🙅 THE BAD IDEAS THREAD

anti-Latinx racism
WTF is that supposed to be?
-
Latinx = Latino/Latina
-

latin + x, which presumably includes people who speak Portuguese. Or else it was so it didn't have to exclude non-males by saying "latino".

Those guys would have a field day over here in Europe, what with quite a lot of our languages having male and female articles.

No, I'm pretty sure it's a new species of wild cat, analogous to the coywolf.

I probably know tumblrisms a little bit better than you do.

Hey, I lead a Cub Scout pack, I probably know about naturisms better than you.

Different culture, so probably OK?

BTDT, in the nineties I think? All job postings would be suffixed with (M/V). Not helped by the fact male and female versions of some job names stand for completely different professions. Take the word 'secretary': In the case of your office secretary, it would use the female form. In the case of the secretary of defence, it would use the male form.

Thoughtcrime + reeducation. Also, accusing someone of "racial and cultural" incompetence sounds like denying their existence as people or something.
Remind me to move somewhere warmer and cheaper before these people get old enough to get into positions of power.
EDIT: Since we've been on this general subject a lot lately, I think I'll just make that my avatar until further notice.

I'd suggest Latin@, but SJWs would probably jump at the fact that it seems to have a larger ˋOˋ than ˋaˋ.

Naturisms? Uh... what exactly do you do with those kids?

According to a friend of mine who plays a lot of Fallout, Fallout 4 contains several characters that can be romanced, and all of them are bisexual.
Sheesh, when Dwarf Fortress has more realistic human interactions than your game that you spent brazilians of dollars on, you're doing something wrong.
-
It's a post-apocalyptic wasteland. You don't get to be picky.
-
I don't see how an apocalypse can turn people gay. Maybe heterosexual due to the "the human race will die out if we don't" factor, but otherwise it shouldn't affect your sexuality.
-
Maybe all the straight people are taken?
-
Then why would 100% of the remaining people be bisexual? If nobody heterosexual can find a mate, wouldn't that mean everyone remaining was gay, not bisexual?

- Gay is neither the same as, nor a subset of, bisexual
- What makes you think it affected their sexuality? Maybe only bisexuals survive?
-
Seconded @CoyneTheDup

THIS JUST IN: ATOMIC BOMBS INEFFECTIVE AGAINST BISEXUAL PEOPLE

Fallout is in a constant state of being hit by atomic bombs? I feel like the name should be much more exciting. MASSIVE EXPLOSIONS: NEW VEGAS
-
The intro cutscene contains [spoiler]an atomic bomb going off and the blast going within a foot of the elevator the player goes into the vault with.[/spoiler] Which is totally something that can happen without everyone involved dying.
-
Sure it is, if they're bisexual.
-
You're overthinking the realism of a computer game.
Which is odd for someone who plays both Guild Wars 2 and Dwarf Fortress.
-

That was true of Skyrim, too. I think it's a great idea that the game lets the player choose their orientation and the orientation of their companions. Why fucking not?
The medieval fantasy world of Skyrim beat most real US States into having gay marriage, go figure. (Not MY State though. Fuck the rest of the US.)

... what do you propose would have killed them exactly? Did you watch the cutscene? They were sheltered from the blast wave, and not close enough to get enough rads. Or are you just a believer in Fox's global warming theories, where people die "just because of... uh... stuff."
The biggest inaccuracy, now that I think about it, is that the blast wave was traveling TOO FAST. It wouldn't go much faster than the speed of sound, if even that fast. EDIT: actually since they heard the bomb the SPEED OF SOUND ITSELF was too fast. Huh.
-

I'm always surprised when I find a game that acknowledges that there is such a thing as a limit to how fast sound can travel.
-
It wouldn't go much faster than the speed of sound
They have their own "physics" there as well then?
-
-
They were sheltered from the blast wave
The top of the elevator didn't close in that cutscene. If one foot of air can stop a bomb's blast, I'd like to invest in some air.
-
Bad idea: Putting the power button on your PC up near the top, right where you would expect the CD eject button to be when reaching down to it
-
Why would you expect the CD eject button to be above the CD tray and almost as tall as the entire drive enclosure?
-
The top of the elevator didn't close in that cutscene.
Right; but they were behind concrete barrier tall enough to deflect the blast wave.
If one foot of air can stop a bomb's blast, I'd like to invest in some air.
A platform made of heavy concrete can stop a bomb's blast. That's kind of the exact reason that platform was built.

Some site from where I grabbed the story I heard on the radio:
A Kentucky man [...] tried to apply for a job with the Wayne County Sheriff's Department.
[...]
The Wayne County Sheriff's Department was just as shocked as anyone else when it discovered 25-year-old John Wesley Rose, who was wanted for several sex crimes including rape, sodomy and sex abuse involving a 14 year old girl, applied for a job as a jail deputy.

Bad idea: when a user opts to update to the new Windows 10 build, the installer removes all the bindings. Without IP4, "Client for Microsoft Networks", and so on, the PC is all alone.

PC is all alone
On the plus side, they can't file a bug report that there's a problem with the installation....
Oh wait, I just remembered this isn't the Evil Ideas thread...
