           \_ He used to work for PacBell, but hasn't in 10 years or more.

4/26    Funniest thing, but coke seems to have come back to the bay area
        in a big way.  The most amusing thing about it is the new mixer
        that people are doing - lines of 1/2 coke, 1/2 gunpowder.
        Apparently  it is harder to get the gunpowder than the coke in SF.
        Discuss how banning gunshops now lets people fetishize gunpowder.
        \_ Doesn't that have a name?
           \_ See "Lord of War" starring Nick Cage.
        \_ I haven't noticed. Everyone I know smokes dope and the etards
           do ecstacy. Where I live I see mostly crack heads. Where is
           all the coke? -- LA expat

3/29    Isn't it funny that many hispanics decided to switch and vote for
        the GOP and now the GOP is dissing them?
        \_ Because all hispanics are in favor of open borders by virtue
           of their ethnicity?  Isn't it funny how many people can hold
           incredibly racist beliefs and not even see it while at the
           same time pointing the same fat finger at others?

                 \_ Doesn't a joke have to be funny..or at least amusing to
                    qualify as a joke?
                 \_ No I didn't miss the "joke"
                    \_ You missed the mockery of the inane motd questions
                       like the one below.  BTW, the "green pants" post is
                       in the smae vein.  If you are too stupid to get a joke
                       or allusion, it's may not be funny or subtle to you
                       but it is still a joke and you are still a loser.

3/20    Anyone remember that old comic from Dragon, Yamara?  "More weird than
        funny" indeed.
        http://yamara.com/yamara/index.php
        \_ "Wormy" was a lot weirder.
           \_ Eh, Wormy wasn't that weird -- it was pretty straightforward
              semi-narrative fantasy.  What made it quirky was the use of
              traditional badguys as the protagonists.  Now, Roman Dirge's
              stuff, or perhaps Jhonen Vazquez's JTHM  *that*  is weird. -mice
              \_ Maybe so, but Yamara was trying to be funny.
                 \_ Yeahhh...the art style on the first page of the Yamara link
                    kind of squicked me out, so I'll take your word for it.
                    Wormy was generally pretty pleasing to the eye
                    (comparatively, at least).                           -mice
                    \_ Yeah, Yamara's art  got more and more busy as time went
                       on. It started out ok, but was pretty much unreadable
                       near the end.  They were just trying to stuff way too
                       much into a few panels.
                       \_ I've been told that Sluggy Freelance is kind of
                          moving in that direction.  I stopped reading it
                          regularly after I was laid off in '01, but people
                          have been telling me that it's gotten progressively
                          busier and takes more work to read.  Oh well.  -mice
                          \_ Ah, but the payoff is richer. The "That Which
                             Redeems" story-arc won awards for the payoff.
                             Cf. Achewood. --erikred
                             \_ Is it?  I mean, I'd be willing to put up
                                with more text etc if the payoff is there,
                                but I've heard for current Sluggy, it's
                                not.  I never quite forgave sluggy for
                                giving the DoP to that Bruno the Bandit guy
                                and his endless stream of scatological
                                humor.                                   -mice
                                \_ I repeat, the "That Which Redeems" arc
                                   was worth it. The "Timeless Seas" arc, well,
                                   not so sure about that one. And yeah, the
                                   DoP guy was definitely Not Funny. They have
                                   a Saturday guy now who's actually funny and
                                   very obviously a fan of the comic. --e-red
                                   \_ Hmm, okay.  I guess I'll give it a try
                                      and see how the 'Elevator to Hell' arc
                                      reads.  Hopefully is doesn't suck.
                                      Thanks for the info!               -mice

3/16    Our great leader getting ready to RIDE BIKE
        http://photos1.blogger.com/hello/187/1525/320/belly4.jpg
        \_ As an American, I was pretty dissapointed with my two choices in the
           2004 election...but as a cyclist, I was damn happy with both
           choices.
        \_ I don't get it.
           \_ Is it the pink socks?  Is it the balding guy checking his gut
              behind him?  It just doesn't scream "presidential".
              \_ That's your it?  He doesn't look "presidential" when he's
                 exercising?  Heaven forbid!  (Honestly, I'd be pretty
                 happy if he ever looked presidential.)
                 \_ It's humour, not some slashing criticism... chill.  if
                    you don't find it funny, watch some dennis miller...
                    It's a lot funnier than Ann Coulter's "jokes" about
                    killing supreme court justices.
                    \_ yeah but short skirts and long legs... mmmm.
                       \_ If the skirts are short enough, you might be able
                          to catch a glimpse of her dick.
                    \_ I loved the thread about how that was ok because
                       "Democrats are always threathening to kill the president"
                       "Democrats are always threathening to kill the
                        president"
                       (no examples given)
              \_ The guy behind him is putting on a chest strap transmitter
                 for a heart rate monitor, not "checking his gut".
                 \_ Again, seriously, it's simply amusing.  Overanalyizing is
                    stupid.

