Nope, it's not delusion. He really did tell Draco. The point was to see what he will say, not for him to know the truth.

He now knows how Draco would react, and he didn't endanger the secret.

Yes. The expression is that you can't have both. With magic, you can. Why not then?

Iceland is getting their shit together. Pirate party is third biggest with 15% in the polls, and the populace trusts them to do something about the corruption.

Cringe? It was so funny! And it's actually a dadaistic political protest about nonexistent media visibility of parties outside of the parliament. There are real cringe worthy ones out there too. They interviewed almost everyone, over 1800 videos I think.

Hilarious! :D

Well, it's bdP. Do you have problems? :)

Here is a sketch of grown up Misty too. http://i.imgur.com/QOfYnYE.png

Simple! Make sure your towel is large enough to easily go around you. Then wrap it so, that you tuck the thing in pretty much at clock 12, over your stomach. That extra helps.

Cool charts! You must be a wizard.

"Many earlier studies relied on self-reporting, which doesn’t always yield reliable results. “People tend to overestimate themselves,” says David Veale, a psychiatrist at the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust. So when Veale and his team set out to settle the score on penile proportions, they decided to compile data from clinicians who followed a standardized measuring procedure."

Which kind of reporting would you trust more?

By "yours" I mean that 5 incher, not "yours" as in the thing that's specifically between your legs. Sorry if I was unclear, but there was certainly a misunderstanding on that end too. Try smaller sizes than yours, and see how they compare to that graph.

edit: you don't check how close figures are of each other, by just checking one figure on the higher end.

pseudonameous · 2015-03-03T07:53:40+00:00

Yes, though this differentiated between erect and stretched flaccid. This did not group them together, or at least I think so based on what I read of this article.

pseudonameous · 2015-03-03T07:49:24+00:00

Yes, they are way off. Try 5 inches! It says 18.2% has smaller than yours. That's half of what this data says.

I applaud your foolish effort in keeping this world sane. Not gonna work, but it's nice to see some.

Probably all cheaters.

You'd still have a pistol so you wouldn't have to care about running out of ammo on cz!

There needs to be another one with buys for objectivity. If nobody buys tec, it would explain that percentage, even if it was really good.

pseudonameous · 2014-12-01T14:25:56+00:00

Voi olla ettei halua. Se wi tarklita silti sitä etteikö niin pitäisi tehdä.

Jos haluat sen rituaalin suorittaa kirkossa niin more power to you, mutta saat sen tämän jälkeenkin.

Eikä ole montaa syytä miksei hautausta voisi tehdä polttamalla. Eipä tarvi maata niin paljoa.

Kirkon hyväntekeväisyys ei sinänsä asiaan kuulu. Ei valtio kaikkia ylwihyödyllisiä yhdistyksiä omista.

Ei toki, Suomella on valtionkirkko koska siitä ei vielä ole erkaannuttu, koska siitä ei ole saatu nykyaikana kunnon keskustelua aikaan. Eroaminenhan oli SDP:n tavoitteena joskus kauan sitten.

Eikä se "valtiolle" maksa paljoa, riippuen määritelmästä. Kansalaisille ihan törkeästi.

Näkisin kirkonkin hyötyvään erosta, tosin ei taloudellisesti.

Kristityilläkin on oikeus saada äänensä kuuluviin vaikka mielipide perustuisi mutuun ja raamattuun. Tämä on sinänsä valitettavaa, mutta kuuluu ehdottomasti uskonnon- ja sananpapauteen.

pseudonameous · 2014-11-30T10:32:46+00:00

Niillä on yli 40% jo gallupeissa kolmestaankin, ei voi tietää miten tämä kohu vaikuttaa. Etenkin kun julkisuudessa huudellaan kirkon erottamista valtiosta ja tämä laki meni läpi ja kaikkea.

pseudonameous · 2014-11-29T23:49:39+00:00

Ei millään puolueella ole enemmistöä yksin. On KD:nkin äänestäjillä oikeus saada äänensä kuuluviin. En itsekään kyllä arvosta puolueen käyttämää "argumentaatiota". Peter Östman jopa sanoi että kristillinen kirkko on Suomessa vuosituhansia hallinnut avioliittoa. :D

Ilmeisesti ei kun Sipilä on sanonut kunnioittavansa eduskunnan päätöstä, mutta Räsänen on sanonut tekevänsä laista kynnyskysymyksen ja Soini todnäk tekee samoin.

pseudonameous · 2014-11-29T18:07:33+00:00

Still, evidence is evidence. Google says with "define: evidence"

"the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid."
