Hate to break it to you but they're criminals. Terrorists by definition terrorise people to further their political aims, drug dealers want to sell more drugs, which is a breach of the law, politics does not really come into it.

Just because someone "does drugs" doesn't mean they chainsmoke spiffs and shoot up every day and smoke crack on weekends. Most of my friends that partake in such things (usually MDMA, LSD, shrooms, that sort of thing) do them once every month, some less often.

There are plenty of non addictive drugs that one can do without alerting anyone in the privacy of one's own home that don't significantly impact your life. You can never know who does and who does not do drugs, though I would place high likelihood on your neighbours not being drug dependant, it's entirely possible to be "reasonable" and take drugs every now and then just like it's possible to drink or smoke and still be socially acceptable in your world view.

Not all drugs require paraphernalia, not all drugs are addictive and not all drug users are obvious about such things.

Clearly you have never played on xbox live, 10 minutes of a moronic 8 year out shouting "NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER" only ever interrupted by a cry demanding milk/cookies from their mother every now and then.

The majority of xbox live players are morons that only care about one upping their friends so they look cool, they just fail to realise that their actions merely have the complete opposite effect.

A phone company that seriously wants to *not* utterly rape you that actually has the means to provide a service that works!?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Despite being incredibly skeptical of such substitutes for a first life this does seem like a ridiculously good idea for filling such a gap in education given what a leap it must be between classroom knowledge and actually dealing with real world patients.

I must admit that I'm just utterly amazed that someone's actually thought of a way to use second life that isn't utterly futile and useless.

I started to realise that I actively hated having to group with other people to the point that I'd obnoxiously subject prospective party members to simple logic tests to find out whether they were functionally mentally disabled or not. I'd just avoid any sort of quest that would require me to interact with other people, at the time realms were closed off so the actual real live friends of mine were invariably on other realms or completely inappropriate levels to quest with me. Where does it get sane to pay a monthly fee for the ability to avoid playing with others online? If I wanted that I'd actually bother to pay for an xbox live gold subscription, at least with that I can still play the damn games instead of having their content entirely withdrawn from me despite having paid for it.

I'm both shocked and appalled that the article made no mention of Web 2.0 as the absolute *worst* abuse of version numbers.

Oh well.

I've bought most of my toys as an adult, admittedly though they're mostly rubber leather and silicone.... >_>

I've done ~170 and it had a *massive* impact on my mental health and it took me about 8 months to feel vaguely sane again. Not recommended.

The Blade system worked fine, having played with the new one for a little while I have to say it appear to blow goats, it's not particularly intuitive and it doesn't make brilliant use of screen real estate. The mii creation rip is reasonably well implemented though, I managed to make someone who looks remarkably like myself, which I've never managed on a wii.
