The golden rule: If you are attracted to an attractive woman's body, you are a pervert and a pig.

Uh, no. If you are attracted to an attractive woman's body, and then you make an ass of yourself over it, whistling at her, making crude remarks to your friends, or making unwanted physical advances, then you are a pervert and a pig.

It's really not complicated.

I can count, thanks. I don't have a tablet. I don't have a laptop. And I'm quite sure my PC and camera don't have one. One phone, one car.

It's fairly easy to prove that we are poisoning everything.

Except this doesn't matter. There are people who think that since Jesus is coming back any day now anyway, working to save the environment is pointless.

Valuable space? Hard drive storage is down to the 5 cents/GB range.

They're replacing their volatile and dysfunctional currency with.... another volatile and dysfunctional currency.

Pepsi should also advertise "Contains No Radioactive Nuclear Waste".

Nah, they'll never beat Nuka-Cola with that attitude.

we brought down Richard Nixon

No you didn't. Richard Nixon brought down Richard Nixon.

No, thanks. We in the east will keep our water. People in the west can stop trying to build cities and farms in the desert.

You have to understand the data-structure, how files, directories and commits are all content-addressable objects. The linkage of the commits by means of their id's must be understood.

See, here's the thing. Why should I have to understand internal data structures in order to use a piece of software? Imagine if you made a word processor and people found it difficult to understand, and you said, "It's easy once you understand that the words in the text are stored in a hash map along with a structure with various flags that encode things like whether it's italic or not." People would look at you funny and go back to using Word.

It isn't complicated.

Yes it is. Ten years is about how long it takes to figure out.

Anybody can act Anakin Skywalker (and look who did) because it's Anakin's story that is compelling.

Except this is patently wrong because look how it turned out.

So it's no surprise that poor talent could be used (Portman, Christensen)

Bzzt again. Portman, at least, is a decent actress.

This is not about saying "we don't serve your kind here".

Yes, it is.

This is about establishing guidelines for government to avoid reflexively punishing religious individuals over their scruples of conscience.

No, it isn't. There was an amendment offered by the Democrats that specifically added non-discrimination language to the bill. It was shot down.

The Christian would be a jerk in that case. So why are so many gays being jerks about the exact same kind of thing?

Congratulations, you're an idiot. There's a difference between refusing to serve someone because they're asking for a product you don't sell and refusing to serve them because they're Christian, or Muslim, or black, or gay.

Yeah I can totally see how one school's dumb decision is equal to a law enacted by the government of a state that affects millions of people.

On the other side, it seems like you have the government forcing people not just to tolerate - but to actively celebrate something that is deeply abhorrent to them.

No, you don't, which is why that side of the argument loses. Nobody is saying you have to celebrate same-sex marriage, just that the sexual preferences of the people involved in a business transactions shouldn't matter. How in the hell are you supposed to determine that anyway? If you own a cake shop do you make all your customers sign an affidavit that they're straight? Force them to reveal the gender of their spouse?

Would you be OK with the business owner posting "No Gays Allowed" signs on the door?