3/9     So I've now seen two wonderful movies with disappointing endings in one
        week: Corpse Bride and Howl's Moving Castle.  How can they put so much
        work into having such beautiful movies, then so obviously blow the
        endings?  Bah, I say!
        \_ you got sucked into watching it and paid the same amount of money
           had the ending been better. So, u=teh suxor.
           \_ Eh, they were still worth the ~ $1.07 I pay per movie on the
              2-at-a-time Netflix plan.  What frustrates me is that they were
              so good...until the endings.
        \_ just like War of the Worlds?
           \_ Yeah, I gave that one some slack for being based on a book,
              though I guess Howl's was too.
                             \- "I saw the best movies of my generation

                                   why)
                                   \_ Clearly you don't get the reference.
                                   \_ I hate the beats, but you make me sad.
                                      google for "ginsberg" and "howl"
                                      \_ Hah, never knew that.  I never thought
                                         to see where the TMBG lyrics came
                                         from.
                                   \_ The MOTD makes the baby Cassady cry.

        \_ How would you have like Corpse Bride to end?  I thought it
           was a normal, predictable ending.
           \_ Exactly!  It didn't fit the movie at all!

        \_ Thank God for creating cute Asian girls. Now I need to go to
           the bathroom to relieve myself.
           \_ It wasn't God, it was evolution!

           \_ She could've been green for all I care. By the way, what
              was the commercial about? ;) (Maybe not *too* good marketing.)
              \_ "She couldn've been been green..." meaning you find her
                 unattractive? Or you don't care about looks?
              \_ Chocolate candy, FWIW. I wonder if there is anything one
                 cannot successfully sell with boobs.
                 \_ Anyone happen to know Japanese?  What did she say after
                    she looked down?
                 \_ I think having boobs upstage your product is not
                    such a good thing. What did you say the commercial
                    was about again?

                 you ever know what they're actually for?
           \_ Cute Japanes girls to be specific.  In other Asian countries it
              would be politically incorrect and frowned upon by flat-chested

           You can buy JPop albums from the music store for ~Y2000 but in the
           US, you might pay $50-80 for an import through Amazon. Search

3/1     Why do people say 'rate of speed?' -- ilyas
        \_ Speed is d(distance)/dt.  Rate of speed is a specific, determinant
           value.  It's legalese.  It has to be that accurate.
           \_ Ok, 'rate' is used to mean 'measure,' rather than
              'rate of change.'  That makes sense.  That's unfortunately
              ambiguous though, and it always sounded jarring to me. -- ilyas
              \_ it's funny and redundant because speed already means
                 rate of change of position to you.  distiniguish it from
                 rate of inflation, rate of decline, etc. and realize
                 some yokels said rate of speed instead of rate of movement.
                 not any more silly than "ATM machine" etc.
        \_ What's wrong with the term "rate of speed"? Ever heard of
           dv/dt?
        \_ It has more syllables.  If you want a serious answer, that's probably\
           the real reason.  Same with "nukular"--some people just like to add
           \_ People don't use it to mean dv/dt. -- ilyas
           \_ People don't use it to mean dv/dt.  Also, you know, I don't

           \_ I believe the word you're looking for is "prig."
           \_ But this is neither a typo nor a grammar problem.
              \_ Because most people are kind of confused about the
                 difference between movement, speed and accelaration.
        \_ hey I got a great idea, how about sharing an MP3 of your voice.

