Out of curiosity, what made you run third party rather than trying to fix things from within? There are obstacles either way of course, was there something that made you convinced whichever party you were closer to ideologically was irreparably damaged?
Does anyone pick the president by the VP they choose? Do they think, "I like the other guy more for president, but I'm voting for this guy because he will be a better VP"?
LOL, no. These debates aren't for swaying people's opinions. The people already have their horse picked out going into the debate. They just want to see "their guy" bash the other guy so they can be cocky and post taunts on Facebook at what a moron the other guy and all his supporters are.
The requisite 15 minutes of Hate has now been extended out into an hour or two, minus commercial breaks of course. Politics these days more and more resembles mainstream wrestling; some of the minor details like words spoken in a certain moment may be spontaneous, but the whole of it is theater, basically a live TV performance. Any verbal gaffes or logical inconsistencies occurring in the heat of the moment due to the real ignorance and stupidity lurking and carefully concealed beneath his fake smile and plastic demeanor, can easily be explained away by an army of aides and speechwriters as "misspoke" or "taken out of context" or "whatever", and twisted and turned and spun this way and that for as long as it takes until the public simply intellectually gives up, or becomes bored/confused and moves on to more important things like Lohan's fight with her mom.
The Nazis would have been exceptionally proud of what we've become.
Oh say a local policeman comes and bangs on your door and says you must let him in because he is in hot pursuit of a murderer who is a danger to the public, and then you let him in and he proceeds to arrest your 18 year old house guest for an unrelated issue, should that house guest sue you?
Just wait til the short sale rules change in November, and people can short sell their homes for near any reason at all. Things are going to get much, much worse before they get better.
So because "the regulations say so", that automatically means every house in your country has a perfectly done earth ground, into the proper ground, no exceptions? Even in houses which have been tampered with, with amateur wiring jobs and wear and tear on components? A proper ground in a particular instance is determined by a multimeter and the laws of physics, not regulations.
Why stoop to the level of working in a salt mine, when you can carry out your mad electronic experiments from the safety and comfort of your very own abandoned missile silo? (Note: some PCB or asbestos cleanup may be required....on-site groundwater may be unsafe for consumption....etc. (In Soviet Russia, groundwater consumes you.) But hey...sure beats a damn salt mine any day of the week! Woe betide the scientist who accidently leaves the Tesla coil cooling pump on overnight, when a rubber hose bursts and floods the cavern. Imagine waking up to that! Evil fortress FAIL)
I would gladly, every single second of my life, choose to trade in the 0.001% of free speech that we're actually talking about here, in return for a decent, civilised, intelligent society to live in.
Which will never happen, of course, because it's impossible. So pull your head out of your ass and face reality. The government does not need to be in the business of regulating speech.
Interaction with other humans is greatly underrated by intolerant nerds who think we should replace it with Google searches. There's absolutely no reason why you should first look for things in Google instead of asking them in a forum, other than your personal opinion that it's the right thing to do.
How about because it's a waste of everyone's fucking time? I'm sorry that your time is so useless that you feel replying to a post of some dumbass asking the defintion of NPC is a good use of it.
Yeah, my granddad did that for me once when I got stung by a yellowjacket. Gave me a whole wad of tobacco to put on it, actually. It actually worked; killed the sting in no time.
You're telling me that politicians are the reason you can't just start an airplane manufacturing business overnight?
Yes. I could build and manufacture airplanes just like Wilbur and Orville Wright did, in their garage, out of wood and screws. I could build a car this way, too. But can you imagine the red tape in trying to get this business approved and licensed and to actually sell the product on an "open" market?
What exactly do you do with a schoolbus driver that is high?
Well, I don't know. Are they impaired? Is a guy who gut high once and is clearly impaired, or an every-day-all-day smoker whose tolerance is up and isn't really impaired at all?
What if it's a nicotine or caffeine junkie needing a fix, or who just got his fix? OMG what shall we do about that?! I mean come the fuck on. Stop being so goddamn ignorant. Cannabis is harmless and beneficial. Smoke a joint, or better yet a hundred or a thousand joints, and see for yourself.
I'd rather see twice the violence and zero property theft. I'd love for some stupid mother fucker to get violent with me and give me a good excuse to end him. Nothing pisses me off more though than having shit stolen.
If you cause a violent confrontation, there is real risk someone gets seriously hurt or killed. They could certainly be injured in a manner that costs society far more than $2.8 million in medical treatment costs over the life of the victim.
Especially if it was me being robbed, because I'm not handing over my fucking wallet to some lowlife thug. He'd better be willing to die for it, because I sure am.
If you take away the cinemas, you lose the profits from the over priced food.
....which goes to the cinemas, not the production company. In other words you cut out the middle man and nobody loses, except the middle man.
If you lower the price of your product, you lower the perceived value If your customers are accustomed to a particular price point, selling below that point will lose you more profit than you'll recover by increased sales.
This makes absolutely totally no sense when applied to movies. You think somebody is going to refuse to see the latest action packed drama with big stars because the price is too low? LOL.
But why would they want to sell you a movie for $2 that you can invite the whole neighbourhood over to watch as many times as you like when they currently charge $13 per person for a one-time viewing and then 6 months later charge you $20 for the DRM protected dvd/bluray full of advertisements?
Because it sure beats nothing i.e. $0--which actually is in fact what these assholes getting from me right now. Piracy FTMFW

LOL!
Wait.......you're serious?
The standard of living is higher here.
You sure about that?
Come on mods

Use your superior knowledge of the market to Invent a better algorithm.
Save this comment. In 10 years you'll have a laugh about how laughably wrong you are.

Yes. For stupidity.

Well the answers given are useful to people, so how about not being a judgmental smartass?

How would he know? Obviously he possesses little real knowledge about grounding system, and only chimed in here to be a pedant.

No, it's being prosecuted because Great Britain is ruled by fascists.
Yeah, my granddad did that for me once when I got stung by a yellowjacket. Gave me a whole wad of tobacco to put on it, actually. It actually worked; killed the sting in no time.

No, it sounds more like he was using a specific example of one thing in Somalia to successfully refute an argument.

Downloads cost them servers and bandwidth.
How much bandwidth does bittorrent cost?

No, but you can borrow one from the parts store.
Start looking for ways you can, not ways you can't.
