Haha, I remember when I was in second grade I had a boombox and probably a Vanilla Ice or Michael Jackson tape on hand. But, I wanted an extension cord so I could have the boombox on the otherside of the room, so I grabbed some wire stuck in one end of the power cord for the boombox and then plugged the cord in the wall. Fireballs. Fucking FIREBALLS. It was awesome. I'll never do it again.

I remember standing in front of an electrical outlet when I was about 3-4 with a fork, thinking man, I'm so tempted to see what would happen if I poke this fork into these little holes.
Ahh, the good old days, before it became politically correct to safe'ify one's house for the chillun's.

Would be better if I could actually read the directions... how many cups of beets? How many cups of flour? Squiggle cups?

And 1 tablespoon of vanilla what? Essence? Extract? They're different things people!

And does my egg need to have a flower on the side? Because most of mine just have a bit of chicken poo still on them.

@shagen454
i dont know where you were on the east coast but when i lived in brooklyn, walmart was trying to get in and the community came out everytime to protest.outback made it in and closed within a year because NO ONE went out to eat there.
i loved that about brooklyn.
you didnt go to some chain supermarket for your meats,you went to frank and sals.
you got the best bagels from the corner bakery (forgot the name) or if you wanted homemade tiramsau at 4am you headed to ferreros.
all family run businesses spent the money they made right back in to the community,unlike a corporate chain.

and for those talking about corporations and how great their service is?
pffft (fart noise)
heres a story for you kids concerning the altruism of corporations:
in the 90's there were hundreds of family produce businesses catering to local resturaunts.
nobody would buy from sysco(one the largest rest. supplier).so sysco got together with such companies as allied and usfoods and they literally cut their produce by half.
they sandbagged every family operation.
so when you had the price of a case of lettuce at 10-12 bucks from the family,sysco could get it for you for 6-7 bucks.
that was too sweet a deal for the local eateries and within a year those family businesses were DONE.
and lo and behold that 12$ case of lettuce jumped to 35$ when those families were no longer in the competition.
which of course affected everything from prices to quality.
the corporation has the resources and political might to crush any family run business which leaves us all with the tired vanilla cookie cutter sameness and a lame landscape of chain stores and strip malls.an un-originality that drains the soul and sucks all the color out of any kind of uniqueness that once was the family run business.
most people dont even notice until they find their neighborhood unrecognizable.
people never notice until it directly affects them and THEIR tiny little bubble of existence and THEN it becomes a federal case of persecution.

cry me a river you self-centered twat.

I believe god has a chocolaty center. With crushed nuts. And another layer of chocolate on top of the nuts. Then it's dipped in melted vanilla ice cream, flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and then covered in a delicate layer of fresh monkey cum. Add a third layer of chocolate on top of that, some nuggat-clusters, caramel and a final layer of thick chocolate. Yummy! That's god to me.

God has revealed itself to me through your gospel: I AM CONVERT!
edit: wait a second... "fresh monkey cum"? You mean lezhog juice, right?
Oh my God, SCHISM!

DIE HERETIC!!!!!!

Well, I watched the whole thing.

It's official. I am vanilla in a world where others are paisley.

What the holy heck was that/??!!!??

so i had this long and obtuse rant ready to rock-n-roll and then i realized that i didnt care.

HEY CHOGGIE!
/waves


ah..
who am i kidding?
this ball-infested circle-jerk is waaay too much fun to ignore.
now the topic i really dont give two shits about.
why?
because by these comments it appears that some people have taken their crystal ball out and peered into their fellow sifters gooey parts and discerned their intentions.
really?
THATS the ruler you are going to use to understand and comprehend another?
well then call me schizophrenic because that is just the most intellectually lame thing i have ever heard.
how about this different and radical approach when confronted with a comment or post you may not fully understand.
ask the poster what they meant by it.
i KNOW...crazy huh?
because i see a LOT of assumptions about fellow sifters here on this thread.representing a microcosm of presumption which i see all the time here.
and this presumption is based on WHAT..exactly?
posts?comments?
lame lame lame.
in particular i refer to the comments towards qwiz.do you know qwiz?or are you basing your perceptions solely on his snarky (and mysoginist) comments?

