I imagine many American businesses would give China their business on the basis that China shoots strikers. It's one way to keep strikes to a minimum.

So will they wake any sleeping passengers as well? Of course not. This argument makes no sense whatsoever based on the behaviour of the flight crew.

Too bad for you we're going to continue to read books. Not once has the crew asked me not to do that.

That's why I been saying we should call them black fellas. It clears up a whole lotta confusion

I'm happy to buy DRM'd products (as long as they're reasonable. Unreasonable DRM such as requiring I always be online is going too far). I'll also happily download un-DRM'd copies of the games should my bought copy ever stop working.

I feel this is ethical as I am supporting the company while ensuring I gain the entertainment I desire.

If games are priced reasonably (in Australia I can get Mass Effect 3 for $79 for the PC. That might seem unreasonable to Americans, but in Australia $100 and below has been the standard price for years) I'm happy to buy the original. If they're unreasonable ($120+) I'll look for used copies.

I've all but given up on consoles for 2 reasons. 1) I find it much easier to play modern games with a keyboard and mouse. This isn't the main reason though. I had initially given up on games completely before I discovered I could play them on PCs. The main reason is (2) I'm tired of the upgrade games Sony keeps playing. The PS2 was a worthy investment as it could play my PS1 games. The original PS3 was a worthy investment because it could play my PS1 and PS2 games. It's doubtful the PS4 will had backwards compatibility (based on the PS3 life-cycle) and so I'm getting off this roller-coaster while I'm still ahead.

Also making legally owned backups of games that are playable on a PS4 will be quite difficult and even possibly illegal.

Can you point to an FAA regulation mandating my book not be in my hands? Because without that this is something the airline enforces, and I've never seen an airline enforce it for a book (iPad, yes. Book, no).

You romantic son of a gun,

Don't forget Agent 88

I'm willing to have sex with women I'm not related to, even though they mit be someone's mother or sister. Just because someone happens to be a daughter doesn't mean younshouldntreat your daughter the way you treat them.

Same thing with a porno.

You may be wrong on that front actually

Also the Cold War was partly motivated by atheism (it was more motivated by economic principles, but religion was thrown in on the Russian's side at least).

Before you say "that's only one time!" How many powerful atheist dominated societies have there been? I don't think us atheists really have anything to be proud of.

So you're comparing the actions of reasonable people to the actions of those found on the internet? Talk about a double standard.

I'd say about 5% of the religious people I know throw it in my face, and about 2% of the atheists throw it in my face.

Well I can say a ENORMOUS percept of religious people post smug shit every time they see a shadow of an opportunity, and about an equal percent of atheists do as well.

See how the comparisons work out to be roughly equal when you compare valid samples?

Read the fucking article. This is about how 1 man challenged the law concerning religious headgear, using the Flying Spaghetti Monster argument as his tool to open up a debate on the issue. This has hit the mainstream media. People who read this will now question their current position on the argument. They may not change their position, but they will be at least consider it, if only for a second.

Oh anyone that knew me could definitely identify me if they saw your post. But random people on the internet can't even with all that.

Getting closer, but still not quite there.

Well done. You've narrowed it down to one of two locations and gotten my name. But my name still doesn't tell you who I am. I've worked in the same building as a John Lynch. The name is that common.
