Over a month later, the police officer who flipped that teenage girl in a class still hasn't been charged, has he?

He was fired, but I don't see charges. I know the district was fighting to not have them filed. - Jennifer D. - -

Yes, that seems reasonable, especially since he's facing action on a wholly different case. - Jennifer D. - -

It fails, promote it more, it fails harder, keep pushing it, then finally quietly retire it and fire a VP. Then repeat. - Andrew C - [ 2 ] -

How Elmo Ruined Sesame Street (http://kotaku.com/how-elm... ) http://i.kinja-img.com/ga...

9 years ago from Bookmarklet - Comment - Hide - - [ 2 ] -

"Clash's interpretation of Elmo aged the character down. Whereas Hunt had given the character a gruff, caveman gimmick, Clash molded the Muppet into a three-and-a-half-old who embodied love--lots of hugs and lots of kisses. And thus, Elmo was born. Taken by himself, the character was lovable, but not substantial. His main job was to be unfailingly cute, cheerful, and naive--namely, to act like a happy three-and-a-half year-old." - Andrew C - -

"Now admittedly, it's impossible to get a three-year-old like Elmo to care about someone's needs before his own, let alone ask important, deeper questions about solitude and personal safety. But that's exactly my point; a three-year-old Muppet should not be the lead for this show. Elmo used to embody childlike characteristics that children should be moving away from. But now, he's modeling, for four and five-year-old children, behavior they should have already left behind. The show used to recognize this and poked gentle fun at Elmo's immaturity. But in recent times, the writers have forgotten to. " - Andrew C - -

If chimp DNA is 95% similar to human DNA, then that "92% match" rating from OK Cupid doesn't look so special now, does it.

does it imply that if chimps were on OKcupid we would happily date them ? - Lorenzo R v R - -

At Star Wars themed weddings, do the grooms ever try the "I love you/I know" exchange? If so, is the marriage annulled immediately?

Well, the other option is that you find out unexpectedly that you're related, so that's also a non-starter. - Jennifer D. - [ 6 ] -

Curious to hear how many politicians think people on a terror watch list shouldn't be allowed to fly.

9 years ago from Android - Comment - Hide - - [ 2 ] -

The "you can buy guns but not fly" beautifully inverts the idiotic cars/guns comparison that gun nuts use which ignores that cars are primarily not for killing. - Andrew C - -

If "being on the terror watch list" isn't enough to not allow gun purchase, then how can "not having money" be? Full subsidies for guns!

"And that's the heart of the matter. The deeper you dive into the data, the more you realize that Curry isn't just a deadly efficient shooter, but he's also virtually immune to burden. As he has been asked to produce more and more, he hasn't gotten any less efficient. (Economists would say Curry has nearly constant1 returns to scale.) The question is: How much additional shooting volume could Curry handle while still remaining the Warriors' best option?" - Andrew C - -
