199,401 | I feel like those things are feminine when you consider church influences about dress and family styles. You can also consider the fact that Athena was a woman and most teachers are women so there’s a reference of education there. Taking care of health in nutrition (worrying about weight and appearance) is often considered feminine. Most men I ever knew did not care... and still don’t.
Goals/aspirations/intuition have to do with female empowerment and the current, ever-evolving idea of feminism in itself which is a movement started by women to equalize the opportunities of men and women alike. I think this is a great response and I think this person idealizes femininity in a modern yet historic way. | I also wanted to add that you clipped fragments of my sentences and called them “word salad.” You essentially took pieces of my statement and made your own in a very manipulated, botched attempt to sound intelligent.

I’ve been trying to get the idea flying that we should own a communal area or home where everyone can retire to together so that we can pool resources for services like a nurse.
Having a regular house call nurse for 1-2 people seems pretty costly, but when that’s suddenly 6-8 people being supported by 3 major families, it looks way more feasible.
None of my parents gen are going for the idea even though they all have irresponsibly retirement accounts. | China has been an economic powerhouse off and on for millennia. It is on an upswing, but it can falter as easily as it started.

Edit: The comment to this reply was deleted before I could post a response. I'm posting it here anyways in hopes that it gets seen by OP:
Catholicism and Buddhism both acknowledge that life is full of suffering. Catholicism teaches that our suffering is redemptive when united to Christ's (and therefore God's) own suffering. Suffering has purpose for Christians and brings us closer to God when suffered with and for Him. That is what it means to carry our crosses. Not because we are masochistic psychos, but because it actually serves an important purpose.
I don't know what happened in your life or your marriage, but I am sorry it brought you away from your Christian heritage. Supreme detachment from our world does not lead to less suffering and does not allow for God to make good from evil. | e5nshq1 | e5mu90v | dysb2jw | Chief_Stares-at-Sun | bbwfw | Chief_Stares-at-Sun | 9e7nwo | 9e7nwo | 8ijgbq | Christianity | Christianity | Christianity | 0 |

I know you really really really want to be right, but you just aren't this time. | Pure fantasy built on bullshit, you say?
Sounds like a comment you posted meets that criteria as well:
"But, this is the whole point of the issue. . . It doesn't matter what my view is, It matters what God's view is. People who practice this way believe it is wrong for women to be pastors because God says not to do it durring the practice of public worship, not because women are inferior.
The Bible says what it says and it doesn't say what it doesn't say."
The fact you call it The Bible and not The Torah leads me to believe you consider yourself a Christian (Surprise! You suck at it.), but what you reference is Old Testament. If we're talking Christianity, Jesus is your reference point, not God. And if we're talking Jesus, I'm pretty damn sure he'd be one of the people from a "shithole country" that the GOP would shit on and want to throw behind a wall. If you consider yourself a Christian, you should want to help those less fortunate. Building a wall upon which you can flip off those who just want a better life for themselves and their family is pretty damn anti-Jesus. A brown man from a foreign country who had tradecraft that would just be exploited here for a sub-par wage, who advocated for taking care of your fellow man, who was about as Socialist as they come, who overturned money changer tables, who bucked the local religious and government elites...yeah, GOP wouldn't want Jesus. | Now you're using semantics to walk yourself back from idiocy. Just to be clear, I'm an atheist who does not attend church so I don't take offense when you badmouth religion. I do take offense to your inability to reason properly, it makes it humans look bad.

