By that rationale, I should have no compunction about eating humans (or raising them in terrible conditions and then slaughtering them).

The books don’t address Benjen’s whereabouts either, but some popular theories speculate that he could be a character known as Coldhands. This character did not (and likely won’t) appear at all on the show though. I don’t think these theories are correct, myself, but they are a hell of a lot more plausible than…
Because I don’t want to make a list for you I’m lying? Ok, sure. You “win,” I must be a liar. :) Goodnight/day sir/madam wannabe nihilist.
Funny, your translation of my words are almost exactly how I would have translated yours. Just step back and look at it for a sec. You’re accusing me of not backing up my claim because I pointed out that you hadn’t backed up your claim (notice I didn’t demand that you do so, either). Irony much? Actually, I think it’s…
Almost everything you said needs a really big [citation needed] after it. Most of it is factually wrong.
You might achieve your attempt to sound profound more easily if you spell “peace” correctly. That said, I know the world I live in is not a nice place, I pretty explicitly stated that above. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want to do what I can to make it nicer while I’m here. Nor does it mean that the world is…
What you foolish MRA’s never seem to understand is the culture you’re living in. Rape IRL is largely still tolerated, swept under the rug and ignored, and worse yet, the victim is often blamed. We “SJWs” (a term I don’t mind being labeled as, and find it telling you think it’s pejorative) would like that to change.…
Really? You’re pulling out the “white people suffer from racism too!” card? I can only reiterate my last post... privilege: you don’t get it.
Then you will never understand the very basic concept of privilege. Never. (Sad, really).
Yes, it does mean 250 million LY. That’s still somewhat close as galaxies within a supercluster go, and has been thought to be the distance to the center of the “Great Attractor” for a while. It’s been proposed we are just being pulled towards the center of a supercluster previously unknown in that direction…
Just a clarification... You’re right we’re not spiraling into the black hole, we are orbiting the galactic nucleus in a similar way to how Earth orbits the sun, just a little more haphazardly. But the spiral structure is actually not because the center is spinning faster than the outer arms (they are doing this to a…
Seems like a tradition that could have been started by a drunk, beligerant, and possbily bitter neighbor “friend.” I have neighbors who would deserve to have to clean up broken pottery on new years day, thanks to their “friend” in the neighborhood.
And to add one thing... A **SPOILER ALERT.** But really just to state the obvious, this gift-giving service Cousin Shy provides is actually one provided by those adults willing to sneak around, hopefully in some coustume, to hide the loot, which is by no means Christmas-level type gifts, but usually small and…
Superstition aside, this is some awesome local architecture. I wish *I* had a slanted window, not to ward off witches, but just because that’s effin’ cool.
I’m not sure this qualifies entirely as superstition as much as a tradition in the same vein as Santa Claus. But around where I live in the northern Bay Area of California, there is the legend of “Cousin Shy.”
What wiring in my brain is going wrong when images like this make me really hungry?
I can’t help but wonder how much amphetamine your “XTC” was cut with. This is extremely common if you didn’t know already.
The down has a lot to do with frequency of use and how high a dose you took. I know plenty of people who use only once every few months at reasonable levels and feel almost no negative post-roll downer effect. A good benzodiazepine has been known to make the comedown and post-roll blues virtually unnoticable. And…
Guess you’ve never heard of regeant tests, or better yet, sending a small sample to a professional lab. You sure as hell can make sure it’s pure, or close to it, but that falls into the category of time consuming, and very slightly costly preparation, which isn’t possible when you’re buying for use that night at a…
I have to admit, that really is an awesome idea that would make a great short scifi read (though probably not film script as was also suggested). The problem I see is that with true heat death (esp if the big rip happens) of the universe, everything becomes impossible. Particles don’t interact anymore, so you (or a…
