    Yes, and that's why it's a bad idea. I have no problem with sites tied to your real identity, such as Facebook, existing. In fact when I was younger, Facebook was quite useful for …

    People will go nuts even with their real names. People will lie even with their real names. See: Facebook. Doesn't stop shit. So don't ruin it for the rest of us. Even if you are n…

    Just off the top of my head, what if I want to use reddit mostly to talk about mundane things like local events in my city or technology and don't really care if that ties back to …

    Uptight conservatives: Your sexual desires are "sinful" Uptight progressives: Your sexual desires are "problematic" The former group certainly tends to have more power, but the lat…

    I'm honestly not sure what Instagram is used for, never had an accent, but I still make new friends without it. I use sms to talk to the ones with no mutual online chat services.

    Did anyone else just spend a bunch of time moving their jaw in different directions after reading this?

    I'm a crazy person who wishes for an airline offering flights with no overhead bins. Personal items only! This would make boarding and deplaning so much faster and more pleasant.

    I worked at a US company that wanted us to put in the extra effort and do work after hours. They tracked this with a summary report of work submitted after 5. So I worked normally …
