Plot twist: You’ve been exchanging words with Samurai Orochi and your message of “just because you can’t doesn’t mean you should” is falling on deaf ears.

Totally fair. I mentioned elsewhere that I think that too often the characters are too “shouty,” for lack of a better word. And everyone is EXTREME in their show of passion, emotion, determination and whatnot. And yea, it certainly does take itself very seriously, but I am ok with that whereas a close friend of mine…

If I was in your shoes I would have had a friend take a picture of me appearing to take keen interest in reading one of those books and then posting it on the internet for the sweet, sweet Karma upvotes.

Here’s the thing though. If Serena Williams had an uncharacteristically long face, then suddenly that last tweet there ends up sounding insensitive and dehumanizing. Context.

I completely see it as absurd, obviously. But I do like the fact that the creatures are so ridiculous, per the comments by DMoose. Again, can you imagine the absolute irony if mankind was threatened with extinction because a giant race of “Pacmen” were eating people? Crazy black humor there, but how utterly terrifying.

I’ve always said that around 400 wheel horsepower is the upper limit of power that is necessary for a street car to do anything, and even that is stretching it for a large percentage of drivers. This car is right around that sweet spot.

Comments have been made by characters about the absurdity of the Titans’ appearance.

Perfect at a public hippy venue in, say, Yokohama, Japan. Maybe not so much in, say, Bronx, New York.

Nope, you didn’t. At least not in the video, which doesn’t even do so much as to gloss over the topic.

Lack of consistent, aware, predictable driving is a hallmark of shitty, selfish, and/or aggressive drivers on public shared roads. That’s pretty much what I’ve boiled down my approximately 26 years and 500,000 miles of commuting.

For a second while looking at the graphic at the top, Bose-Einstein Condensate popped into my head. And while this article doesn’t describe the same thing, I can’t help but feel there are distinct similarities.

I’ve had a 1995 Ford Probe GT that I bought new when it came out. In June of 2007, at 142k miles, I drove it for the last time. This past October, I was finally determined to get it running again, the goal being that if I didn’t get it fully operational by its 10 year “anniversary” of not running that I’d get rid of…

Thanks for the explanation. It took me a moment to figure it all out, but now I understand.

I have two Corsair K70 Vengeance keyboards with just red LEDs (with MX Reds, not that it matters). I’m not all into fancy colors and all that. Both were right around $100 each, maybe a few dollars more, but certainly nowhere near $70 more. While I didn’t think I’d use the additional function keys on the keyboard much,…

Any chance you can further explain the “non-standard bottom row” of the K70? I have two basic red K70 keyboards with Cherry MX Reds (one for work, one for home) and I’m quite happy with them. While I have no thoughts about getting aftermarket keycaps, I’d still like to know what you mean in case I do consider…

It’s a good distraction technique. People who don’t expect it will be thrown off their game by it, like the above mentioned guy who couldn’t stop laughing. Of course it could potentially be more effective he if was a 350 pound dude.

Very much this. Settings I turn off, I want left off. But nobody wants to be susceptible to a lawsuit in this litigious country, so the stupid nanny features will always reactivate. If I had it my way, all “features” should be easily disabled and enabled via a web interface or mobile app that is secured to prevent…

Nah, not at all.

I really meant to say “swallow up by the ocean permanently.” But yea, good burn.

I am talking to my co-workers about taking a trip to New Orleans very soon to eat some amazing food before the whole place is swallowed up by the ocean.
