Remember, it is better to sit quietly in the corner having everybody think you're a moron than to open your mouth and remove any lingering doubt.
Unfortunately, I look like a moron and there is no lingering doubt about that. I've learned over the years to play into that perception by letting people think I'm a moron and let them set their expectations for me at an incredibly low level. Whenever I excel at something that should be impossible, they are shocked and awe at my abilities.
If you can't determine the meaning of words or phrases within the framework of the context in which they're used you're the one with issues and nobody gives a shit about your arbitrary mere opinion, get it?
I read and understood what the OP wrote just fine — after I read it two or three times. For someone proclaiming to have a university education, I find it disturbing that person would write like a Millennial speaking out of his ass.
Believe it or not, they're now grooming Chelsea to be the next political Clinton operative.
If she's follows her mother's footsteps by running for Senate, serving time as a Senator (her mother served for eight years), and then running for president, I don't have problem with that. I just don't see her running for president in 2020 or 2024 with the Clinton baggage train following her. Undoubtedly, one of the Bush kids will have to run against her.
if you're retarded enough to think everyone on the internet is going to proofread and use proper grammar and composition on a freaking forum then you're an idiot and need a reality check.

I always find it funny when retards like this comments on the use of the English language, thinking it is the only language used in the world.
According to Wikipedia, English is the largest world language.
One of the most widely spoken and fastest spreading world languages today is English, which has over 900 million first- and second-language users worldwide. It is estimated to have as many as 600 million second-language speakers, including anywhere between 200 and 350 million learners/users in China alone, at varying levels of study and proficiency, though this number is difficult to accurately assess. English is also increasingly becoming the dominant language of scientific research and papers worldwide, having even outpaced national languages in Western European countries, including France, where a recent study showed that English has massively displaced French as the language of scientific research in "hard" as well as in applied sciences.
Hillary! lost the Democrat nomination in 2008 despite having the entire process rigged for her.
Not quite. She favored the states that voted in primaries while Obama favored the states that voted in caucuses. By the time someone crunched the numbers in the Hillary campaign, Obama had enough delegates to lock up the nomination. It was Hillary who nominated Obama by acclamation from the convention floor. Something that no Republican would have done for Trump.
Hillary! almost lost the Democrat nomination - to someone who wasn't a member of the Democratic Party! - despite having the entire process rigged in her favor.
Not quite. Super delegates has been a standard feature for Democratic conventions since 1969. After Super Tuesday, Bernie Sanders had to win every primary election with 60% of the vote in order to win the nomination and he failed to get the votes. If super delegates were removed from the equations, Bernie still wouldn't have enough delegates to lock up the nomination.
THEN Hillary! lost the general election to a blowhard clownish demagogue despite having the entire media world covering up her negatives and all but openly pulling for her.
Not quite. The media gave Trump $2B in free advertising while focusing on and sometimes making up stuff about Hillary's email server.
I'm sure if Hillary! wants to keep running, the Republicans will be happy.
The Clintons have been good business for Republican fundraisers over the last 30 years. They will sorely be missed for years to come.
Trump will very likely be inaugurated (he's got the best protection and the best life insurance in the world) [...]
The best protection and the best life insurance in the world isn't going to protect Trump's fragile ego if the vote recounts in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin increases Hillary's popular vote count, or the electoral college does it job by voting for Hillary instead. If either or both of those events happen, expect an epic Twitter storm at 3AM.
[...] and for Clinton, I'm sure she is ready to run for president a third time in 4 years.
Unless the Trump administration is a complete disaster that only Hillary can save the country, it seems very unlikely that she will run again.
As young help desk technician eight years ago, Flash was almost as worst as the intranet sites that required IE6 to work. Every month a new version of Flash comes out to break the intranet sites for users because the program auto updates on its own and the intranet team was always two weeks behind on updating Flash on the web servers. Every month I got tickets to remote into systems to rollback to the previous version of Flash to get the intranet sites working again.
As a computer security technician today, Silverlight is becoming the new Flash with problematic installs that refuse to update properly. Every month the Nessus scan spits out a list of systems that I remote into to run a Microsoft Fix-It program to uninstall the older version and reinstall the baseline version.
After what Harry Reid did in employing the "nuclear option" on appointments the Republicans would be foolish to allow Democrats to filibuster anything.
