Peak web design are sites that have links only found in the footer, but because of infinite scrolling the footer gets pushed down when more content loads so you can never reach the footer.

Especially ironic that he's including kayaking in there. You know, that boat without any significance to Inuit peoples, totally invented by red blooded Americans, with a very American-sounding name.

Probably found out "kayak" originally meant "men's boat."

Women used a larger open topped boat for net fishing in small groups.

Actually, for the record, just this past spring I was taking a class on 18th century literature, the era of the birth of the modern novel, and we spent a while examining the anti-novel sentiments that were widespread in the 1700s. So much of the whining and pearl clutching about morality and wasted time is functionally identical to modern criticisms about video games.

There's a thing called joli-laid: French term for "pretty-ugly". He has an extremely striking face, and he uses it well. He's also tall and fit.

e: Re novels, there's a huge rant in one of Jane Austen's books (maybe Persuasion?) about how great novels are, so she was clearly feeling the sting.

Adam Driver seems like a decent guy who has used his Star Wars/Girls clout for picking good, interesting projects that he's good in.

He's good enough, just not given a ton to work with, especially since the writing between the three films is all over the place about his character's internal life and motivation.

If you also said that stuff like MMA was also a waste of time Joe Rogan would probably be like "Nuh Uh, You use punching people creatively EVERYDAY!"

calling things "a Waste of time" is a Boomer rear end saying because it usually means, "Not helping me or making me money"

He's saying it because he used to be balls deep in quake and it basically took over his life, so now he won't touch games.

Again, overindulgence is a thing and loads of media are designed to hijack your attention center... but Rogan showing signs of addictive behavior and blaming something else why that would be wholly inconsistent!
