    Sexting. What's your opinion on it?

    Personally I think the act a bit stupid... but people like porn and easily accessible porn of your significant other is even better. Currently the device to obtain, deliver, and store it from on the go is the cell phone... so... eh As for prosecuting charges against it, I call bullshit on...

    The "Yep. I'm definitely going to Hell" moment.

    Heh, mine was when this kid at my school died in a car accident. At first I didn't really care. I didn't know him, he seemed to have been part of a group I didn't particularly like anyway, ect. Then it later turned out I did know him. I had even liked him, and could have been friends if our...

    Scientists Debate Magical DNA Teleportation

    Well... now I'm slightly pissed. Not at you mind you. You bring up good points. I am pissed that things like acupuncture, which have some pretty interesting and remarkable, if inconsistent, results behind them are being associated with homeopathy, which /never/ performs better than placebo...

    Scientists Debate Magical DNA Teleportation

    This... sounds very much like the absolute crap that homeopathy is supposed to be based on. That water can 'remember' stuff that was put in it, from which they can then sell pills that don't actually have /any/ active ingredients in them and claim that it's functional medicine. Homeopathy has...

    Poll: Is the meaning of existence relative?

    What exactly do you mean by the 'nature of the universe? We understand quite a bit about it. Definately not all, almost as definately not most, and in all likely hood, we only know the beginnings of its workings. And yet, we know enough to have stepped off our world, we can fly, we can build...

    Child suspended for his religious beliefs

    Someone should go to his school wearing a full burka (or whatever those personal prison outfits Muslim women are forced to wear are called) and see what happens. If they can get away with it, they should come the next day in the same outfit with a fake gun hidden inside it, and then show it to...

    Believers in the Old Priciples

    Rugged individualism, yes. I'd also put in a damned fine work ethic that seems to be seriously lacking these days. But doing something different and better, not really. In fact, America is arguably in its current slump because we didn't push for doing things different and better. After The...

    Believers in the Old Priciples

    KingPic - on this single comment of yours, "3. L:Why should laws not be in super fine print, span an insane number of pages, and be exploited in a great number of ways?" Look at any RPG book for a game that tries to take itself seriously. Every single time such books try to make simple, flat...

    Believers in the Old Priciples

    Values of the American forefathers had absolutely nothing to do with America becomming the super-power it was through most of the last half of the 20th century. WW2 devastated the majority of the world's manufacturing ability. The only first world nation that had virtually untouched...

    Judge wants ban on strange names

    I've heard enough stupid names my life from my mother, who is a teacher typically brings home a new batch every year, that I have to say I agree with the judge.... to a point. I mean... seriously. The little girl U2 (spelled just like that) and the other poor spanish girl who's mother named...

    My friend recently admitted......

    So... he hates gay people. Big whoop. It's not like he's alone in this, nor does it make him a bad person. I happen to hate skaters. My sister hates spiders. My mother hates her father. People most always hate something. It's how they act upon that hate which determines if they're bad or...

    Poll: Israel: Is it's existence justified?

    Should the Jew's have had a place to go lick their wounds and rebuild their society after WW2? Yes. Was the current location more or less the epitome of stupid places to put them? Yes. Now that said, It wasn't chosen entirely without thought. Technically, no one owned the land. It's...

    Do you like anime? Write for The Escapist!

    *crosses fingers* Stupid internet finally returns just a bit late after a week of being out. Here's hoping I got it in fast enough and... that's an impressive collection. I look forward to getting to set mine up like that one day ^_^ Right now... it's crammed into about 6 crates of DVDs...

    Poll: Vigilantism: The good? Or the bad?

    Vigilantism (sp?) as presented in comics and movies is pretty stupid when applied to the real world as most of us seem to agree. That said, if some rich ass hat got away with running my kid down with a car while drunk and joyriding on the grounds he's a rich ass hat, I suspect I'd be...

    Worst Anime You've Ever Seen?

    Okay, I might have missed a few posts agreeing with me and my choices, but seriously, ha no one here seen "Plastic Little" or "They were Eleven"? Also, while I'm not surprised to see most everyone screaming at the new anime, or the popular ones, I'm something of a sadist and like bringing...
