Figure out a way to throw a virtual tantrum: think dupe accounts and lots of Goatse

"On to the good stuff. Governments don't need to be controlled, but any objective look at history shows that governments will eventually start exploiting their people" I'd say that a truly objective view on history probably wouldn't make moral judgements such as what constitutes exploitation...

Who will watch the watchers? I think that this statement in this context implies a certain amount of fear or resentment towards the government. I don't mean to leave the impression that I think governments are to be trusted because they are governments, but at the same time, realistically...

I think that the word liberal is misused criminally in the United States. Meanwhile in the commonwealth it is usually only used as an alternative to "Social Democrat" and "Conservative." This bothers me because I am a liberal, I believe that the only guiding principle behind any law is to...

Went to work, then this: Then watched Raiders of the Lost Ark, ate some Easter chocolate, ordered my mom a subscription to a magazine for tomorrow (today I guess for the pedantic) watched the new videos on Cinamassacre, caught up on zero punctuation and posted this.

We've lost just over a hundred, Princess Patricia's Light Infantry, the Royal Van Doos and I think a couple others cycle in and out relieving each other

I always find it funny how Canadians just want to be mentioned. (I'm Canadian by the way) Seriously, look at how many Canadian threads there are in this forum alone, usually started by Canadians wanting Americans to affirm their need to matter. If you watch American TV with any...

It all depends on where you plan on moving to. Unless you speak French, don't EVER move to Quebec, their government (less so now with Charest) actively tries to make the province 100% unilingual Francophones. Toronto, forget about it, you might as well stay where you are, it's violent and...

Yes... and I feel alienated by Nintendo.

I think we need to start the process now, get the infrastructure and technological base down pat, and then, in 200+ years when we can finally pull it off, we'll be ready for when it will matter/be feasible. I wouldn't want to live off Earth though, my family's here, my roots are here, and I...

I live in Ottawa, Ontario (...Canada) and I've been to the States a few times. My impression is that it's not a terrible place, there's certainly worse, but you're all too god damn proud to fix the problems you have. Saying something is wrong with America is the first step in fixing the...
