Blaming all our ills on some foreign influence instead of owning it as a part of you is the first step to underestimating its effects, and missing how best to fix it.
“Evil” is a human invention to excuse the inexcusable so we don’t have to face the dark parts of ourselves.
If I could turn it off…
Would the people who have to deal with hardware not be… where the hardware is? They seem to be sitting in random places.
Seems pretty obvious it’s marketing, not reality, though.
Going to the store means going outside and dealing with people.
The world has been ending for a long long time. This is just the latest speed boost we’ve run over.
Simply destroying something is the easy road. Because it means you don’t have to think about what the problem is, only know that it’s bad.
It’s definitely harder to build something from nothing, but that’s not the “solution” being offered. It’s tomorrow’s problem that you don’t have to worry about yet.
It’s not the easier solution, but it is the easier thought.
Did she not? Is that an obviously silly flaw, or just some dumb internet argument keyboard warriors throw out to try and prove how obviously intellectually superior they are?
It’s a fucking movie, not a scientific study.
And he probably would have said “no, I want you to live” her being his one true love and all.
Rose and Jack? Probably not.
I take it you didn’t actually watch the mythbusters episode, then. If they both just climbed on the door they would have both died. They would have had to jury-rig a contraption using the life-preserver Rose was wearing to survive… barely.
Only if they had the knowledge and abilities (and time to come up with a plan) of two people whose job it is to come up with exactly this kind of thing.
Sure, it was possible. That doesn’t make it probable.
Only if they both had the knowledge and frame of mind to engi her flotation devices from the life vest rose was wearing. Otherwise the door would have sunk enough for them to freeze to death before rescue came. Provides they knew rescue was coming after a certain time.
Considering one was a socialite, and the other a freelance artist, and both had just almost been killed multiple times… no, I don’t think they would have had the foresight to come up with the exact scenario that would have saved them both.
I made a donation to a psychiatric help charity in both your names.
How weirdly overpowered they are?
Ooh, looks like someone lost an argument and is now downvoting me for it…
I suppose a subjective win is still a win, I suppose.
Ah, so we allow lots of other detrimental and dangerous things, so we shouldn’t be so persnickety about this either. That’s what you’re saying. We should overindulge, not be overcautious.
Mayhaps if people were less of a bitch about it, it would be realistic and reasonable.
Two car lengths? You absolute madman! That’s positively grotesque!
For the purposes of this comment, I’m assuming that cars are about fifty feet long.
The lead singer of Spinal Tap would totally go to the Good Place, though.
We have more than enough space and resources to grow for a long time. The majority of the limits we are stressing are inventions by the haves to keep the have-nots in check.
