    Ghostbusters Trailer - Holy s#!t, how is it this bad?

    If it makes a bunch of money, then its disposability is really not an issue. Investors don't aim for an instant classic, they aim for a good return. If it's a "bunch of money" then they'll be thrilled, and you'll see a Ghostbusters 2. That's how the business actually works. If a billion...

    UPDATE2: Glaciers, Gender, and Science - Now with more bickering!

    If only you people could have mustered some proportional outrage for government waste across the board, we wouldn't have the F-35 program, or lost trillions in the middle east. Now, back to your regularly scheduled symbolic outrage.

    New Code of Conduct

    PG-13? Do you know what that actually means? Your forum isn't PG-13, by any stretch. If you're really going to enforce that, a lot is going to have to change. You might want to reconsider your metaphor.

    Ghostbusters Trailer - Holy s#!t, how is it this bad?

    In my opinion, that's a lazy explanation. These are businesses, and they're doing something that they think will make them the best possible return on their investment. You need to separate that from the fact that you're not the target audience. Naturally, you and people like you are not a...

    Cancer will always be with us, according to more recent research

    I think you're not going to have that much luck, based on your beliefs, the first major illness that you don't get lucky with will end you. Of course, you are free to die as you see fit. I only care about these issues when they effect people who don't get to make a freely informed choice, like...

    Ghostbusters Trailer - Holy s#!t, how is it this bad?

    I think that you're confusing intelligent commentary, or subtext, and intelligence. Ghostbusters was a fun, 80's comedy. Most of what it was, was fun, plus those proton packs were the most amazing thing a young kid could imagine at the time. Frankly, that time has passed, and the time of...

    "You're being too picky because you don't like X!"

    You won't "Deal with", in what way? You won't be friends with people with kids, or who smoke? What if a current friend of yours turns out to be smoking, or has a kid? I need some more information on those points, because if you just mean you that you won't date someone, then fine that's all you...

    Ghostbusters Trailer - Holy s#!t, how is it this bad?

    It doesn't look that great to me, but I'll reserve judgment until it's actually out. I like the cast, the effects looks solid, but that writing was pretty cringeworthy. That might be what they chose for the trailer though, to appeal to the broadest possible audience.

    I don't get it. Free Speech Under Threat At University? (Added Extra)

    But seriously, don't argue with a creationist, unless you're a teenager with a control complex who just likes to argue past someone forever. That's about 50% word salad, 50% rant.

    By your logic, red wine must be magic! http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/107-year-old-put-long-7309246 You too can have a post hoc fallacy, and you! And you! Everyone gets a post hoc fallacy!

    Couching your desire to be an autocrat in terms of freedom and censorship is nonsensical.
