powells.com. Largest independent bookstore in the world, they ship to Canada, but it ain't gonna be particularly cheap i'm guessing.

Anyone know what book this is from? I'm guessing from Zdarsky's run of Batman? Feels like a gag he'd write at least.

Stupidity is morally wrong and should be illegal in my opinion

Pure speculation, but I could also easily see it just being kids from other nearby schools that heard about a protest at Columbia and rode the subway up from NYU, or CUNY, or any number of schools in the area. Technically outsiders at that point, but I wouldn't really consider them as such.

It's almost like I was pointing out the age of the account to infer that dude made another account to agree with himself. The usernames alone are kind of a giveaway.

Your account is 11 hours old, yet you know what everyone here is annoyed with? Sure.

The layoffs were after Microsoft bought em.

Nah, fuck that. If she had sick days they are hers to decide how to use em.

Yeah, I thought I might be getting whooshed there, but I also thought there might be people that saw the shit they were selling for real money and just assumed it was a free to play game, cuz clearly this sort of monetization has no place in $70 games, but well...here we are.

Uh...it's not free to play it's $70. So ostensibly it can make its money off its upfront $70 entry fee.

Did you just read the quote of what he said or did you actually listen to it? By the way he says it, it's clear he's using it as a name.

I would say the article even printed the quote wrong. They wrote, "Oh look at that Mercedes, that's pretty good."
They dropped a word and in my opinion got the punctuation wrong. I would quote it as, "Oh look at that, wow. Mercedes, that's pretty good."

While it does seem like something he would do, watch the clip, listen to his cadence. He is not comparing her to a car, he is using Mercedes as a name.

No Mr. Feeny. I'll give it a B-

Mistborn, developed by Insomniac. I feel like they could really do a good push/pull traversal mechanic.

They did one playtest that was 5v5 CTF. Most playtests have been 12v12.

Wait, are you saying yes it's unethical to give fake money to beggars and strippers, or yes, it's ok to give them fake money?

Cuz...it's really not ok to give either of them fake money.

Finally! A stylish shoe for the blind earthbender!

"literally"

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

However, the book DOES have "literary importance," as determined by it winning the National Book Award, winning the Kirkus Prize, and being a Pulitzer finalist.

Though I notice elsewhere in the thread you refer to those as "literature prices" multiple times, and would like to point out that they are, in fact, "prizes". Prices are the cost of things you buy at the store. Prizes are awarded for achievement in a given field.

As such, I do not believe you are fit to be the arbiter of what gets to be taught in English class. It is clear you could use a few lessons on the subject yourself, and besides, before espousing that a book should only be taught in one type of classroom (Social Studies) and not another (English), a person should probably read said book. You clearly haven't.

What makes you think that because they've never had Taco Bell they've never had Mexican food at all?

I have this one, and it just saves the video to an sd card. The review I linked to mentions it's lack of connectivity as a con, but clearly it's not a con if that's what you're looking for.
