No no, note the use of "would". As in: normally I would be skeptical of someone saying it's better than all the rest so early, except I agree that it is better and think there's legitimacy to the statement instead of it just being hype.

So I just got my hair cut to the shortest it's ever been in my life and my roommate suggested I look at pictures of Emma Watson for ideas on how to style it. LOVE HER. So much. And I love my short Emma Watson-attempt hair.

Now you got me thinking how it could be done... let's see. If I were to make a handicapped doll, I'd make sure the disability was not used as a selling point. The doll would emphasize all the typical doll features and then once the kid got the box they'd find one of the accessories was something like a medical alert

Handicapped dolls would be awesome to see... assuming they were done right and weren't just a gimmick to include hospital-themed accessories.

My favorite doll when I was a kid was a black doll. You could take her into the pool with you and her hair changed colors in the water. She'd often be the only thing with non-white skin color at the pool. I loved her and my mom said I got a lot of weird looks. I was pretty color-ignorant at that age. Our neighbor

I would argue that you're just being a fanboy and to give it time... but I do love the way they've got their privacy settings organized. It's so, so easy to use. So yeah. It's better than Facebook. Simple, clean, streamlined... everything I hated about Facebook is not a problem on G+.

Ooo, wow, that sucks. The worst I've had was Creepy College Guy watching me fall asleep at a group camping trip and he got pulled aside and talked to by large and scary friends for that. Best to be careful in your situation then. I'm hoping that Google does a good enough job with privacy so that these sorts of

I think it'll vary from person to person. I wouldn't dare comment on a disability in a first meeting because that could promote the 'otherism' of people with disabilities that Aaron is giving a big 'fuck you' towards (rightfully so). But if it came up in conversation and I knew the person and was comfortable enough

I'm taking the risk of using my real name this time. I've never used it on Facebook, but I'm taking the plunge with Google+. Google's settings make more sense to me and it's easy to use and see what information is viewable by what people, so I can keep my location and other information hidden from the general

And I thought I hated the original Looney Toons...

"And to think, all my bros said that taking creative writing in college would never get me laid!"

I agree. If they're doing it for the lulz, do it against a group that 90% of the population would don their troll hats for without hesitation. If they're doing it to expose an injustice, or evidence of corruption, etc - well, they're doing it wrong.

I don't understand why they chose a model that's going to limit mobile device growth. Who in their right mind would get more 3g devices if it also means it's going to push them into a more expensive data plan?

Well, monetary systems have worked long before literacy was considered a norm, so... that and preset buttons. Not as flexible as a standard ATM obviously, but it sounds like it'll work to me.

Remove the 'gay' from those statements about therapy and insert any other undesirable human trait and you've got pretty much the standard church response. That's just how they try and help people. I can't really condemn them for that... if someone believes that homosexuality is truly, truly bad then they're probably

Thank you for the offer! JCulp got me an invite, so I'm now enjoying the spoils.

Thank you! Now to convince all my friends to jump ship with me. :D

I am amazed at the amount of SCO. All the stores I shop with are designed so that it is physically impossible to go over the item limit without stuff overflowing onto the floor so the only people using them have less than ten items, the weight errors are responsive enough that I can move my bags around and it'll

I was just telling my mother yesterday that if she really wants to get in on the social networking thing to wait until Google+ gets bigger. She's not keen on the idea of having a Facebook account at all. Sadly, that won't happen anytime soon because I can't even get on. A friend said he sent me an invite but I've
