I love the use of "sir" while pushing someone back from getting where they have paid to go. That and "People think they have the right to ignore us." It's not a right, it's a choice, and a smart one at that.

You hotel management is stupid if they buy into the Apple-centric paradigm given that Apple changes something to a new "standard" with just about every iteration of their product. I've seen these radio dock stations in too many hotels and thought "Bet you nobody uses that."

How is this insensitive? A white kid wanted to be Mr T, who's black. Gonna need some makeup to make that happen. If black men can dress as white women for a movie, I don't see how a white kid dressing up as a black actor for Halloween is any worse. It's not black face.

That's a pretty convoluted perspective. In general work gets done because people are paid to do the work, so that the people (after taxes) make a profit. Nobody's going to do a job if it costs them more than it's worth. Take that to the next level, and businesses aren't going to hire people to do work if the end result isn't profitable. But what about charity? Nobody does charity if they're starving.

The issue with pit bulls is that they are a tough, strong breed. This allows owners to be more rough with them, playing or otherwise, which desensitizes them to rough behavior. This can happen with any breed, but with pit bulls, they are so powerful that if they get aggressive, they can do a lot of damage. My neighbor has one and he is a gentle giant, but if he is trying to protect somebody/something, it's pretty scary.

Feel sorry for the guy. His entire family disowns him "because it's the word of God". I really like the part where the mother said "I knew you were gay since you were a baby" and then proceeds to tell him that he chose to be that way.

It's really just a matter of communication and timing. She is not in the mood for sex as often as he is and feels she needs to lie in an attempt to protect his feelings. Obviously he doesn't believe her, but fails to follow through by helping her get in the mood. Granted, the guy is only after sex, but sex is an emotional need that cannot be satisfied (morally) outside of marriage, so she needs to understand this and realize that she's not always going to be in the mood when they have sex and he needs to realize that he is not always going to get what he asks for. Like any good salesman, sometimes you need a good sales pitch to close the deal.

If you're thinking that, it's probably because of Sojourner, the first MARS rover, which was about the size of a dog. The MERS were bigger, but I have to admit, with that six-wheel chassis design and no size reference to compare, it's a understandable misperception.

I don't quite grasp the time span. If the light from the most distant object is roughly 13 billion years old (presumed age of the universe), then that means these distant galaxies were already formed at the beginning of the universe.

People may initially notice if you behavior is different than usual, but if you're always "down" then those that see it every day just get used to it. Are you expecting those around you to solve your depression? Probably not.

As most others have suggested here, you need to take care of yourself.

There is a similar mechanism for bank accounts, guys. Instead of an 'M' shape straw, you just get 'M'arried, and *poof* the funds start flowing out. Works first time, every time. Only difference is, taking the 'M' out doesn't stop the flow. Once it starts, it never stops.

A woman of Dominican nationality lost the stirrups and hammered all the crystals of the vehicle of its husband in a fact happened in the city of New Jersey.
The woman, whose name is unknown until now, committed the fact motivated by jealousy. The scene was captured on video by the same husband of her who was inside the vehicle.
The worst of all is that her children were also inside the vehicle next to the father and were cut by small pieces of flying glass when the woman hits him with the hammer.
She was expected to be handed over to the authorities yesterday, but she did not. Currently there is a fugue from justice.

This was exactly the same issue 30 years ago when I went to college, except then the internet didn't exist so the only source of course material was the textbook.

The term "runner up" is confusing. Why not "winner", "second place", and "third place"?

Pompous prick. If your chef doesn't know how to properly cook a steak "well done" then he really has no business calling himself a chef.

Ooh, you own a code book, try reading it. Centex homes are a piece of shit, so that explains "understanding" of electrical code. My 4500sf house was built in 2001. Not a 15A breaker in sight,
robotnic
Breakers protect the wires from overheating between the panel and the outlet, not the equipment plugged into them. Breaker choice is a balance between how many runs you have to make vs the # of outlets that are affected by a tripped breaker. A 20A breaker allows fewer runs with more outlets but requires more expensive 12AWG wire. A dedicated 20A breaker services appliances that might need that much and has a special outlet to accommodate the special plug (horizontal neutral), but for non-dedicated 20A circuits the outlets are all the standard 15A (parallel neutral and hot) style.

I compare the insurance issue to taxes. Not only do those taxes cover things that the majority use, but, if zoom in you see that certain members of the community benefit from expenditures where others won't. For example, the city could put in a park on the other end of town that you will never visit, so you won't see the benefit, whereas you get your street repaved that the other side of town will never use. If you make the cost decision localized, individuals suffer because they can't afford their local costs all at once. So taxes are like a community pool that is fed by a whole lot of hoses. As for Kimmel, his final point was that his child, without the pre-existing condition clause, means his kid may never get insurance.

