You certainly shouldn't get indignant about it. It's one thing to express an dissenting opinion, but throwing a mini-temper tantrum on the Internet is a bit much. Not saying that's what you're up to, but I'm not as

Hmm... here's what you said: > American jets need a shiny aircraft carrier and a coin can mess them up Now it sounds like you're trying to claim that you weren't including American Air Force jets in the term "American

This doesn't sound right. The USAF is the largest air force in the world and, as far as I know, it has exactly 0 air craft carriers. I'm sure a well-placed coin could mess up a lot of machines. Can you back up anything you said wi

Are we sure it's not prevalent? Concussions & CTE weren't widely reported in the NFL until recently. Googling for "rugby cte" turns up articles like this one ( http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/rug

I'm not sure that Congressional term limits are necessarily a good thing. Lobbyists and other special interests don't have term limits. It seems to me that if we impose term limits on Congress members, then the lobbyists will be t

Good effort, but I'm not sure your post makes sense. If I committed the same crime, wouldn't I get the same punishment? In this case, that's being banned from playing Pokemon Go, not from the Internet as a whole.

Wow, lucky them. What crime do I have to commit to be barred from _hearing about_ Pokemon Go?

Is the "analog hole" still an issue for music, now that all-you-can-eat streaming services have become the norm? Is anyone using their 3.5mm jack to capture a Spotify stream?