Plenty of comic fans have proposed theories as to what's killing the comic book industry, and those theories have merit to them, but there's one problem that I haven't seen anyone mention. That is the impact comic book Youtubers have on the industry. Many comic book youtubers such as Comicstorian and Comicsexplained don't review comics, they break the plots down in their totality. If I see one of their videos and I'm interested in the comic they talk about, I'll buy it afterwards because I know I'll get more out of actually reading a story than I would just watching a video. But there are a lot of viewers who don't read comics regularly, and/or have never experienced what it's like to read a comic before, so they may not see a difference between watching an explanatory video and reading the comics themselves. This concerns me because I fear many fans view free YouTube videos as an alternative to buying and reading comics.
Tens to hundreds of thousands of people watch these videos daily, but the highest selling comics every week only reach around 200,000 copies sold at most (according to Comicchron.com,) and only a couple comics ever reach those numbers. Most "successful" series stay in the 50,000-100,000 range. Plus, there's no guarantee that the comics are even being purchased by consumers. The site estimates retail shipments, not actual units sold. Marvel has also been known to over ship comics for free in an attempt to boost their shipment statistics so they look more profitable. Suffice to say, the Marvel numbers can't be completely trusted. This issue has a larger effect on new stories than on old ones. Older stories are well known and readily available outside of comic shops, so they're more likely to be purchased by general consumers. It's why comics are now "paced for the trade." The sales reflect this, and videos explaining older stories probably aren't too much of a detriment on their sales. But the real harm comes from videos made about current and ongoing comics. These already have a limited market, and these videos may be taking away potential customers.
The videos go into extreme detail about the storylines featured in each one, and in Comicstorian's case, they even show panels taken from the issues (albeit with dialogue removed). A lot of the people who watch these videos have the mindset of "I already know what happens in this story now, so why bother spending money to read it?" In some ways they are actually right. The videos break down the stories beat by beat, so if a consumer doesn't want to spend the extra cash, he might just watch a video about the comic he was initially planning on buying. The industry suffers as a result, with sales tanking yet viewership reaching new heights with each passing week. For example, two of the most popular comic Youtubers who I've already mentioned here are Comicsexplained and Comicstorian. They both each made a separate video on Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps Dark Knights Metal Tie-In: Fall of the Gods. The combined total of views on both of those videos is around 310,000. Comicsexplained's video, with over 100,000 views, came out on the same day as Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #34. Naturally, that issue must've sold around 100,000 copies if not more based on people's apparent interest in the series. But that's not the case at all. Comicchron lists the issue at less than 30,000 total shipments. The next issue, which was released just two weeks before Comicstorian's video, (with nearly 200,000 views,) garnered 200 less shipments than issue #34. Now, Comicchron only lists physical comic shipments, not digital, but I seriously doubt that digital sales can make up for the other 280,000 viewers.
Here's another example: Super Sons #11 was released on December 20th, shipping under 40,000 copies. Then, on January 10th, Comicstorian released a Supersons story video, which received 100,000+ views. It's paradoxical that comic sales are this low when there's such a great demand for superhero and comic-themed content. Of course, this is in large part due to the fact that single issues aren't widely available outside of comic shops anymore. In the 90's, comics were being shifted from being sold in supermarkets to specialty stores. After the comic crash happened most of those stores closed, and now physical single issue comics and back issues can only be found in a limited amount of comic shops across the country (or on e-bay). But it's not as if comic stores are that rare, if people went looking they would find them. Just imagine what the comic industry would look like if each one of Comicsexplained's million subscribers all went out and bought the issues he talks about. I'm sure you get the picture.
This is not an attack against any Youtubers or entertainers, and I'm not arguing that Youtubers shouldn't make comic story videos. Although maybe they should consider waiting to do videos on newer comics until a few months have gone by. That way fans will be forced to buy the comics if they want to keep up with their favorite universes. I ask this as an avid fan of online comic book content: Are comic book-themed Youtubers hurting the industry? | Yes. I do think it's the critical point in the evolution of an industry happening before our eyes.
It's just like when streaming killed blockbuster-- no matter where you're from, if you weren't a die hard VHS/DVD buyer, you moved to streaming. It's just what makes sense and the alternative feels tedious and inconvenient.
Likewise, comic books are an analog to the modern age of comic book movies. The new generation also wants to be included in this new age, but lack the depth in background means that there is a market for YouTube to step into.
*Kids today are so lazy and illiterate. Why don't they just read the comics?!*
Well, like with everything else, that's just the way generations change. Why don't you program your computer by hand, instead of using fancy new age tools like MS Office; why don't you grow your food at home like our parents did, instead of ordering delivery services; why don't you just write letters instead of texting like a mindless drone? *Kids today, ugh* (/r/LeWrongGeneration).
If you don't like the way comic book youtubers are doing their business, that's fine. Keep reading the originals; I actually wish I could read them myself, but I don't, so I won't. I'm part of a new generation who are less interested in collecting large boxes of paper comics. It's just not what we do anymore. And that may be fundamentally disturbing to a lot of older generations but that's not necessarily the fault of young people is it? Are they bad people for being born post 2000's where the Internet contains more information than a comic book store? I don't know, but even if they are, there's not much anyone can do about it. Society changes, ask blockbuster.
Addendum: if it irritates people that much, maybe you could start a business based on compromise. Digital copies of original comic books purchased and browsed on modern smartphones (I'd be surprised if that isn't already a thing though).
| Not all comic book channels are bad, not even the ones I used as examples in this post. The online community is a fantastic thing to be a part of. It's just that some of these channels may have damaging effects on comics as a business. I'm a fan of Comicstorian and Comicsexplained, but I'm also aware of their potential negative impact on comics. | 7s982h | dt38sdv | dt30dhi | Galactusurfer | teetaps | Galactusurfer | 7s982h | 7s982h | 7s982h | Marvel | Marvel | Marvel | 0 |