Senate traditionalists won't abolish the filibuster. The next time that the Republicans find themselves as the minority party, which could be as early as 2018, they will sorely miss the power to filibuster the Democrats. No party majority has ever been permanent in the Senate.
As for the Republican obstruction lie [...]
The Republican obstruction was no lie. Let's consider the recent case of an opening on the Supreme Court earlier this year. President Obama nominates an older judge whom Republican senators previously confirmed by a wide margin, a safe choice that upsets many Democrats who wanted a young liberal firebrand to replace an old conservative firebrand. Under normal circumstances, a confirmation hearing and vote would have happen in a timely fashion. But that haven't happened because the Republicans are arguing for the next president should fill the Supreme Court. That's obstruction. It's been going on for nearly eight years.
Regarding earthquakes there are tall buildings in lots of earthquake zones around the world.
Most of those locations don't have an FAA-imposed height restriction. No one is advocating the removal of the San Jose International Airport. Remove the airport, tall buildings will sprout up. I suspect the residents of the old neighborhoods that got removed for the runaway expansion in the 1960's and the noise control zone in the 1990's will want their property back.
Imagine what a small number of high rises could mean to the housing market.
Many of which are already coming to the market in downtown San Jose. However, all of it is luxury apartments and condos. Even my 50-year-old apartment complex outside of downtown is marketed as luxury apartments with new exterior paint and landscaping. The rent went up even though a brand new luxury apartment complex opened up down the street.
You say that as almost if you think that was a good thing.....?!!?
Yes, because it true. Under the Bush economy, I got put out of work for two years (2009-10), underemployed for six months (working 20 hours per month), and filed for chapter seven bankruptcy in 2011. Under the Obama economy, I've worked 20+ jobs in the last five years to return to where I was before the Great Recession.
Obama..worst president to date, just barely undercutting the previous Bush.
Obama was awesome. He reminded me very much George H.W. Bush administration. Nice and steady. No major scandals.
I do think he knows how to gather people around him that do.
Trump is hiring the best and the brightest from Wall Street who got us into — and profited from — the Great Recession. So much for draining the swamp.
Certainly the rest of the world is thinking about themselves first too....and we need to do the same, or lose.
Trump will think of himself first as he and his fellow crony capitalists line their pockets at the public's expense.
I read to the end and his post-script about those factors seemed more speculation than anything.
The 22-story height limit is set by the FAA due to air traffic patterns around the airport. Bedrock might be speculation. The earthquake zone is not speculation. The epicenter for the Loma Pieta earthquake in 1989 is 20 miles away. The epicenter for the Alum Rock earthquake a few years ago is five miles away. The San Andreas fault line — the Big One to send California real estate into the ocean that I've been waiting for 30+ years — is around here somewhere.
I did some searching and found that San Jose restricts building height, which limits density.
If you read the article all the way to the end, the author updated his article that the building height in San Jose is restricted by the local airport, bedrock incapable of supporting taller buildings and an active earthquake zone.
I really have to wonder about that. Is this 'normal expected behaviour' in the US?
College loans are easy to get these days. My friend's niece went to acting school in New York City for $32K per semester, got minor roles in Broadway plays during the summers, and wasn't able to get into a Broadway play after graduation. Her father brought her home to California, she now works at Staples and appears in local productions. Meanwhile, a $256K financial time bomb is ticking in the background.
No one knows the future, but seriously, just because he won over Hillary isn't the end of the world.
If Hillary got elected, it would have been business as usual and things would have continued on as they have under Obama. Since Trump got elected, the world has become a much more unpredictable place and I'm hoarding cash for the immediate future. I barely recovered from the Great Recession. I'm not sure if I can go through another economic disaster of failed Republican policies.
I am no big fan of his, but so far, I've seen him mellow on some of the more harsh rhetoric in the campaign.
Which means he lied on the campaign trail or lying to everyone else now. He's already been called a traitor by the Alt Right crowd for not wanting to appoint a special prosecutor for Hillary Clinton. The people he's picking for his administration are not mellowing their positions.

Why is it that retarded Americans actually think the "World Series" encompasses any significant portion of the world?
Other than the U.S., Canada and Japan, how many other countries have baseball as a sport? Sorry, cricket doesn't count.
Well last time I had to do anything with an uni was more than 20 years ago but even than I could use simple mosaic on win3 shit IIRC.
Based on the way you wrote your comment, proper English wasn't a requirement for your "uni" degree.

It must be impossible to devise more sophisticated engineering for taller buildings...
Especially if they're too heavy.
