I shut my mouth at work and go along with this stuff because I have no choice. I have a family to take care of. I've accepted this. But man, why do they always throw in the line about striving to make the workplace a "diverse and

It reminds me of those fake interviews they used to do on radio - where the artists would record one side of an interview and it would be sent out to hundreds of radio stations and the morning DJ from some podunk town would be interviewing

I really don't understand why they don't just stuff the rest of the computer in there at this point.

It's surprising the lengths they seemed to have gone to make the single player experience not fun. I know the goal is to get more quarters in the machine, but it felt like the wrong way to do it. The 2 player competitive experience was

I find the notion incredibly selfish. My family is accustomed to their lifestyle. There are certain realities that can occur that would require a reduction in that lifestyle, but I should not deliberately cause them to happen. Sometimes the

"Sorry son, you're going to have to quit hockey because dad is having a midlife crisis and is going to switch careers" Is the problem here the external factor of my son's desires? Or is it a problem with myself, putting

I loved MK3 but was never a fan of Ultimate MK3. New characters were great, but the game felt like it was jam packed full of bugs, and the AI in single player was literally impossible. The computer would instantly counter everything you tri

I would fault the officials that set up the gun buyback program with wasting everyone's money.

The reduction in accidents and suicides from gun buyback programs sounds essentially impossible to measure. These programs cost money so they should be justified with real evidence. I understand it isn't very much money, and studying i

Oreos getting rid of lard was a staggering change. Then partially hydrogenated vegetable oils got the boot, and whatever they started using in Oreos after that was absolutely vile. They've improved somewhat in the last few years, but t

We've heard about shrinking products for decades. They must occasionally return to their original sizes, or they'd be really tiny right now. I've also been hearing that Cocoa Puffs are "Now! More Chocolatey!" at reg