It's hard to say a mixtape that will never get on streaming services in an all-time project, but this may be it. I don't know if they can ever top this, although they're still making great music. Sometimes I feel like they're better at making songs than constructing projects, and I wonder if maybe they just had the perfect storm on BOD. The only thing stopping Vaction in Hell from being universally praised in my opinion was the way it was constructed as a full length: if you took the 12 best songs from that and made it flow well as an album, it would be one of the most acclaimed of the year.
Meechy Darko literally with some of the greatest verses I've ever heard in my life on this project, no bullshit. This is a fuckn amazing mixtape, one of the very best of the DatPiff era no doubt.

199,436 | The apologists for the Republicans are completely ignoring the fact that many of these people have been on the move for weeks if not months.

To them, they've been lurking *just* on the other side of the border, carefully listening to Trump's every word, parsing every Border Patrol press release on their robust "caravan" WiFi.
All of this is not an excuse for the underlying issue of illegal immigration, but the Republicans are acting as if their "deterrent" can travel back in time and was immediately received by all migrant families. It's hubris, but the administration is so cowardly, they won't even take credit for their "tough guy" act. "It's the Demmy-crats!"

199,448 | Yes I got the pocket x for portability and ease of use and I am now looking to add another device with some more power that can give me flavor. Flavor is what I am looking for at this point.
I just received some vape wild juices and it’s all tasting bland at this point. Not sure if stewing is required or it is due to my device.
Will the aspire breeze 2
Or the eleaf ijust 3 be the same as the pocket x? | Please recommend me a mod:
Upgrading from Smoant Charon (and Batterstar before that).
Main requirement is reliability and consistency. I'm sick of mods that start having bugs and quirks and defects after a couple months. Or stop working altogether.
I like to vape between 60w and 100w. Want something that fits at least 2 18650 batteries, more would be great.
Don't care about any fancy computing functionality. Don't even need a digital display. I just want something that can vape at that wattage and work reliably.
Thanks! | Ok so some new finding to share. I went to my local vape shop and tried a couple of flavors and brands and nothing I mean nothing gave me any flavor it all tasted bland. The guys even said this is their sweetest and I could barely get a taste.
When I first go the juice from theory labs mango flavor, I thought all juices will taste like this but none of them do. To prove my theory no pun intended. I tried their only other flavor grape, which I immediately could taste on my lips and mouth. One, thing though is that the more I called the flavor become subtle but the first few drags are so delicious.
Now I am very wary of juices and few like I won’t like anything or in this regard taste.
I would love that pineapple flavor but worry that I won’t get much from it. Now sure if it is the 80/20 ratio or the company using something else but it’s clean and delicious.
I even tried punch mama Fiji Apple that gets recommended here but the same thing, no real taste in my mouth, I got subtle hints of it but nothing that made me go wow.
Now, I am confused and questioning myself what can’t I taste the flavors except the one brand. | e55xfoj | e56g06h | e56fovf | tin369 | _NotWrongJustAsshole | tin369 | 9bsdtm | 9bsdtm | 9bsdtm | electronic_cigarette | electronic_cigarette | electronic_cigarette | 0 |

