He complains constantly that his site is 'slow' (it's the database, trust me)
Sure...
and that he wants to do cool stuff like he sees on other sites but the software limits him. Why does he stick with such a piece of shit? His daughter has been administrating it for years cargo cult style and it's the only thing she knows.
Seems like an incompetent admin could make any software run like crap.
The US has many cultures, from all the people who came here-- some of them legally. You have only two: the Mexican culture I like, and the drug culture that results in mayors being beaten and killed, and bloggers' eviscerated bodies being hung from bridges. That being said, we have an attorney general who purposely allowed firearms to be sold to Mexican drug lords to exacerbate the situation, and all I can say in my defense is that I didn't vote for the guy who appointed him.
I would assume they like to drink a lot and show their parts to strangers
Those would be the movie stars.
they start shooting people randomly at schools, theaters or workplaces
Right... because a temperature change of less than.2 degrees is more likely a factor than development, a change in flora, growth or shrink in other animal populations, etc.
I vote every year... because your local elections for mayor/supervisor, council, school board, etc. are quite important. Maybe if we all participated in our local affairs, we wouldn't expect the federal government to do everything.
I don't see any indication in your post that he owned the bank. If I'm correct, then it seems the bank should have negotiated a settlement with him rather than allowing him to default, torpedoing his scheme.
And yet this jackass is not modded down. You don't know me, so how could you ever call me a hypocrite? And a necrophile, to boot. Even your insults are rubbish. Go upstairs, your mother is calling you, you ignorant cretin.
The Pennsylvania power companies, in exchange for deregulation, agreed to subsidize specific CFLs to make them cost $1 to the consumer. They also had set up funds to give people money for their old appliances.
You're making two stupid assumptions: One, that older people are conservatives; and two, that all conservatives oppose environmental concerns. These are both wrong. There are many senior citizens who were progressives when FDR was in the White House and they're still progressives. Also, conservatives are more conservationists than environmentalists, in that they are concerned about the environment but prefer using government to actually protect the environment rather than use the bureaucracy to attack companies and individuals or support other progressive ideals in concert.
I didn't say that changing the currency was despotism; I was saying that the attitude that the government will just make decisions that favor it over the people is a sign of despotism.
No, the US government has learned how to ignore the will of the people quite well, thanks. See: Patriot Act, ACA. Perhaps in the Canada, you like despotism, but we still resist here.
Well, duh. People would all go to Taco Bell if the government forced every other restaurant to shut down, too. We still wouldn't have any idea how to use the shells.
As an Australian, you have no idea why we still have $1 bills and pennies. It may or may not be an "irrational attachment", but since you haven't actual spoken to any real Americans about it you just don't know. You don't know whether it's irrational, or an attachment. What you have done is post yet another elitist, ignorant rant on Slashdot.

They'd already be sunk at Xylophone Tart.
Bing just gloms off Google anyway.
Sure...

Wait... I thought we hated the 1%?
Those would be the movie stars.
Sounds more like Mexico (the second culture)
Those would be our politicians.
I don't advertise in the yellow pages because I don't sell adult diapers or run a nursing home.

You, like most basement dwellers, assume that older people are more "conservative". There are many people who are progressive, and stay progressive.

If you think that telecommunications is an unregulated market, you are a friggin' moron.
Kids now never learned to do math. 30 year olds cut off at 1982. By the way, your mom's calling you out of the basement-- it's time for dinner.

Keep telling yourself that. You clearly have no idea that "Republican" is not a synonym of "conservative".

If a penny is suddenly 10 cents, it has increased in value tenfold. The government is now on the hook for 10x the value of all coins in circulation.
I see an American, not a prissy Australian who can't be trusted with firearms or violent video games.
Next to the onion...

Well, that's brilliant. You just increased the national debt to 160 trillion dollars.
You want to carry a stack of 1 and 5 dollar coins in your pocket? Or will it be in a sack tied to your belt?
