We've been at war continuously for the last 20 years, actually. That's not an exaggeration, it's a literal fact about the way post-9/11 America structured the powers of the presidency to declare and then just maintain a state of war.

Not far enough though

Do you go into airports and announce your departure? Or are you an airplane?

Am I wrong in thinking the original tweet was a joke? Adding the mac speech bubble is just saying "no, fuck your joke, this is my joke now"

What a lazy fucking response by this dumbshit. Just an absolute spacetime-warping black hole of creativity, sucking in everything clever and good around him and allowing nothing back out past the event horizon of his ineptitude.

Muslims and Mormons have similar strictures around caffeine.

For me it was the yoga. I'll bet modern Islam doesn't have much of a reaction to it. In US religions. yoga is in the category of "things foreigners do" and is therefore of the devil.

It isn't "objectively harmful" any more than playing beach volleyball in the sun is "objectively harmful". You can do it responsibly, protect yourself, limit your exposure. And when you do, you can enjoy yourself, which is the opposite of harm. Just because alcohol can be abused doesn't mean it must be. Most people who partake of alcohol enjoy the net good of its benefits. Most people do not become alcoholics, most people do not die of cirrhosis, most people do not die of liver cancer.

This last part is actually true of all drugs: the most fantastically addictive substances on earth, like meth and heroin, still have more casual users than addicts.

So, Mormon or Muslim? I'm betting Mormon.

Of course you understand some dog barks, you just don't think about it because humans process language innately, we have specialized brain structures for it.

I'll bet you can recognize "I see a threat" and 'I'm in pain" when you hear them. Maybe even distinguish them from "happy excitement"

and i figured you'd read what i actually wrote instead of arguing with someone who didn't exist

Yes, I know all that. The argument I was replying to was that you run out of trees if you use them to make paper without recycling. That argument is false. You're arguing with points I didn't make.
