Everyone who calls themselves "wolf-something" or "something-wolf" almost inevitably turns out to be an irredeemable shitneck.

« Last post by Eater of Clowns on Today at 11:48:03 am »Mmmm. So good. I daresay, your ability to write dialog is pretty damn good.
Thank you! Someone else on PD told me that a while back and I really appreciate it.
I'm trying to get Lara's word choice just a little off, in a non-native English speaker way. Luckily from being in a Colombian family for half my life I have some experience with how it sounds.

Think for Yourself, Schmuck! / Re: Are we more depressed because we're getting smarter?
« Last post by Junkenstein on Today at 08:57:04 am »I'm not sure what you're getting at. Yahoo answers is full of shit and dumb? That's like me showing you a link to 4chan and saying there's some examples of trolling there.
I'll get round to the rest later.
Your cynicism is impressive, but misplaced in this particular case. It used to be that I, too, thought people were just saying it. I'm not saying yahoo answers users AREN'T dumb, because they have quite a population of atheist regulars there to troll up-err answer the heart-wrenching questions thought up by the good ol' Christians. Don't they know the only real way to troll is in real life, where you're called an extremist or in some cases a terrorist rather than a troll?
I'm not going to try convince you, because cynicism is really a b**** (birch) to argue with and I don't feel like scouring the internet to prove points you won't believe anyway. Have a fantastic day.
You post shitty links and this is now somehow my fault?
Yeah, my cynicism is totally misplaced. Perhaps if you did bother looking for something that actually substantiate your points I'd bother a little more.
Consider:

Your attempt at invalidating my perspective is not going to work, simply because I recognize it as such.
This has an inherent assumption that all perspectives are equally valid and valued. This is not the case for me. Some perspectives, such as racism or such I find no logic or value in. I see no particular reason why I should either.
Claiming "your perspective" is somehow valid, just because it involves you, does not seem rational to me. If anything, it sounds quite childish and self centred.
QG, feel free to request this crap gets split out.

The US says it has evidence that Russia has fired artillery across the border targeting Ukrainian military positions.
Russia also intends "to deliver heavier and more powerful multiple rocket launchers" to pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine, the state department said.

« Last post by zackli on Today at 07:51:24 am »This thread is like when therapy becomes about therapy.
More like when two opposing arguments meet and then one of them proceeds to attempt to destroy the other without letting the other side argue back. Sometimes, I like to imagine I'm arguing with a psychologist but then pull out a gun and shoot him and win. What does psychology have to say about that?
Also, this one time at band camp, I stuck a flute up my urethra.
Sticks and stones may break my bones but your assumptions and sense of superiority will never hurt me.
Am I crazy yet? Do I get my straitjacket or do I need to make it clear I mean to harm someone? One time I almost threw a paper airplane at someone driving a city bus. If that hit him in the eye and I tackled him, we never would have made it off of that bus alive. How's THAT for dangerous? *smirks*

It's dangerous to try and arrest someone with a gun, I guess.
Guess where the new wall is likely to be?
I'm calling Israeli settlers living on the land in question within 5 years. Probably sooner as it gives further justification for military actions/reprisals.

At least two Palestinians have been killed and 200 wounded in the West Bank during protests against Israel's campaign in Gaza, officials say.
About 10,000 protesters marched from Ramallah towards East Jerusalem, where they were met by Israeli forces.
At least 15 people died and scores were injured when a UN-run shelter came under fire in Gaza on Thursday.
Quote
The protest at Qalandia, outside Ramallah, saw Israeli border police use "riot control measures" and live fire. Protesters also used live ammunition, Israel said.

At least 20 protesters were arrested after they threw rocks at police, Israeli police said.

Palestinian families were in the school in Beit Hanoun, fleeing Israel's offensive against Hamas militants when they came under attack on Thursday.
It was the fourth time in as many days that a UN facility has been hit.
Correspondents say pools of blood lay on the ground in the courtyard of the school in Beit Hanoun, and there was a large scorch mark where it appeared a shell had hit.
Quote
Chris Gunness, a spokesman for the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine refugees (Unrwa), said the Israeli army had been formally given the co-ordinates of the shelter in Beit Hanoun.
According to the UN, more than 118,000 people are now sheltering in UN schools and people are running out of food.
Guess where the new wall is likely to be?
Quote
The UN's Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (Ocha) says a 3km (1.9 mile) wide strip, encompassing 44% of Gaza, has been designated as a no-go zone by the Israeli military.
