Hate: Well, the regional managers for the company are on;y paid a s monthly salary of 2k before taxes.

That averages out to be around 12.50 for a 40 hour week. So yeah. Pay is shit.

Like: Valora makes $14/hr at some marketing firm drawing pixies on the back of tax forms or something.

@Undrask: Economy's just fucked in your area, or what?

That's ridiculous.

Like: Only one more final and then I can breeeeaaaaathe.

You seriously didn't guess tugboat?

Dude, you drew a boat on the water. If you drew a boat pulling another boat I woulda been like "HOLY <something> A TUGBOAT!!!"

And I woulda been like *answers 'tugboat'*

Instead all I got was what looked like the Titanic on some water.

I haven't failed to guess a Draw Something yet. That said, I'm talking in context of people actually trying to make images that make sense. I have to admit that after guessing Yoda instantly on someone, the same person later making Shrek left me going "BUT THERE ARE NO LETTERS FOR YODA HERE". Clue at top even said "Lives in swamp". Brown tunic. Green head. YODA. CLEARLY. I figured it out, but nearly didn't.

Kaden and I are a beast matchup at Draw Something.

I like how the girl behind is just strolling casually, only bothering to look like she gives the slightest shit when the taxi driver runs over. That's what everyday, run of the mill evil people look like.

? To me, she had just walked into the field of vision as the taxi guy got there. I can't assume what she was doing during the time off screen, as its possible she simply didn't see it happen and only noticed because of the taxi driver's sudden action, wondering what the hell happened. That said, she could have also just been caught in the bystander effect and been staring, hand on mouth, in shock, which is pretty much an involuntary reaction until something (like the cab driver's response) shakes you out of it.

The REAL asshole in this story is the reporter. "Now you see her... now you don't!" Yeah, how about a MAGIC TRICK, ASSHOLE?

There's a bunch of potential reasons she could have not seen what happened. But she was walking in the same direction, not far behind, and it's kinda hard to miss someone dropping through the ground. But it was probably just everyday evil, where you see something you could stop and you keep looking ahead. Even if I knew for sure, I wouldn't call her an asshole, but I like pointing these things out.

Eh, that's working on the assumption that she's paying ANY attention whatsoever to what's ahead of her (or that there isn't a corner, shop exit, whatever just past the camera). I tend to walk a lot either staring at my cell phone reading something, looking around at random shit, or even just staring blankly ahead on autopilot. If you were to ask me something as easy as "what color jacket did that person twenty feet ahead of you have on?" (guessing she was around that distance behind) or "did they randomly stop and throw a football across the road", I would probably have no idea. If someone were to just fucking drop through the ground out of nowhere, without warning, and I were in an every day location and not fucking Iraq or something where I might expect something crazy (and thus be paying attention), then I suspect that I would be processing the information still. It'd probably take me about five seconds to go "wait, I could have sworn someone was in front of me... What's that taxi driver stopping for? Oh no fucking way!" Shit, that's working under the assumption that she wasn't standing around trying to catch the taxi driver's attention for a ride, causing him to slow down and see the girl drop in the first place.

I don't know, man, I guess we just see two different perspectives here. I didn't get the impression that the lady was going "Whoa, bitch fell through a hole. Meh, cunt. /shit-in-hole-for-comedic-exaggeration" (aka - expecting someone else to deal with it because she is in a hurry or something).

The really every day evil is that there will be no information on this actually in China. All attempts to see this video or news articles will probably pull up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLKiknDbFjA instead, or something about how wonderful the country is.

I like how we're judging people via video footage based on events that occurred on the other side of the planet. We have absolutely zero information on the alleged evil teenager and yet...she's evil.
