Fucking moron. It's the pussification of america that's RESPONSIBLE for George Bush getting into office. Men can't be men any more, and women, many of whom WANT a strong man around (like daddy used to be when they were little), will vote for a complete dickhead because that's what they psychologically identify with. Strong men are what make strong communities, and make people feel safe. So men need to be involved in their communities (instead of sitting on their asses indoors watching tv/playing video games/writing blogs) and they need to be ALLOWED to be men.
And BTW, the pussification isn't just a MEN problem. Men have turned into women, and women have turned into children. Children have turned into tyrants, because they no longer have any idea what a proper adult behaves like, do to this rampant pussification. Women in this country are titanic cowards now, terrified of taking any initiative or standing up for themselves with others, relying instead on backstabbing and conniving. Laws written to correct genuine harrassment in the workplace are now being used by cowards to commit harrassment, which I can testify is not fun. I was told by my boss at the time I'd be fired if any more 'inappropriate comments' were made or _even reported_.
Before making blanket declarations, read the third item here: http://www.youaredumb.net/node/691
to speed things up here's the text: >> For people confused by the last line of yesterday's column, the short version is, three dipshit teens in rural Wisconsin got caught digging up a recently-buried corpse so that they could have sex with it. They'd bought condoms and everything, because embalming fluid, I presume, has nasty side effects on your pubescent crank. If you have an erection that lasts INTO THE AFTERLIFE, consult your doctor.
The incident raises all sorts of fascinating questions about the teens in question - did one of them come up with the idea? If so, what rhetorical powers must he posess to have talked his other two friends into it? What kind of forethought sends you to Wal-Mart for rubbers beforehand, without also providing the realization that digging up a body is a long, exhausting process?
But that's all trumped by the revelation that a judge dismissed the attempted sexual assault charges against them, because Wisconsin has no laws about necrophilia. Like the many sordid times in the past we've learned too late about states lacking laws on bestiality, it seems. I'm not sure if it's simple oversight, or a tricky legal boundary - a corpse is really neither a person nor property, after all.
Perhaps this case will cause the Wisconsin legislature to reconsider. But until then, Wisconsin is the place to be if you're into le rigor petit mortis. For the rest of us, however, given both this and the last time Wisconsin's sexual deviancies found their way into this column, I would suggest that whatever you do, DON'T ORDER THE VEAL.
"They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the internet. And again, the internet is not something you just dump something on. It's not a truck. It's a series of tubes. And if you don't understand those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and its going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material."

Yeah, one thing I think Slashdot's features lack is the ability to edit one's own posts. I mean hell, even youaredumb.net 's forums have the ability to delete or edit posts.
Yup. This is a case of the lawyer not being the problem. The lawyer didn't win, he just got paid for doing his job, which I certainly wouldn't work at MY job for nothing.
Bock threw an online troll shit-fit, which was free to her. Oh, but when reality knocks, "I'm too poor to defend myself!" Well, the plaintiff didn't get a chance to defend herself from your libelous posts. Notice the trolls are all together on this one. We should extreminate their tribe.
RTFA; she posted on community websites where the plaintiff contacts her customers. This isn't 'random' places on the internet, it's like she bought a billboard outside a store saying the store is a ripoff joint because she bought what she wanted but didn't like it when she got it home.
What kind of idiots think you should be able to go out and fuck up someone else's life with your stupid mouth? I RTFA, and the defendant was fighting with her ex about the "behavioral problems" of their boys, and the ex had put them in a boarding school in Costa Rica. The Florida woman put her in touch with someone who got her kids back. What's to bitch about? Psycho parents are a good cause for 'behavioral problems'. In TFA the defendant claimed "no one got to hear my side". Bull fucking shit. You STARTED it by posting your side all over websites this woman uses to do her job, you moron.
Let's say I help a neighbor out in some sense or other, but they freak out and start putting up posters that I'm a child molester on all the phone poles in the neighborhood. Is that fine with you idiots? Your right to free speech ends where it wrongly harms others.
No one's going to call it anything but 'the controller' unless they're maybe talking to a clerk at Best Buy or somewhere. Having these bullshit product names is just dickhead marketing executive justifying their leeching off the corporate teat. "Dual Shock" etc etc. What crap. Hand me the controller for my PS2, I'm off. duh.
Whoa! Slew of rapid posts. Yeah, that watch is pretty fugly. At least it's not STugly (Strom Thurmond Ugly). But $249 for something that looks like a $9 casio? And only analog, no other features? Thanks for posting up there!
It's a great idea, obviously, but watches are also an important marker of self-identity for the buyer; I'd really want to see a few pictures of these in TFA.
Yeah, and if someone invented a star trek replicator, but it had to be seeded with something to scan, the candy industry would freak out against them because people could copy their candy bars instead of buying them. But eventually, we all know what would happen.
