Sorry for being on a higher horse than you :(

I really love this argument of a high-horse. Like, I barely talk about my diet. Imagine if someone donated their money to charity and wrote that other people should do it. Then you tell them "Get off your high horse, friend!".

I'm not even a vegetarian (sometimes vegan) for health reasons. It's just the moral thing to do. Anyone who doesn't believe it moral to stop unneeded death and suffering is a cruel person.

Gonna need some citation on that one

I'm not here to do research for you dude. It's a self-apparent.

Is a tree likely to have a disease in it? Is a rock?

actually yes i am and i'm also suggesting that you're appearing to be somewhat like freelee and vegan gains

Then you're lying to yourself. Most vegans are just dieting temporarily so they can lose weight.

though you were trying to argue that you weren't saying this last time lmao

Uh? I'm sorry? I've held the stance that eating vegan is the moral and healthy choice for the last 12+ years of my life.

are you suggesting that veganism is not healthy

actually it's that non-meat and non-dairy food is much less likely to be infected with disease. most vegan food isn't from "vegan food creators". it's literally stuff like dillpickle potato chips. anything that isn't from an animal.

imagine if i said "I've never seen a mac get a virus" and you posted stories about macs getting viruses. it's totally missing the point.

sorry for eating healthier and more morally than you guys though :(

except the point was that I couldn't recall it dude. You're link is irrelevant.

Tons of stuff is recalled. 99% of it is not vegan. That's the point.

do you think like all meat has some infectious disease in it

no but up to 372 thousand pounds of hotdogs do. i can't recall any instance of vegan food ever getting recalled.

This is a terrible idea. Like, how will the Pokemon look?

Either they will be creepy-ass 3D cartoons hanging out along real people, or you'll be able to look into Pikachu's hyperrealistic bloodshot eyes.

Ma, look! A MewTwo!

what the hell? was this article written by dreamworks

It appears as though Universal and DreamWorks Animation’s goal is to release an even balance of original intellectual properties (Trolls, Boss Baby, Shadows) and franchise installments (The Croods 2, How to Train Your Dragon 3, Shrek 5) on an annual basis over the upcoming years. It’s a strategy that should serve the studios well, as it will allow DreamWorks to avoid burning out its audience with a wave of sequels, prequels, and/or spinoffs, while at the same time continuing to create original material that, should it be well-received, could in turn give rise to new DreamWorks franchises too.

this reads so unnaturally. like it's straight from the dreamworks site

I don't think I have ever seen a keyboard without gaps between the keys. even those with taller keycaps, with no other plastic between them, still have gaps between the area of the caps that you can actually use

... You've never seen a keyboard without gaps between the keys, but you're complaining that he posted keyboards with... gaps between the keys?

I'll reiterate what I said a long time ago.

Censoring 'hate speech' from social media does absolutely nothing to address the problem. It gives the impression that these problems no longer exist, while only driving bigots into underground circles where they can echo their beliefs unchallenged and become more hateful.

The only way that people can combat racism is by having an open conversation, and throwing someone out because they've said something offensive violates the entire purpose of the conversation to begin with. You just end up with more and more insular communities like SJW-tumblr-circles and /pol/ that serve no purpose but to allow people with like-minded beliefs to circlejerk and radicalize.

That being said, if someone is doing absolutely nothing but hurling slurs at another user, it's fair to ban them for posting unconstructive spam. For instance, it doesn't appear as though the guy in the article was making a substantive argument. He was just harassing a stranger.

you're exactly right. The other thing is that you'll also matyrize them.

I was recently permanently banned from a subreddit I like to visit called /r/offmychest for posting in /r/The_Donald, the primary Donald Annoying Orange sub. I was posting to defend myself after a few users quoted me and started calling me SJW. I was giving them stuff, not supporting Annoying Orange. However, /r/OffMyChest apparantly has a bot to auto-perma users who post there, so they can keep Annoying Orange supporters off of their sub.

That pissed me off so much it almost made me want support Annoying Orange and that subreddit. I wanted to go back there and apologize to them just because they are unfairly getting stuff and we are programmed to support victims even if they are totally wrong.

BTW flat keyboards are disgusting. they make me feel like I'm on a mac or a tablet. A good keyboard is slanted so it naturally comforts your hand

there are visible gaps between the keys on both of the keyboards you posted about...

Not on my Apex.

But I'm looking at getting a SteelSeries Apex 350

Got this, it's really good. Unfortunately if you are rough on your keyboards it might not be a good choice--it's extremely fragile. The two edge pieces that go over the light broke off recently, and the two rubber keyboard stands got tugged off almost instantly. These haven't really affected my use--they were mostly just aesthetic.

I like it because it's extremely long. I can put it between the arm-rests on my chair and put my feet up on the desk for extreme comfort. To use it properly you'll need the SteelSeries Engine, which can be a pain to install and use. Once you get it though, it's really customizable and you can do a LOT with the macros. I bound my m1-12 keys to copypastas and ascii faces, and mx1-mx10 to game keybinds, like the button combos to open certain menus.

It's a really good keyboard, and it's not very loud. Sadly it isn't mechanical, but the differences between dome and mechanical keyboards have never been huge for me, so I'm okay with it. The keys pop out easily and are easy to clean.

Idk if this is common, but my ESC key has to be pressed really hard in order to register. I've learned to just press it hard though.

Probably my favorite keyboard ever, just for it's comfort (I don't use a wristpad so the in-built one is very nice) and it's length means I can very comfortably hang it over my lap. I usually like to sit in a position where my legs rest on the desk and my keyboard is in my lap, and that's not nearly as easy with another.

yiannopolous is an idiot but far worse than he is twitter's new SJW stances. can't you report twitter posts for disagreeing with you now?
