What the... are you some crazed lunatic trying to attack religion? You religion hating bigot!! Why can't you let the religious be?

*smacks self across face*

Oh. Sorry, I almost fell into the trap that's being played out here in the US when someone mentions removing "God" from the dollar/pledge.

Another way to prevent athlete's foot is to remove the feet. Head lice is simple too: remove the h...air.

We want them to be afraid of computers in case they (the computers, not the kids) decide to take over.

In one of my extended studies classes (8th grade if I remember correctly) the teacher came to school wearing one blue and one black shoe. Both shoes were the same style... just different shades of color. She excused it as "getting ready in the dark."

You reminded me of that day and I thought it was pertinent in some dark twisted way.

What if you are actually writing software for a pimp or dog breeding?

Who's to say it isn't or wasn't? For all we know, outside the observable universe is just more universe infinitely scaling up to a large organism that is fighting another large organism made up of like universes fighting each other with giant disintegration rays that make their target expand until they break apart. Maybe we are a particle in a creature who has been hit by such device..

The keyboard just hasn't been updated to support "predict" or "comfort" yet. It's coming in the next update.

Distinctly American? After-School, College, local diner...

I feel like I'm missing something because I've never heard of fluffernutter before and I've been here in the US (I always assume when someone says American, they mean US...) all my life. I did take a week and Canada where I was introduced to poutine, but that's technically still America.

You can try (and by all means, I support any efforts) but there's a membrane (glass ceiling?) that has to be broken through for people to even seriously consider someone running via Youtube, etc. You'll never be invited to any debates, people will not do research on their own to find out what you support and they will continue to vote for the person with "experience". You pretty much have to start from the city/local government at a young age and work your way up to be considered for spots that are intended to be filled by common citizens, but you're not going to be a common citizen if you work up the ladder and you have to dedicate your life to it unless you have a ton of money to spend on ramping up that campaign.

You can run, but you won't win... People keep crying out that they want to curb career politicians, but when you have Joe Nobody on the ballot vs. someone you've seen on the TV, people will vote for the one they saw on TV.
