Think for a moment. Do you really want an answer to that question?

“I have finally accepted that I won’t be rehired, so I’m going to announce that I’m ‘done’, and try to make a graceful exit.”

I was also astonished when I found out that the Catholic Church supports evolution.

When I was a kid, an anchor on a major network news program called mosquitos “flying hypodermic needles”. This was at the height of the AIDS epidemic. It absolutely terrified me.

I was just old enough to understand what the anchor was talking about, but too young to know that the TV news was often exaggerated and should be treated with skepticism. I’m still kinda bitter about that. Scaring the fuck out of a kid is NOT okay.

It would be terrible if someone abused this lack of moderation to fill grockipedia with accurate information

Yeah. There’s a big difference between

and “it’s my strong recommendation that…” People are alarmingly bad at reading.

Good for your boss… and good for the couples who wouldn’t put up with that!

The spoiler is what got me

 

I typically go with 20%, but that’s just a guess.

 

I was expecting it to be just another post-apocalyptic drama, and I’ve seen so many mediocre ones that Station 11 wasn’t high on my list. I was very wrong.

Station 11 was well written, well cast, and interesting (if confusing at times).

 

Just about everyone looks better when they smile. It’s true regardless of gender. I don’t see where sexism enters the equation.

I feel pretty oblivious. What am I missing?

 

Is it because of the instance they’re posting from, some kind of “award”, or what?
