2016-03-05 at 1:07 AM UTC in How beer cuckholds you"cucked by beer". Bill Krozby, is there anything that doesn't cuck you? You get cucked so often I really can't help but get the impression you're the most cucked guy around. King of cucks. The cucked crusader. Cuck a doodle do. Cucks gone crazy. Chicken McCuckets.Kissed by Lady Cuck. The man from nancucket. Collector of autism cucks. A cuckstaposition of contrasting elements. Master in the martial art of nuncucks. Leader of the Might Cucks. When you go to a wedding or funeral you wear a cucksedo. Bill Krozby "Don't fucks with the cucks" Bill Krozbyler.
Phytoestrogens are less than 1% as powerful as the estrogens produced in the human body. You couldn't feminize yourself with them if you were trying to.
This is true. The level of male anxiety around phytoestrogens is top-tier hilarious. -
2016-03-05 at 12:19 AM UTC in Far Cry PrimalI didn't enjoy FC2 at all but was really pleasantly surprised by 3 even if it was piss easy, it got fun right. The XP system kinda corrected for that, you got rewarded for doing more difficult things so you sorta picked your own level of what acceptably challenging is and got a payoff for being more aggressive although it broke somewhere between 50-75% completion when you ran out of useful skills to take and were more or less obligated to blaze through the remainder of the game in a manic run'n'gun rage, deprived of the sweet sweet, dopamine surge inducing, XP hunt that had fueled the entire prior gameplay (because the story sure as shit didn't do it).
Anyway, I'm similarly curious if primal is fun. It seems like a total giaden title, but then that can still be fun, especially with the increasingly noticeable "fun over realism" bent the franchise has taken. -
2016-03-04 at 11:56 PM UTC in My Top Three Best Books of 2016Yeah, admittedly I have a huge broner for Camus. I preferred his other famous work, The Myth of Sisyphus, by strength of being generally more direct, more intellectual (the christian judge thing tends to be a red herring to a lot of people who are reading The Stranger as an introduction to existentialism). That said I don't dislike it, I think it was a work that had its intended effect in its time and for a while after but I think there's a tendency to take it out of context today.

AAAARRGH, IT BURRRNNS! The goggles did nothing!
Damn delayed reaction, I thought I was immune/resistant. Although, hopefully this will help build immunity/resistance. Fortunately I had some good ointment on hand with calamine and pramocaine. That pic is hours after I applied a liberal amount.
I wasn't exaggerating about the kind of hiking I do…
That looks nasty. You're thinking poison oak or something? Knowing the amount of stuff you take have you considered drug allergy/adverse interaction? -

Nice, but watch this.

sorry to bust your burble but donald trump won't win. He's part of military/media psyop used to distract americans from obama ensuring he has a third term that or mitt romney will be president. study it up buttholes
Hey Bill Krozby, 100% serious post here: if Obama or Romney win the 2016 election I will publicly make a thread stating that you were totally right and almost every idea I have about american politics is wrong. I will do this, if I fail to you can quote this post and call me out as a liar and phony. Are you confident enough of your position to do the same? That if neither Obama or Romney win in 2016, you'll openly admit that you were wrong and seriously reconsider your views in light of that evidence?
Further (but separately, don't feel any obligation to take me up on this) would you be interested in betting money on it? I'm willing to wager any amount from 1 cent to the estimated $20,000 it would cost to start up Bill Krozby dog that neither of those candidates will be the next president of the USA.
I mean everything in this post 100% seriously and hope we can engage seriously, as intelligent and intellectually honest adults, about our respective opinions on the coming election. -