Yeah, a shitload of people have bought songs from itunes. A much much bigger shitload of people are downloading songs and movies for FREE from various sources. These dickheads need to realize the much much bigger shitload of people are wise to their bullshit, and won't buy it.
So your comment was wrong about who the target is. The people who are already paying aren't the target group, we are. And we're not buying their shit. And only an idiot would believe their bullshit argument. "Gee, these people aren't buying our products. That money must be sitting in cookie jars and mattresses all over the country; no one's spending it on gas, rent, the ever-increasing copays and other medical expenses etc etc."
Jeez, you guys! Yes, there ARE still some people who have cassettes. I'm not really all that old, and I still have a box of cassettes; I never play 'em much, but they have music on them I recorded in the 80s that simply doesn't exist anywhere else. And for people who still record their CDs onto tapes this is a reasonable solution.
Hey idiots! No one says legalizing drugs will cause the users to stop using. It's about them not having to commit crimes to get the stuff. Dumbfucks. I can't believe how stupid people are these days. If prohibition worked, it never would have been repealed! Don't you get it?! No, alcoholics didn't quit drinking after Repeal, but gangsters in Chicago quit firing machine guns in the streets. Which was, I believe, the whole damn point. Making the streets safe to play in.
Hear hear! All of you blowhards spouting off about "shoot 'em, who needs crack heads anyways?" should go rent the DVD of City of God. It's about these exact same problems in Brazil, in the worst cocaine-fueled gun-filled neighborhoods. But don't bother watching the movie (well, okay, it's a good movie, but it's just entertainment). Instead, watch the documentary under the extras menu. I know, I know, all those subtitles are just such a burden, pause it and you can keep up.
They interview and tell the stories of a street cop, various kids/drug dealers (of which there are an infinite amount), and the chief of police for the city. He plainly states that after his years of watching this problem from both the street side and the political side, the whole reason drugs are illegal is to keep the poor under control. No other reason at all.
"Why bother fixing social ills when those of us who truly count can just sit in gated communities playing video games and watching piped-in cable tv about how horrible it is outside their little beige world? Poverty? Drugs? Bad public schools? Fuck that, not with my taxes; I need lower taxes so I can buy gas for my 6000 pound SUV!"
Well, obviously in the Hobbit the part of Bard would have to be played by Chuck Norris, only instead of shooting the dwarven arrow into a tiny hold in Smaug's armor, he can super jump, round-house kick Smaug until there's a nice big hole, then put his fist through it, holding the arrow. Then slam dunk Smaug into Long Lake.
Sauron tried to recruit Chuck Norris into his service, but there wasn't enough mithril in Middle Earth to make it worth it to him.
Well, if you add up the third and second ages, which have very definite dates, and then the unknown long ages of the First Age, you might get around 21,000 years. That still puts him 10,000 years older than Galadriel.
yes, Gandalf received the ring from Cirdan when he arrived in Middle Earth. However, it doesn't make him immune to Balrog fire. He tells Aragorn and Gimli "Long time we fell, and his flames were around me, and I was burned." when talking about the long fall from the bridge of Khazad-dum.
The various villains of LotR and Silmarillion are very great in power, but they do weird stuff to take over the world: they spread their power out into many minions. In the short term, this is an overall increase, but when/if those minions get the chop, the overall power level is decreased. Both Morgoth and Sauron were able to assume whatever form pleased them at first, but when they met with physical death they lost that ability and could only manifest as dark Lords, tall and terrible. Sauron lost his second body when Dol Guldur was thrown down by the White Council, led by Galadriel bearing the elven ring while Saruman still counceled waiting. His spirit fled to the Barad-Dur, which his servants had been long preparing, and made himself another body there, the one with the single eye. The film (along with many other mistakes it made) showed Sauron as a big Will O' the Wisp, but the books clearly say Sauron had a great body that burned with a terrible heat. Gollum even says he's missing a finger on one hand.... Hey, I just discovered a continuity error in the books! Gollum says Sauron is missing a finger, but he wasn't captured by Sauron until after Dol Guldur was thrown down. I rule! Whoohoo! Nergasm!
Gandalf (as he is called in some places, Mithrandir by the elves) was Olorin of old in the West that has been forgotten. He is mentioned once in the Silmarillion and is a maia. So were all the curunir. That's also how he could be recorporated after dying in battle with the balrog. Anyway, as a maia, he was alive prior to the creation of Ea and took part in the music of the Ainur (see Valaquenta, a preface to the Silmarillion). He saw the light of the Two Trees, and would have taken part on the assault of the Valar on Morgoth at the end of the First Age. Older than measured time, since he was alive prior to the coming of the moon and the sun.