What part of that outlet says it's a 15A circuit? I haven't seen a 15A breaker in at least 20 years in any modern home. You still work with Edison base fuses?

You make a good point about political experience; people only acquire it by playing the political game and becoming good at it, which just purpetuates the problem. My concern with Trump is that he is really only in it for himself. He says what he thinks will garner support until he gets what he wants and abandons/attacks anybody who doesn't support him. He does what is in the best interest of Trump. Whether it is in the best interest of the country is irrelevant.

Apparently cosplay has morphed from being the act of dressing and behaving as a character from a movie or book to just dressing like one.

Why not just charge more in those locales that pay higher salaries? I don't see this being any different than a restaurant at an airport, where they have higher rent rates and pass that cost on to the customer.

Adversity is a great motivator, but if the obstacles to success are life-threatening, only the truly courageous are going to break through. Today's entitlement-based society makes the adversities tolerable, so only the exceptionally talented and motivated succeed.

Went through this once on a trip back from Alaska. The last leg between Dallas and Houston was cancelled due to weather so there were 120 people waiting on standby.

The other problem is that there is no accountability. People can do whatever they want health-wise and "the system", i.e., everybody else, is expected to pay for the consequences. You want your insurance subsidized because you can't afford it? That's fine, but you have to actively maintain good health, e.g., no smoking, BMI at a respectable level, etc. Same goes for welfare. Earn your keep, or lose it. It's not slavery, it's just being practical.

Disagree. First amendment means anybody may say anything in any way, including in any language. It doesn't require anybody to understand. Besides, the law would be meaningless as there are many situations where communicating in a different language is necessary, immigration being the most obvious example.

Your example highlights a worst-case example: the Grand Canyon. There must be visitors from 100 different countries to that site every year. Don't know how many languages that translates to, but just curious how many languages a station pump should reasonably be expected to have? That pump doesn't look particularly advanced, so I wouldn't be at all surprised if English is the only option. People probably complained and the owner got tired of it, prompting the note.

A blink is about 1/3 second. With an electronic global shutter this is impossible (all pixels sampled at same time), so you must be referring to a a rolling shutter. However, a rolling shutter is still 10-100 times faster, depending on settings. Is this possible with an electronic shutter, sure, with unusually slow frame capture settings, so I'm inclined to think this was either a mechanical shutter or photoshop.

I would agree with you if the circles were the same size, but since their values circle is smaller and only slightly overlapping the other tells me that they have few values and only give a passing nod to the more important and larger group.

Not true. Credit unions do similar shit. My son had a checking account that he tied to paypal. He made a purchase that exceeded his balance so it bounced, which immediately incurred a $24 fee. Paypal did this twice more before cancelling the purchase, so he lost $72 on a $10 purchase. The bank got their $72 fee by pulling the money from his savings account, but would not transfer the money from savings to checking to cover the purchase because my son would have to authorize that.

Put simply, if your current car gets better than 58mpg, then you're better off sticking with what you have. If your electric rates are higher than I used (>12c/kwh) then the equivalent mileage requirement would be lower. If your gas prices are higher, then the equivalent mileage would be higher. Basically, unless you have a really efficient car or really high electricity costs, it'll be cheaper to drive electric when strictly comparing fuel costs. Of course, there are other considerations (e.g., charging equipment, range anxiety). However, those fuel-efficient petrol cars don't have "insane" performance mode!
robotnic
You're looking at less than $10/250 miles, or less than 4 cents per mile (US) with 12 cents/kwh. At current gas prices in my area ($2.35/gal), that equates to 58mpg in terms of cost.

We have a shitload of gun carrying people in the US and also have the most mass-shootings, so your argument doesn't wash. As for "capable"... well, there's the rub, isn't it? The only capable people are going to be the ones who train for this and practice frequently, e.g., military. Mall cops don't cut it. As for "normal" citizens being armed, most people, when faced with a shootout situation and armed with a gun, are more likely to hide/cower. And if they do fire, they are less likely to hit their target than they are of hitting something/someone else. I still argue that the only group that benefits from more guns is the gun/ammo producers.

The democrats used to be the elitist rich, which included many land owners. After the civil war, they tried to repair their image by pushing through token legislation that made them seem less racist.

I rarely hear the term washroom in the US, but it makes sense if you consider most facilities include a sink. Bathroom implies what we in the US would formally refer to as a full bath(room), i.e., a room with a shower/bathtub, sink, and toilet. As for restroom, I believe this is a term that came from a time when the toilet facility also included an area to sit since the formal attire women wore was not conducive to sitting comfortably if at all. Of course, there's so many terms for this room that I am flexible and don't fault anybody for whatever term they use to describe the room for relieving their bladder or bowels.

