   How is ridiculing someone for what they were born with or without a point of pride for you? Examine THAT.

   The author's central takeaway that beauty must feature ornamentation is, to me, a very inept observation about the elements of art/design.

   Hits meaning...clicks? Was the motivation in your project to get attention? Serious question, not sarcastic.

   Well, shoot. This one hurts. One of my favorite no-nonsense places to get info or just browse. And smartphone cameras are getting good but they're not remotely close to real cameras. Had a 13 max until my new/much better s23 ultra

   Fortunately some competent, responsible people know the difference between a joke and a serious crime and have thusly charged him with the latter.

   I picked up a Sheaffer Agio (yellow, nickel trim) on ebay recently, new in box, 10 bucks. I have some Parker Quink (blueblack) in it. It writes better than anything else I have, including a $550 Delta I picked up in Venice years ago. I high

    So interesting. I never thought this was ANYTHING but a piece about the magician Teller. "Bank teller" never registered until your comment. What's much more interesting about your comment is that is evidence of some of the po

    Shall I reply with an equally specious counterproof? Colorado versus the rest of the US.

    Vegetables and fruit rank next to poultry on the top of the food pathogen list. Raw flour can and does carry Salmonella. Food pathogenicity is where you think it will be and often where you don't think about it at all.

    Pretentious means to pretend to be someone/something one is not. DFW was definitely as brilliant as he "appeared to be". I won't get into details because it is very personal, but DFW did something staggeringly generous a

    This is is not good writing any more than curling a single finger a thousand times is good exercise for the body.

    How is it not HN worthy? A review of the comments indicates some love and appreciation for a company apparently doing many things right. The implication brings contrast to Amazon and others. It's a case study. I think it's exactl

    I don't know what you're referring to, but that absolutely does not describe any Chicago pizza. And while I'm sure some do, I can't think of many Chicagoans who call it "pie". At all. I dare you to go to Pequod

    DDG search has been much better for me than google and has been for a few years. Google search has become a complete disaster. I'm curious about what you mean by DDG being so much worse.

    Words have meaning and power. How they are used literally changes the discourse. Your participation in this discussion is proof that the example under consideration has impact well beyond "playing with words."

    Thank you SO much for this. The false equivalency fallacy is part of the problem. The misdeeds on the sides are absolutely asymmetrical.

    I think it can be chalked up to "naive outsider musings" coupled with the "national geographic touch."

    There is absolutely no such thing as "permanent record holder" in track and field. The structure of records in track and field is a very specific thing, and the current world record holder, which record is set in accordance with t

    Specifically what do you think was Zelezny's completely different revolutionary technique? Because if you're talking about "wrapping", it was not new. Zelezny did not radically change the technique of the event. I'm

    I think you should spend some time plotting throws of the last 20 years using performances from top athletes the worldathletics website. You'll discover that you are mistaken. This suggestion is related to to for why the claim matters,
