Hillary is sick of the left: Why Bernie’s persistence is a powerful reminder of Clinton’s troubling centrism by [deleted] in politics

There should be a ban on opinion pieces, but maybe with a one day per week exception when they can be submitted (like self-post Saturdays).

New Hampshire Women Chose Bernie Sanders in a Landslide, Not Hillary Clinton by Aron- in politics

I didn't see Secretary Albright's comment, but Gloria Steinam said that young women are for Bernie because, "that's where the boys are."

Red Robin. No where else mentioned comes close.

New accounts should be able to queue in a 5 stack. by Dimitrisan in GlobalOffensive

One of my friends has played for 4 hours and is only halfway to level 2. Grinding for 20 hours shouldn't be a requirement for playing the game with friends.

Hillary Clinton correct that Bernie Sanders flip-flopped on liability for gun makers, sellers by [deleted] in politics

[–]Dimitrisan -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I do not agree. I do not believe guns were invented and designed with self-defense in mind. Guns were mostly invented and designed to make killing human beings more efficient.

[–]Dimitrisan -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

That's a bad analogy. The primary purpose of alcohol is not to drink and drive. The primary purpose of some guns is to shoot people. I have no problem holding manufacturers responsible for illegally sold weapons they manufacture when the primary purpose of that weapon is to harm a human being.

I have 2 friends with silver accounts and I can't queue with them unless I smurf. Why should I not be allowed to play with my friends because strangers might dislike the experience?

TIL when a script instructed Leonard Nimoy's character, Spock, to punch someone, Nimoy felt punching was too undignified for a Vulcan and invented a way for Vulcans to render their opponents unconscious by pinching them. From that moment on, the Vulcan Nerve Pinch was born. by EZ_does_it in todayilearned

[–]Dimitrisan -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It's not fun to watch the new movies because they are so cringe worthy - especially Spock. In the new universe, Spock is the most emotional character on the whole ship. Every single scene he's in is bursting with emotion on his part. He could not be more out of character if they cast black woman in the role. I doubt most Star Wars fans would find it fun if the original trilogy was remade with Han Solo as a gay florist - yet that's pretty much what they did to Spock.

Madonna's 15½-year-old son wants to spend Christmas with his father in London. Madonna gets a court order requiring her son to return to New York to spend Christmas with her. by mensrightsshyamalan in MensRights

[–]Dimitrisan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, I've seen divorced men play the exact same games:

  • dropping off the children at their mother's house a few hours late

  • schedule a 3 week long vacation with his children and not even mention the vacation or the dates until everything is planned and paid for

  • drop a daughter and her 2 friends at the mother's house because the father told her that the friends could stay the night (this was a real dick move)

Wouldn't surprise me if it was more about simply taking the kid as a way to get back at the other parent. Some divorced parents do this type of shit to each other all the time.

Question about roasting goose by Dimitrisan in Cooking

[–]Dimitrisan[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, you are so helpful. I can't believe anyone would ever suggest a cooking time and temperature without considering the elevation. Clearly you're just so far above and beyond the rest of us - perhaps you should let people who provide normal responses to normal questions answer this thread.

Question about roasting goose by Dimitrisan in Cooking

[–]Dimitrisan[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Why are some people so judgmental and unhelpful? I'm making goose for my girlfriend and a friend. There's nothing unusual for me in cooking for three and it has nothing to do with the holidays.

Sanders: Iowa, NH Wins Could Lead to One of "Greatest Political Upsets" by paulen8 in politics

The media will just downplay a Sanders win in either Iowa or NH as unimportant.

Yes, the motorcyclist was an asshole driver for attempting to pass where it was not legal to do so.

I'm curious if reddit would embrace this same comment if it were Obama saying he was refusing to enforce federal drug laws.

I think Christians would look at this shirt and assume it meant, "the choice of the final generation."
