  1. Re:Equivalent to 38 murders on Three Indicted In Scareware Scam That Netted $100M · · Score: 1

    Well, based on my own price index, which I call the 20-Ounce Coke Index, the value of a human is worth about $6.3 million.

    Why?

    Because the price of a 20-ounce Coca Cola in 1994 was $0.59. Today it is $1.69. Which is a factor of about 2.865, because 0.59 * 2.865 = 1.69.

    So $2,200,000 * 2.865 = $6,303,000.

    Troll? Well, at least I'm not an anonymous coward, bitch.

    The guy insulted me for no reason. Am I a troll for disagreeing or for saying the F-word?

    I'm making a point that the right to privacy is less explicit in the US constitution than it is in the Alaska constitution. The right to privacy of the Alaska constitution allows people to smoke pot legally in their own home because as interpreted by the courts privacy is based on the sanctity of the bond between man and women in the privacy of their own bedroom.

    That's WAY DIFFERENT than the protections the US constitution affords us.

    The US constitution does not guarantee a right to privacy.

    As opposed to the Alaska constitution section 22, which does.

  11. Re:But without water, there's no life (as we know on Water Not a Good Enough Guide To Find Alien Life · · Score: 1

    Ok, I think I'm figuring it out now.
    In the example:
    A simple example would be "I think he is unattractive because he is ugly." The adjective "ugly" does not explain why the subject is "unattractive"

    That begs the question. Meaning, the premise has not been proved. So, I think it might be correct to say, "This begs the question: why is he ugly/unattractive?". But, Starcub meant to say, "this raises another question."

    Uggg, I looked at your link.

    It said:
    A simple example would be "I think he is unattractive because he is ugly." The adjective "ugly" does not explain why the subject is "unattractive"

    Then it says:
    To beg the question does not mean "to raise the question." (e.g. "It begs the question, why is he so dumb?") This is a common error of usage made by those who mistake the word "question" in the phrase to refer to a literal question.

    Why did they change the example from ugly to dumb? Wouldn't the original example beg the question, "Why is he so ugly?"

    I must be fucking dumb, because I didn't understand shit from your link.

    For instance, what's the difference between these invectives?

    A twat - since the inclusion of cunt, twat has been deprecated
    A dick - stubborn, demanding, mean
    An ass - obnoxious and unwanted
    An asshole - similar to dick, but less flattering
    An assface - face looks like an ass
    A shithead - entire head is worth as much as shit
    A shitface - similar to assface, but worse
    A dumbass - not intelligent
    A smartass - obnoxious
    A wiseass - similar to smartass, but with more old-timey feel, deprecated
    A twatface - deprecated, you might get laughed at if you use this term
    A shit-for-brains - unintelligent
    A retard - developmental disability
    A fucktard - like retard, but worse
    A dumbfuck - unintelligent with subtle hints of sexual inadequacy
    A fuckhead - worthless, except possibly for use as a masturbation tool
    A bitch - 1. female dog 2. rude, overbearing woman
    A fucking bitch - worse than a bitch
    A giant fucking bitch - worse than a fucking bitch. Ex: Susan may be a bitch, but Marth is a giant fucking bitch.
