There’s a difference between asking me indirectly what my position is and deliberately misrepresenting it to discredit it. I didn’t mean *literally* every time I see “So you think”. I was being a little hyperbolic to make a point. To modify your example for clarity:

“I don’t think a complete on ban plastic straws is…

I suspected as much. It’s become hard to tell now that we’re existing an a real life Onion article. 

Here’s an even better idea: If you’re not going to intellectually engage with an opposing viewpoint that is testing the boundaries of your assertions, why don’t you just not reply at all. Or even say anything in the first place that people want to test you on. Just shut the fuck up and go away if you’re the kind of…

Yeah, it read okay to me. Just complaining about struggling to converse with someone in English when it would have been easier in Spanish, had she known the person was a native Spanish speaker.

I remember my mother telling me I’d have a tough time getting a job without good handwriting on my application. I am not all that old.

Well said

I know this is dirty but I’d want them to get rid of the filibuster when they win the Senate, and put it right the fuck back in the next lame duck session where they lose the Senate. Pull some North Carolina shit. Human rights and combating climate change and income inequality are noble reasons to fight dirty in my…

I haven’t gotten into it on a deep level yet, but it’s reading to me like reflexive “Trump done fucked up” shit. You talking here, or officially?

Finally, someone who gets it.

I was wondering why this article read like trash, got to the bottom, realized I had been linked to The Root.

Your comment has nothing to do with the original subject. You’re not wrong, but you’re completely out of context here and nothing you said makes his comment wrong.

A lot of what you said is at least somewhat incorrect, because the Let’s Go games are based on Yellow (not Red/Blue), which did feature Jessie and James. I know I’m being a bit pedantic about it but that is also why the two starters are Pikachu or Eevee and a bunch of other stuff that seems kind of out of place if you…

I wholeheartedly agree with all the reforms you mentioned. I especially like the idea of making the press conference a mandated length and shifting more credentialing power to reporters.

Do you mean Hitmonlee?

This is the kind of thing that makes me hate reading blogs/aggregates. No inverted pyramid. I shouldn’t have to wait to the second to last paragraph to find out what happened. Like journalism students in their first month know to give the newest info first.

Well, the vast majority of the rabid, pitchfork-wielding Gawker audience could learn a lot from your civility and preference for rational discussion to angry name-calling.

But why go out of your way to reassure those voters that their reasoning wasn’t racist?

Can’t. Leg day.

Easy? You call that easy?
