    State of the Union

    There comes a point where it's just angst and manufactured outrage. What the fuck do you think he's actually going to do without the discretion of Congress? I mean what the fuck do you ACTUALLY think he's going to do? Quasi-legally spy on our allies? Congress already funds that...

    State of the Union

    Technically he's pretty much allowed to do whatever he doesn't get impeached or assassinated for doing. It's a sad truth, proven by Kennedy, Nixon, and Clinton. I had hoped that the one great thing to come out of Obama would be reversing that trend, but that didn't happen. I had no hopes...

    State of the Union

    Well, what the fuck legislation is he going to pass in this coming year? To be perfectly fair... what does he need Congress for? To tell him he's not allowed to bomb Syria? Congress did manage to find a budget compromise that lasts past his term. The ACA will be revised without his direct...

    Well, as soon as you realize it you have a responsibility to stop fucking her. If you have a responsbility to tell her husband that's a bit of a different question. You probably don't in this case. If you've been fucking her for a year and he doesn't see it then he doesn't want to see it.

    ... it does. LOL. I hope req at least got some cash money for that. I mean it's funny, but Brad probably would have paid him if he'd approached the situation correctly. Which would make it even funnier.

    Ender's Game (2013)

    From what I remember, and it's been a while since I read the book, it wasn't even so much hinted at. It was flat out explained that that's why Andrew Wiggin was even allowed to be born as a 3rd child. The children were engineered / bred for genius and while Peter was unsuitable for being too...

    House of Cards

    It's fourth wall, but we all know what he means. Those asides are indeed what makes the show special. It makes the show a character drama (which are interesting stories) instead of a political drama (which are soap operas for men).

    The Robots are Coming (DoD to replace one fourth of soldiers with bots by 2030)

    It's difficult to imagine a way to make our race more prone to resource wars, so containing the devestation those wars cause by whatever means seems like a good thing. How could that not be a good thing? Of course like all great technological innovations it will require a rigorous testing...

    Contest of wills, he's basically fucking with you. The psuedopsych way to say it is that he's establishing a sense of self and going through separa... you get the idea. You can starve him out, you can forcefeed him. Neither will send him screaming to a shrink in 15 years to talk shit about...

    It's a lot of little things adding up. Their content flow is pretty janky in spots. Some spots will give you 7+ concurrent quests, other parts will give you 2. Part of that is the state of the beta. Quests either bugging or breaking, entire zones lagging out and fucking with the content in...

    Oh man, you really did. The lost innocence of youth. I've had full grown women ask to watch me piss. And it's not watersports stuff. It's not even sexytime. I kinda want to go back to the time in my life where I thought watching a girl pee would be worth watching. Reality can never...

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

    #2-1 is slightly more disturbing So you're saying that I need to eat food as opposed to like eating lumber or paint chips? Good to know. They also seem to either be slightly confused about or misrepresenting the roles of water and temperature in regards to infection. Sucking on popsicles can...

    Yeah, grim's right. I hadn't watched the ones past the christmas episode yet. The newer ones are doing more with the kids. Some of it is genuinely funny. Manny: Now I'm not proud of what happened next. Luke: I am. Heh. Heh. Heh. Heh. Edit: And they had a sweet moment with Alex...

    Our drama requires too much context. And it's kinda lame drama even with context. I mean... one of the former admins was a gold digger? That shit doesn't rate, even if it's funny to us. Now a 50 year old balding slum lord who plays WoW with 9 computers and makes a webpage devoted to...

    And I don't think he's cared since the movie Sabrina. But if some dude is gonna give you a couple of million dollars every year you'd be kinda stupid to say, "Nah. I'd rather just sit on my ranch and fly my helicopters this month". I mean that probably gets boring too. After a couple of...

    I remember a beta post directly refuting that. The hitching in beta was because of excessive calls to your hard drive. I mean you're probably right about some of it stemming from design -- but some of those issues were more along the lines a team that was simply out of their depth.
