That's funny. My employer paid an independent company to check my background. I don't recall any mention whatsoever of social networking in my three interviews. Although I was asked technical questions that would pertain to my job description. I believe the most personal question I was asked was what are my hobbies.
I have a higher then median salary then my peers from school. Yes, this is an anecdote, take it for what its worth. Either way, my lack of facebook did not hamper me in the least.
Good, anyone who would make facebook a prerequisite for friendship doesn't sound like a very good friend. If calling/texting me on that fancy little phone in your pocket is too difficult then I am not interested in hearing from you.
I see you have been paying attention in straw man creation.

In case this was a reading comprehension fail, then you will notice that the parent was saying the state of North Carolina has become like a slutty girl. This displays an analogy and a personification, so elementary readers may not fully comprehend the post. In no way does the parent compare anyone in particular with a slutty girl.
No, people shouldn't be allowed to have many, many orders of magnitude more then the average person.
When the CEO makes 200 million and the employees make minimum wage, then something is wrong. When someone can watch people who live on the streets suffer from menatl and physical ailments and they feel nothing, then something is wrong. When someone makes more money the the GDP for some small countries, then something is very very wrong. Then when you grant personhood to a corp, something is so wrong its not even comical anymore.
Just having more does not make wealth inequality except in the strictest of definitions. Its when you have more money then a very large swath of the population put together that you get wealth inequality.
May 23, 2006 -- People who smoke marijuana do not appear to be at increased risk for developing lung cancer, new research suggests. While a clear increase in cancer risk was seen among cigarette smokers in the study, no such association was seen for regular cannabis users. Even very heavy, long-term marijuana users who had smoked more than 22,000 joints over a lifetime seemed to have no greater risk than infrequent marijuana users or nonusers. The findings surprised the study’s researchers, who expected to see an increase in cancer among people who smoked marijuana regularly in their youth.
See what happens when you don't look up the stuff you hear? You look silly.
I'm not a Sony fan, but didn't the PS3 come stock with a web browser? I always assumed the 360 did as well. Really MS? It took you this long to put a browser on it?
No, you loan your car to someone. Therefore you are responsible. If someone steals your car and crashes into a bus full of nuns, you aren't.
You may be able to make a case that if the person billed for the IP address would be responsible for guests, but if the kid next door is "stealing" internet from you then you shouldn't be.
Then come back and apologize for making shit up. But since I know you wont here's a snippet. A quote from a Supreme Court Justice.
Justice Brennan also observed that "At least since United States v. Wade, 388 U. S. 218 (1967), the Court has recognized the inherently suspect qualities of eyewitness identification evidence, and described the evidence as "notoriously unreliable"
Yes, lets let the man who killed a 17 year old whose worse crime ever is possession of pot walk.
I mean Zimmerman has to have his nose clean right? Besides the fact he has been charged on two occasions of resisting arrest, and domestic violence. He must be allowed to walk free.
I may be wrong but from what I understand, they even gave him his gun back.
A man shot a 17 year old. The man weighed more then the 17 y/o by what 100 lbs? The man had a gun and history of violence, The 17 y/o had candy.
HOW THE HELL DO YOU DO THE MENTAL GYMNASTICS TO DETERMINE HE SHOULD WALK FREE WITHOUT FACING A JUDGE? I don't want the guy strung up. I just want to make sure he faces a judge and jury for these actions.
No, you are wrong. It is Germanic. If you need something better then Wikipedia feel free to follow wiki's sources as these articles seem to be well sourced.
The most widely spoken Germanic languages are English and German, with approximately 300–400 million
English is a West Germanic language that originated from the Anglo-Frisian and Old Saxon dialects brought to Britain by Germanic settlers from various parts of what is now northwest Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands.[28] Up to that point, in Roman Britain the native population is assumed to have spoken the Celtic language Brythonic alongside the acrolectal influence of Latin, from the 400-year Roman occupation.[29]
Lexical similarity: 60% with German, 27% with French, 24% with Russian.
My school didn't even go that for technologically. Roll was called, teacher checked the correct box. Slip was filled out and in between classes that teacher would deliver the results to the office to be dealt with.
I was never saying the voters aren't idiots. But when was the last time you saw a successful national candidate that was not backed by big business. ALL of them are, and it leaves no one who represents ME, not the big business.

Just because a lawyer had an analogy fail, doesn't mean you get to parrot it and not get mocked for it.
No, you loan your car to someone. Therefore you are responsible. If someone steals your car and crashes into a bus full of nuns, you aren't.

Its an analogy fail. Get over yourself.
Yep, they were the muscle. They should have known better.
This is true.
visual identification is pretty strong evidence.

I don't want the guy strung up. I just want to make sure he faces a judge and jury for these actions.
If someone shoots an unarmed person, until they have been cleared by a court of law, they should be behind bars.
Is that difficult to understand?
Yep, totally credible... not.
I agree, he shouldn't be facing the court of public opinion. He should be facing the court of law. It certainly doesn't look like that is happening.
Made me think of this.

How do you say *Woosh* in German.
Anyways I thought English was considered Germanic, and we do not use "en" for plurals. Perhaps you should save the pedantry for when you are correct.
You have obviously not squeezed the Charmin.
