Actually, the main thing isn't that men and women work that differently. Granted, certain things differ somewhat.
However, the main thing is that when you live with someone, you REALLY get to know them. Very few people have the same set of priorities as you do, also, they don't function the same mentally, physically or socially. Meaning, as you understand more and more about just how different the one you are living with is from you, you get more and more perplexed.
This problem isn't lessened for gay people.
When you talk to buddies over beer, mostly they listen and say "hear hear!" to anything you say. Meaning, they hear an annoying thing without context and sympathize that it's been shitty to you, not really caring about the difference between "I stubbed my toe!" or "I got fired!" or "My wife whines all fucking day!".
In sweden, we have to wait close to a year for most shows. That's why everyone who knows how pirates stuff, being a year behind is absurd in an online world.
If you have no proof of something existing or not existing, you do not know whether it exists or not. Thus it is a matter of belief.
Disbelief is having a belief, in an atheists case, the active belief that there can be no god in a traditional sense. Lack of belief would be the case for an agnostic, not believing in the existence or non-existence of a deity but simply stating that you are open to evidence either way, but up until that point, no steps will be taken assumiing a deity exists or doesn't exist. And, yeah, atheism and agnosticism builds societies in almost exactly the same way.
It's a standardized contract giving you plenty of small benefits and a good legal framework for what happens if you break up. In many countries it is also the only good way for a man to be guaranteed right to be the legal parent of his children.
Also, it's a good hallmark way to say that you have an intention to spend your life with that person.
For me, my proposal to my wife came at such a time that I could foresee no major hurdles which would break us up.
And the spending on the wedding is more along the lines that it is a very good opportunity to get together in a festive way.
So being mean to someone is ok as long as you don't go over the line and harass them? It's ok to lie to people to get them to do non-economic favors for you?
I could go on.
Operating within the boundaries of the law is a lawful act, not a good one.
Morals are seperate from the law, it's really that simple.
Also, the main reason that these loop-holes exist is that it's hard to prosecute over national borders when it comes to taxation.
Actually, it's paranoid delusions that correlate with a high intelligence somewhat. Or, to be more precise, elaborate paranoid delusions.
Paranoid Scizophrenia occurs through the entire spectrum and should NOT be confused with general paranoia. I've met both categories, the difference between the two is that one chooses his own beliefs (no matter how flawed) over the official explanations, even the ones from peer-reviewed research, often due to a misunderstanding of what is being said, but also quite often since we are being taught simple "truths" due to the fact that the complex truths are quite hard to explain to non-professionals in a given field.
Let me put it this way, I know a guy who, when ANYTHING is annoying/unexplained he blames "them". His shirts have shrunk? UN did it. His camera is slightly out of wack in settings from what he remembers from using it the last time? THEY did it, fortunately, he's vigilant enough to notice it and thus it didn't work.
This sounds like I'm making it up, but, no, he's DEAD set on these things, confronting him on these, for him, extremely important details makes him certain that you are one of "them". And no, I'm not in a position where I can avoid him and I'm not in a position where I can help him.
My point is that paranoid delusions are, generally, things that in some way make sense AND is not trivial to circumvent while scizo is definitely NOT sensible. Meaning, they have fully formed arguments about them and they also generally work well in society as well (even if extreme cases like Anders Behring Breivik exist (a current terrorist in Norway, complex case up in the courts right now)), most importantly, they can generally NOT be "cured" by drugs while scizoid people can (although temporarily, and only of the scizoid part, so the paranoia may remain). Psychologists generally don't treat paranoid people since, well, they are generally well-adjusted and can hold a job and so forth.
Paranoid scizos often freak out when confronted, meaning, they generally avoid discussion on the internet unless they are sure they can't be argued against.
The point isn't regarding price for a person, it's about availability of food. Huge difference.
Meaning, is it possible to farm as space-effieciently enough, not cost-efficiently.
Costs are less of a problem than you think in a society which has problems, for instance, minimum wages can easily be removed and we can go back to systems we used before where survival (meaning, food and shelter) where the main attraction of working on a farm.
And you can just say that the only requirement on using it is not to claim anyone in particular created it. That's pretty much the most open license you can have.
Err, with your logic, vegetarianism is not better either.
As far as is practical vegans don't, hmm, for a lack of a better word (not native english-speaker) support abuse of animals to get products.
Doing that is by far morally superior to supporting abuse of animals (if you consider animal rights and the animal industry to be morally problematic, of course).
Eating meat is actually pretty much morally equivalent to drinking milk, both are part of the exact same industry of death.
And, I'm lacto-ovo vegetarian, since, well, going further than that would seriously inconvenience me, even if I eat most of my food fully vegan.
Try abusing people on the street on mistakes they make. See their reaction.
Humans don't respond well to negatively toned criticism even IF the purpose is constructive.
Besides, as an avid LoL player, I know, with not a single shred of doubt that when people start whining, you lose. Every single non-constructive word is time wazted from playing, I've seen people wonder why they have 20% less resources than the opposition and then try to explain to them that if they stand around typing 5% of the time, the snowball effect makes it so that the opposite team has already won.
So, yeah, no. You are quite simply wrong.
Abusive talks works when you play with friends since then you have a certain repertoire, this does not translate well to strangers.
Or you know, if I have to chose between things like hanging out with my wife, friends or playing games. The games better be a nice place to hang out or there is no reason for me to play.
I'm not a loser who needs to full time with arguments over a bloody game. And I play lots of games still, I love playing. But when people treat a game like something which is worth bullying people about, they've missed the point entirely.
So, what you are saying is quite simply that you are a lonely fuck who's only percieved value is your gaming skill. And seriously, I just feel sad at the number of people I see who are exactly like that.
No one is saying that buying an apple computer is as cheap as it's components. If it where, they wouldn't make a dime.
What people are saying is that if you compare Apple to Dell, HP or any other company which sells whole computers for personal use, they aren't more expensive if you buy the same thing.
This is pretty much true, buying decent pre-built system IS hard.
One of the main reasons the argument is flawed though is that the main reason that it's so bloody hard to match a system on all aspects since, well, the market is extremely limited compared to the whole "build your own thing".
Otoh, I got a 15.6" inch laptop, the same basic weight as a macbook 15.6" with a matte full HD display and a good graphics card (not as good as the macbooks though) for about half the price. Knowing what you want and need are more important than the other factors.

