Nazis were elected representatives, the SS was enforcing laws drafted by elected representatives, and their judiciary upheld what they did.

The analogy still breaks down, because cost matters. Magazines are designed as replaceable parts. Gas tanks aren’t. For cost comparison purposes:

Wait. Fark is still online??? Woah.

Nice one. Reminds me of this: http://www.theonion.com/article/us-dept-of-retro-warns-we-may-be-running-out-of-pa-873

Here at the bottom of this beautiful thread, I want to say: I love you guys.

Nice response. I was going to say that “@I have no account...” was conflating “value” and “worth”, as well as not paying attention to the contexts where they matter, but your specific story made the point better.

Glutinous? Did you mean gluttonous?

Sarlacc ain’t evil. Sarlacc keeps peeps alive for 1,000 years! The slowly digesting in pain and torment is incidental.

Triple bonus points for leaving off Scotland, and it looks like Wales is off, too. Nice.

And this is precisely why it matters about how people who oppose Trump carry themselves. Let the DNC continue to shoot themselves in the foot.

Your references are wasted outside of io9, my good man. Well done, anyway.

The town was not founded by Thomas Jefferson. The University of Virginia was.

I sympathize, but I believe you’re incorrect. Think of it like this: the “you” that Randall is talking to in the xkcd comic is *not* the President of the United States using an official communication tool of that office, as claimed by that office. He can’t have it both ways. Now, he is using @realDonaldTrump mostly,…

I loves me some Toy Story, but I still feel like it’s got a twisted agenda where the supposed villain is the one who plays and thinks creatively. He uses toys outside of their intended milieu! What is Pixar trying to say about creativity there?

Anybody else thinking of this:
