Palum, I agree with that too. Like I said, both positions were understandable, just not the notion that being exposed to a stranger for 2 hours was some kind of hardship. I hate people, but I wouldnt be "uncomfortable" picking up a stranger for my mom. I might say no, but I wouldnt be all...

I hear ya to some extent, Debra's annoying but I have to confess I find her kind of hot. Her character sucks but if she just STFU she wouldnt be abrasive. Skyler on the other hand, no.

I dunno, I'm torn on this one. On the one hand, making someone take a taxi or shuttle from the airport is a huge dick move. Thats what people who dont know anyone in the city they just landed in have to do. If a friend or family member lands at your airport and you make them take a taxi, youre...

WTF, that makes no sense. She is one of my most hated TV characters of all time, but I genuinely thought that was intentional. She's right up there with Joffrey on GOT, did an a really excellent job of being hateworthy. If the show runners genuinely intended her to be sympathetic they failed...

I explained it several times. Its a flawed system because two drivers approach the roundabout at the same time, there is no set system for right of way. Its whoever enters the roundabout first. So its a giant fucking game of chicken. This means no one waits their turn like civilized human...

lol how did I miss this. Hoss won the thread on page 2 but we missed it and kept going :(

So in response to my post, which you quoted, in which I stated that the problem with roundabouts is caused by the fact that no one stops. And in response you say roundabouts are better because in some scenario they mean fewer cars have to stop. Truly, a dizzying intellect.

Boy youre doing a really great job of disproving the argument that 4 way stops take less time. An argument no one ever made. But you are defeating it handily. Good show sir. Roundabouts are an inferior design because no one stops. Please tell me more about how people get through a roundabout...

You are right that sometimes people are dumb at 4 way stops. How to approach 4 way stops? 1. Come to a complete stop 2. Whoever stops first goes first 3. when in doubt, the car on the right has right of way Simple, civilized, only delays you for a matter of seconds. People are idiots but I'd...

Oh you found a website that agrees with you I am totally convinced, despite all logic and experience to the contrary this is my I am totally convinced face

This is a bad argument and youd have to do some kind of statistical gymnastics to find support for it. At a stop sign, accidents happen while traveling 0-10 mph as you start back up. At a roundabout, if an accident happens, it happens while accelerating at full speed because the most aggressive...

Yeah, thats a good way of putting it. I value fairness over moving maximum cars per hour. Any solution will be a tradeoff between those goals and I favor fairness. Interestingly I have heard the same argument about shitty asian cultural practices of refusing to wait in line and instead using...

Naw man I'm a steely eyed killer like everyone else on the internet, I'm just asking for a friend who isnt quite as aggressive. If you think relying on variation in aggressiveness among drivers is a good and reasonable method for determining who has right of way in an intersection we'll just...

When the cars are traveling in intersecting paths? Yes, the solution that has the cars stopping is preferable to the solution that has the cars not stopping. Whoever is in the roundabout has right of way over whoever is entering the roundabout, so whoever gets in first has right of way. It...

Is this a trick question? In a 4 way stop everyone is equal, and civilized behavior is required. Everyone stops briefly and takes their turn. In a roundabout whichever motherfucker guns it and gets into the roundabout first has right of way and doesnt have to wait his turn in line. Every...

LOL this discussion is cracking me up. I have a relatively low n compared to most of you cassanovas. But even my n has been sufficient to clarify this issue. Chicks who use tampons get stinky pussies, chicks who dont use tampons dont have stinky pussies. I havent seen any correlation with weight...

Lets be clear that resistance to flat earth denial of objective reality is a pretty different thing that resistance to anything about God.

I like how he includes "forming a perfectly round object" as if that was some kind of mystery. The rest is the usual boring anthropic principle nonsense, but the idea that formation of round objects is some kind of mystery just cracks me up for some reason.

100% of people I know who dont use social media call it one of the best decisions they've made. Myself included. 100% of people I know who do use social media complain about stuff they deal with on social media.

Probably not a real concern at this point but to clarify, you are quoting the rate for a white infant. They practically pay you to adopt black infants. (its different in every state but some are so cheap the tax breaks literally approach the costs of adoption)

Just checking in to point and laugh. Oh, the movie where they had such blatant disregard for the source material they decided to cast a black dude as the gunslinger... it flopped? This is my surprised face. I'm only trying to figure out -- from now on, when ass backwards casting decisions make...

This is awesome. Your post reads exactly like someone making a parody of what a SJW would say. "Its <current year>!" I'm gonna deduct 1 VSP for failing to use the phrase "you're a white male", and 1 VSP for failing to use racist/sexist/homophobic/cisnormative. But otherwise this was a really...

first you advocate spaces over tabs (cause multiple invisible characters instead of a single invisible character totally makes sense) Now vi instead of nano? Yall just enjoy pain. Its the only explanation.

/brofist putty is right next to Chrome and R in my my frequently used shortcuts. Putty for life

So's my dad. Wish we could sign up for experimental treatments like this; this sounds like a really great concept with low risks and promising early results in clinical trials.

I'm constantly surprised by the number of coworkers I encounter who have never been shocked by household current and think its some kind of instant death. I mean, every house is wired with this stuff. How you get to age 20+ and never experience a taste of household current? I guess I'm a little...

An eyebrow model? WTF Do the brits just have a thing for oddly large, dark, and shaggy eyebrows? I am genuinely confused here. She's otherwise fairly average for an actress and I obviously wouldnt kick her out of bed but her eyebrows are freakish.

So when they cast a white superhero, they're all "lets just pick a good actor regardless of whether they look like the character". "Its all about the acting chops". Then when they cast a black superhero, theyre all "lets get a black actor". OK, got it.

This is correct advice from someone who actually seems to know what spanking is and how its supposed to be used. Like your parents, I've only spanked my kids a very small number of times. A few spankings early in life teach lessons that let the kid avoid much greater pain later in life. Which...

Its literally the most important thing to teach your kids: to overcome your emotions, not be ruled by them. Its literally what distinguishes a worthwhile human being from the masses. I dont understand your use of the word "gross" in this context, but its clear you disagree. "Oh no dont teach...

This thread is a shitshow, and I aint touching it, but this made me laugh. Everyone's feelings are without merit or worth. The moment a person first recognizes this is the moment they qualify as a full-fledged human being.

Of all the random shit to get upset about, this is just bizarre. By extension I'm guessing you are also enraged that people shop at Walmart instead of supporting shitty local mom and pops? I'm an angry guy and can appreciate a rant but lol at white knighting electricians unions.

Considering your self declared proclivity for buttholes and weird sexual shit, I dont know why this would surprise you. Did you think most straight people do things with funnels in buttholes? No judgement, but can we agree youre not representative of the average straight person when it comes...

Wow, Id genuinely forgotten that. How fucking stupid. At least in this case its the author being a SJW idiot instead of Hollywood casting idiocy. Right? Wasnt shadow moon black in the book too?

spanking is not beating. Spanking is not violence. You people are delusional and projecting.

This is such feelzy bullshit I'm actually a little surprised to see it on FOH. There is a place for physical discipline. Done properly, its not even a little bit abusive or damaging -- it is positive and loving.

You misspelled "obvious, inarguable, and correct".

Damn it. My only complaint is if this keeps up, I am going to have to re read the book!

I have no criticism of Emilia herself but itd be swell if the makeup artists had taken a moment to look at an actual blond person prior to dying her hair. Every scene shes in I'm like "why are there two giant black hairy caterpillars where her eyebrows should be?" To be clear this is not a...

Wow, fuck this. The only comparison I can make in terms of completely ignoring the source material would be the old Dune movie.
