When I was younger I had a couple of these, and I could absolutely see how people could interpret it as aliens/ghosts. It's such a feeling of overwhelming terror and/or dread with sometimes dreamlike "hallucinations," if that's the right word.
"In fact it my experience the statement is just the opposite."
You directly said your experience is the opposite of: "but at least there is generally some level of quality control there".
You therefore said there is NO level of quality control. Since it's a simple, basic, indisputable fact that they do in fact all have quality control of some form, you are wrong.
How does it feel to lie about something that's right there for everyone else to see?
You seriously just put eating meat on the same list as stealing, raping, murdering, and the FUCKING ATOMIC BOMB. You all should read this. Mod the post up so people can see what vegans truly believe. Disgusting.
Sorry, but you don't get to "eliminate the consumption of meat." Who the fuck do you think you are on your high horse? Guess what, every organism lives off of another. It's the circle of life. You might not like it, but that doesn't change it. You can easily respect life while also taking it when necessary for your own survival.
They weren't as perfect as some like to believe, but it's true that the Native Americans were proof that you can take life to survive while still having a deep respect for it.
There is no ethical argument against any farmed meat. The fact is humanity would not exist had we not eventually begun eating meat. People don't just get to change what millions of years of evolution has determined is a proper human diet.
This isn't a simple biological fact. I haven't eaten meat for over 6 years. What's supposed to happen to me if I don't eat meat? I don't take supplements either. Then you're unhealthy. It's that simple. No matter how good you think you feel/look (and let me tell you vegans never look remotely healthy) you are not getting a large amount of needed nutrition.
And let me furthermore state I don't know a single historian who would agree that he DID exist historically. Seriously you are just making this all up. For fucks sake this is my career.
You're just plain wrong. I'm an academic. My field is in religion. That means it's my degree and I've spent many years studying the historical issues specifically and it's what I still do. I can assure you there is no good outside evidence for the existance of a real person named Jesus. If you actually read the gospels, you see that out of all of them there is only one gospel asserts that Jesus was ever an actual person. The other gospels have no concept of that.
Knowing the material has NOTHING to do with whether you should be in the class or not. The point of being in class is to get insights and other explanations from an expert which may bring to light other ways of thinking about the material. And the fact is, unless you went to some shitty community college, or never went to college and are just lying (and I guarantee many I'm reading fall into one of these categories), your professor is an expert and when you sign up for a class, he has every right to expect you to be there. If it was an independent study the class would be registered that way.
It wasn't ad-hominem in the first place. But he did a good job being someone who read about logical fallacies on a website and thinks he's an expert. It makes academics like me who deal with this stuff for a livng pretty angry to have logical fallacies trivialized like that.
These jokes would be funny if the dollar was actually doing horrible. I wasn't aware the dollar being lower than it has in a while means its value is actually shitty somehow.
You're damn right they shouldn't. If someone has a static IP that can be then linked to the computer, it is then valid evidence and should be treated as such. A dynamic IP is completely different.
EXACTLY! It's your responsibility to make sure outside sounds don't disturb you. In a public place, including a train, no one else has any obligation to how you think they should act. As I already said to someone in the comments, get off you high fucking horse.

And this somehow makes it less ridiculous?
No, because in the study of logic you learn that you CAN in fact prove a negative, despite what internet cliches lead you to believe.

It installs Microsoft Virtual PC for me. wtf

Stop spreading this bullshit. They are hardly pumped up with antibiotics and hormones if you actually look at the facts.
Mod up for deliciousness.

We're animals. Animals eat dead things, deal with it.

Either you never went to college, went to the shittiest college in the world, or are just plain a liar.

Are you fucking serious? They NSGWP was in no way socialist. They used the term to gain supporters.
MOD UP. This may be one of the best most well-informed post in all of /. history.

You can't? Oh really? Do I seriously have to point out the multiple situations in which an IP address can indisputably be linked to a single computer?
live on*
But it IS provable through existing forensics, to differing degrees depending on the situation. Seriously, what planet do you life on?
