It's a god damned anime forum of all places. They have a philosophy section there. All the freaks and weirdos of the internet love to show up there and I'm basically the only libertarian/anarchist there.

so you are saying you are the only sane person there?

EDIT: in the philosophy section. having read it, I despair.

Paul Chabot not only tries to discredit LEAP, but even goes as far as to claim that alcohol prohibition actually worked!

As I replied to that.

    "Thinks handouts make you weak"
    No, he thinks stealing from people and giving some to others and playing it off as generosity makes you an asshole
I recently heard that the word heretic is derived from the greek work heriticos which means "able to choose"

I've actually seen people compare themselves, as Socialists, to Robin Hood (even a recent, in historical terms, Sheriff of Nottingham), blithely unaware that the stories are actually about the evils of government taking excessive taxes.

Quote from: Ridley ScottNASA and the Vatican agree that [it is] almost mathematically impossible that we can be where we are today without there being a little help along the way... That's what we're looking at [in the film], at some of Erich von Däniken's ideas of how did we humans come about.


From here.

Honestly, I don't know where to start with this one. First off, where the hell does he get the first part, and who in their right mind would conflate the two? Secondly, Erich von Däniken? Pathological liar, criminal psychopath, and known fraudster Erich von Däniken? Thirdly, why in the hell is this necessary for the narrative? I mean, at best, it's a background story for the plot's Macguffin. You need something to get them from the starting point to the setting of the main story where hijinks can ensue. Why do you need to tie it in to a known archaeological fraudster? Finally, just why? I mean, I was looking forward to this movie. The trailers looked cool, and really reminded me of the old trailers for the Alien movie. Now I can't go see it without getting the feeling that I'm patronizing that moron. Worse yet, what if the whole first half of the movie is full of that 'ancient astronaut pervert human-fucker' bullshit? AAARRRGGHH!!!!

Sorry, I just hate it when pseudoscience and other BS ruins shit for the rest of us.

You think that's bad? I'm about to blow your mind.

His hair? It's intentional. He does that to himself on purpose. Apparently spends an hour (and lots of gel) to get it that way. I wonder if the people he fools know how much of the money they give him is spent on hair product?

QuoteWe're animals. Training a child is a lot like training a dog. As the child grows older & gets more intelligent, the need for physical reinforcement lessens as the child becomes capable of reasonable discussion. But until that point, I'll spank my kid's behind for causing a scene in a grocery store (not in the store, mind you) just the same as I'd swat a dog with a newspaper roll for pooping on the carpet.

If you think you can reason with a screaming child, you've got no idea how a child's brain works. Pull your head out of your ass.


Ironically, swatting your dog is a poor way to train it too so he fails on all levels.
