In this case, "Who's your daddy?" does not in fact indicate any kind of father-daughter relationship. It's used to elicit an admission of submission, "You're my daddy" which simply means "You are dominating me (and I like it)" The 'daddy' is the top, the dominant person, the one controlling the experience.
As self-appointed resident expert in kinky sex, maybe you can explain this to me: how exactly does this not have extremely creepy overtones of incest?
It does. That's part of the kink. But a small part. I mean, what else are you going to say, "Who's your boss?" "Who's your top?" "Who's your master?" That last one might work, but somehow, it hasn't caught on.
Oh, and isn't it funny how easy it was to get you to admit who you are? You had a reason for posting AC in the first place, but now an account is irrevocably tied to those AC comments, just like I wanted.
Well, I COULD just claim you were a Dave sock puppet, but you're probably not. Just another moronic 'Merka is always right' type. So, now that you've admitted who you are, maybe you could explain what, exactly is wrong with my theory? It isn't anti-scientific like ID, because it can be proved or disproved. I say the US has the motive. Oil trade shifting away from the dollar would decimate the economy. Do you refute that? I say we have the means, everyone knows we have subs configured to do this job. And we had the opportunity. So, care to try to refute any of the actual points instead of engaging in petty, childish name calling and psycho-babble?
This is so fun. As I pointed out, only Dave would know that Dave doesn't post AC, but you claimed to know he doesn't. Furthermore, only Dave would care that someone had figured out he was posting AC. Why don't you post from your real account and prove me wrong? Oh, because you can't. Because you're Dave, who posts AC all the time so he can engage in small minded, bitter retribution against those who would dare question him, without losing his supposed reputation as a cool, rational thinker.
Haha, who but the real Dave would deny his Davehood? You write just like him, and I've seen far to many irate anonymous posts defending him or dissing his 'enemies' in threads he starts. Why is that, Dave?
It sends a clear message to anyone thinking of using the Bourse. "We have tapped ALL lines, not just the ones that were 'incompetently' cut and obviously tapped" and "We WILL take any action necessary to ensure oil is traded in dollars only...This was a clear and public message. Any oil trader can read it loud and clear, and you are being disingenuous when you profess ignorance. Look, I'll be honest, I'm not claiming this is a known fact or anything. You sir, are a nut. What do you think about 911 truthers? I wouldn't put anything past the current administration, but I don't think they planned this. I think it's likely they knew about it ahead of time and did nothing, but not certain.
How am I a nut, exactly? We surely have the means and the opportunity, and I presented a plausible motive. I never claimed it was a certainty. Why are you against this sort of speculation?
Please don't play dumb. You know as well as I do what this does. It sends a clear message to anyone thinking of using the Bourse. "We have tapped ALL lines, not just the ones that were 'incompetently' cut and obviously tapped" and "We WILL take any action necessary to ensure oil is traded in dollars only. Your name goes on the list if you trade at the Bourse." This was a clear and public message. Any oil trader can read it loud and clear, and you are being disingenuous when you profess ignorance. The Iranian Internet did not have to be disrupted in any meaningful way for this message to be sent.
Iran professes not to believe this because they don't want people to believe it. They want people using the Bourse.
Look, I'll be honest, I'm not claiming this is a known fact or anything. I'm saying, it's a more plausible explanation than that 5 regional cables were cut within weeks of each other. If you can find even ONE incident where that many cables were cut that close to each other in that short a time span, I'll retract my supposition. Just ONE SINGLE OTHER TIME that five cables all going to the same place were cut within a month of each other. You say it happens all the time, show us.
The cable cuts weren't meant to disrupt communications completely, they were to spread fear, uncertainty, and doubt among potential non-dollar oil investors. Simple, logical explanation. Now, I ask you all, why might someone in the intelligence business want us to believe that the cable cuts were mere coincidence?
