Me glad in retrospect that when me got to college, me hung around people who were high before me had any access to drugs. Because talking to stoners really made me not want to smoke up, and talking to someone high on coke really not make me want to use coke. Me was pretty naive about heroin use, to point where me…

I mean, I’m still living in a reality where calling someone a “social justice warrior” is considered an insult. That would be like calling your least favorite person a “popular, attractive local hero” and then smugly smiling about how much you just burned that person.

You don’t understand how insurance works do you? You can’t get insurance to the older people without reducing the overall risk by also including younger/healthier people.

It is pretty sad how bad its gotten. 61 comments on Reasonable Discussions an hour after it goes live? Yeesh.

A picture is worth a thousand words. Ideally, the same thousand words that have disappeared from the comments.

Don’t cry for them... they’re already dead.

Fuck THIS Shit, amirite?

Speak for yourself!

Old AV Club comments section:

So I made 100 jars of tomato jam on labor day. Nothing says having a day off like a labor intensive project. They came out delicious, though.

Well when there are no discussions really going on, and it’s difficult to even find an article and load what few comments there are, it sort of feels pointless.

It’s a lot easier to keep up with everyone’s comments when there are fewer than 10 of them, so there’s that!

“Thank you for making our site’s community vibrant, intelligent, and fun!”

I’ve been trying to make a good faith effort, but I find that I visit and comment less than before.
