I'm not stalking her, I love her and I want the whole world to know it! Rachel loves me too, she's just playing hard to get, she told me once. I'll follow her until the ends of the earth until she loves me.
Mot ironic statement I've heard in a long time... Surely you wish to believe "the rest of us live a fact-based life," this is an unprovable statement based completely on faith and your intuition.
This is a matter of making tests fair by challenging what many assume to be common knowledge and correcting this accordingly. It has long been known that white kids outperform black kids on IQ tests. Actually I guess it's not that well known since it's a very unpopular fact... But one of the reasons offered for this is that the base knowledge that the testers assume of the test takers doesn't match. The examples of the home computer and swimming pool are perfect examples of this, can they give an unfair advantage to kids that do know about these things. Similarly, asking a question such as "Sam's birthday is Oct 8, Henry's birthday is October 7, Jeff's birthday is June 9, which birthday is closest to Jeff's" could produce a major "WTF?" for a child who has no grasp on the concept of birthdays, even if they are quite good at math. I'm all for producing an equal testing environment, and it's not like we're running out of ways to ask questions.
"But the more important reason to preserve the current rules is a spiritual one. There is something to be said for not being transfixed by an electronic gizmo."
I've snuck everything from pepper spray (accidentally), to a live deadly scorpion (on purpose) onto a plane, even with all this new security. All the scanners just make it inconvenient to conceal stuff, not impossible, or even that difficult really. Now what is effective are the interviews by personnel trained to detect unusual behavior, I'd feel much safer if we had more of those and fewer see you naked machines.
Ugg why do people talk out of their asses like this?
There were plenty of uses for wheels. There was a ton of trade and wars between various city states that covered large distances. We have documents of Egyptians using wheelless chariots, sleds basically, thinking they were all badass. And there were no muddy forests in the ancient Mesopotamia or Egypt, wtf are you talking about?

I like your magic statistics where atheists also include numerous categories which are explicitly not atheist.

Here's the stupid reason:

This whole "eye of the needle" being some kind of gate is bologna people have made up to circumvent the sharpness of the saying.
sure, but how many bombs has he dropped?
just watching the clips practically made me suicidal from boredom
So the whole transfer thing is kind of like being beamed somewhere in star trek...
are you really being transferred, or just disintegrated and rebuilt someplace else? does the second James Brown mp3 have the same soul?
Perhaps it just had a bland personality?
Hmm, someone should search Puff Daddy's residence for the missing moon rocks then
the real success will be when they can clone enough for our growing demand for obnoxious furry boots
