  1. Whenever a car repair question comes up, I always ask myself if there is a better vehicle available that is worth less than the repair. Usually correlates with the repair costing more than the trade-in value.
  2. I automatically ignore anyone who equates CO2 emissions as air pollution.
  3. So we've entered the time when studios dump their pet projects for oscar consideration. I hope Chris O'donnel does a cameo in Everest. M Knight shayamalan goes back to his roots. The Scorch sounds like a fraternity hazing ritual. How many days until Star Wars?
  4. The fastest way to narrow the wealth gap is to push inflation as high as you can. A poor person with nothing is worth as much as a rich person's pile of worthless paper. If everyone lives in poverty, only then will it be "fair".
  5. Damon is simply saying that when hiring people behind the scenes, it's important to focus on getting the right person for the job. When hiring on screen, you need to prioritize race instead of merit to push the propaganda. A rare moment of truth.
  6. I felt in danger wearing Bills gear in RWS. I bought a ticket on the exchange and his friend didn't like me buying it. Good thing he got drunk and never came back to his seat after halftime.
  7. So it's like Hippie comic-con? You go there to find out what new drugs are coming out this year.
  8. Now i'm curious since I'm planning on doing it myself... Do I need more than a level and stud finder to mount a tv to a wall? To me, it's like hiring a guy to hang pictures up for you. Am I missing something?
  9. If movies taught us anything, the proper way to correct a cheating ref is to throw the football at his nuts.
  10. It was 4th grade, she wasn't a "Spanish" teacher. Just a regular teacher that taught all the subjects. You say a person's name the way that person wants you to say it. There is no other version. Telling kids to learn their "spanish" name is like asking what their "porn star" name is... it only teaches you that people will try to change you to suit their worldview. It's the same with the reporter. She needs to say the name the way the locals do because that is how it evolved. Trying to say that she's using the original pronunciation is a ridiculous excuse since language changes constantly. She might as well add a few clicks and grunts in there from our African ancestors if she wants to go that route. The more likely reason is that she in incapable of saying it properly so she falls back on her "cultural" crutch.
  11. Calling Geek Squad is the same as picking a random name out of the phone book and asking that guy for help.
  12. Is this good or bad for the environment?
  13. In 4th grade, we had an assignment translating our essay into Spanish. It included having to change our name on the top to it's Spanish equivalent. ie John=Juan, Mary=Maria, George=Jorge. I didn't understand, because I've been to Spanish-speaking countries and my name never changed, and told her so. She didn't agree with me and deducted points. Thinking back on it now, I think she was probably racist against white people. (We also said the pledge of Allegiance in Spanish...) Is it pronounced Ree-yo Grand, or RRRi-oh Grun-deh ?
  14. If all they wanted were equal rights, than civil unions would have been enough. It's moved passed that. The debate is ultimately about forcing the Church to accept the Government's decision, because it's solely about recognition at this point. They want their abnormal behavior to be treated normally; a task that will take a complete culture change over a generation (or more) of propaganda to achieve. it's akin to the "Free the Nipple" campaign.
  15. Extend Dareus before the rest of the league notices how much he's worth.
  16. We have to bomb it to see what's inside it.
  17. Historically, marriages originated with governments, not religion. The Church should stay out of Government business!
  18. It's better to give them a nuke now and keep talking, then let them sneak a nuke later and stay silent...
  19. Trade Harvin and Jackson for Kam Chancellor.
  20. Not much since he probably won't play in week 1. If he does, expect him to be targeted. He was slow, weak, and pretty much worthless this last game.
  21. Is there any liberal policy that takes reality into consideration?
  22. From the beginning, the debate on Global Warming has centered around proving it false. We basically accepted it, the second it was announced, then spent the next 30yrs trying to prove it wrong, despite it's inability to predict anything accurately. Is there any other branch of science that works this hard to prevent an honest review?