I find that as I continue to find new ideas of what to build they become more complex and require aid of multi disciplined teams and sometimes multiple teams of people. I would like to lead those teams so I can direct how things are built and bring my ideas to fruition. Try that without first becoming a leader in your field which typically has to follow the money. Commerce is the life blood of human society. It's how we have thrived and will continue to thrive. | For most of us here, money is a significant limiting factor in our lives. Even if you find "steady employment" the money you have coming in is still dependent on the profit of your employer. The economy changes, people get replaced, businesses close down.
OP's point is about gathering knowledge to help you adapt to new situations in the future, in order to take control of your own life. If a depression were to start tomorrow due to some unforseen catastrophic event, those with the knowledge of advanced systems for production, services, etc will be at a tremendous advantage during the rebuilding process.
Even without a fantasy scenario, knowledge of the entire business will help you to better make decisions in your everyday life while at work. You can position yourself better for opportunities to increase your own standard of living, or even help others to do so.
To be honest, your willful ignorance is very unsettling.

Exactly. The Senate did not give its consent. Case settled.

Talking about the "spirit of the Constitution" is like talking about the "spirit of God". It's whatever you want it to be. The only thing that matters is the text because the text is what was ratified, not the "spirit".

You are reactionary. You are woefully ignorant to the entire refugee/immigration process. And I suspect that you would have much fewer objections if more immigrants/refugees were coming from European (white) countries than from Asian/Middle Eastern countries. Please correct me if I'm wrong though, I expect that you must self-flagellate yourself every morning in shame, as unless you're First Nations, your ancestors did the exact same things that you are now complaining about others doing. | Get off reddit and get back to work yo | No evidence in your link that rental properties are being filled by "multicultural centres".
No evidence that immigrant families are overly using or abusing Ontario Works, subsidized housing, or other social services.
Again, you're proving that you are completely reactionary, and just made up a bunch of claims regarding immigration based on a single census statistic.
Do you know anything at all about the process of immigrating to Canada? Serious question. Detail for me all of the requirements that an immigrant needs to go through, including education, financial stability, ties to Canada, criminal records, sponsorships etc.
Your other link you provided just shows how little you know. Actually take the time to read the statistics you're providing. Out of 85 thousand people in Windsor who identify as immigrants, roughly 60 thousand have a highschool education or higher (which also coincides with their ages of immigration, the 25 thousand difference is made up of children).
Immigrants are largely profession, educated, and wealthy families. You can't just decide to come to Canada, being broke and uneducated, and live off welfare. I invite you to stop the foreigner bashing, and actually learn about what it takes to immigrate to Canada.

199,460 | Here's what would've have happened if Bo stayed: We'd continue to beat teams like Illinois and Rutgers. Every other team in B1G would be a toss-up or guaranteed loss. Purdue is getting better and Bo was already starting to lose to Minnesota at a decent clip. We always traded games with NW. We'd continue to get blown out by Wisconsin and while Bo had a winning record against Iowa, I have a feeling it wouldn't look much better than the record now. East teams? Yeah, we'd most likely get blown out by them too.
People like to give Bo a ton of credit for winning 9 games but never seem to realize who those 9 games were against. Bo had the benefit of the West and the majority of the East being really down at the time and having manageable OOC schedules. I can almost guarantee those 9 wins a year wouldn't be happening now because he had already plateaued and was starting to regress. And don't get me started on his cancerous "us vs everybody" mentality.
What I take from people giving us crap for firing Bo is that we were supposed to just accept our fate. We were supposed to watch the team get worse and just accept that we couldn't do any better. To me, that's ridiculous. That's what we would've done by staying with Bo.
I look at a team like Wisconsin who's recruiting situation isn't much better than Nebraska's, if at all, and see what they're able to do. Excluding their game against Michigan this past week, they're able to hang with the big boys the entire game, and sometimes win. They don't do this with an embarrassment of 4 and 5 stars throughout their entire roster, they do it with a bunch of 3 stars they develop unbelievably well. Why can't Nebraska be that good? The answer is, there's absolutely no reason we can't. But to do it, we need a coach who knows how to develop players better.
The talent is there to go toe to toe with everybody in the west just about every year but they look slow and weak. They look unconfident. They look like they don't know the very fundamentals of football like tackling for example. Scott can't change all of that in less than a year. Like I said, it's gonna take some time to turn this around and I believe he's the guy to do it. If we have to have a garbage year to get where we're going, then so be it.

