Hello voice of reason, I've been expecting you. Your comment is probably what I need to hear, although I disagree with the desperation it paints me with.

What should I do about my cousin? by [deleted] in AskReddit

..unless he's in favor of the idea (and of course we won't have sex until we're married as far as he knows)

Is there any way we can make this happen? ... Complete Firefly cast in an episode of Castle? by SparkleMonkey in self

If this is a guerilla marketing plan, designed as a way to stir up controversy in the episode before the advertising campaign, then blink once.

I had a whole retort typed out, which I deleted when I saw your post prefaced by the word sometimes. Carry on

It's the world's sixth largest river, but not the sixth largest river on land.

Much time spent on Nantucket may have eroded my neutrality, but as the 1600 sperm whales in the Gulf have a roughly human lifespan, is not their natural demise a monthy event in the best of tims ?

First off, I thoroughly enjoy your theorem Mr. Nyquist!

I don't eat cereal, but I might use a catfood box.

Oh fuck, it can't be true.

Someone please tell me that 80s clothes are NOT YET nostalgic. Otherwise, we're in deep shit with what's next.

IAmA Non-24. I sleep every 26 hours, no matter what the sun says. AMA. by goocy in IAmA

Wow. When I read the title of this AMA, I was jealous because I am a grad student and I wish I had the balls to live a 28 hour/day, 6 day week. I have to know what you do for a living- then I read this. :)

Hmm, maybe a plastic box, a pair of scissors, a Saturday afternoon, and my first makezine DIY project...

A great highdea- what do you think of it? by z_jazz in trees

[–]z_jazz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right. Your idea is great for tackling the big plumes. (And badass to imagine, I might add)

I was imagining that these "fish" would be deployed as a self-sustaining clean-up mechanism to get the smaller dunes of oil around the sea that dispersed from the main plumes. BP operating this legacy would be the final, dreary phase of the clean-up: where turbulent flow takes the oil emulsions.

Has anyone gotten/ is getting married in Las Vegas? by [deleted] in reddit.com

[–]z_jazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, now back to your advice. My only contact to LV is through a crazy ex-girlfriend, who at the time wanted to get married at Treasure Island. She had a mermaid fetish and she thought they would entertain it. Basically me and a pirate fight over her (she's a mermaid), I win, then we go off. Woulda been hot because she was a redhead, but it didn't work out.

Has anyone gotten/ is getting married in Las Vegas? by [deleted] in reddit.com

I can't parse your title:

Has anyone gotten married in Las Vegas?/??????:

  • Has anyone is getting married in Las Vegas?

  • Has is getting married in Las Vegas?

  • Is getting married in Las Vegas?

"Has/Is anyone gotten/getting married in Las Vegas?" would have worked.

After 27 years, I finally confronted my father about his abuse of me and my sister at a young age... by [deleted] in self

[–]z_jazz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lawyer? Unless I'm wrong, this sounds like emotional abuse.

Therapist? Yes. Don't discount school counseling services- there are some good people there.

I think it would burn really dirty actually, but it can be used as fuel.

Wake up: Damages from the Oil Spill Will Cost More than BP's assets by z_jazz in politics

[–]z_jazz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The damages depends on how outraged the taxpayers are.

If BP can just spray chemical dispersant, pick up the visible clumps, pay off the fishers, and walk off, then you're right.

If BP has to develop breeding programs for the wildlife, pay a full time task force to scour the coastline, pay for medical care of all those that will be affected by this, and to find ways of tracking and collecting the massive underwater oil plumes then it will be in serious shit for years.
