So the guy will have to wear something other than a suit? Or just a different kind of suit? Double breasted? Tuxedo? Bow tie? Cummerbund?

She left her marriage to date him, and he’s too douchey for her? I’m guessing they’re the right level of douche for each other.

Smartphones are a great tool for this, in a lot of ways. Part of my lateness issue is an irrational aversion to “wasted time”. It’s strongly irrational for a large number of reasons. Mostly because I waste lots and lots of time every day. But having a computer in my pocket means I can amuse myself when I’m early now,…

Like any sort of chronic behavioral issue, lateness can stem from a number of reasons. Anxiety, narcissism, a poor sense of time, etc. I live my life 5-10 minutes behind schedule, and it’s a combination of ADD and an exceptionally poor sense of time. I try to set up coping mechanisms, but I always adapt to them over…

You're terrible at this. That's only true if you assume your conclusion. It's a textbook circular argument.

“Previous Consent” is not a thing. It’s about as relevant to consent as “I just know” or “She was really into it before she passed out.” It's an unspoken assumption requiring no factual basis.

What? What argument do you think I'm making? The counterargument to "There can be no consent after consuming alcohol" isn't "There is always consent after drinking alcohol". I don't know what kind of bizarre binary you're using.

You seem to like averages a lot; the average man isn’t 100 pounds heavier than she is. On average, he will be 30 pounds heavier than she is. And if Average Woman is attacking Average Man, he will need to defend himself vigorously and physically.

So when a husband and wife share a bottle of wine over dinner, any sexual activity that night is non-consensual? It's an indefensible idea.

No, he's just putting it in his jacket pocket.

I’m always reticent to get into this topic because 1) it’s a complex issue, and 2) men love to bring disingenuous, bad faith arguments into it.

That’s a great answer, too bad it has nothing to do with the question.

The best analogy I can think of is borrowing/lending money. If you are sober, and I have been drinking, when is it not ok to borrow money from me? Where is the line between borrowing and stealing? How drunk is too drunk to consent to lending someone money?

If someone is violently attacking you, and you aren’t in a position to disengage non-violently, it’s perfectly acceptable to use a reasonable elevation of force to defend yourself.

I don’t find it surprising, because it’s an attitude that goes hand in hand with believing that women are inferior. You’ll find that they’ll typically become fundamentalists about it:
“Even if she’s repeatedly punching you in the face?”
“Never hit a woman, brah.”
The assumption being that women, like children, can never…

Alexandria’s camp story is the same as every other* outsider’s camp story. “People suck.”

No, I agree with the author. It's best to move on in quanta.

He’s defining “hockey fan” as “a person who loves the game unconditionally, as it is, while only criticizing the right people.”

See, I knew we agreed. It’s completely inconsistent; you have to punish the action, not the result. And the NHL massively overreacted on Bertuzzi and ignores fouls regularly that are more egregious because bones didn't break. It's all based on optics, and it's stupid and capricious.

It’s like you didn’t really read what I said. Of course it was suspendable. But people make dirtier, more dangerous plays than sucker punches every night of the season. The only difference is that Moore got badly hurt while other players got lucky.
