the comment is more applicable to the poll than to worthless. but worthless is trying so hard to use proper grammar, it ruins the effect. edit: rumours? are you joking? at least forge some do!@#$%^&*ents before trying to make a claim like that.

I thought the oklahoma (sp?) bombing ended up being done by a lifelong american citizen? nothing else to add... monte says it all edit: would be easier to take the poll and mr. worthless seriously if they'd spell things properly (it spells Iraq Irak...)

quick thought: you are both making too much of ducky's comparison of human tissue to mold/dog/ape tissua and are also willfully taking it incorrectly. it was clear to me from the get go that he believes there is little difference between a freshly created possible-future-human, and a freshly created possible-future-mold. im no biologist but i'd hazard a guess at saying that a dead mold cell and dead human skin cell aren't *that* different. the difference will be in the specialization that the skin cell has - tautness, sensitivity, insulation... whatever. i'd further guess that since the tissue - as i agree also with ducky on this point - of a possible-future-human hasn't yet developed to this point of specialization, the cells are more alike than you may think. ducky tbh mold may have been a bad example... but the dog/ape works just fine as subs-*BAD WORD*-ute (in this post too)

Unplanned children are not a benefit to society. In the case of a teenager/ young 20s woman getting pregnant and not getting an abortion, in most cases the parents of the woman are busted paying for this child's welfare (rather than their retirement), and the woman and her man - if he hasn't jetted - are paying for this child's welfare (Rather than their first house, saving for a planned child's education, whatever). If society is willing to turn a blind eye to conditions that create unwanted pregnancies, it should turn a blind eye to the abortions that are desired as a result. However, unlicensed abortion centers can be dangerous - thus the government has a responsibility to ensure that abortions are available. granting for this argument that the tissue is human once the egg is fertilzed, i'll concede you might be killing the next Washington, Trudeau or Churchill, but you might also be killing the next Hitler, Napoleon or Caesar. In any case, I don't give this particular angle much credit. the father and mother should have the only input into the decision, and what ducky said makes sense to me on that score. my problem with pro-lifers is that they ignore the fact that in all probability said child who's life they are saving, will likely just end up in the same predicament in 15-20 years after birth.

the reason why people care so much about the american elections, and always will until some asian country kicks its !@#$%^&*, is because it is the country with the most power. plain and simple. the republicans among you will say !@#$%^&* like "!@#$%^&* straight" and "IM GOING TO GO BATHE IN SOME CRUDE NOW K THX BYE," but the problem of outsourcing jobs is becoming very real. it's not just happening to americans. canada's ohios (southern ontario, mostly), are getting screwed out of manufacturing jobs too. my dad's job was axed because the company couldn't compete with other companies that hire people in asia. in 10 or 20 years, there will be one or more same-level powers as the usa. economically, if not militarily (As the case of the eu). until the usa becomes to the world what canada is to the usa right now, people will always care about what goes on. the only thing i know about european elections are that a facist got to the final ticket in France, neo-nazis are getting elected in east german provinces again, and Blair is still PM. oh, and some ex-secret agent runs russia. that's it. because they aren't as important. congrats on being important, usa. now are you going to run yourselves into the ground?

Neither Edwards nor Cheney made any big mistakes last night (pending fact checking as Vile said), but they were pretty good about the debate in general and I just wish Canadian debates could be like that lol. Both of them had respect for one another and Cheney made good use of the "nothing to add" routine... I think in some instances he should have spoken all the same. I watched the debate between 3 leading canadian politicians after today's Speech from the Throne (Mcellan Leyton Mckay I think the names are)... it was !@#$%^&*ing funny They kept speaking out of turn and trying to shout eachother out... then again it wasn't a scheduled debate with millions watching. Electoral reform, here we come! (we = canada) will be interesting to see how friday's debate goes, im not sure i understand what town hall means... screened questions from the audience?

growing to be 6 and 1/3 feet tall helps too 5) Light as a feather, there is nothing in it; the strongest man can't hold it for much more than a minute? The sigh when a pretty woman bends over to pick up some dropped object

I recall some time ago a D introducing a bill to reinstate the draft as a way of stirring up public response to the war as a "this is where we're headed under Bush" kinda thing. Is this perhaps the same bill, or did I huff too much paint todya?

Lol. Always the same people saying "bring back the old sets." Always a few more people come forward and say "Take it or leave it," when people say "bring back the old sets." This discussion gets older faster every time a thread like this is made. 17th is a good zone when it has the 20v20 pub games but it's ending up like Chaos pub with 2x the speccers than players, which is sad, because Chaos is good too with lots of people. No amount of settings/maps changes will make me want to play 17th more than 5 minutes if it's 6v6, and I don't believe any amount of settings changes will change the proportions of people who are speccing in the zone. Then again I've said all this and more before and been told that my posts are irrelevant and that I don't know what I'm talking about. That's ok. Have fun sitting in spec talking about why pub sucks though. Edit: Turreting in 17th isn't as hard as you all seem to think, try not overfiring as if every ship was a jav, that's a good place to start.

Rofl. it's only funny cause it's true, admit it ANYways it should be pretty obvious delic is a populist, and martyrs make great populists. it's a useful internet persona, though i've never bothered cultivating it that's quite an email you sent there Mr. D., im surprised it didn't get the exact reaction you desired

I didn't see Kerry's speech, I Was at work that night. I did see the Clintons and Carter, and Gore. IF I were American and was undecided I'd be ready to vote for Clinton, but as has been said he's not the candidate

Lanc is fine in pub but in leagues like the msbl it can't be !@#$%^&*ured of starting with full shrap (So i was told) so its a much less effective ship in non-pub arenas (arenas with no greening). would explain why its posted here

Everyone involved should get a one day ban, then made smods, then they can have a ban war. Whoever wins would get a 5k day ban. Problem solved! -*BAD WORD*- I'm so good.
