Everything about it reeks of a privileged girl sitting in a trendy hipster coffee shop in NYC, staring out the window at a line of cars, thinking “I know what will solve everything! Just ban cars! I don’t need a car, I walk to my vegan yogurt store! Why can’t everyone just live in NYC and not own cars!?”

Alyssa,

What about people that don’t live in cities? Are we going to invest in effective public transportation for towns of 500 or 1,000 people? What about actual rural areas? Or are we going to force everyone to move to cities and abandon rural areas (ya know, the places where all the food comes from?). This is seriously a…

Anywhere else on Gawker, the headline would been:

THE BEAST

So we’re supposed to give Murray the side eye forever because his ex wife made one claim during what were apparently extremely bitter divorce proceedings? What exactly is the end goal here? If you want to paint a picture of him as a real, flawed human being, that’s fine, but this just reads like “Someone alleged abuse…

Bill Murray was accused of spousal abuse during an acrimonious divorce; the allegation was later withdrawn. Who gives a shit?

Why is it that every anti-military weapons syetem rant is followed up with the obligatory, “Think of the homeless and poverty we could eliminate with this money” diatribes, as if they are somehow mutually exclusive. Guess what? Without a kick-ass military to defend this nation your numbers of homeless and impoverished…

I feel like trying to start a controversy over the racial prejudices in the entertainment industry because a black character isn’t played by a black person is, in itself, an unfair racial prejudice. An actor doesn’t need to be black to play a black character, nor does he/she need to be white to play a white character.…

and noted that Uncharted 4 also has a black actor playing a white character.

Well said. I was going to say that the author is 1) living in a big city, 2) has never seen a farm or even suburban America, and 3) is smoking crack. But you summarized it much better. Thanks.

How is 10-15 dollars pricey for a game? seriously, Yes they might be old games but that doesn’t mean they need to be priced at 4.99 or less. I’ve really had it with entitled gamers now. When i read the word pricey in the headlines i was expecting 30 dollars or so. Some of these games are a BARGAIN if you don’t have a…

Great games + trophy support + up-rezzed to 1080p....$15 is more than fair.

I dunno...for the amount of under-the-hood improvements these games are receiving, $14.99 seems pretty fair.

Wait... how is this overpriced? Compared to what?

This article is pretty city-centric, which is odd considering that a majority of roadways in the US that the federal government maintains are between urban centers. As much as Uber and company are changing roadways in cities, their acheivements are largely unavailable or useless for a good 80% of the US,…

I’m looking at the study right now, and am a little lost as to how they come to that 50% number. Not because I just don’t understand - I’m pretty well trained in this sort of econometric analysis - but because I think they’re making an (almost certainly innocent) mistake.

This is very similar to the process for changing the spark plugs on my Subaru STI.

When I crouch in a game like Fallout: New Vegas, I just assume it’s because somewhere in my Courier’s past, he was a baseball catcher, and the accumulation of knee injuries just made it hurt like hell for him to move any other way.
