    Teen sues parents for support & tuition

    If this stupid whore becomes non-emancipated, doesn't that mean she's under the control of her parents? I.e., here's community college, you're working at mcdonalds now, and we're buying clothes from goodwill.

    House cleaning services

    I'm a bit of a minimalist, and generally clean up after myself. 1700 SF, 40 bucks once a week. Kitchen, any left over pots/pans from day before, bathrooms/toilets, dusting, vacuuming, mopping, basically putting things in order to a clean "baseline". Spends about 3 hours here. Occasionally if...

    Arrow

    If you haven't accepted the Lance stupidity by now, I encourage you to never watch a Superman movie. At a certain point you have to get over it. Considering how good the show is, I just accept it now where it bugged me before. I thought this episode was good.

    Wizardhawk's memorial thread (a cautionary tale of dental care and garlic)

    I don't understand all the garlic hate. The garlic-for-infection remedy is actually pretty well established, as well as the science behind it. It's a far cry from gargling peroxide/bleach. I think I'm getting a wart on my hand, and I'm trying the garlic remedy while waiting for my Dr. appt.

    Godzilla (2014)

    When will we learn that there's no point in us firing small arms at a monster like that? Esp after nukes apparently did not work. What we need is some giant robots controlled by two mind-melded people (but don't use your sword unless it's a last resort). P.S. This looks good, plus I'll...

    Brooklyn Nine-Nine

    As far as 30 minute comedy/sitcoms go, I've done a 180 on this. First few shows I wasn't into it, but it's gotten better. What else are my choices, though? Modern Family? Two and a half men? Primetime Network comedy this is the top atm. Take that as you will.

    House of Cards

    He definitely lost more in S2 than S1. In S1 he was a relative "unknown" (i.e. low key minority whip). He had to burn a lot of political bridges to gain the presidency (which was season two, where as in season 1 he was building them). Towards then end of S2 we got multiple people mentioning...

    New Tonight Show/Late Night Talk Show News/Review Thread

    What's with Seth's studio? It looks like they had $200 in the budget for furniture/decorations. Other than that, he "read" his monologue too much. Didn't have that relaxed comedian way of delivering the punchlines. I'm willing to give him some time, but the first show didn't impress me at all.

    Comcast Agrees to Buy Time Warner Cable

    Netflix alone accounts for 30% of internet traffic? That's insane. I hope that's just in the US - still an impressive number.

    Knights Of Badassdom - (Dinklage - Glau) finnally being released, but with drama

    Try watching Dorkness Rising, which was made for, as far as I can tell, a budget of a couple hundred bucks, and then compare to this unfortunate abomination.

    New Tonight Show/Late Night Talk Show News/Review Thread

    Kimmel sucks as a host. The few times I've watched, his jokes aren't funny or delivered well, and he's horrible at talking with his guests. Ferguson is hit or miss, but he comes off as drunk every night. I didn't like Fallon at first, but I think he grew into it. His bits are always funny...

    House of Cards

    While they did tend to hammer it a bit much, I think this season did a good job of Money vs. Power. Like Remy said, power is fleeting, money hangs around. I didn't notice this in season 1, but did anyone else notice Frank doing the Hw thing? hwip, hwere, etc? I figured it was him trying to...

    I haven't watched the british version, but it is called House of Cards. I'm hoping S3/4 is all about his downfall at the hands of someone just like him...Maybe the Secretary of State lady?

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The series is called a Song of Ice and Fire, not Game of Thrones, and started out way more Fantasy than intrigue with the introduction of all the fantasy elements - white walkers, valyrian steel, history of dragons, worgs, direwolves, etc. He moved away from those elements en lieu of the "game"...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    First divorce was completely amicable (once it settled). Married young, moved for work, she wanted to be with her family because mine are kind of assholes, but I had a career path (at time anyway), so she moved back and I stayed. We text each other every couple days, she's come to visit a few...

    The only people that should have a reasonable expectation of privacy are tech security experts. No one else should be able to send private E-Mails or make private phone calls to their wives, because terrorists. Hasn't that been your stances since Day 1, Chaos? You have nothing to hide and...

    Because only rich people can afford it. If it's covered by insurance, then everyone ends up paying for it and rates increase by the magnititude of their, and every other pharma's, greed. In the end this model does not save money on healthcare. Instead of spending 30% of our income on...

    So you were rooting for the guys supplying air to the three-tittied martians in Total Recall? That kind of company is A-OK with you? That's what you're advocating. Hey, if someone can bottle up all the air, well, I guess we'll have to pay for it or die. Oh Well.

    Plenty of companies that provide public services are regulated, as they generally are monopolies, or with very little competition. They don't stop providing their services or expanding, and other companies still enter the markets. What exactly is their ROI here? By any measure 10% is...

    Compared to the majority of posters in this thread (and my argumentative nature), one may consider me conservative. But arbitrary pricing while holding a monopoly on a product isn't a workable capitalistic model either - never mind the actual societal value of such a breakthrough.

    In a year, won't we be able to order some generics from India for $30? I have no problem with drug companies making money, but I do have an issue with what amounts to a monopoly on it, especially considering what a huge world-wide potential this has. What if Polio vaccines costs the...
