Fuck that, I wanna drop almost $100k on this ugly as sin hippo couch*

You know, I’m a Flint native, lived here all my life. It’s always been a pretty shitty place to live. It wasn’t until I was eleven or twelve until I realized that hearing gunshots at night wasn’t normal. I’ve had my house broken into enough times to give me a permanent paranoia complex. With this water shitshow the…

It’s almost like... America elected a conman who had no real product to sell us. Oh wait, that’s exactly what we did.

Unfortunately, I think Anthony Weiner is dumb enough to only take this headline as a compliment to his genitalia. I humbly submit my alternative title:

Fuck! Me Sideways

You make it sound like the Japanese had a few rifles and some old katanas passed down through samurai families since the Sengoku Era, but:

Besides being patently and demonstrably wrong, your response, or rather, smug assertion, is a total non sequitur. 

I think you are underestimating how fiercely the Japanese fought over every inch of ground, or how deep of an impression it left on the American military. Invading the Japanese Islands might’ve been easier than America feared it was going to be, but those fears were very real, and backed up by mountains of evidence…

You really can’t draw a moral equation between Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and I’ll even throw in the firebombings of Tokyo and Dresden and the Final Solution. The reason you can’t is because intent matters. The bombings of the four cities above were all terrible acts, but the people who ordered them did so under the (in…

This is literally the first time I’ve paid attention to the ZL1, but holy shit, 10 speed transmission? At what number of gears does it become more efficient to give in and pop on a CVT?

It might be a personal honor sort of thing (I’m not comfortable enough with all the nuances of Japanese culture to call it a cultural thing, although I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if it was). But if it were me, I’d realize that something very nearly like 100% of the gaming community is on my side in this one,…

You don’t understand hypothetical questions, do you? 

How the bloody hell did you come by that irrational conclusion? This thought experiment assumes a worst case scenario, it doesn’t matter what extenuating circumstances lead to it. If you need to plug in a reason the crash is happening, be it a mechanical failure, a software glitch, sabotage by nefarious agents of an…

As a caveat to all this, I’m an art major (who didn’t finish college) turned prospective fiction author. I’m admittedly out of my depth talking about math or computer science. That being said, I’m not expecting cars to be able to predict complex physics problems with anywhere near 100% accuracy. However, it shouldn’t…

No, it really isn’t. I was an art major in college, never even took a philosophy class, yet even I know that this is one of the most basic morality thought experiments in philosophic circles. This has nothing to do with laws or legality, and everything to do with humanity. Cynicism is a wonderful tool to have in life,…

There might not be a “right” answer, but that doesn’t mean we should at the very least devote some energy to figuring out the least wrong answer.

1500 Subaru puns

The long development times, and the apparent awkwardness prior to the Veyron’s release make sense; nobody had done anything quite like it (“it” being a luxo-barge that could hit 250 mph) before. It’s totally within the realm of expectations for things to go not-quite-right when you’re in uncharted territory.

I’m 26 and I’m baffled that there’s people almost 30 years old that denigrate the way others chose to make their living simply because it doesn’t conform to their narrow tastes.

Making people scared of harboring or supplying Jihadists can work, but convincing those same people that fighting Jihadists isn’t only in their best interests, but morally right, increases the number of guns you can bring to the fight.
