Sometimes its pure malice. Sometimes it’s a panicked cover up for some stupidity on their part. Sometimes it’s a cry for help by troubled people.

It happened 36 years ago. I’m guessing a fair number of people in the thread weren’t even alive when it happened. The proverbial poster child for abducted children is probably Amber Hagerman, and there only because of the Amber Alert named after her, not her actual case.
And to be fair, child abductions by strangers aren’t really a thing, at least not nearly as much as you’d think from the media. A lot of “abducted” kids are really runaways, and kids that are abducted are mostly abducted by people they know, usually custody of the kid is part of a domestic dispute.
Enh, not after partnering with the community and publicizing it. If the father drops dead tomorrow and they take down the memorial next year, they’ll garner a ton of hate.
I can’t ask a corporation not to be a corporation. Chevron is not my friend, certainly. But I can appreciate that their strategy for dealing with this situation was humane and sensitive to the father and the community. If they decide goodwill is good pr, then I’ll take it.
Why are businesspeople who market themselves as non-hip, conservative, family values people crazy? Hipsters and feminists hardly have a lock on corporate bad behavior like sexual harassment or bullying.
Enh, it’s getting some positive reviews. The original show was a giant ball of goofiness, so I’m cutting the movie a lot of slack.
Maybe most women who identify as bisexual wind up with men because the dating pool of straight men is much larger than the pool of gay women in most areas, not even counting the prejudice against bisexual women that seems rampant in the lesbian community.
“I get that bisexual women get hella shit from both sides of the line...”
Bite me. I care, and I don’t even drive.
Heather can’t “force” Nintendo (not sure how a game company becomes a whole country) to do anything. But if Nintendo decides to try to make money selling games in the US, Nintendo games can be critiqued by US customers.
I don’t follow the fighting game scene, at all, and don’t even play Steet Fighter casually (Haven’t touched the game since arcade Street Fighter 2 days).
Yeah..I can’t say it’s a bad game, but just about every change they made...I don’t like. I bought it, tried to play it, and just bounced off of it hard.
I think Nantz is, in the Douglas Adams sense “mostly harmless”. In the realm of problematic things about college athletics, his tie thing ranks so low as to be fairly deep underground.
I like that it’s clear that she’s not some inhuman Terminator. She’s a good fighter and she wins her fights but she also takes a beating in the process. It’s obviously stylized movie fighting but there’s still some groundedness there.
You chose to reply to my reply to another person. My reply to that person was based explicitly on their premise of killing minors who made stupid decisions. If you inject yourself into the conversation and don’t disavow their original premise to disagree with my counter argument, then yeah, I’m assuming you agree…
And where do you draw the line? In the accident this post is about, no one was hurt. Do you want to advocate for executing minors for accidents where no one is seriously injured, random internet sociopath?
Why do you say that? Polian’s main complaint seems to be he thinks 16 million is too much to pay for a second round pick. He may turn out to be wrong, but the complaint itself seems reasonable.
