The one I can pay taxes with, exchange for RMB in china, and expect to retain its price over the span of 6 months.

Im pretty sure he did not, in fact, say that. I might suggest you re-read his post.

So is thinking youre entitled to a single thing on this earth. Sadly, we have a far bigger problem with the latter than the former.

Ah yes, the old "Mirriam-Webster-Illuminati conspiracy" defense, almost as effective as the chewbacca defense.

Im fairly certain that adding strawberry scent to soap does not remove its properties as a soap.

Probably not a good idea to take that too far though.

I mean, you can feed your kid raw chicken to expose him to a "variety of microbes" if you want, but I think Im gonna opt out of that.

In which countries do people live longer?

A) Third world countries with human waste management issues, lack of clean water, etc,....
or
B) First world countries where there is proper sanitation?

You can exclude non-disease-related deaths if you want, even.

XML should be banned too, I hear its just as dangerous as SOAP.

Why not just feed soap to the cows, since it kills bacteria?

I dont think its a fallacy to point out that NOONE has managed to make faster processors than x86-64 arch ones in years despite claims that there are superior processor arches. Appeal to authority is not necessarily a fallacy if all of the biggest authorities in the field agree.

Just a recommendation, if youre serious in wanting to stir up opposition to this type of stuff, speak honestly about it and cut the hyperbole: It makes you look like a kook.

Whatever credibility you had was utterly lost here.

US is number 3, Libya is number 64.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_of_Economic_Freedom
US is number 10, Libya is something like #175.

US is number 2, Libya isnt on the list.

And i think the idea that Americans are afraid to speak out against the government is absurd. Have you not watched the news? Are you unaware that there are two major political parties, and they argue over everything? That there are sizeable factions called libertarians and Tea Party who have no problem speaking out against the things you mention?

This idea of Americans having some patriotic fervor that prevents us from stopping a police state is one of the stupidest stereotypes ever, because if theres one thing Americans are NOT afraid of, its boldly telling everyone exactly what they think (even when theyre dead wrong).

Youre welcome to make your own architecture. We await eagerly the amazing innovations you will surely be bringing to the table.

The estimate for the size of common dictionaries is ~30,000 words. 30,000 ^ 3 is 1/10th as many combinations as an 8 character alpha-numeric completely random word. Do one of those substitutions you sneered at in just ONE of your words, and that number absolutely skyrockets.

Guess which password is easier to remember when Im required to change it periodically? Guess which is more secure, in reality?

The joke
