I've heard that it is very boring on the flat screen. But in 3-D it was amazing! And normally I hate 3-D. When I took off my 3-D glasses a couple times it definitely wasn't as beautiful/entrancing.
Last I heard Javier Bardem was cast as Roland. Like, OK. I don't see it. I imagine Roland as a lean clint dude, and Javier Bardem is too big and broad! His face is too wide.
Where does the new book fit into the canon? Does it come between some of t…
Sunflower seeds - cheaper and less salty than other brands
Tofu and tofurkey
Thai vegetable gyoza - in the frozen section
Soy Creamy Cherry chocolate chip ice cream - GREAT vegan ice cream
Sea salt and turbinado sugar chocolate covered almonds
Hummu…
I don't normally drink soda, but I drank some root beer at Burgerville the other day and I had a similar reaction. My body was like, "UGH, what is THIS?"
I don't have a problem with ice cream or chocolate or other sugary things, but sugary drinks a…
I firmly disagree that Bridge to Terabithia is for 12 and above. The kids in Terabithia are 11! It deals with death and is sad, but c'mon, kids are aware of mortality by elementary school.
With Blume there's maybe more of an argument, but I still t…
C'mon now, nobody has mentioned Bridge to Terabithia?!
Bridge to Terabithia FOR SURE
There's a Boy in the Girl's Bathroom
Sixth Grade Secrets (about sixth graders, but kids like reading about older kids)
Sideways Stories from Wayside School
OK, you…
How can the scurvy/pizza thing be true? Scurvy is caused by lack of vitamin C, and tomatoes are a great source of vitamin C! Was this person only eating white pizza?
I know a guy who ate nothing but noodles for a month, and by the end of the month …
Surely the opinions of those with a caffeine addiction are unfairly biased? You wouldn't ask someone with a heroin addiction what they liked more than heroin, because the answer is nothing.
As someone who drinks coffee occasionally but isn't addict…
That graphic seems to be arguing that because Foxconn employees aren't treated as badly as other people in China, they must not be treated badly. Which, c'mon, that's bullshit. I'm glad that Foxconn treats their employees better (at least in 2 metri…
Erotic fiction almost seems worse because people write shit with minors involved (Harry Potter &c).
I'd rather people write about that stuff than have children in front of the camera. Child/teen porn is out there, and there's no way to stop it 1…
I don't think it should be "put to an end." I think it's tasteless and demeaning, and I wouldn't support it, myself. Unless they're breaking labor laws, I don't think your scenario is likely to happen.
When I found out this was done by the same firm that does those Axe Body Spray commercials, I was like, "Oh, THAT'S why it left a bad taste in my mouth! It's a marketing campaign made by assholes."
I guess what bothers me most is the passivity of the "job." They just stand there and be hotspots. It's not like they're selling something they make, like food carts do. If they were driving rickshaws or pedi-cabs, I wouldn't have a problem with it.…
Beards are out in the open. They're way less personal. You don't only show your beard to people in intimate and vulnerable moments. But yeah, I agree that people's dumb opinions about pubic hair shouldn't affect your choice to have it.
I really don't get Street Roots that often, but when I do, I definitely read it. Buying it and not reading it is ridiculous. What do you do, just throw it away?
I agree "ask me for a 4G connection" is better. The language was problematic, but I do…
I've also heard dating horror stories where a guy will see a girl has pubic hair is all grossed out. Really insensitive and douchy behavior, and I can't believe people actually say stuff like, "oh you have too much pubic hair," but it happens!
But …
It's worse than street roots because SR is empowering. It's written and edited by homeless or former homeless about homeless issues. They are making a product and learning skills, and the gains from this go beyond getting money or a job.
Hotspots, …
Look, fine, then DST all year. But honestly, if you have kids, sunlight at 10pm suuuuuucks. And the hour change also confuses their internal clocks and they don't feel sleepy at their bedtime.
The days are already longer! That's what summer is!
I don't like it because there's really no reason for it. It doesn't help farmers, it doesn't save on electricity, it's just this weird tradition that we all do.
And there's some problems it cause…
