Whatever, buncha kids with your 90s anime. Namakura Gatana has one of the best anime fight scenes ever:

^ Basically this. The whole plot of Ender's Game is designed to appeal to nerdy (pre)adolescent boys. Everyone's mean to Ender but it's actually a conspiracy set up because he's the best person ever and the world needs him and then he becomes Space Alexander the Great and then Space Jesus the...

I don't disagree that a male coal miner does not get much privilege from being a coal miner (mostly a function of social class,) but he still gets privilege from being male. A female coal miner would suffer in a similar way due to her class as a male coal miner, coupled with and reinforced by...

I don't understand how you can so readily dismiss arguments along these lines. It's one thing to say "some men tend to have it worse than women in X Y Z," but you do realize... that isn't the fault of feminists, right? These systems are largely enforced and were created almost exclusively by...

It's hard to say what, in the end, they'll be able to do if they got nothing on you but want to punish you anyway. But you don't really have any other option but to maintain your innocence. It's entirely possible they're just grabbing anyone that they think might be guilty and threatening...

^P much this. I mean, I get where you're coming from. ("Hahaha how funny would it be to flip their argument back against them and make them feel silly!") But that's not really important, and what's going on in the real world is a lot bigger than that. Granted, among my generation, whether we...

Uh... did you read the article? Granted, the headline is worded poorly, but the body of the post makes it clear that it's meant to communicate "Mojang thought about it in the past but decided it was a stupid idea," not "Mojang is thinking about it in the present." OT: I wouldn't have bought...

I kind of prefer the series ending. In a way it's the culmination of what the series was about, dispensing with the fighting angels artifice (even if only bc they had no money) and instead providing closure to the character study side of things. Eva's whole things was always, "Yo extreme stress...

Not that I'm saying it absolves them of anything (god no), but... The difference between /b/tards and Redditors is that /b/tards actually know they're assholes.

My experience went like... "Misogyny is men hating women as much as women hate each other so don't feel bad bros, like only 15% of my viewers are women but those are the good women, most women suuuuuck, like I know this one woman who's pretty cool she makes video games, oh btw it's bullshit...

I'll post actual thoughts on the video itself if/when I watch it, but I can already tell from the preview image that this guy is a colossal douchebro. Edit: Ok I got to 1:06 before laughing my ass off, don't think I'm gonna bother lol.

I like to play the ponies. Generally break even or make a lil extra. My first job when I was 15 was at a greyhound track, always liked the culture surrounding racing I guess, plus it's exciting in a way that random games aren't for me. Counting blackjack is something that interests me, though...

Those ice cream people upstate could learn a thing or two from how Mr. Softee operates down here in the city! http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/cone_biz_2S51Qn5mlSKM2PIoItWMQO http://gothamist.com/2009/09/22/mister_softee_literally_threatening.php

Alright, death rates to death rates. According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime's 2012 numbers, China has a per capita murder rate comparable to that of France, Sweden, and Australia. The United States' per capita murder rate is nearly five times theirs, comparable to Cuba...

Pretty funny, though I can't really talk shit seeing as I haven't driven in like 6 years and doubt I could still parallel park. As for people-watching, not specifically the drivers themselves, but... I can't help but be amused watching tourists in Manhattan try to hail cabs. It's captivating...
