No not end of story. Who says restaurants aren't appropriate places for cell phones? If most of a eatery's clients use cells do you think its wise to tell them to take their business elsewhere?
Up above you made some snide comment about how we got along before they arrived.
Thats all well and good but they're here NOW and society has changed. It has changed to adapt to a life WITH cell phones and removing them from our daily lives would be a huge luddite step backwards, a step we don't want to take.
So that means if someone is annoying you nearby on their cell phone in a theatre or restaurant then you are just going to have to DEAL.
You are a moron. An utter utter moron if you think for one minute anyone is going to even TRY to believe that Windows in any way shape or form (other than loaded onto a computer that is then turned OFF and disconnected from the internet) is more secure than a properly secured Linux system.
I don't have to or want to pay for sex. Nuff said on that.
I'm not disputing that men find women VISUALLY attractive. But some older women can be visually attractive as well, while lacking the annoying immature personalities that plague younger women. And not every older woman is jealous of younger women. Not the secure ones who are sure of their own beauty. Stereotypes and assumptions are bad.
There are TONS of sights out there, amatuer and professional with women well over 30, 40 and 50. Have you completely missed the MILF phenomenon? Mothers I'd Like to Fuck? What about the amaturer wife websites? The Mature websites for older ladies? Wetlands.com is full of them. Jesus.
What are you stuck in some immature mind loop that cannot see any woman over 30 as attractive? Are you going to be hunting for 25yr and younger girls for the rest of your life? How sad if so.
Competition is bad when its no longer actually competition. GNOME and KDE are the same damn thing. So are vi and emacs. They all do what they're supposed to do negating the need for anymore competition between the two and wasting energy that could have been expended on something more worthwhile.
I know people like to gloss over this stuff but it needs to be restated.
Gates and Jobs were both programmers in their own right. Just because they didn't STICK with the hardcore tech side doesn't mean they were never there to begin with.
Gates coded early versions of Basic software/DOS and Jobs coded Atari games and helped manufacture the first Apple's.
I feel what you are saying and I agree with you in spirit. But no matter how much we WANT the world to progress beyond its current state I am afraid that will never happen unless fundamental human physiology changes.
You brought up insects. Insects are animals. Animals clearly aren't capable of self-determination or concious thought. Humans are to an extent. The problem is some are and some aren't. We all know people who seem to be no better than mere animals. They lead their lives as if someone long ago wrote out a script they are merely acting out. They go to work, come home, watch TV, go to bed and repeat for 70 years until death. When you try to tell them the ways in which they can better themselves they lack the self-confidence or initiative to even begin. Take for instance unionized blue collar workers. Have you seen a more souless, mentally lazy creature?
Or what about folks who allow their homes to get so dirty the state government has to condemn the dwelling? Folks who believe in a literal translation of the Bible as a guide to living one's life. Folks who distrust the working of OTHER people's minds, minds that are motivated to learn more and enhance the quality of life for everyone, because the science sounds too "scary"?
The truth is most human beings are barely better than a common stray dog in terms of thinking. The numbers of truly self aware individuals in this world are few and far between and as long as the ratio remains this way then greed and vanity will continue to rule the day.
While we're at it why not order up world peace, and end to global hunger, a cure for all infectious diseases and an end to boybands.
The reason why I reacted the way I did to your original comment is because its not even close to resembling something down to earth and practical. Barring wide-scale re-engineering of our DNA human beings are not going to suddenly wake up one day and re-arrainge our society and economy to service the soul instead of our greed and vanity.
Do you understand or even care that allowing your population to work only 9 months a year is financially irresponsible and dangerous? Do you think welfare money grows on trees? You are aware that the UK has a lower unemployment rate than the rest of continental Europe (especially Germany and France) and that such silly welfare laws actually HURT your economy? If so few people are working and for such a short time you lower the amount of income that can be taxed. The less that is taken in from taxes means you cannot support as many people on the dole as you currently can. Its a recipe for disaster. But some folks just can't see beyond all the vacation time they have right now.
Hi, I'm a black guy and I noticed you said the Hutterites have huge asses. Do you happen to know the exact address of the colony with the most women? Thanks!
Phil Knight isn't doing anything wrong. Nothing Nike makes is something you need to live. You can get $15 sneakers from Payless shoes. Nike shoes are LUXURY items, its just almost no one can remember that anymore.

Why the hell would you want to jam a cell signal inside a bank?
Except for you deciding who can and who can't communicate with others right? Unless that isn't defined as rude....

Why is it hospital equipment seems to be even more vulnerable to cell phone signals than airplanes?
I mean has anyone ever read of a documented case where hospital equipment was disrupted by a signal from a cell phone?

I'm actually 23 and I have enjoyed women 20 to 30 years older than me since I was 15.

Yeah if one is gay they can hope for that.
Yes alcohol is legal. But have you ever wondered why there aren't any liquor stores in wealthy neighborhoods?
Consult the users of those channels. I've railed many times against the drug using lifestyle.
Have you ever had to live in a neighborhood destroyed by both the drug pushers and the addicted users?
I thought it was pretty clear to anyone with a brain that drugs ARE scary and bad.
Perhaps you have a favorite kind of drug which you do not consider to be all that bad? Like weed or meth perhaps?

What crackhead company is going to pay anyone for being a human being? You have to have something to offer.
What are you on crack? You think a company, any company even Microsoft should spend its cash reserves just to put washed up techies back to work?

There is no difference between watching a director's interpretation of someone's story and reading an author's description of it. None.
It really takes a sophisticated type of couple to endure in an open relationship.

Oh well then thats just the natural evolution of languages. Happens where-ever there's two different cultures and massive immigration.
