I'm going to assume you don't work for a suicide-prevention hotline.

As a frequent gimp myself (arthritis), I fully support this action. But, I'm still keeping the mask.

"I don't care what you smell! Get in there!"

Gimp as in you walk funny, or leather suit and zipper mask?

I always assumed the -pie in creampie referred to a vagina, so...

Human beings fuck, sometimes in interesting ways. It's not remarkably degrading. Save it for church, churchy.

The Dothraki are nomadic and warlike, which only translates to "savage barbarians" if you want it to. The white Westerosi are not portrayed in a way that makes them seem any less savage or barbarian than the Dothraki, the single difference is cities and castles vs. tents and constant travel.

The consent of the governed is what makes the power "just", and consent can be gleaned from the fact that voting for the Patriot Act etc. hasn't cost those politicians their jobs. You get the government you deserve.

Yes, if planes were piloted by average Joes, in tight formation with hundreds or thousands of other planes being operated by equally unskilled pilots, and we used them to get to and from work every day, and to the grocery store, and to drop off the kids at soccer, and there were a hundred million of them in the air at…

You don't think that rigid maintenance protocols, skilled, experienced operators, and the air traffic control system have anything to do with air travel being relatively safer? It's all just a trick being played on you by statisticians?

But he played the recording right in front of Luke, even without knowing what it might say?

It took a fun adventure trilogy that was beloved by millions, and turned it into another boring, formulaic crap-fest whose timeline had to be tortured beyond recognition so that George Lucas could link every character and event from the original trilogy no matter how ridiculous the outcome. Darth Vader built C-3PO,…

Strange, I thought Catholicism was all about the fading Roman empire co-opting Christianity in a desperate attempt to cling to power for a little longer. My bad, I guess.

You are trying to separate masculinity and machismo, which I'm all for. However, you negate your entire argument when you associate having confidence and self-assurance with being more or less "manly". Isn't it a value judgement to claim that a man who worries what people think of him is less manly than a man who…

You're probably not a paranoid lunatic, but you have to admit when people are advocating armed overthrow of a government that is still democratic, however imperfect the system my be, it makes those of us who don't want a civil war look at you a certain way, and make certain assumptions about your character.

I've regurgitated no platitudes; remember it was you making completely ridiculous and verifiably false claims to back up your position. Your first sentence reads like an admission that your position is just as ideologically driven as the other side.

This was only slightly less pathetic than the guy that tried to change my mind with a video of John Stossel. So Penn trots out the actual statistics, scientific data, that support the gun control side of the argument, and then counters it with ideology and anecdotal evidence. Perfect. I accept your concession.

The US Census bureau reports 129,741 intentional homicides between 2000-2008, as classified by the Uniform Crime Reporting program. Of these 129,741 intentional homicides, 66% of them were committed with some type of firearm (51% of them being handguns). This is twice as many homicides committed by gun than all…

Except that sensible gun restrictions /= populace rendered unable to defend themselves. How many other countries have to enact gun laws without a commensurate jump in fatal criminal acts before you'll accept that maybe you're wrong? There are an estimated 300 million guns in the US right now; basically one for every…

This is the kind of person who demands to be trusted with a gun. And people wonder why we want gun control. He makes a good point about the failure of the mental health system though, just by being him.
