    Agreed. I've even had my mom propose giving me cash for a prostitute, to curb my weed "habit" (she sees it as such), and I told her - if I thought that was gonna help me, don't you think I would have set it up on my own? I'm an incurable romantic - seems incompatible with beinga horny rabbit - until you realize that behind all that cynism and cold logic - I've got enough love (read oxytocin craving) for 10 normal people. That's why I turned to drugs - not problematic when a modicum of control exists, yet the reliability gives me much more emotional freedom. I always know I have something to fall back on, that perfectly understands me, doesn't judge me, and sees my problems impartially - that being another version of myself - the one that shows up after the appropriate amount of THC has been sacrificed at the oltar of the roling paper XD. Good to know I'm not alone, but how did you cope until losing your virginity at 24 (if I understood correctly)?

    A good dust filter/dehumidifier for the air should make pulling out the broom a once a year phenomenon. Solar electricity? Pointless, use vacum thermo collectors, and route the heat to a thermoacoustic couple - a thermopump powered by heat differtial - you can't get more efficient than that.

    Not to mnetion that increased sexual pressure tends ot bend the mind. Sexual maturation is a bitch (no pun intended), I was horny like a rabbit on Viagra when I was 9, now I'm 16, I've lost my virginty 2 months ago. Drop in the ocean, I'd screw every female over 12 and under 50 if I liked her/could, and all I got was... Unimpressive, to say the least. Not that it's normal for a 9 y.o. to be sexually active (I think), but in my case, I was wired up a bit to early, and that pulled some tricks on me (you wouldn't believe the kinds of porn I'm into), and I'm cursed being a nerd and stoner, not exactly stud material... I think the DSM ought to include premature sexual development as a illness, because it ain't no fun unless you started at 12, and didn't stop.

  11. Re:Charge for support on National Park Service Says Tech Is Enabling Stupidity · · Score: 1

    One in a thousand "needs" rescue, anually, once (conservative) x 3 cents x 1000 people = $30
    If your rescue services run for less than $10/hr - good for you, but most don't, and nobody, ever, should be subject to paying for others' systematic stupidities, even a cent. This isn't using the system, it's abuse. And don't even dare pull the "for the children" argument, it's making me sick to even hear it any more. Not that I hate kids per se, but they aren't a valid metalogical modifier (meta - beyond). If someone is stupid enough to get himself killed with a lawnmower, should we ban lawnmowers, or have special lawnmower rescue teams? Hell no, stupidity has it's consequences, nobody deserves to die, but from a evolutionary and economical standpoint, there is a point of negative returns (in total), and it would be simply unwise to throw good money after bad desitions. Please excuse any incorrect spelling.

    You're a riot at parties, I bet. How the hell would you dare to leave a friend with psychological issues, in a withdraw syndrome, experincing night terrors, alone, and without support of any kind? Even a freaking phonecall? If I were in your place, I wouldn't give a fuck if he called every night, I'd be there for him, because I myself have experienced what meds can do to you, and mostly because that is what friends are for.
