I agree. The best in-office advice is to stand up regularly and avert ye eyes from the computer screen a couple times an hour. Bring your own food to work, drink water, move your feet at your desk. The only work scenario where this might be a problem is if you work in a call center that uses metrics (and fuck…

I agree completely. I see where the bride is coming from, but she is an idiot who doesn't understand how that tradition worked and is a terrible person for bringing it up, period.

If you have a mac pro, indeed, if you need a mac pro, you're not concerned with how the chassis looks. This is vanity design. Is this supposed to be a cylindrical chassis design or is the front just rounded? If the chassis is cylindrical, this is a fad. There will not be a new standard for internal components…

It used to be that your family and community came together to give and provide for your wedding and the intention was to get a married couple off to a good start. But those were not $20k catered weddings and you were grateful for what you got, not an entitled moron.

In the description of the wedding in the early chapters of Upton Sinclair's The Jungle, they do describe how the gifts are supposed to help the young couple get started and my understanding is that in many communities, the family and friends came together to provide food and entertainment. The bride and groom were…

Damn Viacom and their copyright claims. Video is already gone.

I know there is predictive law enforcement software out there already that has been used to determine the most dangerous times on stretches of roads, predicted increases in criminal activity and in one instance, predicted when and where a bank was robbed and the cops were waiting outside (in Milwaukee, I can't find…

I really hope the singing during sex thing is made up. That's really, really creepy.

Agreed. The biggest red flag I see on this list though is the "Tell me a story." Is his girlfriend 5??? Aside from that, I see things on here my girlfriend does and I see things on here that I do.

To be fair, they did recently announce that nothing outside of the existing movies is canon.

I could, but I'm not going to. I'm also not being disingenuous. When has rational discourse ever occurred when people are (hmm, can't use the words emotional or screaming) about their position. No one thinks clearly when they are angry. And you are obviously too angry at the way I presented my position to actually…

Vehement terms don't suit the discussion of the drinking or the rape.

Men can't scream? Don't infer things that aren't related. I am outraged that this happened, and these boys should be punished far more than they have been (especially considering the guy who outed them is looking at 10 years). I'm talking about reactionism as opposed to rational discourse. It appears that this is…

It may have. My understanding was that it was with students from another school in another town.

I agree. There is nothing okay about what those boys did and they deserve far harsher punishment than they got.

Not really strange. If you grew up in a small enough town, even in liberal states, the hatred and ignorance is rife. Even in 2013 the assumption that there is something to fear from hatemongers is not strange.
Unless you're talking about the assumption that they could literally choke an assailant with their asses...…

I'd like to pretend a cross wasn't burned in the yard of upper middle-class mixed race family that moved to the small Kansas town I attended high school in in the mid-nineties, but pretending doesn't change the reality that we still have a couple of generations of ignorance to go before blind fear of color and…

I had Brit Lit with a close classmate whose father taught the class. He was the only one who taught it. Other than that class, my classmate made sure, where possible, that he was not in his father's classes. His dad was a nice guy, but would have held his kid to a higher standard.

I'll be honest. I interpreted that as super ladies of Washington, D.C. I came here expecting to see Hillary Clinton and Diane Feinstein in skinny jeans and hipster glasses.

Then explain why all of your posts espouse the ideas of Adler's psychology? I don't come here to troll. I come here to comment, and call out trolls (in this instance in a very specific manner).
