*snip RoI* The only reason to vote black is for interracial lesbian action? Well spotted. The black model has a very unlikely figure for a fella. And the white hands are rather delicate, meaning there's a good chance that the caucasian model is female as well... Mmm. I don't know for sure. But I do...

I don't like seeing nudity everywhere I go.

Then don't go anywhere. You'll be happier that way.

Or you could just break your stupid aversion to the human body, by ... going to the beach ?

What does it mean? The only reason to vote black is for interracial lesbian action? Well spotted. The black model has a very unlikely figure for a fella. Yeah, I'm getting it now. If I saw it on bus shelters and billboards a few times, I would have time to think about it and get it for sure. I bet ...

Um. I'm sympathetic to the Greens. I like dissonant messages (which make the electorate think, not simply obey their prejudices.) But that looks like a bad idea. The association of conservatives with the colour black and the use of a "black" model in the image, is exactly the kind of racia...

That was too hard for me.

Please don't tell me I have to read the thread. The rest of your post made sense, but ...

EDIT: Removed. Way too mean.

They even went after Doctor Who. DOCTOR WHO! Because whatever the hell they're calling U.N.I.T. now, it originally stood for United Nations Intelligence Taskforce. Bunch of stuffy morons. Who to side with here? The Yank who likes a cult-fail BBC television sci-fi series? And happens to be a mod? Or...

Delicate use of an almost worn-out running joke. You've been good these last few weeks.

However hard people try, they cannot choose passwords which are both memorable (to them) and unpredictable to others. True random is not something humans do well. The only way to choose a strong password is to choose something you can't remember. So you have to write it down (mine are written in pen...

Just to make that plain: you're agreeing with me, right? I think so. You only have to notice how the surface of the planet gets hotter as the sun shines on it, to realize just how much energy is available from sunlight. Try warming your back yard with an electric heater. It's a LOT of energy, shini...

Intestinal fluids How a politician stands on the Second Amendment tells you how he or she views you as an individual… as a trustworthy and productive citizen, or as part of an unruly crowd that needs to be lorded over, controlled, supervised, and taken care of. I'd agree with that, but not for the ...

Hopefully everyone can agree that achieving that would be a good thing. It isn't, since the government has taken it upon itself to decide who is and is not a criminal. The government does this anyway. That's why we have judges, courts, policemen, DA's, and prisons. To suggest otherwise is patently ...

This quote needs to be posted at the top of every page of these debates.

piss off

I wred the OP. They have to scrape the bottom of the barrel. There isn't that much good documentary that they can show all new stuff, and for now (not everyone has TIVO) they have to compete with other channels on an hour-by-hour basis. Showing the same stuff over and over doesn't cut it. Plus, ther...

Lol. Which of the four is your favourite book? For me, the first. But then, I do favour the first album of any band, the early work of any artist. I prefer the clumsy gropings for humour or profundity, to the polished imperfection of the mature voice. Hey, has anyone written the Book yet? The actua...

How come Kenny almost always dies in every episode, and then comes back to life for the next? It's like he's freakin Jesus. It creeps me out! Not a scholar of the South Park. But from the first time I saw him "reincarnate," I have taken it as a joke on the plot of all stories. Whether &qu...

Gravitons are many orders of magnitude more plausible than tachyons. However, tachyons are many orders of magnitude more awesome than gravitons, so that evens out. ;) If Star Trek has taught us anything its that tachyons can do fucking anything. These tachyons you speak of ... if they fuck anything...

Fusion power on earth is certainly possible. The idea that it is "nuclear power without nuclear waste" is wrong though. It will always involve hard radiation, and unless it is at a safe distance (eg, Sol) that will create nuclear waste. Yep, but the radioactive waste you have from fusion ...

For example, a proposed plan to use the entire Sahara desert for solar-thermal power would only supply 20% of Europe's current energy needs. So if we had 4 more Sahara Deserts, then solar power could provide electricity. To Europe. I skimmed that. It doesn't say anything about using "the entir...

When the Janis Joplin song 'Mercedes Benz' was used in the Mercedes adverts most people seemed to think that the marketing folks were oblivious to the irony of using an anti-consumerist song to sell their product, but I disagree. The joke is surely on those who oppose consumerism, when their attemp...

Completely irrelevant story, based on the thread title. I was in school. I heard the song on the radio "Video killed the radio star." I liked it. Then I tried to explain to a classmate, how Video was a Roman god, and radio stars were stellar bodies which were only visible in the radio spec...

Poetry bothers me.

But at least I have the humility to see the fault in myself (that I am so easily bothered.)

If you see mindlessness in poetry, perhaps you are likewise seeing yourself.
