    WrestlingSmarks Ethics, Morals, and Philosophy Debate Club

    I think that's what's missing from a lot of discussion today. I'm firmly of the belief that the majority of people want some sort of compromise. The issue is that the extremists on one side or the other are so hard line and will not compromise, and are so vocal about it that it kills discussion.

    WrestlingSmarks Ethics, Morals, and Philosophy Debate Club

    Question for the gallery.

    Uncanny Valley/Liminal Spaces/Urban Legends/Creepypastas

    Did anyone here read any of the Alvin Schwartz series "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark"? I used to read them a lot in middle school and I think they're what really got me interested in urban legends, scary stories, and creepy pastas in general.
