Obviously doing it for no reason would be wrong, but as soon as there is some benefit to it it becomes a much more complex question. There is no right answer.
I seem to recall that one particular executed prisoner agreed to help study this. The arrangement was that the executed would continue to blink as long as possible, while an observer marked the time.
I wish I could remember any more detail than that.
That you are aware of. Do you overeat? Do you oversleep (or perhaps not sleep enough)? How about stress - how short is your fuse?
There's lots of non-obvious stresses that that can cause. Self-analysis is a developed skill. Knowing what is going on in your own head is harder than you'd think.
So? Have you actually had your androgen levels looked at? It's not a standard test, and wouldn't have been done without your request or should one of the results of having an imbalance prompted him to investigate.
I "feel" the same way as you do. But I did have the test (for other reasons) and I know that my testosterone and estrogen levels are terribly out of balance. I am working on correcting this, because if I don't - I am not going to be a very healthy person in another 10-20 years...
Oh, so that time we got t-boned when some moron ran a red light while going 20mph over the limit was somehow the fault of our e-gadgets?
The other driver had no gadgets with him. The light did not just change. We were in traffic as well, so it's not like he had a clear road and we were just suddenly there.
I didn't say that I can! What I actually said, should you care to pay attention to it (maybe you were texting?) is that I can switch the distraction off as soon as it becomes a liability.
I think you forgot the accident where your punctuation keys got ripped off the keyboard. Strangely your parenthesis and shift key managed to survive...
You know what happens when something comes up that requires more attention? After the event has passed, I ask the person to repeat what they were saying... because I was concentrating on what matters.
I can walk and chew gum. I can even run and chew gum! But I also have the sense to spit the gum out when I get winded...

So an exorcist is really just... tech support?
Tell me - when and how did YOU choose to be born human, and not an animal?
Tell me - when did that ever matter?
It comes down to moral arithmetic.

OK then. You're just wired differently. So long as you got it looked at.
It's not that we don't believe you, it's just that such "asexuality" is often a symptom of something Bad happening.
Oi, Microsoft! You're doing it wrong!
I don't much care why he did what he did, we need to see what he let us see.
I can't worry about both?
It seems to me, as an outsider, that Halal seems much less arbitrary there.
4) Use the flaw. If it causes damage you can be sure it will be fixed. Just don't do anything really stupid and don't get caught.
Never. Ever. Do. This.
The moment you do this you lose any moral ground you had, which is all you have if the law doesn't support you.
Pretty much, yes. Unless you think you can correct the people/media of course. I think that's an uphill battle, to be honest.
Apparently they trust these people with the guns they are provided with, but not the guns they are born with.
Seems a bit illogical to me.
It's funny how we have these interesting things called "prophylactics" that let you satisfy your psychological needs without actually reproducing...

I did not try to impose any world view upon you. You will not die without sex. Sex is not an absolute necessity.
You don't seem to understand that there is a difference between physiological needs and psychological needs.
If it was part of Firefox (it isn't) switching to Seamonkey wouldn't get you anything different...
You fucked up.

I'd like to point out that this was exactly what I was trying to say.
I was not saying I can multitask while driving. What I was saying, is that I can drop the other tasks when it becomes necessary.
I didn't say that I can! What I actually said, should you care to pay attention to it (maybe you were texting?) is that I can switch the distraction off as soon as it becomes a liability.
In contrast to this, every accident I've been involved in, they were just spacing out or made an error in judgement. No phones were involved.

I talk all the time when I'm driving.

That's not texting. That's talking.
