MrCapitalism

Interesting enough, this was shared by a woman who I dated many years ago (in highschool) was a cutter and anorexic. Your reaction isn't suprising to me, that's most likely why she chose this article.

'What I Be' Project Reveals People's Darkest Insecurities In Stunning Photos (HuffPo) Okay, some of these people have been dealt a bad hand and are behing held responsible for it.. I get that.But seriously? "I am not my abortion" "I am not my charachter" "I am not my thoughts"Then what are you?Someone posted this as some sort of deep statement of truth, and it's created as such. It's very PoMo for people to pretend to describe who they are by telling others who they aren't and expecting them to fill in the rest. How about the libertarian response...where people don't take responsiblity for the things which they have no control, and take responsibility for the things they do control.Seriously? "I am not my abortion." Then who is?

What's the success rate on that?Out of all attempts to pray to Jesus to revive people dead for 24 hours, what percentage of the time does that work? If they don't pray to Jesus, what's the percentage of people who are 'revived' after being declared dead for 24 hours?If I gave you a revolver loaded with 6 bullets and told you to point it at your head and pull the trigger six times, would you pray to Jesus that all 6 primers fail and expect to live through the test? If you had a lethal infection which was known to be very vulnerable to antibiotics, and you took those antibiotics, and you didn't pray to Jesus, what would you expect your chances would be of living through the infection?

So if you think it's a bad policy. why do you advocate for it now?

I can still see posts from users with a bad reputation if I want to.

I disagree with this.I remember several years ago watching a homeless man (obviously a veteran) making a Vietnam War sculpture out of sand at the beach. During the war in Vietnam, crowds shouted down, threatened, and harassed general infantry. The hostility (as has been reported) was enormous.The veteran was discussing the currently waging war in Iraq, and how different the culture of protest was now compared to then. He mentioned, "back then they held the average soldier responsible, called them baby-killers. Now they protest the war, but they have respect for the troops."That didn't work the last time, that's why they don't do it now.

A Classic about using sense to determine reality... for your painting pleasure.. FDR 25: Validating the Senses http://media.freedomainradio.com/feed/validating_the_senses.mp3

No. Yes.

I recommend UPB. For me, it proved that nihilism is invalid. It was the only argument that gave me what I accept as logical proof.

I'm bummed that Stef didn't mention that irony in his video. There's a difference between randomly dying in a traffic accident, and knowingly stepping into a performance vehicle without an experienced driver, suitable safety equipment, and driving it in a completely inappropriate place (which is what the "Fast & Furious" movies are all about.) There are no trees on race tracks. Paul Walker had a net worth of $45 Million. He could have afforded to take sports cars seriously. "The Stig" is a professional motorist dressed in a flame resistant suit and wearing a crash helmet.

Been a long time since we had a 'debt is usury, the dollar is an IOU' post.... Are you proposing that we should make loans in gold or other monetary instruments? (not a bad idea at all really)

Your inner critic would really like to speak to you.

I think Garet Garrett wrote the best response:

A single woman living with her parents/white knight boyfriend/ government provided housing/ and raising her 2 children, both from different fathers, neither of which is in a relationship with her. If women want to settle down and have children, there's nothing about modern society that holds them responsible for that decision.

I think a great response might be to express your genuine feelings in the moment to them.

As a Pilot, I (and probably the FAA) could care less.. so long as these things stay below 500' above the ground, and get no closer than 4 miles to any airport. Those are going to be very hard to see, and are really gonna hurt when I smash into them. I actually think this looks incredibly inefficient, but my opinion doesn't matter. What happens to that little box the product came in? What if the thing is larger then that box size? Why does it only carry one product at a time? While I advocate for the abolition of the F.A.A. (and the DOT). I gotta give those guys some credit... it's probably one of the best functioning government agencies that I've ever seen (it just has to work, and so I guess it does... ) The government has pretty much established a monopoly on the separation of aircraft in flight.

That's been my experience. Except for the parts about physical beauty and flawlessness, I don't know of any girls that act like you describe.

IMHO, Children know they are precious the day they are born.

You feel a need to initiate violence against these people, because they are peacefully behaving in a way that you do not like?

What's your work history?

Holy crap, congratulations on putting in the effort to show up to that nonsense...

If memory serves, this is the "Don Juan" approach, and looked upon by both Don Juan's, and PUA's as 'PUA-lite.' It's used by men who aren't committed to using serious PUA manipulation tactics, and both schools recognize it as such.

So what is it about "allowing them to live equal or comparative lifestyles to those in the 1st world" that makes this standard fair? How is that fair for the rest of the world, which now has to pay higher prices? Then you get less capital. And I do not believe the situation in the middle east is anywhere near a 'free market.'

What's a "fair price"? If I make a guess based off the assumption that this 'fair price' is higher than the current price, then I don't think your statement can be refuted. In essence you're saying, "if oil were more expensive, then oil would be more expensive." If the price of oil is too expensive for one party, then obviously it isn't a fair price.

I just want to represent the "ramble-fest" fans. I have no desire, nor need to listen to shorter podcasts. I'm a computer gamer and general heavy user of computers, so I really enjoy being able to play a podcast in the background while I'm driving a tank/ causing mischief. If it takes Stef 2 hours to construct an argument I have no complaints with that... especially when I'm in the middle of a 16 hour flight across the world on my flight simulator To each his own!