199,466 | Yeah, a HD texture pack for it would really make the game look great. Though it's not really a popular enough game to get a HD texture pack, nor does it look bad enough to warrant someone making a HD texture pack. Games like Xenoblade Chronicles and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time / Majora's Mask got HD texture packs because they were in dire need of them, but Spyro: A Hero's Tail still looks fine without one. | I just woke up after sleeping for far too long and I'm blown away by the amount of comments and upvotes - thank you all so much. I'm just a dude who [streams games every day](http://fd04streams.com) and I recently [started streaming FireRed with my friend](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elIcORpFFr8&t=1469s) and it inspired me (last week) to make Pallet Town in Unreal as a learning process for my next big cinematic I'm working on. For anyone who's interested in me or what I do, come chat while I stream at 6pm (UK time) over on http://twitch.tv/firedragon04 and I'd be happy to answer questions live then.
Here is a brief **FAQ** to answer some of the common questions I've seen about this Pallet Town scene:
1) **Are you some game developer?**
No, I'm just a dude who likes Pokemon. I'm still learning Unreal and this is only the second thing I've made with the engine.
2) **Were you inspired by Octopath Traveler?**
100% yes. Octopath does this incredible normal mapping technique which lets sprite (2d) characters recieve light in a unique way. This is actually the first thing I did to the sprite in this scene. You can mostly see this in the night sections as the light casts across the sprite showing depth to a 2D thing.
3) **When did you first play Pokemon?**
I picked up Pokemon Blue for my Gameboy in 1999 which is when it was released here in the UK.
4) **What did you use to make this?**
I modelled and animated all the things you see in 3DS Max and then imported those into Unreal Engine.
5) **Won't Nintendo just Cease and Desist this?**
I doubt it. It's not an ongoing project nor is it being released for money.
6) **Are you making the entire game?**
No, this is it. I just make small scenes in Unreal at the moment for educational purposes while I teach myself the engine and work on big cinematic scenes. | [And here's some images of Spyro: A Hero's Tail in 1080p](https://imgur.com/a/TCq2t)! | dx94o79 | dx8jl6u | dx91af2 | Gameskiller01 | FireDragon04 | Gameskiller01 | 8bij6l | 8bij6l | 8bij6l | pokemon | pokemon | pokemon | 0 |

The combat is pretty painless as far as turn based games go, quick animations, intuitive controls for the most part.

199,479 | >which is way worse than literally sexually assaulting women
Referring to the Trump “grab her by the pussy” tapes
>Call the entire other 50% sexual assaulters
They were talking about Trump
The point they’re making is that if someone is on the fence (I really don’t know how many voters were like this in 2016, but let’s say there’s some hypothetical midwestern white woman who just didn’t know who to pick). In that case they’re watching the news (and this is a hypothetical so these news stories are asynchronous but that doesn’t matter):
Two news stories go up one after the other: the first is a March For Sign protest and a sign from the OP flashes up.
Then the second news story goes up and the audio plays when Trump says “ She walks in. Blonde, big phony tits. You know the type... When you’re rich you can do whatever you want to these women. Grab them by the pussy.”
If that voter is equally offended by both of those stories, perhaps she wasn’t *that* undecided to begin with. | What movie is this? | I assume left wingers targeting climate change.

