I’m pretty sure the love for Warcraft III evenly splits X and Y.

Customer taste preferences are definitely odd. I liked their pizza before the change, and really liked it afterwards.

Aye, the difference between me, diagnosed in preteens, and my friend, diagnosed at 3, is immense. I still have the odd craving and sometimes indulge with stupid results. She? Never even crosses her mind.

Lol, just around the corner is right. My doctor, waaaay back in the 90s, said a cure was 10-15 years away. I think it’s just language they use. Especially when they are talking to the extremely sick/depressed who just learned what they have.

That just…seems so wrong. My mentally declining grandmother used firefox back in the 00s era (though now that I think about it, my uncle is a developer, so maybe he set up the computer). How have we backslid since then to where so few people know/use firefox?

I’m pretty sure the post/phrase is the additional context. If I’m going to make a post about “there was an attempt to…” I’m going to use language to point out the boggartness of the whole affair. Like, really, who uses “behind” to refer to an ass on the internet? Put it together with the female part and the title was clearly trying to come across as asinine and mocking the incel language.

The hilarious part is, I really did read that in a sort of british accent. Just mentally put it as 'orn, ‘obby,’ and 'ydrogen atom.

Generally female and male are terms used in more ‘scientific’ or exact language. I wouldn’t say, “I met a group of females last night,” but rather “I hung out with some women at the bar.” It sounds awkward to use female/male in casual conversation for the typical English speaker. on the other hand, if I was writing a paper and discussing the research subjects, I would definitely say something like, “The research cohort consisted of 22 males, ranging in age from 21-34 years old (mean 24.5, SD 1.3), and 31 females, ranging in age from 20-39 years old (mean 25.6, SD 2.1).”

It’s come to be considered derogatory for the same reason as retarded, mentally challenged, intellectually disabled, etc. have come to be derogatory: feelings built by consensus and time. A large group of people don’t like the average ‘incel,’ and then they got the idea that incels were using the term ‘female’ in place of woman because they didn’t see humans of the female variety to be ‘people’ in the same way they viewed males.

I took it to mean people who earn that much per year. The average person working a $30k+ job should have more than a million in the bank at retirement, and that should have been enough to retire on comfortably. Now I’m being told it’s more than 1.5-2 million dollars at retirement.

*Initialism. Acronyms have to be words, like ACORN or RICE.

One day, I’ll play all the different white wolf games, FATE, and whatever else is in there. One day soon…

Nah, mate. 6’3" and 215 is still mildly overweight. https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/educational/lose_wt/BMI/bmicalc.htm

Absolutely. Sue the judge and lets get this ridiculous argument lampooned publicly so we can throw out this particular bullshit.

Credit unions aren’t always perfect either. I switched unions because one started adding fees.

Don’t forget that there used to be literal assassins that would kill you if you tried to sell (as a retailer, obviously the resale by individuals was so small-time they didn’t care and hard to track) under the price you were told to sell it.

Perhaps we can create a new extreme sport of beating yourself with a baseball bat, and advertise it exclusively in areas where mind rot has bloomed in the population. Oh, wait…

Yeah, I think the Nixon and Bush Jr. examples could have been way stronger than those. It seems they were chosen for their recognition rather than their severity. Abu Ghraib was not good, but blaming Bush for that rather than the whole war?

Context matters. When they’re in a conversation with another person that they care for and are face-to-face, who is talking about a contrary point of view, logic and thinking is present in some small amount in their brain. They’ll actually think about the other person’s point, and then make the mental shrug about Trump and his crimes and their effect on his viability/reasonableness as a candidate.

If they’re in a group of other supporters, or on the internet, they very quickly do the republican/conservative thing of ‘falling in line’ and will try to publicly demonstrate (virtue signaling, aye?) how much they are part of the group and follow its standards.

I’ve had several conversations with my parents. When it is just me and one of them, I get a semi-reasonable conversation, but if another person is present, suddenly it’s like having a conversation with a fox news talking-head.

Problem? I see an opportunity here. Perhaps it is aesthetically pleasing to see Ho during sex. Therefore anyone can sue if the Ho is not currently having sex. Obviously it is mete for all to have sex with the Ho at any time they wish. Heck, sue so a court can order that Ho to have sex with you.

Unless you care about privacy (signal), why even have a second messaging app? I have the phone to make calls and send texts. The default shit works well on iphone and android.
