Depressing, isn’t it?

It’s not going to be a single perfect steak, though, because that would mean replicating the structure of actual muscle tissue, which is a much more difficult problem. There’s a reason they’re making burgers first — it’s much simpler to create something with a relatively uniform texture, like ground meat.

I used to live near a Ghirardelli factory outlet store, so I would buy cases of their candy for Halloween. The kids were impressed, and I didn’t mind eating the leftovers.

But I was somewhat disappointed that she stopped short of pointing her finger any farther than the “people” who stole or viewed the photos and the nebulous “Web sites” that published them. I was confused that Lawrence seemed unaware or unwilling to point out that her exclusive interview was being printed in Vanity…

Or maybe she did say something and they didn’t print it.

I think it makes a difference if it’s an established relationship and if, whatever the act is, it’s something you’ve done before. That doesn’t constitute consent, but I think it does mean that you can rely more on body language.

Many kitchens are used by multiple people of different heights. It’s hard to imagine how they could be optimized.

A bill like that with NO alcohol. How is that possible?

“Park,” as opposed to “Parks” is nearly always Korean.

It’s more than a rumor. Irrfan Khan was offered the role, but it’s not clear to me whether he turned it down or accepted it and then backed out.

Okay, I’m dating myself here, but I saw the original movie in the theater when it came out, for a friend’s 9th birthday party. I was such a wimpy kid that I spent most of the time with my hands over my eyes, so I don’t remember it too well. Haven’t seen the remake. But I’m definitely one of the terrified masses. In a…

In pretty much any movie where people die, I figure I’d be toast.

So, since you understand that taking that much time off is something very few people can do, maybe you should acknowledge that in your advice. The way it’s phrased is very off-putting.

One thing to keep in mind is that a surprising amount of it is self-satirizing. If you find it funny, consider the possibility that it is meant to be funny.

Yep, that advice is bizarrely tone deaf.

Not really, though I’ll admit, sometimes it seems that way.

On the one hand, I can understand the impulse to dismiss everything these guys say, especially since they have made a virtue of lying and manipulating women. On the other hand, I’m a little disturbed by the insistent implication in comments here that they are completely and fundamentally beyond redemption. It’s almost…