199,490 | You are so wrong about dictators. That’s why I gave examples of Stalin and Mao because they were revered as Gods and all their political opponents in the party and among the population are practically purged. My parents and grandparents lived through those dark days. Without their death, there would be no revolution when a political machine is so effective at brainwashing, controlling media/information/knowledge and cracking down on dissents. Look at Franco of Spain. Look at North Korea now. Cuba. Venezuela. Saddam was overthrown by foreign powers. Dictators overthrown by their own people are in the minorities.
Well you could argue it’s unethical to let someone die when there is a solution. I think it’s short-sighted and not generalizable to all situations but I can see why you think that way. And it become a huge headache to debate about it because there is really no good answers. That’s why I’m proposing to think about the ramifications of this technology BEFORE it becomes reality, so we don’t need to face that ethical dilemma.
Ethics are a hard topic, that’s why we need to have a serious conversation now before the situation grows out of control and opinions become impossible to reconcile. In my opinion, SUSTAINABILITY is the most supreme ethical principle to achieve. Without that, people will inevitably suffer, often in greater numbers and greater magnitude, than the short-sighted solutions to suffering such as anti-aging without mechanism to prevent negative consequences. I’m not inherently against anti-aging treatment, but for any technological advancement, we need to find effective solutions to potential negative consequences BEFORE they become reality, just like what AI scientists are doing. Otherwise, that would be unethical practice of science in my opinion. | What are some short term benefits or products can we expect to improve life expectancy? | First, you decided to “choose a camp”. Being close-minded is the worst mistake anyone can make. We are all fallible, yet by rejecting the error-correcting process to improve the accuracy of beliefs, you choose to shut down the rationality in you and see things black and white. That’s a pity. Then I don’t expect to have a rational, logical discussion with you. This will be my last comment.
“You develop this tech or you don’t.” You never understood my position on this matter, again showing that you immediately considered me belonging to “the other camp” and ignored all the nuances in my arguments. I never called for a “ban”, which is totally unwarranted at this stage. There are many ways to develop new tech. You can totally ignore any social or environmental ramifications, or you can be a responsible scientist and develop effective plans to mitigate any potential negative consequences before they become reality. If you are ever truly concerned about ethics, you will undoubtedly favor the second approach. Otherwise you would just be a hypocrite, cherry picking certain ethical values that fit into your narrative and conveniently ignore others that don’t.
Nope it’s not philosophical at all. We all know childhood experience has tremendous impact on later adult life. It shapes our preferences, worldviews, what we deem as “common sense” or “the norm”, and what we deem as ridiculous, crazy ideas. Through neuroscience and psychology we know that these prior beliefs affects how later experience is interpreted and are quite hard-wired in our brains, making it hard to be altered (exceptions always exist). Btw, anti-aging is not gonna solve these hard-wiring problems happened during our development, because our brain cannot physically grow indefinitely. By these reasonable assumptions, no matter how hard a person with everlasting youth tries to keep up with the progress of society, if he was born 500 years ago, how difficult do you think it would be for him to accept a totally counterintuitive scientific progress such as “earth is round” when he grew up hearing and spent another 100 years reconfirming that it’s “common sense” that the earth is flat? How difficult would it be for a 5 year-old kid with a fresh start to accept that earth is round? (personally I accepted it the first time i heard it, because there was zero prior false belief to overcome.) If he has 100 years of knowledge accumulation, he would pride himself for that vast wealth of knowledge. How would it feel when that wealth of knowledge is proven to be false? He is likely to lapse into denial and even active campaign against true knowledge. We see that way too often in history already even without long life, now imagine making such counterproductive efforts forever instead of a few decades at most. Even though there are flat-earthers nowadays, they are a tiny tiny minority. But if we live young forever, we would have a lot more flat-earthers and science-deniers in general, and ironically might not make enough scientific progress to eventually develop this anti-aging technology! Expanding this idea to social progress, what if all the Nazis were still alive? Imperial Japanese soldiers? Slave owners? Do you think there would be peace in Europe, Asia, or the US if either of those was the case? You may say “but they were so backward and our modern society no longer has those people or problems”. Trust me, every generation thinks the previous generations were backward. 500 years later, people then would look at us like “how stupid were they not be able discover blablabla, how unenlightened were they to believe blablabla”. Having modern day people living more than 500 years would face quite similar problems as people born 500 years ago and still alive today. People from 500 years into the future would certainly not want either you or me alive and still have influence over the society, just like we don’t want those pre-Renaissance pre-enlightenment flat-earthers from 500 years ago to be alive and influence our society even if they tried to keep up.
And lots of people don’t even try to keep up. Some people can’t find enough time to keep up if their schedule is too busy. Some people don’t have the resources (money) to keep investing in their education/training. People who actually ended up learning for life-time are the ones with most resources, time, and motivation to learn and they are the rich minority in the minority of people valuing life-long learning. You will get a society of outdated, rigid minds. | e51ig4o | e518pqu | e52b26m | bryanwag | ChaosBlaze9 | bryanwag | 9b96jl | 9b96jl | 9b96jl | IAmA | IAmA | IAmA | 0 |

