One punch man creates dramatic tension by leveraging that characters psychological vulnerabilities. At least in the first season, I have only seen the...

I like one punch man and I thought Hancock was a good re-imagining of the invulnerable character too.
January 16, 2017 at 20:45
What does one punch man do that was said couldn't be done?
January 16, 2017 at 20:44
I don't know which one is more weird. To fly around with farts or dynamite explosions lol.
January 16, 2017 at 18:28
It found a page that say's his first appearance was in weird comics issue #6.
January 16, 2017 at 18:26
He is a marvel character?
January 16, 2017 at 18:17
lol never heard of him before
January 16, 2017 at 18:15
That guy in your avatar pic is farting.
January 16, 2017 at 18:05
I see you are getting upset and resorting to insults. Perhaps it is best if just agree to disagree.
January 15, 2017 at 17:04
You said that not eating steak was moral. You have used steak to make a moral claim. Before you refused to admit that you had used steak for anything....
January 15, 2017 at 17:00
So now you are admitting that you have used steak?
January 15, 2017 at 16:57
If you claim not eating steak is moral then you have used steak to make a moral claim. If steak does not exist then you have made no claim at all. Cas...

No the definition is to exercise restraint from doing or enjoying something. Abstinence is a self discipline in the face of an opportunity to do other...
January 15, 2017 at 16:43
The definition of abstaining. If something does not exist there is no opportunity to restrain yourself from doing it. You are using the steak as means...
January 15, 2017 at 16:35
That is not what I said. I said if steak does not exist you cannot abstain from eating it. There is no opportunity to abstain from a thing which does ...
January 15, 2017 at 16:27
If steak does not exist you cannot abstain from eating it. If you are claiming that not eating is moral then you are doing something to the steak. You...
January 15, 2017 at 16:20
Except your abstinence is not possible without the steak. If you claim that not eating steak is moral, then you are doing something with the steak, yo...
January 15, 2017 at 16:16
If you don't eat steak just because you believe it is moral to abstain from eating steak then you are using steak as a means to an end of being moral....
January 15, 2017 at 16:06
Yes steak is a means to and end of abstaining if you don't eat it. If you are treating people a certain way just to be moral you are using them as a m...
January 15, 2017 at 15:55
So if you don't have sex with them, you are still using them as a means to the end of being moral? It is a damned if you do damned if you don't.
January 15, 2017 at 15:51
On an infinite timeline with infinite jars it is inevitable.
January 15, 2017 at 05:23
That kind of makes sense, considering it is a philosophy forum.
January 15, 2017 at 04:34
What do you mean by treating others as objects?
January 15, 2017 at 02:19
I think I heard about this in the news. At some point I believe those girls will start peeing on each other and/or him.

January 14, 2017 at 23:55
I was just using that as an example. I don't imagine a lot of people boycotting products because of the way those products are being marketed. And I d...
January 14, 2017 at 23:44
I am kind of at a loss as well. I am not sure how to reason about it either myself. I mean at some level I guess I realize that modern hygiene is more...
January 14, 2017 at 23:13
I think I definitely agree with you that the advertising industry does attempt to exploit people psychologically. I never thought about it as an impor...
January 14, 2017 at 22:15
lol you still avoiding the question? why?
January 14, 2017 at 21:55
I have not actually seen you make this claim. I only have seen some one else make this claim about you. Are you saying that you have or do teach philo...
January 14, 2017 at 21:41
But you don't actually teach philosophy professionally do you, and never have. Right.
January 14, 2017 at 21:21
Having trouble thinking of a good name for your penis? Try the penis name generator. I named my penis Funky Flesh Lord.
January 14, 2017 at 20:09
lol that was auto correct. I meant to type uncomputable
January 14, 2017 at 20:06
Ha! Nice one
January 14, 2017 at 19:35
I still doubt that you have ever taught philosophy professionally.
January 14, 2017 at 19:16
I think uncomputable numbers can still be said to exist in the sense that there is a formal abstraction that defines them. I see your point though and...
January 14, 2017 at 19:13
Good. Because that is just silly.
January 14, 2017 at 01:26
Why not, if sex is necessarily immoral?
January 14, 2017 at 01:23
Yes what? Animals that reproduce through sex are immoral?
January 14, 2017 at 01:21
So how could sex be necessarily immoral? For example if animals have sex are they being immoral?
January 14, 2017 at 01:17
What makes something immoral?
January 14, 2017 at 01:07
Why not?
January 14, 2017 at 01:05
Sex is not necessarily immoral.
January 14, 2017 at 01:03
Yes that is the point. Sex is not necessarily immoral.
January 14, 2017 at 01:01
But sex is not immoral.
January 14, 2017 at 00:58
So it really has nothing to do with sex, virtue. It has to do with resisting opportunity.
January 14, 2017 at 00:54
What about some one that does not have sex because they do not have opportunity, are they virtuous?
January 14, 2017 at 00:51
For some reason I doubt this is true.
