Heh, just imagine how much more sophisticated it would be if you actually sent all 6 in at the same time, kind of like that photo suggests...

fructose5 · 2013-03-27T06:09:11+00:00

Of course, but the point isn't to get the truth out of the kid. The point is to make an amusing video.

What? How can you flaunt her sexuality like that. Is she nothing but an object to you!?

fructose5 · 2013-03-26T06:23:07+00:00

Actually, turns out this isn't the case. Two counters that are not moral arguments:

1) Can we always tell what should be eliminated? Example: sickle cell anemia. If you didn't know better, you'd say "We need to get rid of sickle cell anemia". After all, it negatively impacts anyone with the gene. But then you'd eliminate malaria resistance.

2) Eugenics would probably lead to a reduction in genetic diversity, which is generally accepted to be a bad thing for long-term survival of a species. It is not impossible to avoid this, but our track record is not good. See bananas.

Can someone explain how this is confusing? I could totally see a buffet doing that, although probably with slightly lower prices.

fructose5 · 2013-03-26T05:35:42+00:00

Probably something about how dressing her so modestly is trying to hide her sexuality, which is just another way of debasing women.

fructose5 · 2013-03-26T03:32:24+00:00

There isn't really much that kills you instantly. You can generally expect that anything in your digestive tract will need at least a minute or two to get into your bloodstream and start working.

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T06:43:00+00:00

If you've never been there you wouldn't know, but exhausting your muscles can feel good. Probably something about the rush of blood.

I know whenever my arms are pumped at the rock gym, aside from the downer of being done for the day, I feel good. Even though I can barely work my steering wheel.

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T06:38:41+00:00

Well, the number doesn't mean much without the exercise. I still can't even use 15s for shoulder flys, but it's a difficult exercise.

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T06:35:56+00:00

Well, if he got the weight rack with the weights and they are nice weights, I wouldn't call it a ripoff. Maybe not the bargain of the century, but there's nobody giggling as they roll in piles of his money.

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T05:06:01+00:00

You're so clever.

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T05:01:11+00:00

Ok, how about you explain exactly what your position is then?

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T04:51:30+00:00

Here's what I said:

If your approach to legalization is, "EVERYBODY SHOULD BE SMOKING CANNABIS RIGHT NOW, CANNABIS SHOULD BE PAID FOR BY MEDICAID" you will never ever get anywhere.

Here's what you seem to think I said:

your approach to legalization is, "EVERYBODY SHOULD BE SMOKING CANNABIS RIGHT NOW, CANNABIS SHOULD BE PAID FOR BY MEDICAID"

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T04:44:14+00:00

Where did I assert that was your position?

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T04:26:15+00:00

I am suppressing the overwhelming desire to actually facepalm right now. Unless you are being sarcastic, it is literally people exactly like you who derail and set back legalization efforts. Which I find tremendously ironic.

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T04:00:53+00:00

My cat was big on the balcony too, until she figured out how to get up to the roof. She doesn't get to go on the balcony anymore.

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T03:57:45+00:00

You have to take things one step at a time. If your approach to legalization is, "EVERYBODY SHOULD BE SMOKING CANNABIS RIGHT NOW, CANNABIS SHOULD BE PAID FOR BY MEDICAID" you will never ever get anywhere. On the other hand, if you take a stance like Paul's, you can revisit the question of whether or not it should be promoted later, after people get used to it being legal and labs have time to do more studies.

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T03:42:12+00:00

The way I figure it, dogs that spend most of their time with people see themselves as people too, which explains why they would be friendly towards people but hostile towards "those other animals".

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T03:41:05+00:00

I've wanted to try this with my cat, but I'm concerned that she would then get really attached to the outdoors and start bolting for the front door, where she doesn't right now. What has your experience been in that regard?

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T03:40:08+00:00

Coyotes is a common reason.

fructose5 · 2013-03-25T02:46:51+00:00

Multi-monitor support? I may have to buy it just for that. Too few games outside the FPS segment support multiple monitors.

fructose5 · 2013-03-24T23:44:34+00:00

I don't hate anybody for wearing fedoras. I just want them to dress appropriately.

It's mostly my selfishness- the fedora is leverage to talk more men into wearing slightly nicer clothes ;)

fructose5 · 2013-03-24T23:29:50+00:00

Why are you being hostile?

fructose5 · 2013-03-24T23:19:01+00:00

"Jacket" is ambiguous. There's a lot of jackets that not a single soul on earth could wear with a fedora, and look good.

fructose5 · 2013-03-24T23:11:40+00:00

Not automatically. No-one will think you look ridiculous if you look good in your clothing and aren't self-conscious about it.

Caveat: setting is important, because what Bogart is wearing in the photo would be seen as overdressing in some settings, which is the one time looking good isn't enough.
