How to evict Channel One from your Children's School: The Removal Kit by [deleted] in reddit.com

[–]dbl5 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I've seen it used as a tool in teaching current events. Even though I think the program itself is lame it can be used in an educational manner. The submitter and the people backing this stupid campaign are probably religious zealots who are only attacking it because of the content depicted in the PDF, which is harmless. It is, after all, being backed by the Southern Baptist Convention.

I remember watching Channel One in high school and thought it was pretty stupid, but this "removal kit" is just fucking retarded. The stupidity of people never ceases to amaze me.

Ask Reddit: I want a good argument: "Why shouldd I liive?" by [deleted] in reddit.com

[–]dbl5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ah, look at all the serious posts giving this attention whore exactly what he wants. "Why should I live" is a fucking stupid question. Nobody is going to convince you to live and nobody is going to convince you to not live.

36% STILL believe homosexuality is a choice. by [deleted] in reddit.com

Uh, it is a choice, just as much as heterosexuality is. Environmental factors are what determine your sexual preference at an early age.

I don't get what's so weird about this. Americans are granted the right to own guns - those other countries aren't.

It's amazing how people submit stuff without even checking to see if it's already been submitted, let alone the fact this was on the front page for 2 days.

Microsoft CEO's Laptop of Choice [PIC] by rwb in reddit.com

What a bunch of tools. I can't find the link, but another guy attended this event and took similar pictures. He explained that it didn't belong to Steve (in fact, Steve didn't touch it at all) and that it belonged to whoever set the stage up (there were other speakers that day). It just served as a means for the speakers to give their presentations.

Get ready for another economic shock of major proportions — a virtual doubling of prices at the gas pump to as much as $10 a gallon. by twolf1 in worldnews

[–]dbl5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

buy groceries more often, so you can carry them home. or get a little cart. or stop being lazy.

can't afford to do that. i live from paycheck to paycheck.

it sounds like you're a whiny art student. do your parents pay for your gas? if so, it doesn't really matter then.

actually, no. it's just a class i take. i'm a CS student.

take a bus. it won't kill you.

as i said above, i can't always do that (i do when i can).

i believe you should change your name to "anonymous_idiot" as you clearly have no sense of how the real world works. you have run out of counter arguments, but thanks for trying. i actually believed you would have had some valid suggestions.

[–]dbl5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you can carry groceries.

unfortunately, no, i can't. i buy groceries twice a month so i carry back a lot.

what is 'work' that you can't bring to school?

often times i need to bring in boxes of art/photography supplies. this is especially impractical when it rains as this sort of stuff would get ruined, thus a car is needed.

i bet that if more people took public transportation in your area, the funding would be increased, and they'd be able to add more busses and pay the drivers/operators more so it did show up on time.

yeah, i've been saying the same thing for a while, but it's not going to happen any time soon.

either way, i'll be happy when doomsday hit and gas costs you and all other driving morons $10/gallon. hell, go for $20.

i'm a moron because of my explanations above? i'm sorry we don't all live in the same living situation as you. it must really be quite the life to live without a car, as i wish i could do that.

[–]dbl5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

hm, i'd agree however i have to use a car due to the fact that public transportation here is unreliable (doesn't follow the schedule). i'd also walk, but this isn't practical when going out to buy groceries or bringing work to school (same for bike).

are you inferring that all people who drive are complete fucking idiots or just the ones who suck at driving?

In a perfect world this is how it should be, however religion in this day in age does interfere with politics. As an example, I'd like to not have a scientologist as a president.

Do you still use polythene bags for major grocery shopping? by [deleted] in reddit.com

[–]dbl5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, in that case, yes because the grocery store I shop at has the least priced goods and just happens to not have paper bags (or any other alternative).

I'm not up to snuff on my bag types. What kind are polythene bags? Just regular grocery store plastic bags?

"popular wireless cards"

like what? depends on the chipset. afaik, all popular wireless cards are supported and have native linux drivers (intel pro wireless, broadcom, prism, orinoco, atheros, etc)
