“...If the boys want to fight you better let ‘em.”
- Phil Linnot, 1976

The point of football is to score by putting the ball past the goal line in a variety of ways. The point of fighting is to disable your opponent with physical violence. People who fight know what they’ve signed up for.

I feel like it’s better for everyone if what happens in 4chan stays in 4chan. I don’t know why you give a platform to this nonsense but it’s why Giz Media will always be only one step above 4chan in terms of credibility. Are you debunking? Mocking? Supporting? Can’t tell...but I know there’s no such thing as bad…

The idea that stealth aliens have been and are visiting this planet undetected is absurd, but lots of people believe it. I’m not even going to go into how many problems there are with this idea. This “new” “alien” “sighting” is none of those things. These are old reports and nothing is consistent between them but the…

I read once that the email scammers that do the email with the “I have $80 million in the bank and I need you to help me get it out” scam emails deliberately pepper the email with bad grammar and misspellings in a deliberate attempt to weed out smart people. They’re targeting morons.

Well, “the troops” are two things: they are a weapon wielded for political advantage by old white men who don’t care about consequences as long as their rent-taking can continue to enrich them, and they are individual people that are used by their government, abused by the ignorant, and not well taken care of by the…

Depends on a lot of factors. Even odds she if she hit him at all she hit him in the vest or some other protective equipment. Even if not, depends on where the probes land and the CON saving throw of the tasee. Some people can tough it out, other go down like a sack of potatoes.

I paid $800 for a Pixel XL that was very unreliable and quirky. The Pixel 3 at $400 says to me, “well, now we know what these are actually worth.” They kept updating it and taking away features I used. I’ll stick with Samsung. They’ve proved to be fairly reliable.

“As most women will tell you, six inches isn’t even all that noticeable.”

No shit, Sherlock. Gates is a smart man and a competent technologist but he’s no economist, and less a sociologist. The real world implementation of an economic system seldom looks like the textbook and there are many version of “Social Ownership” that characterize a socialist economy, not just ownership by the…

Sorry, I thought baseless assumptions was the game we were playing here. You made several.

Tired, sad, old argument, Mr. Patriarchy. I don’t expect to be able to reason with a Trump supporter, though.

Shuffled.

That’s what patriarchy wants you to think, yes. The reason what you posted is nonsense is because of the opposite effect. Emma Thompson is well know and powerful in the industry. She has the ability to bring some attention to the issue and inspire others to do so. That it makes you uncomfortable enough to insult the…

“You” who, then?

“a sentient Reddit comment starting off with “by your logic” that also has a 95-mph fastball (as well as a variety of other pitches it claims to have learned by reverse-engineering spin-rate statistics).”

No, you called a TV repairman that came to your house. That console TV cost about $2,000 in today’s money. Electronics weren’t disposable then like they are now.

The user interface on this site is a non-stop attack on my ability to actually read the content, randomly yanking the screen down or covering what I’m reading. This smacks of a media outlet desperate for clicks.

I am so fucking done fighting your crappy user interface to read your crappy articles.

Go to therapy. Go to therapy. Go. To. Therapy.
