"...a heterosexual union was the best chance for a stable environment to reproduce and raise up children who would yield future positive contributions to that state..."
Well, it's the best bet for the reproduction part, but the rest is a crapshoot.
Exactly. I couldn't watch the new Star Trek due to all the artificially inserted lens flares. And after I pointed them out to my roommate, they insisted we shut off the movie. It's like the first time someone points out blocky compression artifacts in dark colors to you on your new big screen pumping out "HD" cable. It's all you can see after that.
Really? It's the lens flares that made it bad for you? Not the plot? Not the gaping deviations from canon? Not the ridiculous way that the captaincy is handed around based on who's in the turbolift, rather than who has the rank/seniority? It was the lens flares? Seriously?
Just think of them as the icing on the urinal cake that was Star Trek 90210.
People with no TVs spend a lot of time and effort pointing out that they do not have a TV....
I bet you are a blast to hang with at a social event. Between you, the person that ran a marathon, the person that rescued a pet from a shelter, and a vegan, I don't know who would be worse.
Well, obviously the marathon running vegan who took the rescued pet home to their TV-less house which was built entirely of recycled soda cans and bottles.
And don't forget to ask them about the solar panels and windmill.
... So while my TV hasn't been on in 2 days My cable box has been recording a show.(yea just one there is only one Between Wedensday and Saturday that I care enough to keep up with)....
Of course.
The others you care about will all be scheduled at the same time on the same night on several different channels.
I don't always pay, but not by choice. HBO won't take my money.
Does your money have cooties? Is it Nazi war loot? Businesses usually like money, and they usually prefer more money to less money. What do they find so offputting about yours?
I would think that some, at least, of the misunderstanding comes from the term "rape trigger" sounding like something that could induce one to commit rape, albeit in some sort of Manchurian candidate kind of way, which sounds more like bad SF (or earlier years physchological theory) than real life, but being previously unfamiliar with the term that's where my mind went first, to something which actually triggers the actual event.
Now if they'd called it "Sexual Trauma Memory Trigger" or something along those lines, it might be more immediately apparent what they meant.

A couple questions:
When in US history has the government been taken over by rogue elements?...
Every couple of years sometime in early November.
Okay, technically the following January.
Although I think it used to be March.

No Illuminati, no Knights Templar, no Free Masons, no Opus Dei, no Rosicrucians.
And you expect us to believe there's an actual conspiracy?
Marriage was a religious thing long before it became a government thing.
Marriage was a thing when the religious leaders were the government.
Or when government was the religious leader (and enforcer).
But it's Florida. Don't you have to take a sanity test and fail it before you're allowed to move there?
Moving there voluntarily counts as the test.
(actually I've never been there, and don't know enough about it to pass judgement)

Perhaps a bit of grammar and punctuation as well.
Is there "precendence" for that?

Hope your cousin makes full recovery and does so soon.
Were you previously Will in Seattle around here?
To be fair to them, plenty of other sites picked out everyone with a backpack except those two as well.

Well played, sir or madam, well played indeed!

Remember boys and girls, data 'R' plural, just like media.
Though I understand, would a kitteh every now and then really be such a bad thing?
I'd think a little pussy every now and then would be preferable.

They're talking about Lea Thompson...
Well, she does have experience in George Lucas films already.
"The only advantage Abrams would have is that it would be hard to make it worse."
Do not underestimate the power of lens flares.

The TV's not the one doing me wrong.
...Though to be fair, when they show their Michael Bolton ad, it brings me to the TV.)
Does this ad perchance feature Percy Sledge reaching down Bolton's throat and ripping his lungs out?
That would be TV worth paying for.