Buying a laptop with an included ssd is ridicolous.
Buy something cheap and simple and functioning like http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-4334DBU-15-6-Inch-Laptop-Black/dp/B007CKQMPI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338109451&sr=8-1 with a separate SSD, preferably a samsung 830 with enough storage for her needs.
In sweden, we have great comparative services, not sure if pricerunner exists in USA, if it does, it filters decently but not great.
And, yeah, buying directly from the big names is hell, it's way easier buying from retailers, at least in sweden.
In sweden, we have to wait close to a year for most shows.
That's why everyone who knows how pirates stuff, being a year behind is absurd in an online world.

It's a smart move actually.
If you marry someone you started dating before they knew you had money, you know they like you and not just your wallet.
This is not a small thing.
Living in the very, VERY regulated country of Sweden I would like source for that statement.
Arch breaks often in it's update and is seriously not recommended in production environments.
Second debian though.
Paranoid delusions are quite close.
However, the scizoids have seen the evidence, literally, their senses have shown them the truth.
They aren't believers, they are people trusting what they see and hear.
The problem is that what they see and hear is simply not what most people would call true.
Please explain how, not that I'm a psychologist, but I had this conversation with one the other day.
As I said, I'm not in a position where it's possible to avoid him.
No, it follows that there are very few rules for internationeal taxing which actually work.
So being mean to someone is ok as long as you don't go over the line and harass them?
It's ok to lie to people to get them to do non-economic favors for you?
I could go on.

SUSE and Mandriva are RPM-based and are thus based on Red hat.

I don't buy stuff which has annoying restrictions.
Neither do I download them.
Even if I would've otherwise.
And you can just say that the only requirement on using it is not to claim anyone in particular created it.

Cause it's got massive evidence indicating that it's very bad for you.
There are no such studies on veganism.
So, you're a pathetic fuck with anger issues, thus you want to take it out on people having a good time?
Nice.
Try abusing people on the street on mistakes they make.
See their reaction.

Shitloads died.
Let's focus on why it happened and how to prevent things like it to happen again.
Like, for instance, the government not being hellbent on forcing it's will above the states.
Not even written like an american, but as a person who saw what government trying to force it's will down upon unwilling states resulted in.
And, yeah, the same thing is happening right now, both in Europe and in USA.
