    The Trayvon Trial

    Yeah...The guy looks like a heavier version of all my wife's brothers. Also my wife calls the kids "little mexicans" when they make a mess. I need to tell her to stop being racist against our children.

    The Astronomy Thread

    I hope this isn't the case, but with the new theories about as to why humans evolved, it seems like it's a very narrow band of environmental factors that would produce intelligent life (Essentially environmental shifts too fast to physically adapt to, but not quite severe enough to kill minor...

    Pacific Rim

    From what I've read, it does. A nuke will drop these things no problem. In fact, the first few that get defeated were nuked. The problem was that most of our conventional weapons that reach the energy ranges that can actually hurt these things, are designed to inflict wide spread casualties...

    The Trayvon Trial

    I think what Cad is referring to is the fact that Zimmerman had wounds, and grass stains indicating he was on his back. While Trayvon had injuries to his hands indicating he was striking him. Zimmerman lacked these "offensive" injuries, indicating he never even attacked Trayvon back. Is that...

    Leisure Suit Larry reboot

    haha, me too. I had three games for it. Sim City, Sim Ant and some Star Trek game. Eventually though, using a super-secret boot disk method, I was able to play Xcom and Master of Magic, too (And I played those games for years, heh)

    League Of Legends

    I mostly jungle too. Was wondering, how many of you still get the Wriggles overall? (I guess Atrox has no mana, so it might be skewed a bit) But for most of my junglers with mana, I've swapped over to Ancient Golem. HP, 10% CDR, and early game mana regen are really nice. Not to mention I get...

    Pussification in America: Political Correctness is Gay

    No. I've read a lot of feminist work, but usually it's just to try and give me some perspective on, say, Marx/Hayek/Keynes (Any notable economist) who try to push everything we do through an economics perspective. I also read a lot of political/social commentary, like Hitchens, for the same...

    Pussification in America: Political Correctness is Gay

    Well, I would first start off as not comparing misandry to Freddy Kruger or some other boogeyman myth? That's theproblem. Even if they assume said misandry stems from other men, then it still exists. The person simply doesn't have the same "definition" of it as them (Which is a silly definition...

    Pussification in America: Political Correctness is Gay

    No, the article uses the "unassailable" logic that misandry is merely an extension of patriarchy. So all the bad things that affect men are the fault of men, just as the good things that affect men. That logic, for me, would work if I were to see, say, a feminist group protesting pink ribbons...

    Breaking Bad

    Yeah, in this context, I agree with you guys. It started as a man living "out" of his own life. He never accepted the Walt he became and he was hell bent on NOT dying as that Walt. So his goal has really always been to die as the man he "should" have been had he not sold gray matter (Emperor...

    Breaking Bad

    If the writer was interested in any social commentary--Walt should win unscathed. I have never understood the need, in cinema, to have the "bad guy" lose. I hate to tell these people, but the kingpin's, or the "big" "bad guys" rarely lose in the real world.

    The Trayvon Trial

    It is a very uncomfortable situation, no doubt. But as BoldW says, this situation has come up before--but it's usually domestic. A wife claims she killed her husband due to abuse (Middle of a fight, he's beating on her, she pulls a gun and pop), and gets off because it's self defense. Now, that...

    The Trayvon Trial

    See, these are fair points. I'd note though that the adversarial system kind of has a built in counter-balance to this, which is that the prosecutor should be attempting to make the Juror's see what you see. That's why both sides are presented. If the defense tries to trip her up by essentially...

    Mad Men

    Seriously this. I was totally expecting a big reveal, especially with all the "death" symbolism around Megan. I mean, yeah, now we can say it symbolized the death of their relationship, and maybe her feelings for him--but I seriously thought this was going to pan out into maybe an abortion...

    What's the story behind your Rerolled name?

    Had to make a bunch of names for a D&D Campaign, this guy was a warrior in it who ended up kicking ass. Picked the name in EQ for my warrior there and have used it ever since.

    Mad Men

    Well, they don't ever have an actual conversation where it's decided they won't have kids. There are three "kids" conversations, I think. One is in the car when Don is drunk and saying he wants to make a baby with her, and she laughs it off, I forget where the other was but Megan avoids the...

