> progressive hypocrisy
Rather, hypocrisy pretending to be progressiveness.
But of course, slashdot was always full of sore AC who are just there to catch "liberals" be stupid, as if that would help improve their own station. Here's how you can help with global warming, go play in traffic.
What I really resent OKCupid for is that popup for Firefox users. Thanks, useless random website the internet could do without, for helping fuck up something actually necessary. Yeah it was not their call that Eich resigned, he did that - but they still what they did, riding the dick of this issue for brownie points, either not caring or not having the faintest clue how precious the few remaining players for a free internet are. Anyone reading this who cheered for this, you're a poopy head.
If only "referral traffic from OKCupid" was a thing! Then I'd patronize anyone coming from there, and set a cookie that they're stupid and should be made fun of henceforth. That would show them.
Muad'Dib is wise in the ways of the desert. Muad'Dib creates his own water. Muad'Dib hides from the sun and travels in the cool night. Muad'Dib is fruitful and multiplies over the land. Muad'Dib we call 'instructor-of-boys.' That is a powerful base on which to build your life, Paul Muad'Dib, who is Usul among us.
Well, if you have a, say, rectangular lawn, and you start making a circle -- imagine the Japanese flag with the inner circle being bigger and touching the edges -- what then? How can you cut the four remaining separate (and very awkwardly shaped) corner bits while still coming out ahead?
Or maybe not a literal circle was meant, but more like going from the outside to the inside, in a spiraling fashion, with 90Â degree turns instead of the regular ones?
The 44% are the better (near) half of Twitter, keeping hope alive ^^
No, it means both.
I started imagining this Route 66 of the future where technology jumps out of the computer screen and becomes part of us.
You took too much, man...
"Show me a man or a woman alone and I'll show you a saint. Give me two and they'll fall in love. Give me three and they'll invent the charming thing we call 'society'. Give me four and they'll build a pyramid. Give me five and they'll make one an outcast. Give me six and they'll reinvent prejudice. Give me seven and in seven years they'll reinvent warfare. Man may have been made in the image of God, but human society was made in the image of His opposite number, and is always trying to get back home."
Now here I go,
Hope I don't break down,
I won't take anything, I don't need anything,
Don't want to exist, I can't persist,
Please stop before I do it again,
Just talk about nothing, let's talk about nothing,
Let's talk about no one, please talk about no one, someone, anyoneYou and me have a disease,
You affect me, you infect me,
I'm afflicted, you're addicted,
You and me, you and me
*sings*
Heh.

15 months after the massacre in Du'jail for which Saddam was eventually hanged in 2006, Reagan's Special Envoy to the Middle East, Donald Rumsfeld is in Iraq is shaking Saddam Hussein's hand and pledging our support in his war against Iran.
Date: Dec 20, 1983.
If killing people and attacking countries is enough for you to call for invasion and hanging, I assume you would be fine with the US being invaded and roughly a gazillion people being finally tried for their crimes?
And why stop with Saddam? There are so many way more brutal dictators around the world, so what gives? Are you unaware that the US govt actively supported worse than him, or are you just chosing to ignore it? Don't even pretend: his crime wasn't that he "invaded his neighboring country", but that he did so on his own accord, disobeying the US. That's what made him an enemy, not the gassing or being a dictator. And then there is the fact that the US was always keen on controlling the oil in that region... so either you play along or you get replaced, that is all; how brutal you are doesn't play into it other than that you get lauded for it while you follow orders, and demonized otherwise. Saddam was an asshole, but that doesn't make the US govt less of a war profiteering, hypocritical BS expedition, or you less of an useful idiot, who essentially gets to pay big money to have blood on your hands. Sorry, I know nobody wants to hear something like that, but step one to fix things is to stop pretending you're not being played like a piano.
Thou shalt chill, not shill.
I know I didn't say I was comin down,
I know you didn't know I was here in town,
But bay-yay-yaby you can tell me if anyone can,
Baby, can you dig your man?
He's a righteous man,
Tell me baby, can you dig your man?
For Eich, there were plenty of great reasons for him to be CEO of Mozilla, clue wise. But what does Rice have to do with anything here? Does she have some 'putar expertise she did not let on during her time of accompliceship with war profiteering?
Not to pick on just her, I wonder generally: What's with these random politicians on the boards of random corporations? Do they just get paid for having connections? Are they actually doing anything?
Awww, sorry to hear that. It's hard to love someone who doesn't believe they are worthy to be loved by you. So don't do that next time, it's not your call who loves you and why
I'd say whenever a person digs you, you're "in their league", at least the way I meant it. It was a shitty phrase to use, I didn't mean to imply a linear ranking of better or worse. At least for me, how attractive I consider a person is not *purely* a function of their health, youth, symmetry of features or whatever.
sex with a cute person who is actually into you > sex with a disinterested "exceptionally attractive" one
You can buy and steal a lot of things, but not the most fun bit of sex.. and you don't need to either, women are just as horny as men. It's just that you can't buy genuine sex outside of your actual league
