I have no problems with it, so I guess I'm some sort of savant? There is such thing as good and bad UI, but I think this is a case of 'what you're used to' causing problems with 'what is.'

Beautiful country, good race car drivers.

Oh, I thought you were asking why people were carrying wallets. My ID is in there, is my reason. I can't carry my credentials on my phone, so a slim wallet is my answer.

As a former teenage boy, sometimes it's really just soap and soap scum and dirt and whatever else caught in the hair rather than anything else.

Also, for anyone caught in a sticky situation, cold water to keep the proteins from denaturing and getting sticky in the first place, and if all else fails use shampoo to try to emulsify it to stick to the water instead of the floor, to make little sewer babies with your neighbors.

Car-centric infrastructure, baybee! Better have those credentials or you might get shot or imprisoned! Or both!

Big Hanlon fan, but I don't think stupidity is enough to explain why the site behaves that way.

Nah, it's a lunch/deli situation, where you can order a sandwich or get a salad, so they also have soda fountains like this.

Fuckin.... Goddamnit. Thanks for letting me know.

It's still fun, though. I think it has a cohesive look that I would call "visually distinct for gaming purposes" rather than specifically beautiful.

Yet it's neither a web nor a forum. Curious.

To be fair, it was a video game aimed at children to teach them how to be good soldiers during a time when the US was entering a deeply unpopular war under false pretenses.

Around the same time there were all sorts of lawsuits surrounding video games and their effects on children, so maybe it was a double whammy.

Regardless of any claims for or against violent video games, the Army shouldn't be recruiting like that.

Wasn't it a guy responding to a vehicle accident and he credited America's Army for teaching him about triaging patients? I think it stuck in my mind for the egregious click-baity headline.
