That’s exactly why you don’t take someone to court over $60. Because if your pride and your vindication and your “principles” are worth so much to you that you’re about to sue someone because they stiffed you $60 so you can “prove” that they’re the bad roommate?

Imagine my surprise! Imagine it. Because it isn’t real. There is no surprise. None.

It’s true that other things can be more important than money. But in this case, it’s likely those ‘other things’ are pointing in favor of taking no action. Here’s the thing: Small claims court is not a trivial, simple endeavor. It’s less hassle than going to a normal court, but it’s still a huge pain in the neck.

1. $60 is just not worth going to Small Claims over unless there’s a hell of a lot of other damages associated in associated equities.

You want the truth? You are going to enjoy life WAY more if you stop fighting the small battles that don’t matter in the end. Honestly, dude, I know what you are saying but it’s wrong. You have to let this shit go. Life is full of moments where you get fucked and lots where you don’t or even come out ahead. How many…

Fair enough but I always thought the feud with SJP and Kim Cattrall was because Kim resented the fact that SJP was the star of the TV show. Anyway, I do love Samntha Jones (what gay man doesn’t) and I’m sorry the movie isn’t getting made. Though I seem to be the only one, lol.

As I recall, Catrall’s character spent most of the last movie yowling about not getting any, rolling around in a vat of yams, and screamyelling up some monologued garbage that seemed largely designed to be a western white woman being the savior to a bunch oppressed brown women, who may or may not actually feel the…

I met Kim Cattrall once at a special meet and greet through my employer after she was performing a Shaw play in Toronto (or maybe it was Noel Coward - I forget!). She was just so nice. She took time to talk with everyone and seemed genuinely thrilled that we came to see the play. She also looks great in person - age…

its all stupid but this argument about fetal pain is the stupidest of all. Everything following birth is “painful” - the heel prick, the goop they put in the babies eyes. Just being outside of the womb is a “painful” experience for babies. But, as adults, we realize that a little of pain now is better than a lifetime…

Yeah, but then you’re trashing your OWN shit and who wants to do that? /s

Seems like CSPD ought to be less worried about the calls coming from journalists, and more worried about the calls

This guy is basically going to be a meat shield for him the same way his fans yell “HE’S JEWISH” whenever he goes off on some anti-semitic screed. But now the line will be “HOW CAN HE BE A RACIST HE’S MARRIED TO ONE OF THE BLACKS.” Well, the coach from Friday Night Lights that called Boobie Myles the n-word married a…

So the best Star Trek and Star Wars in decades is “ruin” it? I assume your highest point for Star Wars was Episode 2 and the Christmas Special then? (I mean at least you could talk about Rogue One and how it ruined Star Wars, but you clearly have an allergy to facts).

How dare he use his victim’s plea to be left alone for his own end. This man is despicable.

He now lives in France with his wife, actress Emmanuelle Seigner

Even beyond the grossness of his certainty that everyone is a pedophile, it’s more than a little telling that Polanski doesn’t include women in his concept of “everyone.”

Quoth the rapist: women are “more perfidious than the men, in general”

Not to be confused with Fruits Basket.

This. His “love” of black men is a fetish at best, and at its worst is something even more sinister. He is either with the man because he’s a fetishist, or because of the attention the relationship brings his “brand.” That’s it.

Too bad you’re not on io9: You could say “gorram” and no one would blink.
