

I hope this doesn't come across as minimizing what happened or as denying that transgender people are very frequently the target of hate crimes, because that is not what I mean to do. But I can also kind of see where the officer is coming from. I have cadaver dogs and even though I'm a civilian handler, we're called

I worked at a place that always kept plates in a salamander - an open faced toaster oven type device. This was to keep the food from cooling down too much on a cold plate on the way to the table and we were meant to always use hot pads when carrying and warn the customers of the temp of the plates. But coworkers

I believe I read elsewhere that it was after dark, and she didn't turn on her hazard lights, which was why the guy on the motorcycle didn't see the car in time.

I'm not victim blaming, but didn't the motorcycle rider also have a responsibility to be watching out for traffic in front of him? I've heard of so many accidents that are the opposite scenario, where someone stopped on the side of the road is injured or killed by an inattentive or impaired driver plowing into them.

I agree 16 year olds have no business being on a motorcycle, but if an adult wants to endanger their life by riding a motorcycle, that's on them and their choice.

Actually, the speed limit was 90 km/hr which roughly equates to 55 mph which means he was going somewhere between 23 and 39 km/hr over the speed limit. While she obviously made a gigantic mistake and should bear the consequences of that, she wasn't stopping on a highway where 75 mph is appropriate at all.

Even completing the objective for each achievement in this game will get you nothing in real life. If he was going to play the game anyway, why not let him do something different and entertaining if only to him?
