    If you do eat it make sure it is the deactivated (dead) kind from the supermarket or health shop or it will start to grow in you.

    It it does, do I get any super mutant abilities?

    If you take it in the proper manner (suspended in 12 ounces of beer) it gets you drunk.

    YESSIR, because the absolutely only way to design a weather app is to make it look exactly like the OS X dashboard widget from 2005

    You mean, the Konfabulator weather app design which Apple ripped off for OS X in 1995.

    OSX in 1995? Lemme guess, you're one of those HR people demanding 8+ years of Windows 7 experience for current hires?

    Um...the weather widget looks a little familiar, doesn't it?

    How long someone uses a an earlier, similar comment by an AC as 'proof' that you are using sockpuppets and are a paid account?

    yes..there is a typo in the statement from the article..and I just copied and pasted it directly....did not want to change what the site said....

    If there was an 'intelligent designer' then why are the sewer outflows in the middle of the play ground.

    Because for some people sewer outflows ARE a playground, especially when the playground is under the effects of a red tide.

    That's a big question! We currently believe that the circumstances that created life were pretty harsh in some respects and extremely mild in others.

    No, wrong! Everyone knows Gil Gerard went back in time and ejaculated into the primordial ooze. Why do people make things so complicated?

    Yes, but being public domain does not make it truly 'Free', therefore Stallman refuses to use it.

    No, it's more like buying a girl a 4 kt diamond ring then later replacing it with a 3kt diamond if she wants you to clean the dishes and explaining it to her that this is because some other woman down the street only has a 3 kt diamond ring.

    She wanted me to clean dishes. That was not part of the original contract. She unilaterally changed part of it, therefore I'm changing a different part. Pray I don't alter it any further.

    Horrible analogy, -1.

    The only way one of those interpretations is valid is if the reader intentionally misreads the actual text that the OP wrote. Pointing out general characteristics of a large population or population group is not sexist, racist, or anything other than an observation. The observation itself has little or no meaning or intent. It is only what is done with the information or the interpretation that can be sexist, racist, etc.

    It's not that you called two of them gold diggers that's sexist. It's that you said that there's no such thing as a woman who *isn't* a gold digger.

    Can you spot the difference?

    It's not that he said there's no such thing as a woman who *isn't* a gold digger, it's that he said it is difficult to find one who isn't.
