Psych issues cause problems with porn
Huh? But crazy chicks are hot!
Err, when you retain the ability to switch them off.

Maybe he was beating off shitless? No Jappy niche porn or 2g1c then...
Damn, I haven't posted all week and I break lurkrank for this kind of post.. the interwebs has corrupted me.
Don't do that. You'll only make them stronger...
Do you always stop reading halfway through a post?
Take your Ritalin, dude
You're right, of course. While we're on this line of reasoning, let's also stop using the following:
Probably give you cancer...
delivery rooms
Often disregard centuries of midwifery and basic ideas such as beneficial use of birthing baths and gravity...
c-sections
Have been shown to be over-prescribed and the associated dangers minimised so that many mothers do not give informed consent...
disinfectants
Irresponsible overuse of which has helped give us superbugs, whereas just training people to wash their hands with soap and water more often would have worked just as well. Oh, and probably cause cancer...
medicine
Millions of kids on expensive anti-psychotics for run-of-the-mill running-around-like-a-kid activity, not to mention the trillions of dollars spent on the unregulated, so-called 'herbal' side of big pharma, making expensive pee for hundreds of millions of people every day... Not what I'd call progress, oh, and of course probably cause cancer
thermometers
Doesn't take a genius with equipment to work out if someone's hot or not. We have heat receptors in our skin... Oh, and if you break them, they can cause cancer...
disinfectants
See?? Overuse!
Automobiles
Should be eliminated. Personal, autonomous (in other words, easily crashable) transport vehicles are illogical in a day and age when we could have a top-notch public transportation system in every city; or it could still use private vehicles but utilize something like compressed air engines (needs electricity but this at least consolidates the fuel issue at the power plant, instead of having a billion separate pollution points you can have just a few thousand, and convert those to non-polluting sources); and between every city maglev can do the job... But I digress..
Diapers
Disposable nappies are a huge problem in landfill - we would be hugely better off if people stuck with reusable ones. Also less chance of things like allergic reactions (or cancer!!) from the plastics involved, and much cheaper too.
Books
The paper comes from trees and needs to be bleached, the bleach runoff gets into the waterways, and gives you cancer.
Any footwear or clothing technology invented in the last 200 years
What, are you kidding? Ruffles are BACK dude!
With a little trust and good parenting, ALL of these items are unncessary
Or until you get cancer.
Dismemberment is just too messy.
You forgot to add the bit at the end, "I am available for children's parties, by the way!"
And then your kids will get very, very lonely.
A blogger is born!
Exactly. As a parallel, every time I hear someone say "Derpy-derp derrr.. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger...", it gives me an overwhelming urge to snap their spine. By their logic, I'm turning them into fricken superman!
Oh, and I think I'd invest the several hundred dollars in some judo lessons instead. When my kid's 6 he/she will be able to kill you with a toenail.

The speed of light, as we've all heard, is a constant: 186,171 miles per second in a vacuum. But it is different in the real world, outside a vacuum; for instance, light not only bends but also slows ever so slightly when it passes through glass or water. Still, that's nothing compared with what happens when [Lene Vestergaard] Hau shines a laser beam of light into a Bose-Einstein condensate: it's like hurling a baseball into a pillow. "First, we got the speed down to that of a bicycle," Hau says. "Now it's at a crawl, and we can actually stop itâ"keep light bottled up entirely inside the BEC, look at it, play with it and then release it when we're ready."
O.O
Since my boggled eyes probably won't constitute a worthy post, I guess I should add this.
Pluto isn't in the solar system anymore.
I wouldn't hang around if people were disrespecting me either.
I guess you're trying to call them thieving BAEStards?
Seriously though, some purists would argue that since software is in fact just a form of maths in a usable form, it cannot be truly 'created', only discovered.
I could maybe understand this law making sense in the cold war era, and/or as it relates to hardware crypto, but it seems pretty irrelevant and ignorant for them to try and restrict the exchange of digital informa-- I'm sorry, for a second there I was thinking that politicians and legislators actually had a grasp on reality, please excuse my momentary lapse.
Oh wow... Either
I apologise.
Also, I should also mention the fact that legislation against encryption is ridiculously counter-productive; if the feds are after someone for any good reason, and that person is a criminal, they aren't going to respect such a restriction if they're already violating more serious laws. If all they succeed in doing is reducing legitimate commercial trade in such products, they're hurting themselves but at the same time improving the market tremendously for illicit dealers (note this observation applies to drugs as well, hmm).
Oh, and FireFirst?
There's an app for that!
Memes don't actually die though, they just lie dormant, waiting for the chance to trigger again... Usually after the initial stage of widespread use it will degenerate rapidly into the "the-only-people-using-this-meme-now-either-don't-realise-it's-no-longer-cool-or-realise-but-are-mocking-it" stage, followed by the dormant state... then months or sometimes years later, it may resurface, in some cases memetically modified and even more annoying.
Life is a healthy respect for mother nature laced with greed.
