A rare example of something that was actually horrible.

It isn’t the act that bothers me, it is the neuroses behind it that does. Thoughtful, healthy, well-adjusted people don’t do the things I discussed.
I don’t believe in the Moon. I think it’s just the back of the Sun.
I suppose I shouldn’t engage someone who didn’t understand what I said, but I will, anyway.
Cute. It is your position, then, that my argument is invalid because I used hyperbole in order to make my point. Presumably you understand that most anyone capable of typing in any language would also have a working understanding of general human cognitive abilities. That means you also surely know that I exaggerated…
I... I don’t know that I’ve ever read or heard such a scathing condemnation of someone expressing the notion that language is best used with care and not warped in an unwitting effort to make everything seem better. Yes, “awesome” as a euphemism for “above average” is part of modern usage, but I interpret Tyson’s…
They have to pay their people somehow and since nobody is willing to pay for content, they have to sell ad space. It’s astounding how entitled some of you are. Scroll past the ads, read the article, and stop bellyaching.
Being honest takes no time at all. Or do you mean maintaining honesty for six whole seconds would be difficult for you?
The driver had a regular, continuous task to perform the entire time the vehicle was in motion: watch the road.
That might not have been typed by a native English speaker. Note the omission of “had” at the beginning. The mention of Sweden, whose language is much different from English, is another clue.
”Admits” is a charged, and uncalled-for, word in this case. Based on all the reports I’ve read, they’ve been forthcoming about every incident. They disclosed the information. They shared it. Admitting something implies a feeling of culpability, which I do not think is the case, nor does it seem to follow. The (or a)…
There is a simple solution to this problem: watch the road, everyone. There. Problem solved.
Oh, wow. Demolition Man reference. Topical. I remember in that movie that Stallone’s character actively decided to learn to drive the car. I should hope more real people would follow that example.
I drove a 2014 Taurus Limited AWD for a year. I can confirm everything he said, except the power because the Limited has the 3.5 NA engine at 288HP. Still plenty powerful, but my eyeballs never melted. One word: automatically adjusting seats for easy entry and adaptive cruise control. “That was more than one word.”…
Did you even watch that scene? Luke had zero trouble parrying her attacks with a stick he effortlessly fucked out of the ground until she switched to a lightsaber, which could pass through his little stick without slowing down. He had no desire nor reason to hurt her. It wasn’t a duel. It was a clash of personality.…
That is probably the dumbest thing I’ve ever read. And yes, I’m not engaging this intellectually because that would be like trying to debate rules of engagement with a Voxyn. There, I made a reference to your precious, irrelevant extended universe. Oops, I mean Legends. Let old, terrible, dumb things die.
The interesting thing to me about stories like this is that nobody seems to mind when people casually use euphemisms in order to manipulate someone. Sure, only airheads say ‘literally’ when they mean ‘figuratively’, but that’s so widely recognized that nobody would misunderstand.
Looks like a Charger (front) and a Challenger (rear). Nice lines.
That stick below the radio had better be for a manual transmission version of this truck. The only thing dumber than an automatic shifter in that spot is... is... no. I can’t think of anything dumber.
Cute story, fun article. Question: what is a “DVD”?
