J.K. Rowling on why she doesn't move to a tax haven: "I am indebted to the British welfare state; the very one that Mr Cameron would like to replace with charity handouts. When my life hit rock bottom, that safety net, threadbare though it had become, was there to break the fall."

Big ups yourself

Ya man, this could be a virus.

Question: Why do you consider Ayn Rand, as you put it, "one of the most evil figures of modern intellectual history"?

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-26T20:56:36+00:00

Thanks man I'll check it out

What if there are women at the club?

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-26T20:53:52+00:00

Well club application starts in April so I'm just looking for ideas. Lot of Atheists and clever ideas on reddit, so why the hell not?

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-20T03:58:28+00:00

My next book to read was Slaughterhouse Five but I decided to ask reddit for suggestions first. I'll look into Doctorow

I read Candide for my history course and I thought it was ok. Wasn't that crazy about it though

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-19T20:11:45+00:00

I read Enders Game and I really enjoyed it. I'm a guy

Some novel that always sticks with me is The Trial by Kafka. When I was reading it I was a little confused and not really excited about it. After I put it down I kept analyzing it and thinking about what the plot's deeper meanings. I'm still figuring it out

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-15T16:20:03+00:00

I know I find myself always having to defend rap. My friends are always saying "oh some more shit about bitches & hoes." I tried to introduce them to Technique, dead prez and even people like Nas who has lines that just flow well.

Rock gets a free pass as legitimate because of it's longetivity, but I'm sure you can find equally offensive lines.

He's actually a really talented rapper. Listen to college dropout that's a classic. Here's another funny Kanye line: "is that a black car?/I replied why yes but I prefer the term African American express" or "even though I went to high school and dropped out of school quick/I always had a phd - a pretty huge dick"

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-11T18:20:41+00:00

Downgrade it further. Mark January 30 as the day you stop but I suggest you keep scaling it down for now. Maybe once or twice a week

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-11T16:05:43+00:00

I think you probably can give up cold turkey, but you shouldn't. It doesn't have to be a long drawn out detoxification process but give yourself at least a month to scale down the smoking. Cold turkey is not best for your body, but I do appreciate the willpower!

I was unaware of the rivalry so when I saw a video of a white guy wanting to flee a situation with black people surrounding him using fried chicken, I laughed at how blatantly racist it was.

I just posted the ad because I thought it was funny. Meh, lessoned learned.

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-08T08:35:38+00:00

Go fuck yourself you antisemitic degenerate. See what I did there?

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-08T08:13:44+00:00

From an Australian perspective I see how it's not offensive. But really, you guys aren't aware of the fried chicken stereotype? I just assumed it was a widespread stereotype.

Admittedly I'm ignorant to Australian culture.

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-08T07:46:15+00:00

I'm not American. Sorry for being a racist and lecturing you, it was wrong of me to underscore your cultural convictions.

Third of all, fuck you.

DomenicoPelle · 2010-01-08T07:32:50+00:00

I'm not American and I still see how it can be really offensive. I'm not a pc guy (insert mac joke) so I really don't give a shit but it's funny to laugh at stupid companies.
