One of the most infuriating things
  • I always viewed the difference as intent and not mutually exclusive. reason explains your thought process, actions, and events. Excuse are reasons presented in a manor meant to shift responsibility.

    FBI finds hundreds of weapons at home of suspect in Arizona Democratic Party office shooting
  • As a person who has unfortunately been forced to use a firearm to defend the life of myself and my family during a break in where the guy had handcuffs etc, I read this as you telling me we should just be dead. if "you’re rich enough to have your own security service " you don't need a weapon at all. The rest of us unfortunately may have to defend ourselves. I am aware this is only an anecdotal argument not a statistical one, but as the guy who did not have to watch unspeakable things happen to his family, I'm OK with that.

    Cards Against Humanity continue to bring good into the world
  • "America's bluest non voters" and "tweet Donald trump is.....". Looks like they are only paying if you agree with their politics. That is buying votes. Offering it to all non voters is one thing but the other requirements make it shady. Just as bad as Elon Musk "sign a petition". neither should be permitted.

    Why does it seem so many countries nowadays are against migrants/imagrants when these countries were either built or birthed from migrants?
  • when economy was based on number of farmers or number of factory workers (especially cheap ones) those in power loved them. But honestly even then they where treated as cheap labor not people. Ask Irish, Chinese, etc, etc.....

    Fictional alien time travellers can’t be black, insist morons
  • never said i was upset about "Egwene and Nynaeve". Not sure where you got that. I just remember the one power being more common in the village because "the blood of Manetheren flows strong Emond's Field" and everyone commenting how Rand looked so different from the locals. They also commented that those in watch hill mixed with outsiders but Tam was strange because he married someone from off. Rand remarks that Mistress Grimwell (Else Grimwell's mother) has yellow hair, a hair color he had never seen before in his life. Rand sees Thom he notices that he has blue eyes and Rand remembers a time he fought Ewal Coplin because he made fun of Rand's grey eyes (so we can infer from that this eye color stands out there and Rand suffered at least one episode of bullying). I think everyone should have been dark skinned, or at least all similar. Its the variaty i did not like.

  • WOT having racial diversity in a village where the book made a huge deal about the fact that everyone looks the same due to isolation and inbreeding. That I had an issue with. This is stupid. It is well established that the doctor can come back looking like anything.

    Why stand in line to board an airplane?
  • no doubt. major pet peeve of mine, people enter a building (IE store) and just STOP blocking the entrance. I get you need to get you bearings but step out of the wat to do it!

    Alabama calls nitrogen execution method 'painless' and 'humane,' but critics raise doubts
  • thank you. the number of incorrect statements by people who just don't get the physiology in this article was driving me nuts. As long as no CO2 buildup happens, you have no feeling of air starvation. That's why certain types of re-breather accidents can get out of hand so quickly.

    Health "care"
  • having been through this exact situation, I get the point of the meme, and realize their intent was that "doctor" should be read as "healthcare industry". Just poor word choice. Other side of the story, the healthcare professionals that cared for him where wonderful and did everything they could for him and I am totally OK with them getting paid for their efforts.

    They were told to leave their homes. They did. They were still bombed
  • tallying up which side did what and who was worse really isn’t productive here

    rephrased...."Let's not bicker and argue over who killed who". Serious conversation and that is what my mind locks on. Go figure.