           That and maybe proper grooming will definitely help you get more
           chicks.
        \_ Because language works and evolves in ways that my not be
           completely "logical". Think about expressions like "cheap at
           half the price", or words like "orthogonal", which gets used
           metaphorically, or "finite" which some people use to mean
           greater than zero. For that matter, think about things like
           the negation in Russian "ja nikogda ne...". However, amazingly
           enough, we still manager to seem to be able to understand
           each other.
           \_ But "rate of speed" is logical.  It's legalese.  One could argue
              that their speed was the distance traveled over the time it took.
              If they were going 100 mph, then got caught in bumper-to-bumper,
              they could say they weren't "speeding" because they averaged
              40mph.  Rate of speed pins it down.

           the assumptions implicit in your question:
           http://www.townhall.com/columnists/georgewill/gw20050106.shtml
           \_ Einstein meant he wasn't an atheist in the crusading sense, but
              he was an atheist in the essential, didn't believe in God sense:
              "From the viewpoint of a Jesuit priest I am, of course, and
              have always been an atheist ... I have repeatedly said that in
              my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one. You
              may call me an agnostic, but I do not share the crusading
              spirit of the professional atheist whose fervor is mostly due
              to a painful act of liberation from the fetters of religious
              indoctrination received in youth. I prefer an attitude of
              humility corresponding to the weakness of our intellectual
              understanding of nature and of our being."
              "It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious
              convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do
              not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but
              have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be
              called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the
              structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it."
              \_ Einstein is going to hell!                     -Christian
        \_ People are dumb, they believe all sorts of weird crap. Even on
           the MOTD, Berkeley, etc. I've encountered people who believe
           that evolution isn't a proven theory, or that quantum mechanics
           is wrong, or that classical mechanics is wrong and therefore
           invalid, or that a so-called "red state" is completely republican
           or a so-called "blue state" is completely democratic, or that
           tsunamis shouldn't cause deaths because people should be able
           to swim out of it, etc. etc. Trying to convince them otherwise
           is just a futile exercise in frustration because after a certain
           age people's minds just calcify. I mean, if you think about it
           seriously, doesn't the concept of a guy who can tell what's going
           on 24/7 on a planet with over six billion people seem a bit
           ridiculous? Or the fact that a bunch of migrant Jews would know
           better than anyone else that their version of god is the true
           version vs. all the others? If you think about it, it's somewhat
           ironic that a minor cultish sect of judaism took over the
           Western world. I bet if you were living back then in Roman times
           you'd bet the farm that we'd all still be praying to Jupiter in
           the next couple of milleniums. Of course, if you were talking to
           a Born Again Christian they'd say it proves their faith. What
           it really proves is that you can fool a lot of people a lot of
           the time, and we as a human species like to be fooled a lot.
           \_ See, I am not religious but I have a lot of problems with
              evolution.  For one thing, some evolution 'defenders' (it's very
              odd that a theory would need defenders in the first place) have
              taken on decidedly militant tones lately.  It's very misleading
              to talk about evolution as a 'proven theory,' firstly because
              evolution is an empirical claim and as such isn't something you
              prove, and secondly because there is no single 'theory of
              evolution.'  The theory, like many mature theories, undergone
              evolution.'  The theory, like many mature theories, has undergone
              several revisions because it disagreed with the data, and as
              such had to be fixed.  Evolution as a theory has a lot of problems
              that need fixing.  I wish people would stop wasting time with
              the fundies, and similarly stopped treating evolution itself in a
              fundy way, and started fixing problems with it.  Or finding new
              ways to hunt fossils.  On a related topic, I am very interested
              in the current state of the art on the origins of life question,
              which is the big unsolved gorilla you need to tackle if you
              accept the 'western secular' interpretation of life.  I would
              also like to add my extreme scepticism towards current
              explanations for certain events in the Earth's past, like the
              advent of multicellularity, and the Cambrian explosion. -- ilyas

                                      are basing a huge set of beliefs on the
                                      mere assertion of one man. I find that
                                      to be ridiculous. And absurd that God
                                      would operate in such a feeble fashion.

                                      goes for Christ, at least the claim there

           atheist conservatives.  2.  You cannot reason with religious people
           about their religion, especially if it's Christianity/Islam/
           Mormonism, etc., religions that say "This is the way the Universe
           works exactly even if your own eyes say otherwise", as opposed to
           other religions that don't try to tell you exactly how the Universe
           works but just try to give people a moral framework and some
           philosophical insight.  Like Governor Jesse Ventura said, religion
           is mostly for people who cannot deal with the philosophical
           implications of what happens when you die, when did the Universe
           begin/was it always here/how will it end, etc.  If you cannot
           figure it out yourself, life becomes hard because it makes reality
           harder to cope with.  So you turn to religion to give you answers.
           Or, you've been brought up with it or your country/community
           encourages/forces it.
           But trying to "reason" with religious people is hopeless since they
           have already accepted conflicting information in order to gain the
           above answers to the difficult questions of life, even if it does
           seem silly to some to base your understanding of reality on texts
           writting 2000+ years ago.  Would you trust a surgeon from 2000 years
           ago to operate on you?