    Mad Men

    Yeah, I agree with this. And the rest are all fair points/opinions. I do tend to see Megan in a harsher light, as you said, but that's partially because I think she's an exceptional person--and I really don't see exceptional people "falling" into things. Exceptional people tend to make their...

    How do you prefer your steak?

    Medium rare--I like just a tiny bit of dark red in the center and mostly pink throughout. I find rare to be too "soggy"--so while it's more flavorful, the fucking texture just completely turns me off. Medium rare still has most of the juices, but no "soggy"/"very soft" interior. I cook steak...

    Mad Men

    Don fell in love with what Megan broadcast--when he realized there was far more to her,his own ghosts prevented him from growing the relationship. Is it Megan's fault? No. Is it Don's? I'd say no. It was just bad luck that these two people with very compatible facades, had completely...

    Mad Men

    The flaws are everything she did along the way that you left out. I'm pretty sure I could make Don look like a saint if I dropped a lot of his methods and simply told some superficial connect the dots of his history (Poor boy who boostraped himself for poverty and abuse, who recieved a purple...

    Mad Men

    No one said that was a flaw? Show me where that was said. Being good at those things allows her to build facades in order to realize her ambitions--being good at them is not the flaw. It'showthey are used. Don was not flawed when he sold cars, despite using the same abilities Don Draper used...

    Mad Men

    That's not what she said. "You want to be alone with your screwed up kids."-Megan "Don't say that"-Don "I love them to death. I used to feel pity for them, but now I realize we're all in the same boat." (Hides her face at the start of saying this.) "I know you're upset. But I'm going to be...

    Mad Men

    Yall are 100% out of your mind if you think Megan is an ideal woman. Either that or you're forever in need of new pussy and are completely blind to any flaws a woman has because of it. See, I can do it to. Having an honest, and objective discussion about someone's flaws=/=laying the blame of...

    Mad Men

    Nope. The first conversation where he learned something about Megan went like this. Talking about his glocoat ad--she came in to him,after he told her to leave, and began praising his work and asked if he could show it to her. "Why did you move here?"--Don. "Well, first of all, it's New...

    Mad Men

    Bro, she totally did (And ALL people do, to an extent.). Did she care about Don? Probably, yeah. I don't think anyone is saying she was a complete gold digger who was only superficially in love to get her connections. But she did play up the qualities he enjoyed, while hiding what she wanted to...

    Under the Dome-CBS

    After the leather jacket guy went from professing his love, to hunting other humans while menacingly flipping his switch blade in the most cliche manner possible, I turned it off. I guess they could explain him going from a little odd to a fucking psychopath in ten seconds due "The Dome"...

    The Venture Bros.

    I think he was though. Last season and this one, so far, while still extremely funny, I think have lost something. Brock was able to be the straight man on the show (Kind of like an audience member trapped in that fucked up world.), while simultaneously being every bad ass cliche in the book...

    Don likes advertising when he sells a product, he hates advertising where he sells an ad Didn't see this interview before, but I'm glad I wasn't misreading this. This was makes Don's ads really great, he cares about the product, not the advertising. Also like how he intended to show Don is so...

    Mad Men

    Yeah. Joan's share of the company, which was 5%, was worth over a million dollars--and the company isbiggernow (Even if it's split more.) Even if Dononlyowned 10%, he's looking at the equivalent of 12+ million by today's standards (And that's a really conservative estimate)...Also, Don got...

    Mad Men

    If you watch the episode where Duck tries to become president, it sets the tone for why Don loves a specific form of advertising but hates "Duck's" or "big business" kind. He says "I'm here to sell products, NOTadvertising." Don likes advertising when he is selling what he sells a product, he...

    What's shitty is how Roger didn't defend Don--and Roger's been in the same position, with his whole Japanese hating bullshit (Where he blew their motorcycle account and this was when their company was far more vulnerable.) and so has Joan (Avon, which is bigger than Hershey and Joan jumped...

    Gun control

    I think he meant that if your for gun control after the newton shooting, and haven't given a shit about it until then--you most certainly are a racist. That's because more black children die in Chicago every year than were killed in Newton. So if it really was about rage "for the children", we...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Why? Shit we butcher them by the millions and devour them whole, sometimes in gruesome ways (Fried Chicken is a Chicken covered in it's own unfertilized sexual cells--yeah.) So why not grow them with organs and harvest them? Is that somehow more disgusting than forcing them to breed, raising...
