I spy wild speculation with no evidence off the port bow!

Dude, I know what you mean. Yesterday I ate a veggie burger and then I got some bad news over the telephone. I'm not anti-veggie burger of course, but if I have another one I'll look into the possibility of not putting barbecue sauce on it.

And how many of these papers have you read? Most people would expect an annotated bibliography at the minimum when you are presenting a lit search. Half of these papers are not even relevant.

Correlation vs Causation, a prime example:

Oh baby.... want to sit here next to me and talk about longitudinal epidemiological selection biases?

Personally, I find it really sexy when my mate understands that the process of peer review occasionally uncovers falsified data which results in studies being redacted and the author losing their medical license and reputation. Gets me so hot when someone knows that.

Ah, "haters". The old insult that every 13-year-old (or adult with equivalent maturity level) uses to insulate themselves from any criticism of their own irresponsible actions.

Now I'm just imagining the Oprah special where he's giving a tour of his lovely home, opens up the wrong door, and Oops! Piles and piles of skeletons fall out into the hallway in a cloud of dust. Just when you think there couldn't possibly be more human remains in that little closet one more skeleton flies out and…

Actually, unless I'm intentionally flirting, I find unsolicited comments on my appearance extremely creepy. Seriously, unless you're involved sexually or romantically, the following sequence is fucked up behavior:

I could have sworn the GOP's only form of approved birth control was keeping ones legs closed.

"An initial step was taken to immediately address a situation that had created a disruption in the classroom. Buncombe County Schools takes bullying very seriously, and we will continue to take steps to resolve this issue."

Yes, and fat kids shouldn't bring their fat to school and no one should wear glasses even if it means they can't read the blackboard. Don't even get me started on gingers.

Dogs. We should not be teaching our children to shake, sit and play dead! Now is the time for math! Science! Your devotion to dogs has gone on too long. I know they are cute... but we have our future to think about!

Every True Scotsman forgives you. Keep fighting the good fight.

You didn't bother reading or learning but you feel well qualified to judge. How Western of you.

Exactly. What's especially funny about this line of idiocy is that it utterly fails to apply its own logic to European societies. "But you guys, denying women the right to vote, own property, or marry without the permission of the father is a long-standing cultural tradition among English-speaking Protestants! It's…

Onlooker: "What's that in the sky? Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's Captain Cultural Relativism!"

(Captain Cultural Relativism lands in the middle of the crowd, clad in tight multicolored spandex, so as to represent all the unique and special lands of the world, with an incredible golden tower shield strapped to…

I'm German. Hearing those people talk I always wonder why nobody takes the route of how humiliating, persecuting, inflicting unspeakable pain on and murdering specific groups within a population, e.g. Jewish people is really just a cultural tradition that other people don't understand and shouldn't impose their…

I'm a third culture kid, meaning I've lived in many different countries and always felt like, and was treated as, a foreigner. But it made me realize we truly aren't that different. People are people are people. If I can help, I will help. Doing so in the least damaging way is of course important. I would never go and…
