| I think online shooters have more issues than the violent content. They can be over competitive and players may tend to develop a bad attitude, poor sportsmanship, or be influenced by hearing so much online trash talk. |

| I think a lot of Non-Theist or Non-Religious people or Secularists accept the term rather than waste time arguing over minor points, especially if they have a lot of common ground with others who happen to be Anti-Theist such as the late Christopher Hitchens. |

| I have this problem. Supposedly, most people are able to filter conversation in situations like that, but I can't do it. I think I also have a problem with directional audio. Someone could be behind me and say "Hey how's it going." or "Hey, did you hear the news?" and I have trou... |

| I think men lack career certainty in their lives. They may want to settle down, yet feel conflicted about started a family if they don't feel secure in their jobs or financially. Some of them may also be burdened with debt including student loans. In some cases, very hard working men wind up gainful... |

| I'm not sure this has to be about being fearful of automation, but creating a new model around it or even embracing it. It would be nice I think if we can actually adapt to it by creating a world where people don't have to work those crap jobs anymore. Also, I happen to be a truck driver which I thi... |

| It may be a slight touch of being elitist. More in terms of the cuisine of their culture perhaps or food snobbery. Anyway, I'm not sure this Cultural event is exclusionary? Probably anyone can show up for sample or buy this super butter from vendors? Is this friend even a part of this ethnic group? |

| How often are Abortions actually late term? I wonder if this is an example that is exaggerated by the Right. Also, if there is easy access to contraception or Morning After pill termination option, would it be better to stop the pregnancy in the very early stages? In some cases, late term Abortions ... |

Most people who live in countries with universal healthcare are genuinely satisfied with their coverage. They typically pay less mon... |

Another consequence of small apartment living is I do not pursue a fancy home theater. I watch Netflix on my computer, but with my decent Sony headph... |
