It's really just Samsung's product-development style: they have so many engineers working, and such wide budgets, that they develop a lot of products, throw them at the market, and see what sticks. Sure, the majority are failures, but occasionally something comes along (read: the Note series) that sticks, and Samsung…

Dude is always first on reviewing this type of tech. It's kind of astounding, and I've found most of his reviews pretty right on and extremely extensive.

100% the production's fault for hiring her. This girl and her infinite chances. Meanwhile, actual talented black actresses and actors struggle to find work.

That's kinda my point. If you're someone who eats chicken when you could be eating something that doesn't require an animal to die, throwing shade at someone for killing a chicken for spiritual purposes (which in my eyes at least is a much more significant reason than 'it tastes better than black beans or broccoli'),…

Florida Panhandle here, and agreed. Too much of the time people view each others differences as reasons to shun or alienate each other, rather than coming together to learn from each other and grow.

Fair enough, see, I never even got to know that much, though I was curious about it (I'm an avid lover of the study of any and all religions because of the diverse bridges they act as to show how we relate to the divine/that which is larger or more universal than us/etc), as we broke up not long after dating due to…

Aside from that, Santeria is an offshoot of Catholicism anyhow, from what I understand, akin to the way Kabbalah is an offshoot of Judaism. Is it darker and more mysterious? Maybe to some. I dated a girl about ten years ago who practiced Santeria. It's not that big a deal. It's not like there's a whole lot of…

I had a women doing her nails next to me one time. Both polish remover and application. The guy in the row behind me thought it was a gas attack.

Once, in its early infancy before everyone knew it was a hate group, my mother bought me Chik-Fil-A at a mall food court. I was only allowed to have soda at the mall food court, so I sucked down my Coke with gusto.

I popped open the lid of the now-empty cup to chew the ice and noticed something dark at the bottom of…

I can't say that that's comforting Fluter.

I had a supervisor at work once who relentlessly harped about productivity (to the point of timing our bathroom trips) who would clip his toenails in his cubicle.

I had a guy tickling his son on the train one time.... for the whole ride. I mean yeah your kid is cute we get it, but I don't want to hear him screaming and gigling non stop.

A flight that leaves late at night, where passengers usually sleep. The lights are turned off in the cabin, so people can sleep more easily.

The worse passenger situations I ever encountered were

My now-husband, then-fiance, and I chose an antique (1920s) diamond ring from an estate sale specifically because we did not want to feed the DeBeers beast. In point of fact, all the diamonds I've ever owned (which really isn't that many) are second-hand — the ring my mom gave me was re-set from a ring she received as…

I used to work in this business, so take all this with a grain of salt.

I'm just gonna get my future hypothetical fiance a simple band of gold, forged in the fire's of Mt. Doom with parts of my soul infused into it, and if that's not good enough for her, well than she's not the Dark Lady for me.

Now if only they would apply the same ethics to the kids who make their shoes.