199,494 | The recording and conversation was very public and you can hear the "oooohs" from the other children, when she says the things she says about the child. So it definitely wasn't private and was meant for the child and the rest of the students to hear. If it were an interview or private discussion between the child and the teachers, the recording would be illegal but since it was said to the "public" and kind of said in general to the class it is not. | What? | Good riddance to someone who needs to pick on someone with autism | dx78ntp | e68v57o | dx753hg | CatJongUn | CatJongUn | TheKillingJok3 | 8bh3cj | 9h3nf1 | 8bh3cj | news | AskReddit | news | 1 |
199,495 | The best you can do is try to think about them a little more. And speculate some, make it up a bit. Sounds like she wants to talk more. | Does she ask you and you don't answer or you don't think about these things. Never heard my Dad say anything this way. Don't think he thought about anything other than the here and now,and work. Sat and watched tv every night. | Yes, there is even an app where you can read the book and take the test to see what type/types you and your spouse are | e80pkgi | e80llov | e80oaut | GA1200 | GA1200 | mactire4579 | 9paxch | 9paxch | 9paxch | relationship_advice | relationship_advice | relationship_advice | 1 |
199,496 | I doubt he’ll be around long. Sooo much stress and falling from America’s favorite dad to rapist locked up in jail will take its toll on him, good genes or not. | >Remember when so many people defended him online saying it was all women lying? I do.
I remember interacting with one woman on the now defunct IMDb forum who just went nuts.
At the very beginning she wasn't too bad. She said she was a victim of sexual assault, and thought men who did it should be punished. but that she didn't think Cosby was guilty. From her posts it was clear she had conflated Cliff Huxtable with Bill Cosby.
Then she went over the edge. For days on end she spent hour after hour creating new threads to try to bury the story in the back pages. Couldn't stop herself from going after people. Had account after account banned, but would create new ones. Claimed to have secret information on all the accusers.
Ended up this woman who said she'd been sexually assaulted saying she didn't care if Cosby was guilty, she didn't want him punished...near as I could figure just because she hated some of us so badly for disagreeing with her, ignoring her and getting her account banned again and again when she kept breaking the rules.
In the end, as more and more women came out, the die hard Cosby supporters on IMDb broke down into a few categories...
1. People who couldn't separate Cliff Huxtable from Bill Cosby
2. Men who hated women
3. Old fashioned people who thought that any woman who was alone with a man was asking for sex/rape
4. Blacks who thought Cosby was targeted because he was a successful black man.
| I guess we’ll just have to see. If he ever does get out, I’d keep a low profile if I were him. But he might be arrogant enough to try to do a show. | e6msdme | e6nmjwq | e6mwoms | Gmajj | Maggie_A | Gmajj | 9iulm1 | 9iulm1 | 9iulm1 | news | news | news | 0 |

199,498 | Rihanna was born and raised in Barbados, fyi. | The Caribbean is a sea, not a continent. (And it has it’s own tectonic plate.) Barbados is an island and is NOT a part of North America.
The question is, why do YOU continue to insist that Barbados is a part of North America? | They just announced they’re releasing a primer with the palette. The swatches that were posted looked promising, but I think we all know we have to take swatches with a grain of salt | e18tmqv | e1a3qt7 | e19jqur | ourlittlevisionary | ourlittlevisionary | avegall | 8tja9s | 8tja9s | 8tja9s | MakeupAddiction | MakeupAddiction | MakeupAddiction | 1 |
199,499 | Nani? | This explains why lots of strangers tend to randomly start telling me about a bunch of personal crap I never wanted to know. I always found it insulting to interrupt or ignore someone when they talk, and with strangers I try to politely make noncommittal comments like, "well, what do you think." | It's really bad, but I would watch it for a good giggle. | e14ww8z | dxg1lpf | e15nace | Crazy_Kakoos | Crazy_Kakoos | TheReelMan | 8t1pzo | 8ckkta | 8t1pzo | movies | LifeProTips | movies | 1 |
