I think this is just like every other thing - there's the skill, then the presentation of the skill. I can be the best coder in the world but if my website is ugly as sin no one will want to go to it. I can be the most skilled at anything basically and walk into an interview in cargo shorts, flip flops, and a tshirt…

Nope. It became an issue for me because senior prom I invited this junior that kept putting off turning in the forms until the very last day, and then told me he couldn't go, therefore making it impossible for me to go since I needed a date. I went to my teacher and had a mini-meltdown (because high school) and she…

I take trains because they're cheaper and I happen to live close to a train station. I don't have a dog in this race. I'm sure you'll win me over by telling me how I should feel about a situation though. That's just what I needed - a stranger to dictate my emotions and thoughts to me!

Or, you know, the parents could sit next to their kids.

People like me who don't have much money would buy a cheaper ticket and deal with discomfort rather than buy the 'normal' ticket. Just like how I'll set myself up to be waiting at the train station for 6 hours because it's cheaper than a ticket at a different time. Not everyone is of average and above means, and of…

Because the article is about making it so there are bigger seats. So this woman wouldn't be squashed.

So this can go on airlines where children don't pay less, like the dozens and dozens that you didn't just list. Are you saying because Southwest offers a child fare Delta can't put in an adjustable seat that's smaller and charge less for a child that way? That makes zero sense.

To be fair, I doubt the people on either side of her were intentionally making their...butts spread out, to put it bluntly. So her sitting differently probably would have only made the difference of her being pressed more firmly against them, which isn't really more comfortable. In fact, I would argue that making…

None of the trains I have ever ridden on (I'm a poor so trains are common for me) have ever had that! So much time trying to sleep sitting up and dying.

But the corner that you can just barely see on the right side of the picture doesn't look like 90 degrees, and it would have to be to make that true. Since that wall on the right is basically coming straight out from the camera, the toilet against that wall would be facing the camera almost perfectly with only a…

I...I don't think that's the norm for trains.

Did you actually watch the video? You don't "shove it" to move it, it has to be unclamped and reclamped, and they make it clear that you're not the one doing it yourself. The airline does it before you get on, and then it's there for your entire flight.

I can't wrap my head around the shape of that room given what I can see of the walls in the mirror.

I don't think it's a cause -> effect of "I'm a lesbian, therefore I don't want to wear a dress". I think it's more like women that are lesbians are oftentimes much more progressive and fluid with gender roles than hetero women, therefore a larger subset of them are willing to consider wearing a tux, and then they…

That's how my prom was! It was a Catholic school though so it had weird rules - someone tried to get them to allow same-sex couples and the principal basically said "I would but the alumni would kill me, sorry" and didn't change it.

I think we should go through the ire and question your definition of "unbalanced".

I saw "Keep it covered up" and was thinking it was almost progressive to slut-shame men as well as women, then read the point. Nope, still slut-shaming women. The "it" in this case isn't your body, it's women. Because women are "it"s.

Because Texas and he was anti pre-marital sex.

Literally the only joke there that's at the expense of vegetarians is "they have bad farts". Are you insecure about your farts or something?

The "Pumpkin spice doesn't have pumpkin in it, PANIC" thing cracks me up so much. Yeah, you're right, it doesn't. Because it's a spice. You put it on pumpkin. We are in 2013. We can figure this out, you guys.
