Christ Bobby, what do you want?

I’ve got to second your sentiment. I find all this automation nonsense a bit disgusting. Why are people are so desperate to avoid doing things for themselves? I suppose it’s human nature. They don’t want to think for themselves. They don’t want to take responsibility for their own actions. They don’t want to do…

Hehe, dear boy, I am not the Machiavellian genius who invented electrocuting people. In fact, there’s a whole industry devoted to the manufacture of a device called a “TASER” that does a much better job than anything I suggested.

If only it were that simple. There are so many variables in the equation, it’s actually really difficult to predict what’ll happen exactly. Muscle contractions are sort of a worst case scenario, and really only happen if you full-on grab the wire (or contact point in question). They also depend on the right voltage…

I just watched the video. Bit of a lame setup. Worst case scenario she’d get a brief 120V shock, which would trip the breaker in a fraction of a second.

I dunno Katie. As absurd as it is, from a certain perspective this guy is absolutely right.

Oh, don’t be silly. He’s just generalizing, and accurately I might add. There’s a reason these stereotypes get traction.

C- seems like a very generous rating for Justice League.

Has no one considered the possibility that Matt Damon is actually just a God-level troll? And we’re all playing right into his hands. Bastard.

Yes, damn that Matt Damon for having his own balanced opinions on these issues.

Tough business playing devil’s advocate for a scumbag. I stand by the principle of my commentary. But as for Hoffman himself, well frankly I hope he burns.

Seconded. Horribleness of humanity noted... all is lost.

Quite the series of events, isn’t it?

This is Alabama we’re talking about here.

This young man is in need of some karate lessons. Bless Chris Evans, he’s such a gentleman, but outreach isn’t the answer here.

Wait, why? Are you assuming that people can’t separate the merit of the work from the flaws of the creator? Give us some credit.

No Kinja thread is complete without a good formal logic debate.

I’d say it’s closer to reductio ad absurdum.

So let me get this straight...

I suppose this isn’t too surprising. Hookers, blow and HIV meds are expensive stuff, and Charlie isn’t so busy these days.
