I also agree that you shouldn't have sex with a drunk person, BECAUSE THAT IS RAPE FOR FUCK'S SAKE.

I'm from a country where the drinking age is 18 and we have absolutely zero problems with binge-drinking, public drunkenness or people ending up in ER getting their stomach pumped after drinking an entire bottle of vodka.

I think I may be demoting JLaw from Fictional BFF status.

It's a touchy issue, as cartoon horse issues go.

People who have really been mugged REMEMBER! If the mugger hits you over the head with a bat and you lose several hours of your life to a blackout, it's not a real mugging. Because you don't remember the bit where he actually went through your pockets and took your wallet.

I mean, I get this, but also as I said somewhere down thread, an enhanced sense of "fuck you" is a pretty poor trade-off for a strong balanced fighting stance, particularly if kicking people in the head is part of your job description.

Agreed. "Feeling powerful" is a pretty poor trade-off for being able to hold a strong balanced stance. Especially if your job involves kicking people in the head.

Yes, it is technically possible to run in heels. It is also probably possible, with enough training, to kick the shit out of someone wearing heels. But, why the hell would any serious warrior-type deliberately put themselves at a tactical disadvantage and risk permanent damage to their body by incorporating heels into…

Unless you're Anita Sarkeesian, in which case turning off your YouTube comments in an act of censorship and means that she is obviously terrified of discourse, dissent and constructive criticism.

So what exactly could OITNB do to satisfy Berlatsky's criticism?

I spent my entire primary and secondary education wearing uniforms. In my secondary school in particular was FANATICAL about the uniform. They dictated exactly what we wore, from our hair ties down to our socks and also exactly how we were supposed to wear it (cuffs turned out, shoes tied a certain way, socks above…

"I don't believe in jacking beautiful years of sartorial freedom away from children because we adults have to sit in scratchy, ill-fitting dress pants all day."

Same here. And if anything, the uniforms just made those little "add-ons" stand out more in the crowd.

OK, so I can't write.

Question for the peanut gallery:

I think you all mean Vladimir and Estragon at #1.

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate that body guard's heroic effort to press the goddamn elevator button while simultaneously restraining a fighty Solange?

Oh dear. I think Not All Men maybe need to grow a thicker skin and learn how to take a joke, because they are totally hyper-sensitive and overreacting and looking for reasons to get offended over some stupid stuff on the Internet. Not All Men can be such humourless buzzkills.

Like, I can imagine you could break someone's neck and kill them instantly, but that would be contingent on a lot of factors. I don't really know, I imagine there's a technique to it and it's not something an average Joe on the street could pull off cleanly. I've heard it's possible to do it with pressure points, but…
