What's an example of a good answer to the "biggest weakness" interview question?
Srsly.
That question is the dumbest fucking thing on earth. I'd be surprised if you ran into it, honestly, because the past few interviews I've been on it hasn't been asked at all.
Though when it was asked, I usually just said, "The fact that I don't like answering meaningless questions." Which is partially true.
Actually they can't do that. It's your duty as a citizen to serve on a jury but it's your right as a juror to conduct jury nullification.
It's counter-productive to the whole democratic legislative process thing, but taking any action to prevent it would be counter-productive to the whole fair trial thing, which is of a more immediate relevance in this case.

This is true. I remember reading somewhere that if James Cameron had gotten to shoot the entire screenplay like he wanted the movie would have been something like 4 hours long.
Unfortunately the world couldn't handle that much awesome.
I just took the gf out for some delicious burritos and guac and it cost $18.
Amazing.
That sounds horribly expensive to me.
Excellent food for $9 a person?
When was the last time you ate out?
Sundays I usually go to this bar called Hand-in-Hand and get a slew of tacos for $1 a piece and pitchers of PBR for $3 a piece. Four tacos fills me up, two beers puts me right, so $6.
I kind of want to make a thread about lightspeed travel. It seems functionally impossible, because it would require infinite energy to accelerate something of infinite mass, right?
Physics geeks, you are called!
That is correct. The speed of light is a barrier that cannot be reached.
Isn't this why most sci-fi shows end up using a different "form" of travel when going faster then the speed of light.
9 dollars per person is pretty good if you're eating out
Oh I got screamed at during my jerb for the first time ever. This guy with alzheimers shouted at me because the quiche was too small. He "demanded to see the guy that dared call that a quiche"
Then he yelled at me again later for trying to explain the bill. And every time I brought something out for him he congratulated me like I was a retarded child doing something right. Annnnnd left under 10% tip.
I'm surprised I haven't encountered more terrible people while working. Most are, at worst, snooty or poor tippers.
Best waiter trick I know is when someone leaves a really bad tip, go give it back to them and say "sir, you forgot your change." They'll invariably say "oh, no, that's the tip" or "keep it"
Then you reply with: "I'm ok," or if you really dislike the person: " I think you need it more than I do"

But yeah, you're right. I'd totally never answer like that unless I was interviewing with Donald Trump, and I'm pretty sure he's smart enough to not ask such a pointless fucking question.

Damn you Podly and your cheap ethnic food.
Honestly NYC is probably the cheapest city in America to eat if you know where to go.
You are smoking crack, Zimmydoom.
$18 for burritos and guacomole is fucking ridiculous. You pay $6 for a burrito and it's so big that it doesn't fit on a goddamn plate. $9 is an outrageous price to have to pay for Mexican food.
And man, every time I tried Mexican food on the East Coast, it fucking sucked goat balls.

There are noodle places in NYC that are only open in the early morning for Asian immigrant dock workers. You can get a giant meal for like $3, but you have to know where and when to go.

This is all true. I make a breakfast burrito of similar proportions for about $1.50 in ingredients.

This is true, but overlooks the fact that judges have the power to overrule juries on questions of law, as well as the power to declare a mistrial if they believe an argument against the law rather than for the defendant's innocence has been provided.

You know, this is funny. I love the uncut version of Aliens, but while some of the cut scenes in T2 were awesome (like the one in the garage when they unlock the learning controls on his cpu), there were some really awkward scenes that I'm glad were cut.
Generally I like the extended editions of movies more, particularly if it's like LotR where the cut scenes help hold the story closer to the book and are awesome anyway, but T2 is one of the few where I prefer the theatrical version.

Isn't this why most sci-fi shows end up using a different "form" of travel when going faster then the speed of light.
I guess, then, that the question to ask is if there's any form of hyper-fast travel that's currently feasible?

Mexican food is expensive in the northeast. Do you live here? Do you have counterexamples to dispute my claim?

Yeah, you don't really want to brag about Mexican food over on this side of the country. It's all in the Puerto Rican and Cuban food. And also the Brazillian meat buffets that are smattered across Roswell, GA for some damned reason.

NO BUT SERIOUSLY WHAT DO YOU ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION

It may be the finest scifi-action film ever produced. Or, it may be the second-finest right behind The Fifth Element. I honestly can't decide.
For Mexican food up north $9 a person is fantastic. Just a small bowl of guac is $10 at most places.
