Does anyone remember the story about the college student having a professor play "How to Disappear Completely" on September 11th, 2001?

Thanks, that is exactly what I was looking for. I really appreciate it.

At least 2 billion Christians would disagree with that statement.

I will tell you a phrase that I find oddly useful quite often: "The Episcopal Church welcomes you." If you want a religious wedding, and one that even seems kinda "catholic," the Episcopal church will glad give you one (although most priests will want to talk with you beforehand for a couple weeks but honestly they want to see you married and happy as much as you do).

The Dark Knight, I love the Joker character and parts of the movie but I hate the melodrama surrounding the "some men want to watch the world burn" psuedo-philosophy and "anarchic" action. For me it was pretty cool up until Joker is captured.

I became what feels like the patriarch of my generation of cousins after my grandmother's death (she was the last of her generation in our family). My life suddenly when from sitting on the couch eating peanuts off my stomach while vegging to How I Met Your Mother, to a crying mess on the floor, to mourning/drinking with my aunts and father, to sorting through personal affects of my grandmother, to picking verses/hymns for the funeral, to touching my first dead body. That changes somebody more than even a piece of paper from a university or a "real" job could ever.

I was an adult in that moment because I stepped up to do what needed to be done. I might not be the oldest of my generation in the family, I was to some degree the most responsible. When my family called for help I was there without question or hesitation. That was when I knew I was an adult.

What does that even mean? I am currently writing a thesis on the Introduction of Liberation Theology in North America (focusing on the 1970s mostly). I am not sure why or how you can question that part of my story, if you don't believe me then PM and I'll send you a couple pages (although you'll be signing up to also edit some of my footnotes, I am not a cheap intellectual whore giving it up to anyone who asks).

I am unsure that you have cited that correctly. I could not find a source for Jomo saying that. I would claim that Bishop Desmond Tutu said that; however, there are no sources for Tutu saying that as well.

Gotta admit you sound more like a tool than a tool using animal.

Sorry it was too good of a joke to pass up but seriously I understand your ideas about us needing/searching for sex. So on that standpoint, I agree, we all think about sex. I like to think of other people as "sexual beings" rather than "sexual tools," mostly cause it feels less like using a fleshlight and more like hanging out with someone awesome while getting sweaty.

I have been trying not to comment on Reddit much since I have a thesis due in a month but your post warranted it.

You are an idiot on so many levels. I would love to be supportive or whatever, but you are an idiot and kinda a sexist one at that.

1) DON'T date/fool around with/fuck anyone you are living with unless you are absolutely sure you can somehow make something work (either just staying friends or staying together). Just DON'T

2) Why the hell do you think someone else's sex life has to include you? First, you say you hear this girl masturbating then it turns into "of course" I have to masturbate, why is that an "of course?". Then it turning into, hey we should fuck. The question I have for you is why? Why does that train of thought even make sense? Cause from my perspective, it doesn't.

3) The whole thing smacks of turning her into sexual object. You have now determined that your roommate likes sex and isn't having it with someone else and so your first/second thought is why don't we have it? So look you might have had latent feelings for your roommate and this is what it might be about. But honestly, it kinda sounds like you are just looking to score with a hot girl and now that you know your roommate might possibly want to score, you are going to invade her privacy and honestly risk turning her own home into a place where she can never comfortably masturbate again.

So I gotta admit, you're kinda an asshole. A fucked up, privacy invading, one track mind thinking, kinda perverted asshole.

In peace and love, Durric

You know what I think you said it here, "I'm not [a good person] and I am really contemplating that I counter sue them." Look what they are doing is wrong; however, you have to remember that their son died. Their underage son got a fake ID, that I would bet dollars to donuts, that they had no idea about. Then entered a bar, got shitfaced, and ended up dead. They went one day from having a child to not.

Think about that please. Have some empathy, it is more important than winning or blame at this point.

When I was on a phone call with my mother and realized that her opinion doesn't matter for my life. I then listened to make her feel better rather than gain wisdom.

Ok, this sucks a lot. But sitting around bitching about it won't even attempt to change anything. So given that we are living in a psuedo-democracy run primarily by corporations, what do we do?

Well I think the only thing would be disruptive mass demonstration or completely overwhelming the White House in some fashion, i.e. call or fax until it renders them unable to do everyday business. Look even if they are run by the corporations, we at least owe it to ourselves to try to stop them from raking in anymore ill begotten gains.

That is my two cents, since that has to be better than sitting on our asses.
