On the topic of sales, I try to avoid buying something in a sale that I didn't already know I needed.

He looks like a nice enough guy...let 'em through.

First of all, I'm not sure what your issue with Cory Monteith is. "...Fuck, he's in the same breath as [Cory] Monteith now." He was by all accounts a great guy and I'm not even a Glee fan per se but I recognize that he had a lot of talent and many fans will miss him.

For those of us who are on Facebook and Twitter today who have also lost loved ones to heroin overdose regardless of however many people have died that way before them, seeing shit like this is not only totally retraumatizing, but trivializing, insulting, and deeply hurtful.

My brother wasn't stupid. His death wasn't…

Thank you. I was going to say the same thing.

I'm not saying not to get the "Good Old Fashion Ring", I am just saying the value of the ring does not reflect your love or commitment.

Jesus fuck I hate people who talk about "purple" people when they're discussing race. LOL, reducing non-white people to the level of whimsical, imaginary people! Like I needed another reason to find him repulsive.

Why would you ever think making sexual advances is okay in a professional context?

They are willing. They do speak out. They are speaking out.

Between this and instances of people telling devs to kill themselves on Twitter for some gameplay tweak they don't agree with, it can be REALLY embarrassing to be a part of gaming culture.

Sorry, but you can't write it off. It is easy to say you should, but given the history of women being harassed by men due to their gender, talking about it is always infinitely better than ignoring. If you ignore it, it will happen again, if you talk about it maybe next time someone will think about the repercussion…

Ugh, ok, PSA time.

"See, what I don't understand is why she didn't just tell him to stop...Unless she knew he was drunk and wanted to mess with him or something, I don't understand."

I was responding to the above comment, you fool. And you know it doesn't have to be rape to have harmful effects in society - language, ideas,…
