Hey OP, just a headsup, being focused on sex reveals far more about your lines of thinking and personality than anyone else's.

If someone else seems focused on sex in conversation and you're not all hung up on sex yourself, then it shouldn't even be a blip on your radar. You should just get bored with them and move on. But if it makes your shoulders all tight and fills your head with run around arguments with yourself about it, then you're the one who's hung up on sex, and they're just playing you, and appropriately I might add.

That's how it works, it's the game of the low brows.

If I had that dream franky, the planet would have no atmosphere and I'd have no spacesuit, my ship would be crashlanding, big spider aliens coming to get me, and I'd just want to go home to that simple yard with the planets off where planets should be.

dark energy/matter is just a mathematical equation to justify the expansion of the universe... may not even exist...


Kudos. Results of calculus but same sentiment. Values don't match observation, occam's razor is call the discrepency dark matter/energy until you figure it out, one is the absence of matter which, according to accurate prediction ought be observed; the other is a notation that we don't completely understand energy yet.

Carlin and a number of other really conscientious, smart, funny stand up comedians and entertainers in general, I have a tremendous admiration for. The real ones who know what they're talking about. Love 'em.

everybody knows if you distract a woman with meaningless conversation and lead her over to a kitchen bench she'll start making you a sandwich so I really don't see what the issue is o_o

they found the blueprint for this dastardly crime among some building blocks and a bowl of puree'd apple and the kid had a guilty look on his face.

In Australia we have a ubiquitous federal law called "Duty of Care" which means everybody has a duty of care towards others and the community; if you witness a person in forseeable risk you must act, as Breach in Duty of Care in a criminal offence.

Rendering aid to an injured person or accident victim is duty of care, people who drive past an accident without rendering aid are in breach and committing an indictable criminal offence, which can have very severe penalties.

Bar and security staff are bound by Duty of Care to render aid to someone drunk enough to be in forseeable risk to themselves, which means by law you have to call them a cab, or help them down the stairs.
In our course training they told a case example where a security worker was prosecuted for manslaughter under breach in duty of care, because a person he evicted for drunkeness fell down the stairs and later died, the family just didn't want to let it go, the bouncer was prosecuted on the basis the man was in forseeable risk and he should've called him a cab and helped him down the iron staircase to ground level. Instead he basically tossed the guy out for rowdy drunkeness and he fell down the stairs and died. Duty of Care is the law that lets the courts do that, and prosecute you fairly I might add, for being an idiot and having a fit of apathy basically.

But it means bar staff have the same responsibility under law. Always better to cut off a table's drinks or ask an individual to leave long before they complete getting blind drunk. It's just that you kind of have to do that or you're in big risk of being slapped with a serious indictable offence.

It was also explained at bar course, if someone you've been feeding drinks all night gets pulled over out the front and blows many times the legal limit (0.05% BAC), the bartender who served them gets a $12,000 fine and the venue gets a $60,000 fine, mandatory. It is illegal to serve 'intoxicated persons' although you have to use your own judgement about identifying one. That's in addition to Duty of Care.

Although C is a distinct possibility:wink:


I'm actually okay with that, but then I fell for every one of Dexter's girlfriends.

It's political satire, about policy not education system.

The punchline is when put on the spot, half the people who lobby vehemently and very publicly against muslims in general, and loudly support the war in the middle east appear to think their soldiers are fighting jews in england.
The object is to reveal those shouting loudest with the most self justification shouldn't be in charge of an appliance, let alone international and domestic policies.
That's what political satire is about.

There's a comedy skit show in Oz called Chasers War on Everything, they basically run around chasing politicians in the street and doing satire at them about policies, things like dressing up as osama bin laden (before he was killed) and trying to walk into a parliamentary session acting all surprised that security try to stop him, silly things like that. (they've been arrested several times, but so funny they're still on air)

Anyhoo they went to various cities in the US, new york, DC, etc. and asked random americans in the street if they could find places like the middle east on a world atlas.

Overwhelmingly, no. Most people pointed at england and said, that's Iraq.

So they started asking people if they could find the United States on a world Atlas. About 1 in 5 there.

Asked them to name three countries starting with U. Found they had to repeatedly point out that USA starts with a U so could be included as one of the three.

Next asked which religion do muslims practise, as a multiple choice to make it easier. Christianity, Islam or Judaism.
At least half those asked said either Judaism or Christianity, half all the rest had no idea and wouldn't answer, the ones who said Judaism were absolutely certain of it. Everyone who said Islam weren't very sure about it.

Finally the year of the 9/11 attacks was asked. Very few got that right. So they asked what date, as in day and month the 9/11 attacks happened, phrased like that too: the 9/11 attacks to really make this one easy. Again very few, like 1 in 6 could remember exactly which date even when being told the exact date in the question.

The majority were english speaking, native white americans who clearly completed secondary school.

O_o


it is comedy satire, not a serious thing btw. Obviously when put on the spot in front of a camera most people tend to freeze up with mental blocks, it's perfectly normal.
But hell it was funny.

A mate had his girlfriend over when we were unpacking a setting up a new tv once, she asked what it was. I suggested it was a fridge.
We thought it was funny, but she never spoke to me again -_-



There's actually a social phenomenon whereby individuals are specifically opposed to thinking before they speak, known as anti-intelligentsia. It's a real disorder, some people are paranoid that "smart people are trying to control us", so go out of their way to avoid any semblence of being smart or any tolerance of people who seem smart.
I guess the demonstrable physiology that all healthy human beings hold an identical intellectual potential is one of the conspiracies of these smart people.

I do like wearing them, though not to work. For work I wear a comfortable dress shoe.

I tend to like tall men and a little heel makes reaching for a kiss a bit easier. So on special nights out, heels are a must. If you get the right one, they will not hurt your feet though.

They're good to wear on special nights in too:wink:


insta-win a shoe fight. I like the way you think.

Honestly I'm astonished by this complete and utter lack of any genuine objectivity by the court.

Unless distressed by his own actions to a medical certainty (subsequent extreme psychological disorder as a result, with physical evidence to support the assertion), such an offender is not mentally ill.
They're just vile malcontents with violent disregard for other human beings, and quite wilfully.

You must show patient distress in order for it to be a mental illness, and I mean to a medical certainty. Otherwise it's not a mental illness at all, it's just a disgusting, violent and dangerous behaviour.

I enjoyed the 1st season for its strong cast.

Philosophically I have the same problem with it that I do another show I very much enjoyed for its sheer entertainment value, the Dexter series.
Terrific entertainment fiction, but has the bad product of reinforcing very unhealthy popular perceptions of clinical disorders.
The "psychopath" and the "cult follower" are social constructs readily used for the personal agendas of poorly qualified political salesmen.

Hypnotists and genetic criminal aberrations simply don't exist, they're the exact equivalent of claiming an alien invasion is among us "good humans". Infantile and counterproductive to any social welfare system. No ethical media producer would promote it, good art is to educate and entertain, not lie and misdirect public opinion through entertainment. That's how stupid laws are backed by public representation and good ones dismissed.
