The only thing that bugs me more than what shapiro actually says is how many people think he's a good debater. Talking over your opponent louder/faster and with the smugness cranked to 11 is not debating. It's being an rear end in a top hat. Respectable people turn down his offers for debate not because they think they'll be "DESTROYED" but because they have more important things to do than be shouted at by this guy and then be accused of anti-semitism when you call him out for being a dick.

That's why it was really satisfying to see this far-right BBC fuckstick own the poo poo out of Shapiro by doing little more than treat him like an adult. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRF3r3zUGqk

The first Ben Shapiro thing I ever saw was in some roundtable where he refused to call a trans person a woman because it offends him or something. He's a child bitch.

If you hate that little rodent, there's an episode of Chapo Trap House where they just make fun of him and riff his terrible book for an hour straight. It's hilarious and very cathartic to listen to. I think that was the origin of "Ben Shapiro only debates 19 year olds with blue hair who are already crying".

It was a little more threatening than that, but yeah he did have a big tantrum over it. He's like the guy who keeps goading their older sibling in to punching them and crying to their parents when they actually hit them. Don't intentionally rile people up if you aren't willing to deal with the consequences.

Monopoly is a fine and quick game if everyone sticks to the rules-as-written and you don't try to houserule the poo poo out of it. None of this 'money goes in free parking' bullshit, and make sure you actually auction properties off if no one wants them.

Monopoly's only redeeming value is that it makes your wannabe chud/liberal friends out themselves as people who need to live at the bottom of the Mariana Trench.

An important part of fashion is knowing what works for you imo. There are dudes that have always looked good like that. There are dudes who never will, and know it, so wear different clothes. Lil' Ben is neither. He also doesn't have facial expressions besides "sneer" and "scowl" so in his credit, he probably doesn't look good in anything.

All we need to do is tie the purchase of anything to your identity. I mean, why not? A lot of people want to do away with cash, so it would make it convenient that we wouldn't even have to change much to make this possible. Just keep paying with your card, and if any of your trash gets found, you get punished. The only potential hickup is a trash bag breaking in transit, but we could fix that by putting all the information on tags on the trash bag that have to be scanned every time they are picked up, so the ownership transfers to the garbage collectors as soon as they touch it.

Talking over your opponent louder/faster and with the smugness cranked to 11 is not debating. You are correct, but this is how everyone debates now (or possibly how everyone has always debated). It's not about being true to your own values or hearing out what your opposition has to say, its about shutting them out before they can think of an argument so that they look like a fool. This is why debates as a whole are useless in this day and age, its all about looking good rather than trying to actually argue anything, and for some reason this also translates to online debates like twitter or these forums, except replace "shutting the opponent out before they can respond" with "getting as many people as you can to start yammering at the guy because he can't respond to everyone at once yeah I eat rear end posted:All we need to do is tie the purchase of anything to your identity.

Tubgoat posted:The bookkeeping would be nightmarish. We'd need at least three of the facilities beneath the Nevada desert (used to track us) to track it all. just automate it. Install a chip inside every citizen that can be used to corporally punish you remotely, and have the chip do it whenever trash of yours is scanned outside of a approved trash zone. People would stop littering pretty fast after they randomly start getting tazed or whatever throughout the day.

House rules are so prevalent because the rules as written are bad.

Yes, the house rules make the game worse, but that doesn't mean it wasn't bad to begin with.

Monopoly is not so much a game as a social occasion and it's mostly about anticipation and just the fun in seeing someone get wrecked by a hotel. The original rules are overcomplicated and there's a reason nobody ever used them.

I have also listened to The Dollop recently. We should rob Loomis. For anyone who isn't familiar, The Dollop is a bi-weekly podcast about American history, and one of the recent episodes is about The Landlord's Game. It's a good listen if you're at all interested in the topic, and/or just want to be smug about Monopoly to people.
