The reason, you see, that it's really "rare" for a woman to get pregnant when she is raped is because rape, by itself, is already relatively rare compared to the frequency with which people voluntarily engage in copulative sex...
"Stop caring about the child, he'll learn who you are when you get back home"? or "Get on the first plane out of Afghanistan. If your commanding officer tries to stop you, shoot him"?
false dilemma fallacy - there are more options than the ones you have listed here.
And that's just one of the scenarios where the question would be a very valid one.
Actually, those were 2, and neither accounts for the fact that a 4-year-old should be supervised by an adult pretty much at all times - an adult who can set up a Skype session for the kid.
Why? My son had a phone at 4. It allowed and still allows him to have far more freedom than many of his peers.
Peers who are also 4.
What freedoms does a person who is just learning to navigate stairs really need? I mean, over the freedoms that the typical 4-year-old would have?
That freedom has allowed him to develop both socially and intellectually at a rate that is far greater than what he could have under the tethered leash of a child who cannot leave his parent's sight.
Funny, I've heard the same thing, almost verbatim, from the hippy parents that feed their kids nothing but granola and dress them in burlap sacks. It's almost as if every parent is under the impression that their method of parenting is superior to all others, despite a complete lack of scientific evidence...
God-damn but I love it when people do this! Nothing like completely destroying your own argument because you're too lazy and/or incompetent to use proper grammar.
All you can do is go by what's in the summary. If he doesn't want to get hammered, put in all the relevant facts.
Maybe they thought the specific reason was none of our damn business, since it's not, and that an 'intellectual' crowd like those here would be able to see beyond the compulsion to pry into every fucking aspect of other people's lives and just give decent advice?
I don't see how their reason for not being around the kid "as often as [they] want to" has any relevance to what kind of cell phone would be appropriate for the child.
DWB?? Driving While Black? That's a very serious condition in many parts of America that tends to outweigh any other characteristic or accomplishment.
Indeed; ironically, being pretty (at least, pretty enough to win a MTUSA competition) probably didn't help her case, but rather made it worse.
Here's an old joke that's still relevant: Q: What do you call a black millionaire heart surgeon who's been pulled over in his Porsche? A: A nigger
Sorry, but as a "white" guy I'm pretty sure I'm not allowed to think those kind of jokes are funny. At least, not publicly (more irony, the tragic kind this time).
So, how many girls did he extort before he made the mistake of targeting somebody with influence? If you are going to cheat, steal, blackmail, etc., you don't do it to the people the police actually protect.
You think Miss Teen USA gets any sort of special treatment by the government? You obviously haven't ever known any; I went to high school with a former winner, and believe me, being Miss Teen USA did not prevent her from being stopped, regularly, for DWB.
That makes sense. Until you are caught, you typically have only your perspective on what you're doing. There's no one else out there telling you that you've made a mistake. A lot of people change their minds about their activities once they realize that other people don't approve.
Ah, bullshit - I stole a pair of JNCO jeans once when I was a pre-teen, and believe me, I didn't need anyone else to tell me that I was in the wrong for doing it.
If "terribly degrading" is your definition of rape, it's a crime far more prevalent than ever before thought.
Nowhere did he say that was his definition of the term; i kan reed was ascribing a particular aspect of rape, and in that is not particularly incorrect.
The peachy printer is a Photolithographic printer. That means it uses a controlled beam of light to cure light sensitive resin into hard objects... The software we wrote as an add on to blender takes the data from that 3D model and translates it into an audio waveform. It then plays the audio file out to the printer through the headphone jack in your computer. This waveform drives a pair of electro magnetic mirrors. The higher the volume, the higher the voltage, the more the mirrors move. The purpose of these mirrors is to reflect and control the path of the laser beam. By using the audio waveform generated from the 3D model data to drive the mirrors, we are able to get the laser beam to draw out the shape of the object.
I managed to get almost $4,000 knocked off the price of a "new" car by pointing out that it already had 800 miles on it.
Just sayin', it's worth at least trying to work the dealer over. After all, as I told the guys at the VW dealership, 'If you're not willing to give me the deal I want on the car I want, I can always go give my money to someone else.'
Next time you look at buying a car from a dealer, make sure to point out how the value drops by 1/3 the second you sign paperwork. They fucking hate that:)
I'm sure they do hate that. However, if they had two brain cells to rub together,
Well, these are car salesmen we're talking about...

Oblig
Saudi Cleric is about the same thing as a tea party member. Their logic ability is about exactly the same.
Obvious troll is obvious; here's a novel idea - maybe try judging individuals based on their own actions, and not some arbitrary label.
So, what is your recommendation?
"Stop caring about the child, he'll learn who you are when you get back home"?
or
"Get on the first plane out of Afghanistan. If your commanding officer tries to stop you, shoot him"?

Excuse me, but there are some federal agents here - they'd like to have a few words with you regarding the disappearance of your sense of humor.

Which came first: kids, or parental egotism?
Sounds more like your an idiot to me.
God-damn but I love it when people do this! Nothing like completely destroying your own argument because you're too lazy and/or incompetent to use proper grammar.
(c) understand that having a kid is not worth the hassle, and (d) take action in avoiding procreation. It's green and helps the earth, to boot.
I'm assuming that you are glad that your parents didn't feel the same way instead of having you?
Sometimes, but then I turn on the news.
This is, of course, all assuming AC above is actually the submitter, and not some troll messing with you.
I assume you're from California, considering it's marked absence from your list...

Indeed; I fear that cognitive dissonance has infected the herd mind, and is quickly becoming pandemic.
The worst part is, I'm not sure there's anything any of us can do to stop it.

Man, I sure am glad I had my lunch before reading this thread...
Yea, I could (actually I probably couldn't, since I'm not a coder), but why reinvent the wheel? GhostCommander has a fine picture-view built in.
Lichens FTW; those hardy little fuckers can grow any-damn-where.
The picture viewer that comes with GhostCommander also a good choice.
So... kinda like this?
Fair enough.

But Apple can still sue companies over the Android photo gallery:
Please do! Maybe then, they'll replace the aforementioned crash-and-bug-laden POS with something, I dunno, functional.
