I have personally known several really bad police officers. But most of them are good and more importantly (and sadly for them), keeping the dirty underside of the world from getting on the clean upper-side. Sometimes that dirtiness sticks to them. It's a hard ****ty job a police officer has. Treat them all better than good and with respect and they will in all likelihood reciprocate. Here's the video he mentions: Police arrested some woman with big breasts (fully clothed) and took a picture of it. I am sure they all got in trouble, as they should, and somehow, life went on.

This should be merged with the Tom vs. DeDouche thread. Double down on suckiness.

They are coming for you.

I have something in my third eye.

Your straw man needs air. That's absurd.

My DNA warps when I come to Rkfast's defense but you're wrong. Almost everyone has a natural bias to favor people like them. That's why most people are friends with, hang out with, live near--people who are like them. Old people don't hang out with 18 year olds because both groups have a bias. That's natural across many demographics. It doesn't mean that those like groups of people get together and decide to lynch and hurt the other groups. People who do that are the jerkoffs.

So wait....there are still racists? HOLY **** THAT'S AMAZING!

Don't be so selfish. Share the pain. The joke's not on you. It's on US. That's what makes Bills fans great.

Nice act from a guy [edit: Louis CK] on Conan about how people don't appreciate the wonder of technology.

Short version. http://www.jcu.edu/philosophy/gensler/RE/R-B2--00.HTM

The 5 proofs, Aristotelian or Aquinas, are not "proofs of the existence of god" except to someone who's a believer. They are proofs that there are certain questions for which we do not know an answer. The believer finds the answer to be god--a leap of faith. The non-believer or reasoned person says something like "I don't know what the first cause is. And that's what I know."

As imperfect as they are, the huge majority of Americans who qualify as obese in a BMI calculator are not ripped musclebound athletes, but are in fact fat lazy !@#$s. BMI serves its purpose in letting doctors show a fat person that they are fat using some objective measure.

BMI is highly imperfect but if that's the measure one company uses, sign me up. NFL players won't be allowed in the plan but that's life. Other companies can use other obesity measures. It's nice to have choices. We have the best doctors. We have the best medicines. We have the best hospitals. Why are Americans not as healthy as many other countries? Not because we lack a public universal healthcare option. But because of choices, one of which is that Americans eat too much and exercise too little.

Allegedly

The weak dollar is the combined work of Bush and Obama. Dumbass mother!@#$ers. Neither one saw or sees the serious issues that a weak dollar causes. But they will love touting the shrinking trade deficit.

STFU or they will hear you.

Really. Good god, who hasn't had 1000 variants of this. Living with it, dealing with it, and hating at least some of your roommates is part of the college process. If you don't like your roommates, you need to make enough money to live alone. Even the roommates you choose can suck ass. I roomed with great friends for a couple years and we had our brawls too. We're still friends but living with poor selfish kids just out of their homes blows.

Gold up, DJIA up...just a matter of time. What if the 3500/15000 is the first thing he gets right?

I so love their opposition. They hate others when they have golden eggs but when their little pile of riches is threatened, time to get riled up. You'll note that some proposals exempted union plans from the tax. That will probably find its way back into the final bill.

First, I only tolerate you at a distance through this computer. That's my compassion to you. Second, I understand that your insurance frustration is born of your firing followed by COBRA not supporting you because of your gross misconduct on the job. Sounds sensible to me. Third, those people were denied additional coverage by a single company. BFD. There are a rainbow of insurers to choose and they'll pick another. Fourth, if I get denied coverage, I'll have to deal with it, just like everyone else who gets denied. Figth Latrell, I've posted in your dumb Lance Armstrong thread about all the things that could help fix the system so don't say I don't care about the plight of others. You have insurance yet? If not, why not?

Yes, yes you are. You said the swine flu was peaking on Septamber 1 but somehow we made it to this point without your "little timeout." BTW, why couldn't you have been right about missing part of the Bills season due to [insert whatever catastophy is the hot topic in your bunker now] this year? I wouldn't mind taking a "time out" at this point. Keep up the good work man. You will get a prediction right one of these years.

Sorry to bring you into things again GG but the Dow crossed 10000, not that Dwight will admit he was wrong for either the 8200 prediction, the 10000 prediction, the 200 day moving average prediction, and on and on.
