It just an expression used in Michigan and Ohio a lot. I'm not sure if they do or not. My limited experience with ducks is that they love big fat juicy insects for snackage.
Oh I know. That's why I prefer my PTP transactions to be me handing over (or accepting) banknotes. Unfortunately this is hard to do if you're in Michigan and you want give your pal in Ontario $12 USDs. Not a big deal really but who wants the "imperial entanglements" that go with converting USDs to CDs and paying the conversion fees, showing ID (which will be recorded), and etc.? And of course if what you're buying or selling is pr0n or something else you'd rather not disclose (or be able to be discovered) what's the alternative? Not PayPal that's for sure.
is being cautioned here. If you claim your back was hurt in a slip n fall accident and you show recent pictures of yourself skiing or running a marathon on FB you may have an issue. I'd be more afraid of stalkers, identity thieves, scammers, and the like getting your data.
Agreed. If I don't want to sell a published item it isn't censorship. Censorship occurs when the police and courts actively prohibit published works. You shouldn't have to be a libertarian ideologue or an ACLU dweeb to understand that.
A lame article really. The products may not be your cup of tea but they ain't all half bad either. Except for the "iPad made simple" one. That choice was more funny than lame.
Frisking bad as it is, is unlikely to give you cancer, deform your eggs/sperm, or sterilize you. So there's that.

is the new meme for the internet? Fuck 'em. If they wanna get paid let them invent something I really need or want. Fuck 'em if they don't. Their desire to be billionaires is not a claim against me.
I'm just sayin'. It has all the hallmarks of a IT grad student behavioral study experiment or perhaps a prank or a hoax. Are people really that stupid?
I think they mean "record" as in "silly, pompous, official organ of the establishment's conventional wisdom and the status quo".
And: Did you get a whiff of the latest stink of scandal from the "All the news that's fit to print" outfit today? Yet another NYT plagiarism scandal.
...the US should buy their aircraft from MiG. The AK rifle is cheap, simple to produce and maintain and it just works and works and works under any and all conditions. If MiG's planes are even half as good, this would be a hell of a bargain.

It's not. That's the problem.

And so the best thing about PayPal is also the worst thing about it too.
Look for the government and lesser snoops to dive on this like a duck on june bug.

The article says "this phenomenon doesn't yet have an official name," [yet] but it actually does. It's called "lying".

Aluminum foil? There are some serious comfort issues with that choice of material.

he is open to all comers what with not having to face the voters again. Bought and paid for. Good riddance to this asshole.
that comes up with the R&D money for this stuff? Where are the "free market" entrepreneurs that neo-liberal economists are always blabbing about?
He can't even stay awake during committee hearings. He should retire. He doesn't know shit abo

Hooray for capitalism! What an asshole. A privileged white male from America lecturing us on what creative thing slums are!
I am shocked, (shocked!) to discover capitalists exploiting people for their own profits! Shocked I tell you!
it's hard to see how this can possibly be legal. A warrant being issued without judicial review first? That's like an omelet without a egg.

The "newspaper of record"? What bs.

...and we'll see what he says then. It always looks different when you're outside looking in. Talk to us after your first layoff kiddo.
I'd rather live in a capsule than in a cardboard box in an alley somewhere. Safer, warmer, and more secure.
Until we go there and see. Interesting idea though.
