Parents Night is dreadful. Last year I was singled out by a teacher in a room full of judgmental parents because my 3rd grader, for the "art show", drew a picture of a chicken giving a horse a hand-job. Seriously. I have the photo prove it if you provide me with an e-mail to send it. When I got home, I feared…

Worth noting on the standardized testing/educational competition stuff you write about here: Finland, arguably the world's best educational system, explicitly discourages that kind of thinking and focuses on equality instead of competition.

I just... I don't know, man. The idea that "sometimes following up greatness with mere goodness can just be soul crushing" sticks in my craw.

Is good burn

It's funny how you lump lazy and poor people together. You think all poor people are so because they are lazy? Try and get to know someone who is working and poor. Better yet, realize that, at any instant, your employer could terminate your job to pad his profit margin or executive pay. Anyone in this country that is…

well, thats an incredibly stupid and ignorant statement.

I agree, why help a human when you can kill them?

AFAIK..There was a discussion about this spending in Westpoint..And even thoes well known pinko Lefty liberals of West Point agreed that America needed to spend more on civilian industry than the military..The reason being that if they didn't have an economy to support a military..then it was all for nought and…

As a resident of the great state of South Carolina—epicenter of the War of Northern Aggression—I must point out that Mr. Montgomery broke the first law of SC automobiling: minorities, especially imposing and colossal ones, have no place talking to police officers, especially dimwitted and…

Wait maybe it's over there, <————-

Cant die. Six seasons and a movie!

Every child and parent? No, you're certainly not going to find it. That's similar to the line of reasoning that Gary Oldman was throwing around the other day. Not everybody slings around epithets and not everyone is assaulted by a parent.

A slap here, a belt there, and a little bit of chest impaling in the end? Sounds like abuse.

If you think driving a PVC pipe into a kid's chest is something your parents would do, and normal, I urge you to discuss this with someone.

Nope. Sorry, they were terrible.

Get over yourself.

Why is wanting more representation taking over or turning it into a Women only club, the people that are paying for the games want to be represented as well instead of being actively excluded from being playable protagonists. Making bs excuses for overlooking women is basically saying we want your money but we don't…

"Calm pretty games?" Yikes. Are you that dumb, that you actually believe women don't like strong action games and first person shooter games? Here's the problem: They aren't doing smart business if they ignore 50% of the population. If they want more customers, they need to make reasons for them to be there. This is…

Saying Bruce plagiarized is a bit of a stretch. The Tao of JKD was being written by him, but Bruce never finished or published it. After his death, his notes were organized by others. Now, if taking notes on fighting from other resources to develop your own fighting technique is plagiarism, then most martial…