Do you think that Machiavelli and Trump have much in common? I find some striking similarities in their work and would be inclined to say that Trump's role in American politics is something of a distorted version of what Machiavelli was doing. Granted Machiavelli was much more an advisory man politically than a leading figure but in terms of business and as a deal maker his name will forever be on the books so to speak. I think Trump is what you get that if you combined 1/3 Machiavelli and 1/ 3 Mussolini and 1/3 Vespasian. And as a fan of those three people I think that Trump is going to win the presidency and Make America Great Again.
Well it depends if you mean Machiavelli as the views represented by The Prince or Machiavelli in light of his total life and works (as in the theory that The Prince was actually satire). Either way I don't see any alignment with Trump above and beyond the sense in which every american politician pays lip service to notions of democracy and liberty and the way almost all of the right and most of the left are either for, or scared shittless of opposing, massive defense budgets (which I'd argue are contradictory ideals, but that much is inevitable when you dive into the dark and intellectually desolate world of american minarchism).
While the rhetoric around wall building certainly can conjure authoritarian imagery, and while I find it personally distasteful regardless, I think you can make a reasonable argument for it while upholding liberal (as opposed to authoritarian) views as Trump largely does. If anything he's a mere caricature of neoconservativism with just enough libertarian flavor sprinkled on to get a begrudged vote out of the weird surge that movement experienced around the last election. -
2016-03-04 at 9:02 AM UTC in My Top Three Best Books of 2016The Stranger, As I Lay Dying, and that Salinger short story collection (not the one published recently) were the three books I read for fun last year. Kinda embarrassing level of intake but w/e. I think I enjoyed Salinger's the most, reading him outside of the endlessly repeated analysis Catcher in the Rye is always submitted to was more fun. The Stranger was also pretty readable, a little angsty at points but then I suppose so is Salinger. As I Lay Dying was interesting, it felt pretty dense to me. Not a super thick book but it was just so slow moving that it felt oppressive to read. In spite of that I felt something for the characters by the end, in a sort of detached way. The whole thing was just surreal and alien to read.

I used to hang out with a bunch of girls who watched that fucking shit show OC California. What does OC stand for in this context?
I lived in "the" OC, most of the show was actually filmed in Venice Beach. It wasn't such a bad parody of what newport beach (the area that the show is supposed to be about) is, sadly. -

Do you look up to those people because I think I wouldn't even piss on them. Except that girl there of course. She would get it good.
Is this US Punk nowadays? The dudes from "Workaholics"? Fuck man… dudes here still walk around with leather jackets, safety pin piercings and rats on their shoulders. Violent as fuck, too. SMH.
Punk isn't about the way you dress.
Also I'd like to point out true patricians only listen to ITAOTS one way:

2016-03-03 at 5:29 AM UTC in The website obesity crisis
Also, is this site bloated? We have the changing banners but I think they pass the Taft Test…..
Yeah, at least it's a lot heavier than a forum should be. vB5 was just poorly designed in a lot of ways. Cold cache page load cost me 1.0MB and spanned ~56 requests (a big part of that second number are unsprited icons which I could actually see an argument for but it's questionable). -
2016-03-03 at 5:26 AM UTC in The website obesity crisisYeah, saw this on HN a few weeks ago, I generally agree. There's a lot of really excessive over engineering for fairly simple stuff. A particularly humorous vicious cycle I see a lot is "pages load slow, so let's make that an XHR call" which leads to needing these big gnarly pieces of infrastructure to support the XHR and rerender the relevant parts of the page async, which leads to longer load times, which leads to putting even more stuff on XHR until you end up with loading screens for your website and life is shit.
I do think there's a tendency to read these pro-minimalism pieces (remember when motherfucking website and its derivatives were making the rounds a few years back?) and run too far in the opposite direction, particularly vulnerable to this kind of thinking are novices who, consciously or not, see it as a cheap way to claim expertise. Like in the case I mentioned above, XHR is perfectly valid and strictly necessary in a lot of situations but in the wrong place is just hurts user experience. -
2016-03-03 at 5:12 AM UTC in Someone explain this shit
I don't believe you. What's your rational for buying an iphone over an Android phone? Genuinely interested. IIRC Apple has something like a 40% profit margin and 90% of smartphone profits (probably inaccurate, but around that range). Says a lot about the people that buy their products, paying for a brand name/label (although there is the intellectual property issue).
It's true, I would take a picture of it but the camera is kinda attached to it so... could use a webcam on my computer I guess but I don't care enough. The reason I bought an iphone is because I have exactly zero interest in ricing my phone and my use cases are simple enough that . The three things I do with my phone are read email, text, and listen to music. The first two are simple enough that OS doesn't really matter and the music story has always been better on iOS than android, for hopefully obvious reasons. General OS chrome is better in iOS too, although that's a bit subjective. Then there's physical considerations, build quality is generally better (yes you can find well built android devices but they almost always have something wrong with them, be it shitty battery life, crappy screens, or poor form factors (I have a 5s, it's the perfect form factor to me, the trend towards oversize screens is just a reflection of the general misuse of phones these days)), battery life is good (again, 5s, I can't speak to newer models, I know the battery case thing happened but that's a reason not to by that particular model), screen is better than anything you'll find in android land. God knows I have no love for apple, I just think they make a better product for what I want out of a phone. -