Well, I should know Slashdotters aren't familiar with sexual terms. In this case, "Who's your daddy?" does not in fact indicate any kind of father-daughter relationship. It's used to elicit an admission of submission, "You're my daddy" which simply means "You are dominating me (and I like it)" The 'daddy' is the top, the dominant person, the one controlling the experience. This is often followed by light verbal humiliation, spankings, pretend choking, rough oral sex, things like that. I know you may never get a chance to try these things out in real life, but perhaps this will help explain some of the confusing and frightening images you've seen whilst masturbating to porn.
If Indianaians are using more A/C and more heating, its they who are at fault. We're called Hoosiers you insensitive clod! My wife is from Indiana, and even she can't explain why. Well, she has but I don't believe her. "Who's yer daddy?" Really? I think she just likes it when I say that.
Look, the security vulnerability just wants us off its lawn. Unless any of us happens to play bridge, or enjoy long rambling stories. And maybe some hot cocoa?
Obviously sanitation, that goes without saying. But aside from queuing behavior, sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what has western civilization ever done for us?
they can get some spotlight time to announce the world that the entire scandal is nothing more than a smear campaign targeting an innocent, upright citizen.
As if anyone would believe them! (For the bemefit of any American readers, Florence is in Italy). Okay, but what's Florence doing there? Is she visiting Firenze?
Why Cleveland? Why not Quagmire (Cleveland's wife agrees) or any of the other more interesting characters? When I hear Cleveland, I just want to go to sleep until I hear a "Diggity". I agree, almost anyone but Cleveland would be more interesting. Just as long as it's not Herbert.
I understand all that, but why wasn't anything like your analysis included in the article? Isn't that more important or at least more relevant to the headline of the damn blog entry than the fact that the Vaio now comes in alligator skin?
That's the plan, man. As soon as a country starts getting wealthy and the workers aren't so desperate, take all the money and invest it in the next poverty stricken region. Wait until the first country gets poor and desperate again, then move back in. As long as money and goods are free to move between countries, but people are not, that's what we'll have.
No wonder their economy is booming when they can make a killing of counterfeit hardware and bogus harry potter books! "Hairy Pooter and the Sorcerer's Bone" is not actually a counterfeit Harry Potter book, it is something quite different.
Seriously, did anyone read the whole thing? About two paragraphs are devoted to the whole 'race to the bottom' thing without explaining exactly why Sony thinks this a problem. The rest of the entry just goes on and on about all the cool things Sony sells and how many colors and textures the Vaio comes in.
Are you sure about that? because I'm pretty sure that energy does enter into the equation. You know, E=MC2? Matter is energy, and vice versa, and gravity acts on both the same because they are the same. I could be wrong though.
Well, that's not the problem. Because Mr. Pareto clearly does not say that. Poisoning the kids makes them worse off, so that's not a Pareto improvement. The problem is, it's also not a Pareto improvement to take Mr. CEOs yacht and use the proceeds to feed the kids. According to Pareto, if the kids are starving, it's not a good thing that anyone else should have to go without a yacht, or some coke and hookers, or whatever, in order for the kids to live. The Pareto efficiency concept is of no use in addressing the inherent imbalances and downright unfairness of our current resource allocation scheme.
Of course the first generation of clean energy infrastructure will have to be built using dirty energy. But then you use the energy from those sources to build the next generation. Like bootstrapping a compiler on a new system. You have to compile it with the old compiler before you can compile it with itself.
While all very good points, how does they relate to Pareto efficiency? I thought a Pareto improvement was when you could reallocate things so at least one person was better off without anyone else being worse off. And Pareto optimality is when you can't make any more Pareto improvements. Maybe you're saying companies continue to make their customers better off only until that would mean they make themselves worse off?

Oh, and I just thought I'd point out the irony here:
"Just like an ID'er, assume you know something is true when it isn't."
"Dave is many things, but he doesn't post AC to support himself."
How would anyone but Dave know that? Damn, you aren't very smart, are you Dave? How did you ever get into spook school?
Haha, who but the real Dave would deny his Davehood? You write just like him, and I've seen far to many irate anonymous posts defending him or dissing his 'enemies' in threads he starts. Why is that, Dave?
How am I bashing the US, Dave?
