I'm a big fan of my Ducti.

It's generally not. At most, some people interpret straight edge as now sex before marriage or no promiscuous sex. I have never heard of someone interpreting it as no sex ever. At it's basic it is no alcohol, nor tobacco, and no recreational drugs. That's it. None of this silliness about sex or meat or whatever.

This has been one of my issues with maternity leave for a long time. Every time someone says "isn't Europe awesome? they give mothers a year of paid maternity leave" I would say no ,because the fathers don't get squat. One of the reasons gender roles for raising children are still as strong as they are is because of…

On one hand, I hope she wins a boatload of money. On the other hand, I have a feeling if she does, they will just take it from the money that was supposed to be used to test rape kits so the backlog will be bigger...

Technically you should sing the Happy Birthday song twice to get to 20 seconds. Not that anyone outside of hospitals does it.

But that fact is, her past conviction in no way effect this case. Yes, she has past conviction for prostitution. Yes, the cops were probably right when they thought she was soliciting. But that doesn't change the fact that the only evidence they had was the fact she was wearing clothing. If they had had actually seen…

The Galaxy Nexus is still a number of version behind on Verizon while being up to date on every other carrier. The Nexus line is pure Android, and Google has put the updates out there, but Verizon is incredibly slow in approving them (or just doesn't want to). This is the reason they decided not to make a Verizon…

Verizon has a lot going against it (even if coverage isn't one of them). First, they are still CDMA, which just annoys me to no end. There isn't any reason to still be doing CMDA, especially when you have to have a GSM sim in every phone for international coverage. Second, they have an infuriating need to control…

I've often said that baseball is a great 45 minutes of game crammed into 4 hours.

Generally, I won't pay for apps. But there have been some special apps that have gotten me to pay a dollar. The only app more than $1 I bought is Zombie, Run! which was actually $7.99. But that was totally worth it. But generally it is at most $1.

While you may not have anything then, why can't you plan for the future. It wouldn't be hard to think of things and put them in. Sure, you may not know your careers, but it would benefit to put in "If one party makes more than $20000 a year more than the other, then there will be spousal support of $X" or the person…

I don't see how the pre-nup could be considered a "way out". Divorce is almost never easy. It's not like someone thinks "well, we had a fight. normally I would stick it out but since I have a pre-nup, I'm just going to call it quits now" (well, not anyone in a real relationship). The pre-nup just guards against some…

Having been married (and had an very amicable divorce) the best advice I could give anyone is to always get a pre-nup. ALWAYS. The idea behind a pre-nup is simple to make sure that if the marriage breaks up (and half do) that you have a fair starting place for dividing thing which will help cut down on the animosity…

It's definitely because they are looking at the big Billboard hits. If you look sat older or less popular artists/songs, Amazon almost always comes out cheaper.

I read the title and immediately thought she started changing her relationship, with money. I was excited to hear how she was paying her boyfriend to do things and adding a hooker to their love life.

If you look closer, the 300 MB plan is only available with dumb phone, not smart phones. So the cheapest plan you can get with a smart phone is the 2 GB plan.

While I am sure your costs went up, I would question how much was actually do to the ACA. Insurance premiums have been steadily increasing for probably the last 10-15 years. But once the ACA was passed, it suddenly became "My premiums went up. Thanks Obama." The ACA is being used as a scapegoat for a lot of things…

If you want to invest in individual stocks, the best advise I was ever given is to invest in companies you know and trust. Yes, you can go out and research and invest in companies that are up and coming and take your chances, but if you invest in things you already know and trust, chances are they are good companies…

Most things hit the internet is one fell swoop. As people discover "cool new things" they share them and they spread across the entire internet with hours or days. So when something good comes along, it hits all the major sites in the same time frame. So people submit it here, to Reddit, to Slashdot (if appropriate),…
