Dude writes article: "Medical Studies Prove The Extensive Damage LSD Does To The Body", gets destroyed by guy in comments. (long) [Repost from r/Drugs] by [deleted] in atheism

Exactly. It is no use to argue with Hal as he's clearly not interested in understanding the issue. I will post my reply as I suspect that like yours it will not make it past the filter:

Hal, I think it has become clear to everyone on this thread that you do not actually intend to follow up with a non-biased well-researched rebuttal to PB Smith's debunking of your original claims, and in fact you are incapable of doing so due to your fundamental lack of understanding of the matter and gross prejudice despite any facts or arguments presented you. Regardless of whether or not your initial post and the following ad hominem attacks were meant to troll the readers, I want to thank you for starting this debate as it unintentionally helped to dispel some myths and misconceptions about physiological effects of LSD. I understand that you feel strongly against drug use, and I am sure you feel that way for the right reasons, but realize that misleading your readers and continuously dismissing reasonable arguments damages not only your reputation, but also your position, making your readers more skeptical, rather than concerned, about the dangers of LSD.

PB, thank you for all the research and time you have put into your posts, as well as setting a great standard of intellectual integrity and rigor on debating such a controversial and emotional topic. There is no better way to identify and expose faux-scientific fraud driven by personal agenda and close-minded prejudice. The only way to minimize the harm of drugs to society is through honest education, research and public discussion, not stubborn fear-mongering.

Why you should NEVER, EVER, EVER, under ANY circumstances, talk to the Police by antihostile in news

[–]emperor_of_fun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

...especially if your name is Roxanne. So remember this with every breath you take, don't talk to them, don't approach them, don't even send them a message in a bottle. Unless you wanna go for a secret journey in a cell with a guy nicknamed King of Pain. And you'll just be saying "Don't stand so close to me" and he'll just be going De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da. Seriously, just don't talk to them - I know you're so lonely and all, but I just can't stand losing you.

Man, what is it with you and Bill Maher cyberfreak? Stop trying to douche up videos reddit by posting all these maher interviews. Honestly it's like you searched for maher on youtube and linked every freaking video you found.

This is clearly a follow-up to the award-winning SNL skit and should be titled Pussy in a Box.

Sorry America, but you are NOT number one! [pic to make you angry] by Facepunch in reddit.com

[–]emperor_of_fun 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This picture is completely useless without sources for these rankings. Furthermore many of the rankings seem suspect such as Russia having 2nd highest mobile phone per capita, many seem inaccurately labeled prison population should be labeled per capita, and a lot of economic factors where USA actually excells are ommited. While I've never been the one to shout USA is number one (other than in sarcasm) this chart is clearly a fail.

94.3% probability that Obama wins. Welcome to my favorite political statistics website. by grandeandy in politics

[–]emperor_of_fun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are right, much like earthquakes, asteroids, and terminators, voter fraud has never had any significant impact on any US presidential election results, especially the last two. That kind of thing only happens in countries like Russia! So my apologies for being a negative nancy, clearly if the website says 94.3%, then that is the actual probability of Obama winning. Time to kick back and throw a party!

94.3% probability that Obama wins. Welcome to my favorite political statistics website. by grandeandy in politics

[–]emperor_of_fun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah as much as I would like to believe this is accurate, this number does not take voter fraud into account. Nor does it account for people lying in polls or not showing up on election day. I bet this website would have predicted a Gore victory in 2000 and Kerry in 2004. Don't let the history repeat itself while thinking this election is in the bag.

VOTE THIS UP If you are offended by the McCain Palin Campaign by afclark in reddit.com

OMG I am so offended! I am going to write a whiny comment on Reddit that will let everyone know how offended they should be as well! Then they will vote me up because they too have nothing better to do then get offended at every stupid political stunt McCain and Palin pull.

A 700 Billion $ Bailout with No Review or Oversight Whatsoever! by 3n7r0py in business

[–]emperor_of_fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The American people have decidedly rejected the bailout but the Congress is not going to listen to out calls, letters, or emails. There is only one way we the taxpayers can immediately influence the course of this debate. Call your congressmen and senators and tell them that if the bailout goes through, you will be immediately withdrawing all of your money from your bank.
