So far, from what I've noticed, we've agreed on everything except economic regulation policy. I think we're more alike than you give us credit for ;-)

In a way. I believe in utilitarian happiness policies out of pure self-interest - I want society to owe me more happiness. So in a way, my motivations for supporting economic regulation aren't really based on any sort of ethical moralism, simply a belief that I would gain more happiness from a more economically anarcho-communitarian society than a liberal or authoritarian society.
I imagine if we probed a little deeper over a couple of beers, though, you'd appear way more amoral than I. I, for example, don't tag-switch or take advantage of customer service agents' desire to please in order to get free products like my girlfriend does, because I feel icky ripping off businesses, even when I think that they deserve it. And I'm not into killing people, and I prefer to address the current world situation as it obviously is - a humanitarian crisis. So I guess you could say I have some sort of underlying ethical philosophy in that I'm a bit of a humanist.

Hey I got a lot of people to donate to Jerry's kids. Given I got them to donate by suggesting my little brother died of MS.
In fact I made the manger look so good he will adjust the price on a lot of items at the grocery store to 99 cents for me. Also the manager has made my strategy store wide for the current donation drive for Texas children hospitals we all wear pictures of children who have died now. I am so proud to have spread my Amoralism.

"All available officers, report downtown, armed suspected firing wildly into the public."

Yes.
Unless of course it's not OK for a woman to ask for a female to ask for a female officer to carry out body checks. In which case, the answer would be no.

It's all waffle. Nobody's willing to admit that wine doesn't actually have a taste.

I was quoting Black Books.
But yes, I agree with what you said. I've actually likened it to petroleum. Although white wine actually does taste good. Red is crap, though.

"Why is self-control, autonomy, such a threat to authority? Because the person who controls himself, who is his own master, has no need for an authority to be his master. This, then, renders authority unemployed. What is he to do if he cannot control others? To be sure, he could mind his own business. But that is a fatuous answer, for those who are satisfied to mind their own business do not aspire to become authorities." ~ Thomas SzaszThe Empire of Pretantia wrote:[...] TLDR; welcome to the internet.
