  • If we say that the accepted pronunciation of “X” is “ex” then we run into an even bigger problem than Prince’s logo.

    “Ex” User says… Is this a former user of the website or current?

    A user on the website “ex” is too long winded and sounds like I’m saying a hypothetical.

    Users on “ex” - although shorter, X is a street name for ecstacy and user is sometimes used as shorthand for drug user (e.g. User and abuser) so why should we be listening to a cracked out party kid?

    The golden ticket is “formerly Twitter” because we actually know what the fuck that one is.

    I’m willing to bet there’s at least one X user on X right now.












  • All things being equal, two of the movies in the men’s list are in the top 100 for men. It’s not so much that men like old movies but of the old movies that men rank in the hundreds, women don’t like those.

    Who knows what men and women’s “number one” movie is and what the Delta is there.

    If someone asked you to name your top 100 ~ 150 movies but not the top 100, you’d be confused and just throw some shit up there that you vaguely recall looking. Like, I’d probably be scraping the bottom of the barrel by the time I got to sixty, let alone one hundred. This chart by no means represents a longing for male dominated classic cinema - just that men recall liking things that are regarded as classic. This chart just says that men don’t like The Blindside and they’re right for that.
