But isn't this particularly thorny issue kind of central to the whole POINT of this thread? The thread is "The Mike Problem," and people didn't really start talking about Mike being a problem until this issue came up. We're discussing the right or wrongness of what he said.

Got a calculator?

Wraith, we're quite happy to consider other viewpoints here, but please try not to present yours through the medium of artillery fire. Artillery fire? What, precisely did I say that constitutes "artillery fire?" "Artillery fire" would be "I don't need lessons in tact from t...

OTOH I have to say I've only ever seen "Cis-scum" and its negative ilk in articles/etc attacking "feminism" or "gender studies". Did you not see my post? Because I put up a picture of it. Now you've seen it at least one time. If you'd like, I can show you a whooooooooo...

I think that continuing to have this conversation is good, and finding common grounds for terms and terminology is good as well—even if those terms were originated by hyperbolic and/or easily excited people. That way when we have these discussions, there's less confusion about what we all mean. Whi...

Things I have hit my head on:

1. Ceilings
2. Ceiling FANS (while moving)
3. Tunnels
4. Top bunks
5. cabinet doors
6. desks
7. A B2 stealth bomber.

Was it really negative though?

Wraith, you are massively generalizing. "Cis" is used by far more people than those you claim (unless you think that by trying to patiently explain things to people, I am exactly the same as people who irrationally hate people as a way to "counter" oppression). :/ I... was going...

The heavy-set woman approaches the treadmill. She’s somewhat aware that she’s a bit out of place in this gym, filled with large, muscular men lifting heavy weights, pushing themselves and their bodies in a determined attempt to maximize body’s potential. Still, while she may not be as dedicated as t...

Well, since it was suggested that another thread be made for it... See, I admit, I'm torn. I fucking love Penny Arcade. I love PAX. I love Pinny Arcade. I think the Penny Arcade Report is great, although I wouldn't say I love it. I think Jerry's pretty fucking swell, and his writing it better. I th...

Embarrassment level: absolved. Next to Dragon Age: Origins, second best PC game of all time, IMO.

Can anyone think of why you couldn't throw the party to end all parties? Rent out Hertz castle, hire every platinum-selling artist in the past decade to play, fill the pool with imported water, fly guests out first-class, have Gordon Ramsey cater, etc.? If you focus on paying for services and consu...

Wraith

Organising that would, I think, take a lot more than a month. Ramsay, for example, generally has around four free days per year. Well then, I guess I'd have to hire the foremost promoters, talent agents and organizers to speed up the process, wouldn't I? Ramsay has four free days per year? So what ...

Also, these bulk of these 'causes' are populated by teens and twenty-somethings who, and please forgive me for being blunt here, are still trying to get a handle on the optimum ratio of 'heart ruling the head' instead of vice versa. Don't get me wrong, passion and conviction are great - they get th...

So, the big Steam Summer Sale has drawn to a close. In previous years, I've gone a bit over-board and felt really guilty afterwards. So this year, I made a couple of rules for myself: no buying anything over $5.00 (exccept for bundles), and no buying anything that's less than 75% off. Thankfully, I ...

Wraith

Go big. Buy some jets. Sell the jets for $5.00 a piece. Spend the jet money T.G.I.Fridays.

Doesn't sound hard.

Wraith

Damnit, thanks to previous Steam sales and the fiscal irresponsibility fairy, I have 442 games and 342 pieces of DLC. Now I keep seeing great deals and going "ooh! I'll get that!" And clicking on it, only to realize I already have it.

Wraith

I'm amazed at the amount of labels our society is creating for ourselves. Once upon a time, people rebelled against the idea of being labelled at all; now it seems like we're bound and determine to quantify and catalog every man, woman and child as exactly as possible. Like we need these social-base...

So I have a month of admin access to a password-protected, private TF2 server. Anyone want to boost achievements?

I take a lot of flack for some of my social positions. Many of them are not very popular (though I'm pleased to be finding out that some of them are gaining in momentum), and philosophical clashes are inevitable. I don't mind that so much. You know what does bother me? How much of the flack I take i...

I'm with ya, Merrymaker. The problem is form letters. They don't read your letter, they skim it and fire off the closest form letter based on key words. Some of these places even have bots that do it for them.
