Comment preview: Louis Theroux is brilliant in this episode. He simply refuses to be flustered by any of the people he meets. What's brilliant is that they're so used to only ever interacting with people who agree with them or who are enraged and disgusted by them and Lou ....

Comment preview: I took an Environmental Awareness (it was mandated because I work with HAZMAT, don't laugh too hard) where the instructor was a chemical engineer. One of the smartest people I've ever talked to - the guy had been on dozens of projects and seemed to know ev ....

Comment preview: Ever notice how feminists seem to think everything that agrees with their ideology is great and brilliant and insightful and everything that disagrees with it is poorly made, sloppy, and unsupported? Even ignoring any issues of ideology, this is a *fucking ....

Comment preview: I was just thinking of that example, also Kill Bill has many scenes in an action movie with non-man-related dialogue between women. I'm guessing there were other problems with this woman's writing, but she saw it as a grand conspiracy theory. Is it really ....

Comment preview: Right, because pharma executives need legislation to make sure they can make billions off of people suffering in other countries as well. Why should pharma executives only be able to rake billions of people suffering in this country, it's totally not fair. ....

Comment preview: The novel *is* shit. Just imagine what a pornographic book written by a mid-life cridis woman would be like and listen when women talk about 50 shades of grey. When I read it is was 1:1 exactly as I had expected. You can basically talk in-depth about it wi ....

Comment preview: It's astounding how insightful the "clueless gamer" is. I mean, in this review he kind of did a great job at pointing out how frustrating and annoying fail states are. In other games as well as this, he does a great job at pointing out the absurdity of s ....

Comment preview: I'm going to answer because I answer in /r/askmen. Sometimes we miss stuff. Or we see things in a different way. Sometimes OP wants a view from women but in reality insight from anyone is helpful. We deal with loads of relationship questions that would pro ....

Comment preview: To all you whiners: It was a tutorial. It was a very good one. But it was a tutorial for animators. It wasn't a tutorial on how to draw or how to animate or how to use flash. That is all assumed. It was a fantastic tutorial on how the traditional walk cycl ....

Comment preview: So we seem to have two kinds of people responding to this comment, the ones who say he wasn't revolutionary at all, and the ones saying that he was revolutionary, but for incorrect reasons. Both are equally stupid. He's done revolutionary work. He's done a ....

Comment preview: Your analysis _DanNYC_ was thought provoking and insightful. Please add me to the newsletter that will make me aware of future comments you make so I may be enlightened in the future. My email is [email protected]. Now allow me to t ....

Comment preview: I'm a biological researcher and unfortunately I'm constantly amazed at how little my colleagues know about philosophy. Too be honest, it is a little upsetting. They are so obsessed with the empirical world they forget to learn the underpinnings and fabri ....

Comment preview: > For the first time in the entire series, we see Walt in a situation where we, the viewers, don't know exactly what he's done. Brilliant insight! I know when I got to that point in the series, I spent a long time after that episode hoping for other rea ....

Comment preview: This isn't really an answer, but I am currently teaching in Korea and have a one-on-one class this semester with a brilliant middle school student. She is beyond the curriculum that is being taught to her, so I convinced my boss to let me finish the curric ....

Comment preview: Honestly, one of the saddest things to come to light from this whole Hulk Hogan debacle, is the sheer number of inarticulate red-pill chugging closeted racists that have scuttled into view. I'm aware that a portion of pro-wrestling's demographic has always ....

Comment preview: Seamus Heaney's translation is probably a more interesting translation to read - it is a close translation that is poetry in itself. Mike is definitely right about Tolkien's translation being dry, as his is as true as possible without attempting to maintai ....

Comment preview: Harley actually is rather interesting. Unfortunately when she began to become increasingly popular she also was made increasingly slutty. A brief synopsis of her history if you weren't familiar. Brilliant (though morally grey) psychiatrist attempts to make ....

Comment preview: These days? Freud. Even many psychologists treat him like he was a misguided buffoon, a sort of scientific Mr. Magoo. I certainly thought so. All I knew was about penis envy and other weird ideas he had about female sexuality that were pretty off the wal ....

Comment preview: My uncles are conjoined twins, so I think I have a little insight into this question. I'm going to assume that one of the twins is either unaware of the crime or resistant to it, because otherwise they would clearly be an accomplice. The fact is, if one o ....

Comment preview: My girlfriend has paranoid schizophrenia. She told me the very first day we met and it didn't phase me at all. I ended up leaving a 10 year relationship to be with her and we're still together 2 years later and more in love than ever. I'd be lying if I sai ....

Comment preview: > I believe that this came at considerable cost to innovation. By the end of the decade, the people at Intel were complaining to me bitterly about Microsoft: what the PC could do was completely dependent upon what Microsoft s software allowed it to do. ....

Comment preview: Either *1984* or *Brave New World*. They're not crap, but it's slightly irritating when people talk about the messages those books put across. We get it. You're not an intellectual special snowflake because you're discussing what those novels have to say a ....

Comment preview: It was... so many years ago on a beautiful, spring day. reddit was sitting in a little cafe, just browsing through all of its links contentedly like a teacher reading about that one, bright student who had made it big. Then, suddenly, it stumbled upon a t ....

Comment preview: You're thinking on the surface level. Like a lot of the misguided listeners, you're thinking, "If Kanye says something that comes across as clever or insightful, it's deep." But that's an extremely pre-modern way to look at art. The way he interacts with t ....

Comment preview: Two questions for you Monte: 1. Describe the inception process for the Renegade brand, and how did the design of the logo and the branding campaign develop within the organization? I found it to be quite brilliant with the twitter profile pictures days bef ....