Wrong. People started jumping up and down in a wave pattern to see if they could get the bridge oscillating. It didn't work very well. Later, they convened at the Tacoma Narrows bridge, where the technique worked like a charm. I was there. I saw it. True story.

He has a strong Asian accent and it doesn't sound like he speaks English that well. He probably thought he was being deported. As much as I hate excessive legislation, hopefully this event will prompt so new law requiring that airlines better manage their seat allocation or face high mandatory penalties (paid to inconvenienced customers).

Try explaining this to a guy on a bicycle. The metaphor works, even if the etymology is a little mottled. Now explain "tenfold", which means "ten times", but, to me, should mean folding something ten times, with each fold doubling the number of layers, e.g., 10 folds = 2^10 = 1024 layers,

Oh look, Shirely's being dense again. It is just as likely that the dad started typing in the url of the site he wanted to visit and the browser's site completion started popping up urls that were questionable. At that point, he brings up the history menu and, viola, porn/satanic/alt-right sites show up.

Drax was "too scary" in the first movie to fit the Disney cookie cutter hero persona. Don't want to confuse the little kids with complex characters.

You think they can't make LED lights with the particular wavelength that a sodium vapor light emits? The only advantage sodium lights provide is cost, since they are currently cheaper over their life than LED.

Headed there in April for a couple of weeks to celebrate my 25th anniversary, so I'll get to test your assertion. If I don't post any more comment's come may, it may be because I gave in to temptation.

A Domino just cuts the mortises, not the tenon. I understand your confusion about time and space given that your mother only lets you out of the closet under the stairs to do chores.

Because they don't like the way their hair looks and don't want to waste the time/money to make it the way they want it. Only so much you can do with curly hair.

Yeah, for all the effort he put into that, it seems it would have been more efficient to just wrap a plastic bag around the whole nest, tie it off, swat the stragglers with a fly swatter, and leave the sealed bag on there for a week.

Quantify "excessive smoke". If you can't, then it's subjective and can't be enforced. My wife cooks indoors using a vent to the outside and I guarantee you the smell permeates the neighborhood.

"no need whatsoever to wrap your identity around your sexuality"... Agreed, and I think it applies to straight people as well. No need to show how manly you are nor how feminine, but some people insist on doing just that and it irritates the rest of us less flamboyant straight folk.

They call it Cheetah because they modelled it's gait after a Cheetah. Oh, and BTW, it can run full speed at nearly 30mph. Don't turn your nose up at amazing tech just because it isn't as good as the real thing... yet.

You make an interesting point, but acting out your violent urges in a video game may prevent you from learning to control those urges so you're more likely to be impulsively violent.

I've always followed the mantra "Better the devil you know". Seems particularly apropos and ironic in this case. I'd say I know enough to know better.

It's all uber and no humor. Interesting nonetheless. Besides, sometimes these videos spark humorous comments. Cause and effect. Actually, that should be cause OR effect.

Listen, and understand! Technology is out there! It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear! And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead!

His first three sentences were logical, but his "I'll save lives with my bravery" boast is where he lost it. And that last sentence? Way off in left field.

From a play written by a Jew from England (Israel Zangwill). At the time, it was Europeans doing the immigrating, but the term still works because it was about the Americanization of immigrants, regardless of ethnicity.

Then maybe a better phrase would be "don't let your unlimited plan slow you down", but no, they had to pick phrases that are contradictory without explanation. They're not going to get any coverts with this campaign.

Wish it were that simple. I occasionally get rats in my attic and have poured over every inch of the house exterior looking for how they get in. The majority of the house is brick, with some hardy-plank soffits, and there are no visible holes. Even caught a squirrel in there once, so the hole must be pretty big. I trap them once they're in there but can't keep 'em out.

I'm talking about the tool, fuckwit. You need a separate part (the tenon, aka domino if you insist on using the name brand) to put between two mortises. An integrated tenon is stronger. Tell me about all the other stuff you have learned from the internet with that Stanford Binet score of yours while living in your mothers closet. You really should come out. You'll see that it's all rainbows for you.

I assume you ask because of the guy on the right, who's most likely a Sikh. Anyway, India was under British rule for hundreds of years, so I'd guess they are already quite familiar with western culture. Furthermore, Sikhs don't try to convert anybody to their beliefs; they have a live and let live mindset. Don't know any personally, but the ones I've met seem just like your average Joe with beards and a turban.

A can of Fanta orange has 120 calories (all sugar) per cup, whereas apple juice has around 110 callories per cup. This picture is "light" apple juice, which is around 60 calories per cup, so half as much. The dumb part is apples don't really have much nutritional value other than a little vitamin C and fiber, but all the fiber is strained out of the juice. What makes this worse is wasting a whole can of perfectly good Fanta. Go mom!