many different voices have left the sift or receded to their "quiet place" because of this intellectually stunted practice.
why?
because group-think has slowly drained these people of any desire to share or to even offer their voices to the amalgamated conversation which is the sift.
so what was once a vibrant and often chaotic discourse has become a much more vanilla-pastuerized-bland cookie with little or no flavor and the crunch has become a flaccid, milky piece of toast.

and no offense BB but this thread is about as civil disobedient as pulling the tags off your pillow.


now pass the popcorn @rottenseed

I never understood why some people had problems understanding Inception. Still I agree that it is a clever way of showing how simple the structure of the plot is.


I think you have different groups of people not understanding it or uinderstanding it for different reasoins and then they all got mixed to gether and people started saying ITS A COMPLICATED FILM , when realy its not a complex film .


the film does suffer from terrible dialog and completely mashed up editing ( arguably the editing is to convey the nature of the dreams) the film also brakes the a rule it makes up and draws attention to ( the been knocked and woken up from a jolt)

Personally i don't think its a "bad" film i just didn't enjoy it at all , The main character played by Leonardo decapreo was a total selfish prick and i think with all the stuff about him and his wife and kids you are ment to identify and ruite for him in some way , but i thought he was a tosser so had no stake in what happend to him or his retarded love.

I can see how his romance and the story of him and his wife ties into the dreem aspect and the stuff of maby he is still in a dreem and she was trying to save him but i just didn't care.

Not that this film is like the matrix , but when u have a film thats premise is more philosophical or abstract than your standard film then you need strong characters and strong doilog to keep it interesting.

also to me all the special effects scenes felt realy canned/contrived and totaly broke the emersoin of the film for me. where as again in matrix 1 i didn't feal like i was watching a demo real for a car advertising company. ( again im not saying this film was like or shud have been like matrix 1)

The film is one big waisted potential if u took the inception idea had better plot and matue philosophical doilog it would have been way better.

im onyl bitter because i normaly like this sort of film , waking life ( i think thats its name) matrix , Existanze , cube .

come to think of it its like vanilla sky where it could have been good but was ruined by plot elements and annoying characters and bad script.

So, do you prefer cuttlefish & asparagus or vanilla paste?

(I give this embed less than 12h before it will be taken down, but fuck it, it's funny while it lasts)

There is a finite number of true things and an infinite number of false things you can say about the universe. Therefore any statement you make without evidence is infinitely more likely to fall into the infinite false category than it is to fall into the limited true category.

As a statistician, I can with no malice inform you that the above statement is incorrect. Statistics does not presume to arrive at definitive conclusions. Statistics merely comment on probabilities in relation to the reliability and repeatability of a particular population of observations.

If there are an infinite number of false statements, and an infinite number of true statements, then the probability that is most likely is that any statement a person makes is likely to be both true and false relative to context.

I don't always agree with Teller. His logic is a bit haphazard. However, he does at least try to approach things fairly, and I respect that. Religion by its very definition is not a matter of physical observation. It is a matter of personal faith. As such, it is a qualitative observation rather than a quantitative. Attepting to cast the discusion in terms of 'proof' or 'statistics' is meaningless.

Many atheists/agnostics refuse to discuss religion unless it is confined to terms of experimental scientific methodology. Such an approach is futile. Discussing issues of faith using such limited terminology is like trying to discuss 'flavors' with someone who has no taste buds. There is no way you can wrap up and quantify the flavor "Vanilla" so as to make a man without taste understand it. With such a limited capacity for input the best you can do is give a soul-less, heartless, vague skeleton of the experience.

4 tablespoons flour

4 tablespoons sugar

1 heaped tablespoon cocoa powder

3 tablespoons milk

3 tablespoons oil

2 tablespoons of whisked egg

A splash of vanilla

Chocolate chips to taste



It's breakfast time here, but chocolate cakes is looking like a great breakfast food at the moment!

Holy crap. And I thought rap music sampling songs was bad...at least they give props to the original artists.

(Vanilla Ice <---- I said rap artists)
