I don't think any priests aren't busting their nuts. Let's be real.

I have no idea what faith you are. If you're Christian, that's a hoot seeing as your racism is solidly unChristlike. BTW, request denied.

Takes one to know one?

Consider the additional psychological scarring that comes with being a paragon of godly virtue (a priest) in an organization that considers your sexual proclivities abhorrent. Yeah, that will draw in and create healthy people. And it's those people that are tasked with guiding the rest of the flock. What a cluster!@#$!

The long-buried topic is that men who are willing to give up their sexual identity are unwell. Not all are child rapists but the majority have serious psychological defects and the rest are just a mess.

Your anti-black campaign is Christlike. Keep up the good work Jesus.

Too lazy to Google it but there's an article out there that tracked his recommendations and showed how awful his picks are.

I'll give you this Wisc: No one has ever been as universally disliked on this board as you. Even conner has pbills and Pasta Joe.

Why are serial killers crackers?

I get this criticism. The problem with the Aries program (as I understand it) is several-fold. First, We've been to the Moon. It's not particularly interesting. I mean, I'd love to go but as a destination worthy of a national space program, there's not much value in it. Second, the Aries program was way behind and not going well so why continue to pour money down that hole? Going to Mars and returning by 2030 is not outrageous. Landing a man and returning would be (with current technologies). It's not inconceivable to orbit a man around Mars and return him by 2030...though it sure would be hard. And that would be an amazing accomplishment.

Since the airlock was in a spaceship, it's really limited. But of course he doesn't like Tom--he sensed Tom's Afrikaans blood.

Verbous is a word meaning you're in love with your own voice. Over- is a prefix that augments verbous to mean you are so in love with your own voice that you would toss its salad. -ly makes the word an adverb. Those are my lexicographical skills at work. You can keep posting your Kaczynski manifestos...I'll keep reading the topic sentences.

And to reiterate my first post: WHO CARES?

In other news, grass is green.

You are well beneath a crusade. You're just a moran.

Actually, the thing that he said will happen in his lifetime is not a man landing on Mars but putting a man in orbit around Mars and returning him to earth. That could happen. And landing someone on Mars could probably happen too. Getting him back from the surface of Mars seems unlikely in any of our lives without a technological jump none of us can foresee. Gravity is a B word.

And so?

And this is why I keep wishing SDS would create a pinned Stupidity Vortex thread.

Those hoho/Dorito/sausage fingers can snap like a MFer. The parental figure walking by in the background in underwear and a Tshirt completes the picture though. I find disturbing on par with the worst media story of 2009 besides Exxon's tax bill.

I'm neutral on this. I cannot be bothered to care about Exxon's tax bill for 2009 and I am equally sure that conner is wrong on general principle. Proving conner wrong every time he speaks requires a Herculean effort I can't muster. I am happier that we tackle the job as a village.

How I picture the family, complete with T-shirt and underwear wearing parents. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KmPBCSbRgY Just a feeling but I don't think that's going to be the last banana he gets close to.

From the same story, now revised, what Exxon says.

Right? Christmas celebrates the birth of Santa Claus AKA Saint Nick and HE'S the one saying it's a Pagan holiday. Moran.

We only celebrate the Pagan stuff. Tree, decorations. My daughter is hip to Santa (we never lied about it) but we still talk about him. That and family traditions and whatnot. We did carol and sang some of the Christian Standards (Silent Night, etc.) last year. Also put out a manger as a family tradition. Christmas for us is part of our familial heritage but not something with religious significance. Easter has no real significance except for some better candy and egg farts.

I have no problem with this. He gave 140K to taxes, which is far more to "charity" than most people. AND THAT'S THE PROBLEM.