Without context, it's impossible to know what the story is, so people assume she's just an attention whore since that's the default for these kind of posts.

Maybe people are harping on this guy because he's always in the news. If he'd just shut the fuck up for a while, more worthwhile stories would bubble to the top. I suspect Hillary is enjoying her hiatus from the spotlight.

Bullshit. The first thing they demanded of him was to fix the economy, because it went in the toilet during Bush's reign. Not happy with the way he dealt with it, but he was handed the job at a pretty lousy time.

Complete nonsense. Chain restaurants, especially fast food, are typically franchises, which means the owner pays for use of the brand and gets their ingredients from the corporation. Labor is paid out of the earnings from an individual store. It isn't a communist operation where all the income goes to the corporation for redistribution to the employees.

Point taken. However, I figure if you're having sex, you know the risks and both he and she should accept responsibility. Unless you both agree that if a pregnancy results that she'll get an abortion, the guy needs to own up if she decides to keep the baby.

Since this verse could just as easily be talking about evolution, hasn't that ship sailed hundreds of millions of years ago? Perhaps what we are experiencing now is a time-dilated version of the apocalypse.

My son has had some seriously unreasonable teachers up to now (11th grade), so this is somewhat believable, but to regurgitate them all like this seems unlikely unless this person is some ninny that's just collecting a list of all the ways he/she has been wronged, at which point I'd have to think maybe the teachers had a reason not to like him/her.

Oh I see, so mandatory military service and being surrounded by countries that want to wipe your country off the face of the map is the solution to mass shootings. Got it.

I'm gonna let you in on a little secret; It's all fake. Anyway, check out Serenity and Firefly. As for the titties, sadly, I've seen more in sci-fi than in real life. Besides, have you seen Altered Carbon (on Netflix)? You shan't be disappointed.

What he said, verbatim, is this "They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people." He's implying that the majority are criminals.

Hilarious that, while posting the question "have i made a grammatical mistake", to whitch the answer is "yes", you make numerous grammatical mistakes. Classic!

Thanks for clearing that up. Perhaps you can tackle the "where did the universe come from?" question as well. And don't give me some answer like "42", 'cause I've read the book and that is just be begging the question.

Let's apply your logic to drunk driving. You were only driving drunk that one time and killed someone in the process. A one-night mistake should not result in 18 years in prison. I say if you're in the drivers seat (literally and figuratively) then you own the consequences of your actions.

I figured SNL would have been the first, given their Bass-o-matic skit, although it would be hard to pull off without the PC crowd crying foul.

I don't buy this explanation. I think it really is just a simple matter of the thicker skin on the palms and feet absorbing water and requiring more surface area than the tissue underneath, so it wrinkles. Maybe since the paralyzed hand doesn't get any use it has no callouses, making the skin thinner so less prone to pruning. I wonder if our hands "prune up" in warm oil?

I figure abortion has its purpose in the realm of natural selection. Anybody that has an abortion is, in theory, not propagating the gene that lets people be willing to have an abortion. Food for thought.

Seems rather presumptuous on your part and vindictive on His part. I can't imagine why any god would need perpetual torture. Maybe "The Matrix" had it right and those souls are just copper tops for the machines, in which case, I say "Enjoy your eternity of whatever feasting on the souls of others".

Actually that shadow is cast on the thin layer of clouds just below the plane. The rainbow is the light refracting (reflecting?) off the clouds back to the viewer.

Huh, we actually agree on something. I'm really surprised at the up-voted comments on this topic since they all seem to miss the point of the graphic: money makes climbing to the top easier. It says nothing about how the money was acquired.

If you want up votes, you have to be negative with you comments (see top comment for example). Alternatively, you can be like Dawg, who has 32 accounts and uses them to up vote almost every post he makes.

Distilled water has no taste. Who drinks distilled water? Nobody. Bottled water usually has minerals in it, which adds a slightly tangy taste to it. Incidentally, what the fuck are you doing trolling posts from a week ago? Go read a book.

Actually, yeah, they are supposed to get the lane to themselves. Perhaps you think motorcycles are not "whole-lane" vehicles either. After all, they cut around traffic, drive in between cars, etc. If cyclists are given a special lane, they'll use it, but what are they supposed to do if there isn't one? I've seen too many cyclists get clipped because some fuck doesn't see him or thinks there's room to get by. Riding in the middle of the lane is the safest way to deter stupid/aggressive drivers. Yeah, there are plenty of bad cyclists, but that doesn't justify running them off the road because you're driving a bigger vehicle.

You do realize your body is infused with bacteria, inside and out? Yeah, bathing is perfect, so something's going to be left behind, but a fresh towel per week has worked for the past 45+ years without incident.
