There are a separate set of rollers (and obviously some additional gears) to get you going in the right direction

Isn’t that like most transactions? As in you bought a product, didn’t use it in any capacity, and wanted to return it, the place would take it back unless they had a policy against it.

Well then you’re not snipping any ends, but those dapper doos could have a ‘sheath’ of sorts that the extra end curls down into to keep it from flapping.

Finally, Schreier explains, in detail, why 6 is the greatest FF of all time.

“Princess Leila”

I can imagine seeing the potential for damage with a relatively simple, formulaic game. If the community at large gets the “OK” to start doing this, it’s very possible they would put out far better games than Nintendo could, simply because this is something which people can build well in parallel, and the skill…

There’s no evidence of a pattern of sexual abuse - what a medical examiner noticed was vaginitis, which is really common in children and can be caused by anything from physical trauma to chemicals in laundry detergent. There’s also evidence of defense wounds around the ligature used to strangle her, which means she…

I don’t know if you noticed, but 2016 can be summed up as “a race to the bottom”. So this falls right in line with that.

I’m sorry you didn’t get enough hugs growing up.

But no, he doesn’t deserve abuse, nor is being abused like being an alcoholic or any other “Self destructive” behavioral example you bring up. Comparing the two doesn’t work. It’s not even apples and oranges, it’s apples and tap shoes.

Unless you’re talking about a…

Those toxic-masculinity MRA-neckbeard cases upthread (srsly who let those morons in here? we’re tryina have a nice discussion) are exactly part of the problem. I don’t consider these idiots to be humans, because they don’t consider women humans, and they don’t even treat their fellow men as humans, and they certainly…

I do remember that.

Sadly, few people will look at this from that perspective. If this were a woman with an abusive boyfriend, everyone would be up in arms about it and expressing sympathy. Instead, we have some people here who are questioning the writer’s manhood, calling him stupid, saying that he deserves this to happen to him, etc.

Arranged marriages are different by design and are an apples/oranges sort of situation.

(And as an aside, part of why arranged marriages tend to work is because both parties recognize that they can’t just assume “love will get us through” and start from a position of “We’re gonna have to work hard at this to make this…

Being in an emotionally abusive relationship isn’t growth.

...you realize saying it was statistically insignificant works against the point you’re trying to make, right?

Nobody deserves to be abused.

My opinion is best summed with a gif.

For the same reason why people go back to abusive parters. It can take a while to recognize how bad a situation is, and even then, you’ve got the emotional equivalent of the sunk-cost fallacy, feelings of self-worth and the hope that if you do the exact right things, everything will be better and this will be an…

Are you suggesting that those are significantly different circumstances or the same? “Engaged after a few months” vs “married after I think a year”

That would be just as sexist as the comment “never hit a woman.” Ideally, avoid violence as much as possible, but if a woman is outright attacking you, you use necessary force to subdue her. Just like with a man. Just avoid using excessive force, because then you are in the wrong.
