He has a little tie and everything!

That’s a function of how they’re trained though. They match human behavior patterns because that’s what they were designed and built to do, not because they actually think/process like we do or are of near equal intellect.

And yet has been discussed publicly, at large, in court, and even during a presidential address or two, albeit indirectly.

It was good

Eh, Niven did it first.

That’s a complete load!

Given Klingon mating rituals I always assumed Worf was the submissive one.

Sweet guinea pig of Winnipeg!

It’s a pun, or sarcasm at least.

Same here. Really pissed me off, especially because I was relying on Steam to notify me when it was released so I missed it by two weeks.

So it’s like nicotine gum for shopping addicts?

I’ve started getting these. Its a little odd. The latest one I received told me it shipped “2 camera and 1 kitchen item”. The camera items were a baby monitor and a mount for the baby camera and the kitchen item were coffee filters. So I guess it’s accurate but kind of a useless description.

“So he spent the entire time talking about honor, but the second I told him I was late he just muttered something about having to go on an expedition to the Gamma quadrant and never returned my comms!”

You should try and stick with it. It is scary, but also a really great game.

Plus there’s a musical number.

I’m not kidding.

That push happened in the US too around the same time, but it only focused on Chinese food. News outlets made a big fuss about it, yet rarely if ever pointed out how widely MSG was used in the US outside of Chinese food.

The claim was that MSG caused headaches based on research from the 70s and 80s, which has had mixed results in studies throughout the years and now has no strong link IIRC.

Either way its usage is personal preference, like any other spice or cooking method, and I wholeheartedly agree with your first point about subbing msg.

Lee Child’s series has its good books, but there are a LOT of books that follow the same pattern and have the same formula, and it just gets boring. I like it when Reacher is crafty or does something truly unique. I think Lee child could’ve had a much better (albeit much shorter) series if he stuck to those unique moments and stories, and stayed away from the formulaic ones that you know exactly how they’ll play out.
