Triforce?

Response to refugee crisis: “Fuck our principles! If accepting refugees poses even .00001% of a threat, then zero tolerance must be the rule!”

I’m not butthurt, not am I bitching. It wouldn’t take much effort, either. Run a system call to pull a few details of your console avatar, and apply them as a default to the game. Presenting a suggestion for improvement doesn’t mean that I have a problem with the current system. Some people do and this is a way to

I just think it ignores the fact that about a zillion Asian women have straight hair (often straighter than a lot of white women’s hair) - I guess they don’t exist?

About half of the women in the entire world have straight hair and are not white. It’s insulting and very ethnocentric to reduce everything that is not black to white.

Yep, only white people have straight hair naturally. Asian people don’t exist, apparently.

We shouldn’t really be shutting down a piece of technology every time someone does something douchey with it. That bar is too low. We’d be giving up progress as a civilization, and we wouldn’t even be getting ‘no longer having to deal with douchebags’ as a reward.

While your overall point is fair, “white-knighting” will never not be one of those terms that immediately flags the writer as an asshole.

Classy.

This is a Goodbye Direct to You.

...seriously?

You can’t eliminate default altogether. SOMETHING must be a beginning point for creation of your character and it happens to be a white male.

Are you really whining that the male is default

Of course not, I’m not condemning the game for it. I’m just saying it’d be a cool improvement in future games.

I haven’t even watched it but dude. THE DUMBEST THING ON TELEVISION? Have you SEEN television lately? I mean...come on.

I’m just amazed that to the last you refused to engage with the argument I actually made. As if I care about/love the show, which I don’t.

Again, you miss the point. You asked why the show existed, I gave a perfectly reasonable answer as to why, backed up by several very obvious similar examples. Why you don’t like it is not the argument. I repeat: you can dislike the show, and I don’t watch the show. Your obtuseness comes in the refusing to acknowledge

I think you’re being willfully obtuse, frankly. Of course I don’t work on the show. I don’t even watch the show. And you don’t have to like the show. I’ve said literally two things.

You're better than me, because I would've said "bitch, YOU'RE gross and YOU don't wear bras" thereby converting no one.

What Kim Kardashian actually said was that she thought her weight gain was a punishment for thinking she was so hot. Not a punishment for being hot. I think the distinction is actually really important for the context of what she said, because one makes her sound self reflective, and a little sad, the other sounds
