So, what do you think is happening in Palestine? In Lebanon?

Maybe it’s not very addictive for you. It is for most people.

The way you are with coffee is the way I am with nicotine. I’ve smoked. I’ve quit smoking. I’ve started again. The most craving I’ve gotten for a cigarette was incredibly mild. Once I read that nicotine could trigger certain diseases that run in my family, I quit tobacco completely and I’ve never looked back. I haven’t had a cigarette in about 18 years, and quitting was trivially easy for me.

Based on this, I could say “Cigarettes aren’t very addictive. They’re easy to quit!” And of course, I’d be dead wrong.

I mean why else would an LGBT+ person vote Republican unless they’re just plain stupid?

Greed?

Oh, yes. He started campaigning for 2020 immediately.

I didn’t expect that they would hire people to pretend to be them.

Why wouldn’t they? Think about trying to respond to all of those people, every day, on top of doing everything else you need to do.

But…but…there might be spoilers!!

I think it’s so silly how every article about this talks about the danger of spoilers because the game leaked early. There are going to be spoilers galore once the game officially releases in a few days. What difference does it make?

Nope.

I’m not willing to carry around 300 cartridges

Where would you be carrying them?

Oh, look, a straw feminist. Haven’t seen one of those in awhile.

Just that they think that using house rules everyone agrees on is a great idea.

I can think of one or two times where house rules were appropriate, and a couple of dozen times where they broke the game. I think that you should only apply a house rule where 1) the game is already broken and 2) you’re reasonably sure that the house rule won’t break it further. It’s good for when an otherwise fun game is ruined by something that the game designers overlooked.

How would you get the numbers for a lottery that was 23 years ago?

The area I lived in voted for a minimum wage increase several years ago. Tons of people were saying that it was a bad idea, because the businesses would just raise prices on everything.

Minimum wage increase passed. Prices didn’t change.

I think this is because minimum wage increases don’t happen in a vacuum. There are other things to consider. If your company raises prices, I’m going to go to a competitor who doesn’t. The idea that “they’ll just raise prices” assumes that all businesses will react to a minimum wage increase in the same way, and that’s not the case.

Can’t zoom in on an animated GIF. There’s no reason for that to be animated.

Fucking raise the minimum wage. The problem is that prices are rising but wages are remaining stagnant.

Where did I say that I wasn’t going to vote? I’m voting Green. If there’s a good Democrat running for Congress, I’ll vote for them, too. This isn’t complicated.

I live in a blue state. Using that same logic, my vote for a Democrat is a wasted vote, because my state is going to go blue whether I vote for them or not.

Wait…you think those are intuitive? Fuck no.

Who’s going to intuitively know that “long hand pointing at 2” means “10 minutes after the hour”? Also, having the long hand for minutes is super unintuitive when hours are longer than minutes.

Also, for context, i often eat an entire loaf of bread without anything else

What kind of bread are we talking about here

I think it’s the latter.

Exaggeration is being used for comedic effect.
