Questions for Statists

bareboards2 says...

Is this a first? Sift of the week with zero votes?

I am pleased.

[edit] Others are less pleased. I see their point. And -- it just videos. There will be another one coming along the pike soon enough.

Rebecca Vitsmun, The Oklahoma Atheist, Tells Her Story

@SDGundamX Excellent point and personally guilty on both subjects of discourse, as I have hit numerous brick-walls and spent way too much time in my lifetime arguing semantics with both the police (who will never change) and in the realms of religion vs atheism, an equally as banal and dead-end exercise.

Oh and newt? Fuck a thesaurus and your assumptions-I have a larger vocabulary that most volumes will hold wielded like a coach gun with a hair trigger. Fuck yours and y'alls, didactic adherence to unlikely plausibles. Logic be damned, befaced as we are with the exponential rate of changes coming down the pike. Riiiight. You live in a world whose boundaries reside in logic, intelligence, reason and order. The illusion being, you haven't a clue and none of us do.

Everything we believe true is wrong, a healthy mantra.

In the realm of civility? Civility begets the same with me, uncompromising unshakeable, late-stage, hydrophobic atheists haven't discovered what that means yet.

Sébastien Loeb's Record Setting Pikes Peak Run 2013

oritteropo says...

In both cases the car is a monster Peugeot driven by a top rally driver, and each film has its own merits. What you can't compare is the times, 8m13.878s on bitumen vs 10m47.77 on dirt/gravel... except to say that each was really quick It certainly looked faster 25 years ago!

Vatanen has some interesting things to say about the earlier car, here - http://www.arivatanenrally.com/en/cars/peugeot-405-t16-pikes-peak.html

I'm sorry, this cannot be compared to Vatanen's run. You can't equate paved and gravel. Besides... ONLY 2 minutes quicker?

It's not like they had a lot of shame to begin with, but recently...

You mentioned the rather scandalous jumper remark. Between this and the food packages distributed by the Red Cross and the electricity/heating issue and the NHS/Lewisham proceedings and the privatisation of the Royal Mail for a pittance and the housing situation in the greater London area, I'm rather surprised you haven't paraded Dave's head around on a pike just yet.

Today's Guardian had a few pieces about cold food, damp homes, freezing pensioners and overcrowded food banks -- it was as depressing as it was infuriating.

The establisment has always been out of sync with what most people perceive to be reality, but Dave and his buddies seem to have cut all ties to the rest of the country.

Okay, I'm up to speed. This doesn't surprise me in the slightest. They're in the middle of rushing through the gagging laws which would effectively stop activists and protests. They have stopped all but a very few cases of legal aid, so if you're poor you're not now entitled to justice. Cameron and co. told people last week if they're truly faced with putting food on the table or heating the house up then "Put a jumper on." And on and on and on...

They're not bothered about hiding anything anymore, that's all

Chompy the Shark

Barseps says...

On a much smaller scale..........If I had a penny for every time this was done to me by a pike when fishing for roach/chub/perch.

Also, I was live-baiting with a small trout once & it was taken by........a BIGGER trout.

If you ever wanted to see mounted Templar Knights charge across a frozen lake into a line of Novgorodian pike infantry, Alexander Nevsky is just what you're looking for.

It might also be the cheesiest thing you've ever seen.

Eric Winston Tears into Fans Who Cheered Quarterbacks Injury

bareboards2 says...

OH! Now I understand!

Of course, you are exactly correct!

Thanks.

@Yogi, sure.
But what you just said is different than DEFENDING the cheers.
I'll say it again. I grew up in a age when the stadium would go SILENT in the face of human injury.
We are devolving.

The Baying Mob pays his salary, if they wanted to kill him and put his head on a pike out in front of the Stadium I say they have a right to do it. This is America Goddammit! Your life has NO VALUE!!

Police Militarization in Anaheim, CA

I'm not sure whether I should upvote for awareness or downvote the conduct of the officers...
I keep arguing that all people who are in marches should have their placards on, at least, 7 foot poles with a sharp point. So they bring in the horses or do cavalry charges? Say hello to my pike wall and enjoy sticking around.

Yeah, that's a sensible solution that won't have any negative consequences.


Killing horses isn't the same as killing humans. For one thing, horses stop.
