Oreo Thins FTW. They have the perfect ratio of cookie to cream. Like how Reese’s eggs are better than regular Reese’s.

I see someone’s been watching their Good Eats

I left my car parked on the street for an entire 3-day weekend once. I didn’t know the city I had just moved to had an ordinance saying you couldn’t leave a car parked on the street for 72 hours straight. Did they excuse my parking ticket because I didn’t know the law? Hell no they didn’t! Ignorantia legis neminem…

I just starred every response on this thread. But you, you beautiful bastard, started this. I wish I could give you more.

Is there any other way to bake cookies?

It sounds like you’re well aware that it’s an issue and that’s more than A LOT of guys can say. It’s possible they just don’t like gaming and that’s not on you to fix.

In my very first reply to you I said that fixing this will take the cooperation of both men and women, so I thought that would make it clear that I don’t only blame the men. I apologize it was not as clear as I intended. When I say “root of the problem” I mean the beginning of the issue, not the only issue.

I mean, I’m not about to tell you that you NEED to invite women to your private game nights in your own home or else you’re a Terrible Person (trademark pending). That’s a little intense for an internet chat. It’s just seems that it might be easier to start a large shift in the gaming community as a whole if it starts…

Sigh. And now is when I pull out the Dumbledore line about doing what is right vs. what is easy.

Macron knew exactly what he was doing and it was glorious. 😏

I do agree that the end was a bit clunky but I think that’s more because the article was not meant to propose a firm and clear solution. It was more of a “this is a thing that happens, and we should be cognizant of it so we can combat it” type article. Sometimes that’s the only solution available when dealing with…

You are correct that the article states women are not very welcoming to other women in the group. But why is that? The article also states that the main reason the women are not welcoming is they are afraid of losing their standing in the group. So why are they afraid of losing their standing? Because as a woman it…

But this article isn’t answering “why are there no women here?” It’s answering “why do women feel upset if there are?”

I really enjoyed the journey this took me on.

I’m very happy to see Pompeii got a shout out cause it’s the movie I immediately thought of. I’m usually pretty good at hiding it if that’s the reason I want to watch something but my husband totally knew. He even picked it up from the redbox for me.

While you are correct that $1k-$3k is relatively normal for someone who can afford a week vacation, I think most of the derision aimed at this particular group is not so much that they’re 1%, but rather that they should have realized that the kind of luxury they were being promised was not possible for the money they…

I desperately want to see the rest of that convo.

We don’t actually. That’s what adoption is for.

I was 3 hours and 11 minutes away from not crying today. Thanks. 😭

I wouldn’t say it’s a vast majority but it is the majority. I’m hopeful that with the breakdown of the Republican Party this election the next 2-4 years will be a boon to liberal sensibilities especially worker’s rights. Hopefully liberal legislation will be passed waking these voters up to the fact that for so long…
