You nailed it with the cast-system comment. The USA is continuously trying to recreate the whole Nobility & Peasants thing. As has been said before: The pilgrims left England to be free to oppress.
Where have you been for the last decade? Everyone knows the reasons people have to use Windows. Or do you get off on watching the same tedious old arguments go round and round in circles yet again...
I don't play wow, have no intention of playing wow, and no interest in learning anything about it either. People who chortle up their sleeves because someone doesn't know some lame thing they know, are themselves lame.
No sane person (apart from american politicians) decides that cold-blooded mass murder (often of people only tangentially related to the source of their anger) is the best way to accomplish their goals.

It is possible, but then you have to accept that reality is nothing but a construct in our mind (whatever that is).I however do believe that there is a reality as such, and I guess most do.
This quotes sums up the morals of the entertainment "industry":
If Coca-Cola accidentally created 100 million cans of faulty Coke, you know for sure the entire 100 million cans would be dropped in the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean, without a second thought and irrespective of what that did to the year's profits. What do we do with a crappy movie? We double its advertising budget and hope for a big opening weekend. What have we done for the audience as they walk out of the cinema? We've alienated them. We've sold audiences a piece of junk; we just took twelve dollars away from a couple and we think we've done ourselves no long-term damage.

As far as the Yanks are concerned, they already think they own the whole world and everyone in it.

You've got chance at a slice of the pie? The 1% own the pie factory.
English is not their first language?

It's going to learn now though, with the rise of the robber-corporation.
Libertarians: spoiled selfish children
Just don't mention that the christian crusaders literally ate babies.

American asymmetry: Millions murdered by americans overeseas = police actions, 1 person with a remote-control firecracker = WAR!
Wouldn't that be Copywrote?
Sorry: Die in a pit of boiling mud.
People I know did :-(
Now this does need translating for foreigners: Waikikamukau looks like a maori place name, but is a joke: Why kick a moo-cow
Go on then, which two?

The term "being diplomatic" means always censoring everything you say. If a diplomat cannot live like that, then they are not a diplomat.
Yeah, where I grew up we have a crater (volcanic caldera) too, we call it Rotorua, and it makes up the horizon you see when there.
Yep, TSA Agents: perverts, pederasts, bullies and thieves.
