Why say "deleting yourself"? Are we really going to censor our speech here too? There's no advertisers to spook by saying killing or committing suicide

Yup, there's plenty of time to have fun if you don't have to manage lil' ones. Not saying people who want kids shouldn't get them, but moreso that people who don't necessarily want them and just see it as something people have to do should consider a childless lifestyle. It's better for everyone that way.

Oh, that's very interesting. Where I live there are only upper speed limits on most roads except highways. On other roads you can drive as slowly as you want, though everyone will overtake you if they can or honk at you if you don't.

I've never understood why people pick on drivers under the speed limit. It's called a limit, why do we expect people to be over it?

It's a weird coincidence how ofter this happens with kids and French teachers. I know at least 3 other people who have been through similar stuff and it happened to me too and we've all been to different schools

Can someone explain to me in layman's terms why this is the most efficient way?

As long as they don't use exactly the same words in the book, yeah, as I understand it.

Working in a zoo must be very fun. Probably tough as hell, but very fun

I think your last paragraph encompasses the essence of what people hate about this decision. I haven't seen any outrage at companies that have never celebrated Pride. On the other hand, having celebrated it before and then deciding not to - especially when the event was ready to go and just needed approval - well, imo that's even more of a politically motivated decision than simply having Pride

I'm not saying it isn't - but so is Pride. Why would you place a subculture celebration - Christmas (since not everyone celebrates), over another subculture's celebration - Pride (which also isn't celebrated by everyone)

I don't see why we can't have both. Just ignore the one you don't like and let others have their fun too

The fact that business engage in Christmas celebrations instead of, say, Ramadan, is itself a political decision - it places value on Christmas over the celebrations of other religions.

I'm not saying there shouldn't be Christmas events in games - quite contrary, I think having as many events from as many cultures would be a smart business decision and it would make a larger number of players happy. But the fact is it would be a double standard to be fine with that and not with Pride.
