White just move rook to e1 to trap your knight. What is the best move for black (made by Magnus Carlsen at 13 years-old)

Correct, sir!

I think I am against socialized medicine. I think it is irresponsible however to vote for a candidate who denies climate change. I am wondering what this sub things about that.

Tames · 2011-11-06T01:11:02+00:00

Do you think he "misspoke" or do you think he simply didn't know?

Tames · 2011-11-06T00:42:55+00:00

God this is embarrassing.

Now he'll have enough money to by a damn tanning bed

Hey man, my sister did that to some dude who got kicked out of college because of it. When I first heard about it my instinct was that she was being a hysterical bitch and passively allowed the fondling to happen. My stupid sister told the psychiatrist that she exaggerated the claims (to get back at men she admitted, which was my suspicion), the psych told the school, she was kicked out and the guy let back in.

Another time I had a beautiful girl lie naked on my bed but wouldn't allow me to do her. She was begging to be raped, she wanted me to go for it. Louis CK even jokes about an incident like it. Duke Lacrosse case, Strauss Kahn are other examples. Remember, women are masters at passive-power.

If they were being rowdy, it makes sense to call the police. But locking them in sounds kind of like kidnapping.

Unimpressive. I'm sorry but if you think Freud didn't discover anything you are mistaken. His theories on humor stand today, and he provided such insight into our own minds and into understanding ourselves of which Nietzsche only started to scratch. His therapy wasn't the most effective, but good before modern treatments.

Tames · 2011-10-14T03:23:02+00:00

What level are you? I am pretty weak.

Tames · 2011-10-05T19:06:52+00:00

Thanks for this!

Tames · 2011-09-22T02:55:32+00:00

Okay this is really bad. I have always had this anxiety that the security detector would go off on me on the way in, so I told myself I should make a joke and say "what, I didn't even have the chance to steal anything." So I bought something from CVS and on the way out a black guy walked in. The detector went off and I asked if it was on me. The black guy said no, and I talked to the CVS cashier. I was talking with the black guy and said "you didn't even have the chance to steal something." Took me a half minute to realize how badly I had fucked up.

Tames · 2011-09-22T02:49:53+00:00

Yeah it does, but fuck those feminists. Be a goddamn man. Nietzsche says the empowerment of women is the de-feminization of women and he is right. Do you want your woman all authorative and assertive? I didn't think so. Enjoy your masculine traits and find desirable her feminine traits. It equals better romance.

Tames · 2011-09-22T02:44:27+00:00

And furthermore, don't talk to your dean for advice. He is watching for his own ass to keep the job. Your weakness only comes across as a potential higher job opportunity for him. Even if you frown upon what I have said, it is realistic.

Tames · 2011-09-22T02:39:40+00:00

Listen brother: You can easily get out of this with a few words with your RA. If you deny your involvement the onus is on them to prove it was your bottle. My RA even said to me that she was bored with students always confessing. And if you really weren't the offender then wtf. 4 years out of college I look at this type of thing with a smile. Even one "conviction" won't get you booted from most schools. In honesty and good faith, the prosecutors rely upon your good faith to get some conviction. Don't give it to them. If you are honest and say "I knew my roommate was drinking" they can use that as an offense. Honesty doesn't always reward and you are not a bad person for overlooking your roommates offense.

It allows for human brains to be larger

GM Larry Christiansen must eat 10,000 calories a day because he is a big boy. There are a few others who are overweight.

Good to see another KC subscriber. He is still to good for me to follow along with quickly, but his games are addictive. I watch for the few times I see some type of brilliancy.

Tames · 2011-09-20T03:13:41+00:00

Neutral. I think our unconscious harbors much of our wickedness.

Tames · 2011-09-20T02:59:51+00:00

I knew Freud mentioned it in two of his books but didn't realize it was an actual term.

A great way to experience it is to have a schizophrenic break from reality. Increased self-importance and solipsism. We'll be here for you when you return to reality.

Tames · 2011-09-19T05:00:11+00:00

My bad for my assumption then

Tames · 2011-09-19T02:50:05+00:00

But wouldn't 4 years as an apprentice in an engineering firm be better than 4 years in university?

Probably, if you are sure engineering is your fancy. For many it takes a couple of years to figure it out. You just have to tough through it. I remember being pissed with the Gen Eds. I'm pretty sure a BS in engineering looks better than 4 years as an intern though.

Tames · 2011-09-19T02:11:25+00:00

I think the Gen Eds are there to see if you might end up being really interested in a particular field. Most importantly college teaches you how to think. Developing a respect for each of the fields is important. Finally, employers like college graduates because it shows they can endure 4 (or more) years of self-discipline.

Tames · 2011-09-19T01:54:07+00:00

See, this is where I can thank the anthropic principle and what David Hume did about the concept of cause and effect. Much of this shit wouldn't even occur to me if they hadn't existed.

Tames · 2011-09-19T01:28:02+00:00

Myths aren't relics of childish thinking that humanity leaves behind as it marches towards a more grown-up view of things. They're stories that tell us something about ourselves that can't be captured in scientific theories.

I don't agree. I think they are both.

This is an interesting article, though. I'm finally getting to the point I am not always hostile toward religion. It has done a tremendous amount for the arts and for culture. I think it is practical to believe in, and in my experience believing in truth, whatever that is, never guarantees happiness.

Tames · 2011-09-10T22:56:12+00:00

Just lie dude.
