An incredibly influential public figure doing her best to help curb obesity in America? GOOD GOD, SOMEBODY HAS TO STOP HER!

I love how in the article, they treat the woman interviewee as if she's the victim of some cruel underworld peer pressure. She's a stupid college chick who decided to poor alcohol into her eye socket. I just want to let all of you know to not feel sorry for me if I decide to disturb bear cubs in the presence of their mothers because "all the cool kids are doing it".

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12...quick-buzz.html I saw this featured on the Colbert Report, and looked up some articles online to corroborate. Apparently this practice is getting pretty big in the UK and spreading quickly to the US. Are you f*cking kidding me? Vodka Eyeballing?

Because it's unusual. For most men, there aren't chemicals running through our bodies screaming "GOTTA F*CK DOGS, GOTTA F*CK DOGS, GOTTA F*CK DOGS" They are, however, screaming "GOTTA F*CK YOUNG WOMEN, GOTTA F*CK YOUNG WOMEN, GOTTA F*CK YOUNG WOMEN" The two most ingrained instincts in the brain of any species are... 1. Survive 2. Continue the species through reproduction Now, an 18 year old woman is exponentially more fertile than a 35 year old woman, making the 18 year old more attractive for sex. Being humans and not animals, we have the unique ability to deny these urges if we so please. But the thought itself isn't perverted in any way. I'd argue the act isn't perverted either, based on the tenets of our law.

A 32 year old man who wants to have sex with an 18 year old is simply reacting to natural instinct, not a pervert. The moral implications are, of course, a different story...but he's not a pervert. If you don't want to have sex with 18 year olds, even from a physical perspective, then you are the exception and not the rule.

Despite not posting in this thread for months, I'm still winning. That's just a testament to my absolute dominance.

Ok, I trust we'll get your real opinion on all this stuff when she's not looking over your shoulder.

Despite ongoing challenges (and, really, who doesn't have ongoing challenges?), it sounds like you and your family are very close to weathering this storm. And remember, people who survive these types of experiences (even if it happens when they're young children) tend to be better people for it. Unlike most of the spoiled generation of children this country raises, your daughter will always know the meaning of struggle and true success.

Well, if you ever change your mind and have to vent, you know there's nothing but friendly ears on this board when it comes to this sort of thing. My best thoughts to you and your wife.

Around here, that's ALL the 18-20 year old girls are interested in...I suspect it usually involves get back at mommy and daddy, but the first thing the freshmen girls do is get their fake IDs and hit the bars.

I'm very sorry about your Mom, dev. Cancer's a B word, and almost everybody I know has been affected by it in some way or another. I'm fortunate enough to still have both of my parents, but it's claimed 3 of my grandparents and watching it happen is just awful. Hopefully this is news of a potential vaccine is the official light at the end of the tunnel (though the cynic in me doubts it).

For the fellow gym-rats...what are your favorite songs that motivate you when you're lifting/doing cardio/etc.? My Top Ten... 1. Guns N' Roses - Welcome to the Jungle 2. Muse - Knights of Cydonia 3. AC/DC - Thunderstruck 4. System of a Down - Chop Suey 5. Eminem - Lose Yourself 6. Nelly - Heart of a Champion 7. White Stripes - Seven Nation Army 8. The Offspring - Hit That 9. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Fight Like a Brave 10. Andrew W.K. - Ready to Die

Most certainly. But amidst the celebration that death came to a c*cksucker who deserved it, I didn't want it to go unsaid that pity ought to go to the one (or perhaps the few) who didn't deserve it. I know collateral damage is just an unfortunate part of the game, but I hope that doesn't mean we can't feel bad about it.

The article mentions that a grandchild was killed in the attack. Assuming this was an innocent child guilty of nothing, RIP.

Given his physical advantage, Hardy probably is the odds-on favorite to win the #2 wide receiver job this year over guys like Johnson, Parrish and Jackson. On top of that, the quotes you posted are indeed encouraging. But in the words of many wise men on this board, show me the baby. Anything approaching 600 yards and 5 TDs this year from Hardy will impress me.

Though it's unlikely, a sh*tty husband can still be a good father. I respect the woman for not being selfish, realizing he has paternity rights, and that it's good for a child to know their father even if it's no longer a traditional household.

Honestly, I was blindfolded and the whole thing is something of a blur because Presley slipped me something in my champagne and made off with all my money. I certainly remember doing some of the fun things, but Presley was quite greedy with Ennifer as I recall.

To answer your questions...Yes, Yes, and He played it whenever he wasn't watching porn. Take it from a guy who was an adolescent during the internet era...he'll find the porn quite easily. If he's anything like me, he won't hide it from you very effectively (though he'll think he is).

Very nice post. I agree with all of this. While you must admit that far too many people DO take a particular stance on global warming just for the sake staying on their "side", I was wrong in my vapid overgeneralization, and therefore no better than those I criticized. Thank you. Truth be told, I don't understand the issue very well myself because I find meteorology/climatology very dull. I suppose I just wanted to join the conversation for the sake of my own ego, and drivel spilled out.

I don't begrudge the issue being political, I'm wondering why it's so distinctly partisan. What's happening physically with the climate has pretty much no relation whatsoever to social or economic convervatism or liberalism...and yet everybody seems to have aligned themselves based on their political identities. Many liberals have themselves convinced the world is being destroyed. Many conservatives have themselves convinced the entire global warming theory is completely bunk. The truth is likely between these two ridiculous extremes, but hey, we all have to pick a side right?

No, it should be about regulations, taxes and control. What it is, is a giant partisan pissing contest.

I love how the global warming theory has somehow turned into a partisan issue. Every liberal I know blindly believes that global warming is destroying everything because that's what their masters tell them. Every conservative I know blindly refutes global warming because that's what their masters tell them. Sure, both libs and cons try to produce bogus "evidence" to support their "side", but in reality they probably don't understand the first thing about climatology. I'm a Democrat, and I believe in global warming. Just look at this movie by Al Gore. I'm a Republican, and I don't believe in global warming, because Rush Limbaugh told me how it's all a big liberal conspiracy. And the beat goes on. If somebody could give me one good reason why political leanings have ANYTHING to do with views on climatology, I'll be impressed.

C'mon, the kid deserves a smoke after a long day at the office.

From this perspective, maybe...but consider how unproductive a morbidly obese person is to society. Old people are a burden...obese people, especially the ones who are lucky enough to be labeled "disabled" are a bigger burden.

Yeah, it's a mess down there alright. As much as we all love bickering over politics, the biggest problem currently facing the nation is the fact that we're eating ourselves to death. America's obesity "epidemic" is pathetic and sad. We're becoming a nation of 300 pound waddling penguins, and despite vast improvement in life-saving medicine, this generation of children is the first in America to have a lower life expectancy than their parents. Joints like In N Out Burger and Five Guys only compound the problem (not that it's their fault that we can't use moderation, but it still compounds the problem).
