Larry Fitzgerald says "Hi" for multiple reasons.

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance would like a word with you, at the very least.

Not to too eagerly defend her or the show, because I didn't really like the pilot, that's actually a line from the show, not a quote from an article.

Okay, so I just read that "Girls" piece. And while I think it's nice that that author felt that she could relate to the show, she basically embodies what I think the problem with the show is. Which is that it's not universal. At all. I feel like you can only really relate to it if you're from a privileged background,…

My problem (aside from the main character being so self-absored that she was kinda insufferable) was that the whole thing was just so boring. And if you're not gonna have much happen, you have to make likable characters that I might actually care about, which they didn't at all.

Hey, people, the reason that this is a big deal is because commercials are what pay for television shows to be produced, not your cable bill.

X-Men's generally been more considered a parable about race since it started in the 60s, or at least that's the impression I've been under. Professor X as MLK and Magneto as Malcolm X, for example.

You never see such an amount of public spectacle for a film or book

We learn about things like the Trail of Tears, but usually don't delve into the specifics at a young age. High school kinda lets you know how big of assholes we were.

Writing code is much more like writing a story than it is like just using math. We can have the same beginning and ending to the story, but there are a huge amount of different ways that one can get from point a to point b, each with it's own benefits and drawbacks. What you're saying might, in theory, be true for the…

I love this. Seriously.

I'll add my own anecdotal story:

They can't, because the reason Firefox is based on Navigator is because Navigator was open-sourced years ago. You can't sue someone for using code that was given away for free, as long as they're adhering to the licensing rules you set forth.

At the very least, they may not be a billion dollar company, but they may employ millions of dollars worth of talent.

I'd agree with you, except for the fact that technically, that girl "does" come with that game. She's the main character, and actually dresses in those outfits in the actual game. Here's a better way to put it: Would you be as upset if this booth was for Halo and they had someone dressed up as Master Chief to grab…

Except that she looks almost exactly like the character for the game.

That was probably a typo. T is right above G on a keyboard.

Pretty much everywhere I've pre-ordered makes you pay a small amount (say, $5) for the pre-order, though you don't have to pay down the whole game, and you can eventually move the money to something else if you'd like.

Money in their hand before a game releases is better than hoping for sales after it does. And more importantly, the more pre-orders a game gets, the more faith publishers have in bankrolling a studio's next game.

Roll Tide.
