You are correct, except that you're wrong. Of what value is a system that rejects scientific BS, if 9 times out of 10 it also rejects true, important innovation?

I don't think this is anything new, though. Einstein was known to occasionally send a radical new paper to someone with a note from himself attached saying idiot, look here.

If you don't get your hilarious comment in by the first 75 or so, forget it. No mod points for you. First 20-30 better yet.

Notably Hollywood people, lest one appear on a talk show and casually drop the terrible service they received on airline X, costing the company millions.

There was a pregnant woman in Detroit who, while boarding a plane, was shoved violently aside by such an airline goon, striving to get to the Hollywood person aboard already to serve them. As it turns out, the pregnant woman happened to be a columnist for the Detroit Free Press.

It didn't go so well for the airline.

Take the quotes off "wrong". Too many people view democracy as a holy justifier of dictatorship, as if, because it was voted in, it is therefore ok.

Democracy is a tool of freedom. Freedom is the master, not the servant of it, and is not something to be waved away because some charismatic demagogue can briefly convince 51% of the population to grant him infinite power.

Politicians tout democracy rather than freedom because freedom means freedom...from them, while democracy means massive powers authorized to them.

I'm not saying the US playing the game of "oh well, if it's gonna be a dictator, might as well be one friendly to us" is something noble, but I am so sick of this drooling, unthinking slavishness to the Holy Shrine of Democracy, when it yields little to no freedom.

To find out, the European Space Agency held its first ever mock asteroid drill to work on solutions and identify problems in how to handle such a catastrophe.

Symposium leader: Ok, anyone have any ideas other than "die" and "call NASA to see if they can launch a few hundred nukes at it?"

The cards may also be used to fast track money from Comcast's other customers straight into the pockets of the politician.

The simple version is that it's a diet without grains and pasta and chips and Doritos and French fries with everything. AKA you aren't gorging on starches. Root veggies are allowed (maybe fries? Think more cut tater chunks).

Look at your common diet and see how much bread (buns, sub, sandwich) pizza, pasta, donuts, muffins, potato chips, Funyons, much calories, taste good. die yung.

Should one of these guys succeed, half the denigrating posters in this thread will immediately demand the government seize the technology and roll it out to the masses.

Your drooling makes no sense. A proper response would include no fewer than 37 "First of all..."s.

But first, one must pass it through a debabbelifier to see what you are saying.

> "We evacuated ourselves to the waffle house"

(Waffles arrive) "Ugh...they poured the blueberry 'syrup' all over them. Now I wish I had been killed by the tornado."

Given the energy travels through the earth faster than sound, I wonder what the hell kinds of sounds are generated by what earth micro-stresses arriving ahead of the main shockwaves.

No, the fat guy was just coincidence, he had heard the lunch truck pull up.

We now return to Family Guy in Space:

(Printer spits out something...)

Peter: "Wait. That doesn't look like a tool,"

Quagmire: "It's frequently been called a tool."'

And Germany has been completely neutered as far as military responses go.

Well, you take the good with the bad.

"Oh oh, our cigars suck. Ummmmm...hide!"
