It has happened, though it's exceedingly rare; a 3-year-old girl was abducted by a sea eagle in Leka, Norway in 1932. Loads of ornithologists will tell you it was impossible, since the girl weighed 19 pounds, and normally an eagle can only carry 8, but it was a large bird, and winds that day were strong. Also, my…

- Arrive late to the airport (but not TOO late), wearing very smart clothing and a friendly smile; most flights are overbooked, so quite often you'll get bumped to first or business-class.

Old meme is old?

Done!

...you're kinda making my point for me... especially as I've pointed out we agree on the basics, and my only point of contention with the article is that it professed that abortion for ANY reason was fine after week 23, which I don't agree with. Health reasons (any health reason), abort that foetus with my blessing.

I'm for free abortion until full term if there's ANY health risk to the mother. Again, my only real complaint with the article was that it said abortion for ANY reason should be allowed after week 20, which I don't agree with.

HPV is pretty incurable too, unless you're already vaccinated... just saying, check for warts too...

You should google "Hamas" before you out yourself as someone not knowing what they're talking about. It's not a person, but an organization, with a militant and a political side, much like the IRA in Ireland. You're not wrong that they're dicks, but so are the Israelis. They've been trying to outdick eachother for…

Mmm. There was no anger in my post, and one swear. I also agree with every view you just counted as american, though I try to avoid the xenophobia and jingoism you clearly love so much. Try re-reading my post. The last part was meant as an ironic example of a black-and-white statment (though I admit it could have been…

Uh, you really need to re-read my post before you fly off the handle. I don't disagree with a single thing you said, but you just completely proved my view about people just screaming their views at each-other without listening.

AH, well in that case we're exactly on the same page; my original problem was that the article used the term "for any reason", as if "I felt like it" should be valid at week 25 - which I don't agree with. I DO agree that it should be allowed until then for more "valid" reasons, and after that for medical reasons.…

Oh, and to clarify (since my original post lacked some clarity apparently(see what I did there?)):

That's mildly patronizing, since I already revealed English isn't my first language (actually fourth). But yeah, I understand that. What's your point? The article is whooping up the fact that more people think abortion for "any reason" is ok until 25 weeks; I think 25 weeks is too long for "any reason", but I'm still…

Ah, yes, I made my point badly I see. That was supposed to be an ironic example of a black-and-white statement... based on my own beliefs, but not meant to be an actual guideline for others.

I hate the way both camps are so black/white about everything. I'm a liberal atheist Swede, but even I think abortion under ANY circumstance is batshit crazy. In my book, you get 12 weeks of pure unadulterated choice. After that, it's real special circumstances up to 25 weeks. After that, fuck you, take care of your…

But that's insane, my wife was told by her doc she could take codein tabs throughout the pregnancy - and of course we researched it as well anyway, and it's ok (up to 8 tabs a day, in fact).

Finally, an american who uses the word "swag" correctly.

My very first Halloween (we don't really celebrate it in Sweden) was as a student in the UK. I literally had no idea the party I had been invited to that night was a costume party, until my flatmate told me in Sociology at 4pm. I ran to the costume shop, which closed at 5pm, and of course it was completely wiped out;…

FINALLY beat the Hardestestest level (Hyper Hexagonest) - for those following in my hallowed footsteps, a warning: at 60 secs the screen goes black, and I did a little celebratory dance as I thought the game had ended... thus leaving me no time at all to avoide the giant wall that hit me at exactly 64 seconds. Still,…

I make my own sauce, which seems similar to Sriracha (which I've never tried): pureed chilies (bout half a kilo), with spices, some small tomatoes and garlic. It then cures with Maldon seasalt overnight, after which I add olive oil. It is un-fudging-believably good, and goes on everything. Lately I've started…
