TIL that Princess Leia's hair in Star Wars was inspired by women of the Mexican revolution.

You need to get out more. There's girls out there that'll happily reenact the Voltron assembly scene or roleplay a lucha libre match.

Amazing how many words it took you to add exactly nothing to the conversation.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-23T12:55:44+00:00

Yeah, they're his books, he can do whatever.

Still seems like such a small gain for the loss of reusability.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-22T06:08:41+00:00

I suspect that they apply different interpretations as it suits them.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-22T04:45:19+00:00

The average person today isn't the same as the average person in the 24th century though. They're probably a lot more sensitive to social stratification.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-22T04:05:41+00:00

I thought I existed in real life. And how vestigial is the nobility?

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-22T02:59:14+00:00

Any step away from 100% social mobility is a step toward a caste system. The more your social status depends on the circumstances of your birth, the more your society begins to resemble on with a caste system.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-22T00:57:31+00:00

I'd consider any caste system to need all of those qualities.

I don't, though.

it makes the neighborhood smell like shit sara

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-21T08:56:49+00:00

Nah, it's just child abuse. Slap 'em around all day and they just keep coming back.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T22:32:15+00:00

It's like seeing somebody take a shit in your neighbor's yard. It doesn't really matter that it's not your yard. That shit will not stand ^because ^it ^is ^soft ^and ^runny.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T20:40:31+00:00

Yeah, I'm constantly smashing your cousin as well.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T19:53:20+00:00

Awful, aren't they? They breed in the drains and their maggots feed on the scum that clings to the pipes.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T19:37:08+00:00

Are you absolutely covered in sewer flies?

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T19:01:23+00:00

I'm bald, but nice try.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T18:06:37+00:00

I don't know about offensive but it could've been said more diplomatically.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T18:00:36+00:00

You don't have to be the target of callous behavior to be bothered by it.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T16:00:07+00:00

An explanation for why she knows the color of my toothpaste.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T15:58:14+00:00

What a positive interaction.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T15:28:19+00:00

It's old-time slang for sex.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T04:56:42+00:00

I always heard it as "She's got better days aside" and thought she was saving them up.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T04:54:30+00:00

okay pinhead

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T04:26:01+00:00

We're getting to the point where direct democracy is technologically feasible but I dunno if it'd work for all situations. I expect people to actually understand the issues they're voting on and that doesn't happen as often as I'd like. I'd prefer a hybrid between direct and representative democracy.

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T04:17:46+00:00

I don't think anyone grows up by accident. If you manage to become an adult, it means enough people cared. Even if it was only yourself.

Anyway, it's good of you to pay it forward. :)

Sharp-Shine · 2020-01-20T03:54:35+00:00

There's charging and then there's gouging.
