That deals with the mountain dew thing. Snopes and The Straight Dope are awesome for debunking shit like this.

And Ken was talking about the picture breaking the page margins - it depends on your resolution setting I guess but it breaks mine too.

Using your fists to bloody up your women will sometimes achieve the desired result?
Wait, no no...

A lot of women are like prize fighters, no action until they get a good knocking up?

Wait...That was just fucked up. Ignore me, I was never good with morals.

The debate over genetics/nurture for me is largely pointless, it can still have implications if we figured out if we could tamper with the influences but the real question is this: is there a decision involved? The answer is no, the only decision avaliable is whether or not you act on your feelings....

Does your friend play footbag?

I might have a couch he could crash on for a few nights in Wellington, depends on what time he's here (depends if I'm here at the time y'see).

I am footbag.

Normally in an argument if people start reaching for the dictionary you know things have gone downhill - the dictionary isn't going to prove shit for either side since you can always find one to fit your view. Ever tried looking up complicated concepts in a dictionary? It almost always either muddle...

What a miscarriage of justice. Shit, looks like I just hit a new low. I think this is euthanasia-class stupidity. Suicide is legal, but having someone else kill you...Illegal? Having a doctor perform an abortion is legal, but your boyfriend helping you to do effectively the same thing is....Illegal?...

So if it's claimed that America is a lone superpower, or even has more power and resources in general than other nations, why cant America do whatever the hell it wants? Think about it. Seriously, not a flame. the point is, it can, and its a miracle that our nation engages in as much global aid and...

i dont understand why so many other countries seem to be obsessed with analyzing America and its leader. The US is the world's lone superpower that's why, and worse it can't seem to keep its hands to itself under this administration. That's why people seem to be obsessed - making the precedent of 2...

That story is bullshit
It's an interesting idea though...

Pretty widly accepted definition ≠ Correct definition

Ding, that's correct kester but I'm afraid you didn't give your answer in the form of a question

Even by our flawed common-day notion of what race is, America (or the USA to be specific) is not a race. The USA is a 'legal' collection of people - for lack of a better term - not a genetic one.

So no it's not racist.

Well i personally think that this man has some issues. What kind of a sick fuck cuts open a living dog? This is mans best friend were talking about. Even though the dog was going to be youthinized what the hell? Why do it, maybe if it was college but definatly no in a highschool. Frogs, Fish and wh...

I wrote about a 4k word essay on this last year, except my title was 'Environmentally, is nuclear power acceptable for NZ' or something like that. I could e-mail it to you or just post it here if you want it. The short answer is no, it's not the only way. Coal could be done, and it wouldn't be very ...

Jeremy is on the right track I think. If your answer to this problem is 'taking human life is wrong' then you need to identify what it is about human life which you value. Then you have created some criteria about what you value morally. Then you can apply this to a fetus and see if it also has this...

^^^Over a century ago some politican in the UK I think it was, came out and said that we shouldn't bother trying to invent new things because surely everything that could be invented has already been done. That's what I think of when people say 'nothing is original', they have no scope. In regards t...

Listen.. people be askin me all the time, 'Yo Mos, what's gettin ready to happen with Hip-Hop?' (Where do you think Hip-Hop is goin?) I tell em, 'You know what's gonna happen with Hip-Hop? Whatever's happening with us' If we smoked out, Hip-Hop is gonna be smoked out If we doin alright, Hip-Hop is g...

Good point, yes that's flying toe, and I guess one or the other are misnomers. See I think usually, unlike normal moves, when you say flying you neccessarily imply kicking even though it's sort of out of line with non-flying nomenclature. For instance I think if someone said flying outside it would ...
