If you've got the money and the system to run it, this is the undisputed zeitgeist game of the moment. A few friends I didn't even know played pc games all ended up getting it, so we've got regular four man squads to play with, and it's a great time. We're a bunch of old friends, and it's really fun to just be…

Can anyone explain to me what that is? I've been seeing posts about it for a while now, what are we talking about? Are we gonna lose this wonderful community (among the least awful on the internet), or do we all just have to register a new account?

Nathan For You is like looking at your own newborn child. It's so pure and so beautiful and perfect. The world will ruin it, and you know this, but for just a brief little span of time you get to look at purity, perfect uncorrupted potential.

According to Wikipedia they were boiling it regardless as far back as 1189. I don't know if that's an every time thing, though

Oh word? That makes a lot more sense, tar always struck me as kind of useful (and hard to source? I don't know how to make tar) for people to be wasting like that. A really really cursory google search seems to show that people were still boiling it first, even originally with Richard I recommending that for some…

Yeah, I wish we had video of this practice. I read the wiki, but it doesn't really give you a good feel for how the thing actually went down. Is everybody just jeering, or are they throwing stones? Are they lifting and dropping the rail in order to fuck dude's crotch up? It says this fellow died, so there had to…

Great job! This site has some of my favorite writing on a variety of topics, it's nice to see you folks get the accolades you deserve!

We may find out

Oh yeah, that's gonna turn into "so much for the tolerant left" within seconds

They seem to be more into watching grown men scream at video games

Rocko aged a lot better than ren and stimpy, I think.

I was in Antigua recently! Cool little ex colonial seat, old churches and cobblestones everywhere, it's surrounded by volcanoes and coffee plantations, and it has a fucking ludicrous Taco Bell. I cannot overstate how weird this Taco Bell is.

I feel like I've been in the middle of rewatching that show every minute since I finished it

Sounds boring

Yeah exactly. If it's not weird to eat something weird, that's a good thing

All you really need to do is look at which foods picky eaters gravitate toward. Just about every time it's going to be french fries or chicken fingers and other super unintimidating stuff that they were raised on. You don't see many four hundred pound shutins who will only eat a Thai curry or something spicy like…

Congratulations, you're taking the first steps toward creating a human that isn't a total bummer to go out to eat with.

The point is that it doesn't have to be. This whole "kids food" thing strikes me as a very, very modern idea, and it seems to be mostly coming from marketers. For most of history, people were feeding their kids what they ate. A frozen piece of breaded chicken with spongebob on the package isn't some kind of…

I completely agree, you're doing a disservice to young minds by fueling them with the same two or three things everywhere you go. I have a friend with a pile of kids, and I remember being totally blown away seeing him prepare them the exact same thing he was preparing for the grown folks. When I was growing up, we…

If you’ve got a computer that can run it and some of your friends do too, player etc’s Battlegrounds is excellent right now. Every round is its own little story, no two are totally alike, and it will have you absolutely yelling cusses into a microphone. The hype train will slow down at some point, so I encourage…
