By rights this *femme and her band shouldn't be obscure, but that's fine with me. *quality! :



why thankies my man!
i was on the fence about putting that in the obscure channel.
but so many have no idea who garbage,or shirley manson (gasp/horror) actually are.
but my stats are anecdotal based,which is not very scientific lol.
maybe i should pull that channel tag.....

what, the roads he uses to make his business viable? you are correct.

What's even more ironic is that Anthony's assistant is most probably on the payroll of a state-run *gasp* healthcare *doublegasp!* program. He could literally not have had his business without government healthcare.

but why does your brain tell you that murder/rape is bad?

maybe because there have been plenty of death BECAUSE of religion. we've witnessed first hand the horrors of murder and rape. Eventually you develop this thing called empathy. You cease to think about only yourself and start thinking about how your actions affects others and empathize.

Basic survival also tells us not to hurt others. Sure when we were barely above the thinking capacity of animals we saw other humans as competition. Hell, part of our psyche still does. But as we, gasp, evolved, we learned that working with other people instead of competing yields better results and thus, increases odds of survival.

morality without a god. pretty simple when you start asking questions instead of blindly submitting to outdated beliefs.

Same people did the same thing when Data did the exact same thing in ST:Generations.

I'm as giddy as the next fella about, gasp, Roberts putting his stamp on this. I'm still left wondering, when did Barack lose the ability to give an inspiring speech? I mean, it happened so slowly, but over the course of 4 years he went from JFK to John Kerry.

Wonder what that sounded like in row 23?
I'm guessing it sounded like a synchronized gasp.

@shinyblurry good job googling "jesus sarcasm" and posting the first result. However, where jesus seems like he's just kind of exasperated and using sarcasm as a way to lighten up the mood of his followers, you just come off as a passive-aggressive prick.

That was off of the top of my head. You're here calling me names when the only reason you're in this thread is to take the opportunity to give me a hard time because I (gasp) made a sarcastic comment. How ridiculous, considering the things people say to me around here. Where is your outrage for that? I made a valid point, but admittedly it was based on a misunderstanding of HPQPs views.



The Lord has some better examples for you. I agree with you, that participating in controversial topics with sarcasm probably isn't going to lead to anything good for the Lord. I was just slightly incensed based on a misunderstanding I had about hpqps viewpoint. I can admit I made a mistake, and you're welcome to continue trying to capitalize on it, but it isn't going to have a very long shelf-life

"Honey," she cooed. "Were you watching porn?"
"No," he gasped. "Cantaloupe must've accidentally googled xnxx."

Once again, Bob demonstrates that he just doesn't get it...and commits another ad hom at the same time.
There is this wonderful thing called nuance. There's nothing wrong with the argument that the Constitution is a remarkable document. It was pretty freakin ground breaking for the time and still holds up on many issues even today.
But it is, still, just a document. You're kinda painting yourself into a corner when you attempt to elevate something like the Constitution or, say, the Bible to a...divine level.
Dictatorships are actually quite efficient government. Conservatives claim to love efficient government so you really shouldn't be so quick to poo poo on dictatorships. Of course, the problem with dictatorships is you can't always trust the dictator to do what you think is right. Nor is there a very good mechanism of change in dictatorships, short of changing dictators, but that usually tends to be fairly bloody.
Fortunately, the founders were smart enough to put in a mechanism that allows it to be changed. As history has shown, even the Constitution, like the Bible, got one of the simplest moral questions WRONG. Both the Constitution and the Bible are flat out wrong when it comes to the equality of its citizens. Fortunately, humans have this wonderful capability of learning things and....evolving (gasp). Even if the founders weren't smart enough to put in such a mechanism for change, guess what, change would still eventually happen, it just would have been bloodier. Hell, we STILL had a Civil War that killed a lot of people even though we had a mechanism to peacefully change our gov't. So again, the constitution means absolutely dick when enough people agree that it means absolutely dick.
Gov't back then, used to have the ability to revoke a business charter on a whim, aren't you pro-corporation types glad the Constitution isn't a static document?
I thought so.
Nuance is a wonderful thing, makes you actually think for yourself instead of blindly stumbling around, pretending that some dated document is divine, regardless of how well written it may be. Change is a bitch.


Shut up Bob was right and you are a bastard.
