My reply was meant to be condescending. If I were to post about whatever you do for a living, make a bunch of generalized assumptions about the intentions of people who work in that field, without knowing any of the real reasons involved for such changes, I would expect such a reply as well.

Well, you're just wrong is all. Retouchers will distort all the time - ctrl-shift-x. Maybe there's armpit fat, maybe we want to make her look thinner, its all in a direct effort to make a *good photo*. I couldn't care less about vanity, my effort is to minimize distractions, and if armpit fat is distracting, im going…

You have to do so much retouching in Photoshop because the profession is crowded with hacks who don't have any skill, intuition or perfectionist drive that photographers of old had.

You're naiveté is adorable. I assure you, the retouching pointed out in this shoot is nothing special. As a former retoucher for a large(ish) studio, I routinely did more than "fix exposure" and "paint out wardrobe malfunctions". You've never retouched before in your life, so why pretend like you know what goes into a…

Because literally every pro portrait is photoshopped. Every. Single. One.

I met my wife on okcupid, and I actually thought she wasn't interested after the first date. And by the end of the first week, I was convinced I ruined everything. If it's early stages, best to let simple mistakes and not being able to read people via text messages slide.

I cannot wait for this game, I just fear they're getting too ambitious. This is a developer who last did mobile games like Joe Danger - now don't get me wrong, JD is a great, great kids game, but it's not a procedural star citizen. It's a whole nother level. I hope they can pull it off and aren't falling into the trap…

I don't know how anyone can still claim TLG will ever see the light of day. It's not coming out. Source: Common sense.

I'm like, ten of those things he gunned down, and I thought that video was fucking hilarious.

They shouldn't come inside without protection.

Wow, a guy who has an explanation that's actually believable for once. Congrats on the kid!

It was MUTO, massive unidentified terrestrial organism

DONT WORRY GUYS IT WAS JUST FOR A FRIEND'S (WHO IS GAY) SCHOOL PROJECT, WE'RE STILL COOL RIGHT?

I think the public's right to a safe blood supply is a higher priority than a gay man's right to donate. I know - it's fucked up, it absolutely is discrimination, but not all discrimination is done with ill intentions. This seems like the government taking all available precautions to produce safe blood, not the…

Early access needs to come with a disclaimer. I thought it obvious, but it should basically say buyer beware, this game isn't finished and there's a chance it might not be. Established early access games like DayZ and KSP we're all pretty confident will eventually be feature complete, and there's no need to trash the…

Don't forget completely ripping off the choppers from Avatar, of all movies.

He's a great actor, but that dialogue at the start is just awful and it sounds like he knows it.

First of all, I have to believe everyone there would get their money back. Second, wouldn't you want to say you were there, like 20 years from now?

It was the clippers font.

Then Osbourne hops into a Shrike, a speedy, floating vehicle that will undoubtedly draw comparisons to Ghosts in Halo thanks to how it moves about. As he speeds forward, we catch a glimpse of more of the landscape—rivers cutting between mountains, icy greenery. He revs up a mountain with the Shrike, arriving at a more…
