Seems like the best course of action would be to teach everyone not to rape. I don't see why that would be a problem, and I certainly don't see why that would be idiotic. If women were incapable of perpetrating rape, I would agree with you, but... that's not the case. You have basically said it is idiotic to even…

You did say "people", you also said "almost always boys", so I read into that. If I read into it wrong, and from what you've said, I did, I apologize.

I wrote quite a long reply thinking that yours was a reply to a different post of mine. I accused you of being ignorant because you skipped over many of my points. I then double checked and say you were replying to a different post. I have since re-written my reply. Apologies.

See what I said to the other person who replied, is somewhat applies to what you have said, or explains my reasoning.

Stating or acknowledging the fact that statistically more reported rapes are committed by men than women is not sexist (at not, not in any way other than "life is sexist"), but the original comment seemed less stating a fact and more making a jab. Was it necessary to add "who are almost always boys"? Did it add…

...I think we're in agreement. I'm pretty sure I was being facetious.

Yeah... but we seem to just have sales. "This product is cheaper for everyone, even if you are unaware." I much prefer that. I get things, or more of things, specifically because they are on sale, but I don't want to have to spend the time going through coupons, cutting them out, collecting them, deciding which…

I would say 'no'... but that's mostly as someone who's waited in line behind people who swiped their debit card four times and still isn't working, and less as someone who understands the confusion... But my mum is like that, we don't even typically let her do it on her own, I either just have her debit card ahead of…

What Kategories said: all the factors you list don't typically exist for the reasons you list them. Still slow people, but not for those reasons, and discounting those reasons, I would say less slow people than you have to deal with.

If I'm not mistaken, that doesn't count for the FAA... but I don't know, I've only flown one hour in the past dozen years, I don't know what the rules are, and that hour was within Canada, so the FAA had nothing to do with anything.

Hey, I hate people talking on calls too, but... I'm not going to ban phones over it, just give people dirty looks and maybe sush them. Personal interaction, not statutory action.

I'm inclined to agree with the general "once it's out there, it's out there" message of other repliers. If you really don't want it out there, post it somewhere/somehow that it can't be saved and reuploaded, but since that's virtually impossible (for the technologically inclined, for those that aren't it's pretty…

I must have missed that being said.... or considering in Canada we spend about 4 months languishing that same statement, before spending 8 months stating that winter has arrived, I just didn't notice it.

Not much better...

I don't know if we can say for certain it doesn't apply to all black holes... but you're welcome to test the theory out.

Pff, that's the easy way to accomplish the same thing. Live a little! Fly into a black hole!

I'm inclined to agree with you. I do not recall him saying that.

Those are not all covered under the Roddenberry-Abrams Principle. You've described the Roddenberry-Aroeste, Roddenberry-de Lancie, and Roddenberry-Behr Principles!

I think you mean Gary Mitchell...

Interesting... Still can't understand how the front of a building would get ripped off/collapsed, but the rest would stay standing.
