I'm only following a blog. I don't know about Maw. It's on Satellite guess.
July 03, 2018 at 20:12
Christ. If this goes to penalties. The draaaama.
July 03, 2018 at 20:07
It's Aye McKock. Feel free to grab it. :up:
July 03, 2018 at 20:06
Haha. I knew I'd successfully jinx it. :)
July 03, 2018 at 19:56
Beats 'Night Soil' I guess.

England are going to win. Boring.
July 03, 2018 at 19:41
Yes, if anyone wants to change their name they can do so by sending a PM to me or jamalrob. In TPF land, you can call yourself whatever you want...wit...

I've got the Liveblog on while I do other stuff. I have a feeling this will go to extra time, but England will shade it.

Not accepting a warning. PMed insults including use of the phrases Nazi, fascist, psychopathic idiot etc. So, yes, you didn't see it. (And this inform...

Sometime during the war anyway.
July 03, 2018 at 08:04
It's there in its current form since @"Sapientia" went rogue and was neutralized. Can't remember when that was. About a decade ago I think, was it, Sa...

I'm not familiar with jamalrobs's family tree.. :)

It's written in the Guidelines, which I hope everyone wandering in off the street or off anything else would read: :) "Moderator conduct: In discussio...

And Putin won too. Footballmageddon.
July 01, 2018 at 21:18
Shit. That was close. Social democracy's taking a beating these days. Trump will be laughing into his Starbucks fascistocano. :(

Two hours work to earn enough to drink the shittiest beverage in your workplace. And make sure to smile!
July 01, 2018 at 21:02
Min wage is about 50 cents an hour. Baristas make $1.50 here (I checked), and a basic coffee is $3. Obscene sex rituals will run you about a twenty. :...
July 01, 2018 at 20:57
Minimum wage over here is 10% of US rate. A Starbucks immoralatte is 100% of US price. Don't flag me, hit me with a flagpole.
July 01, 2018 at 20:40
Created by it even. But there's not much we can do about that apart from being aware of it, and I'd give enough credit to the old man that he might ta...
July 01, 2018 at 20:08
Couldn't he really be sorry and not personally responsible though? Seems a bit of a contrived analogy.
July 01, 2018 at 19:50
Conflating being better off with being less violent helps your argument more than mine. There is something amiss though, which is our tendency towards...
July 01, 2018 at 19:42
Facts can be inconvenient. But they're all we have to work with. If it was a close thing on the statistics it'd be arguable. But I really don't think ...

"In its purest form, wrath presents with injury, violence, and hate." Yes, so violence is always wrong (inherently). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sev...
July 01, 2018 at 19:06
So what? I never mentioned murder. And I just agreed violence can be a pragmatic good. Wrath is inherently wrong, agree or not?
July 01, 2018 at 19:03
Wrath is one of the seven deadly sins for a reason. Because it's an inherent evil.
July 01, 2018 at 19:01
It's never inherently good. It can only be a pragmatic good.
July 01, 2018 at 18:57
...And unfortunately my neighbour is aware of that.
July 01, 2018 at 18:44
I'm willing to love my neighbour but not to trust him. It seems a lot easier to trust myself. Though that might also be a mistake.
July 01, 2018 at 18:43
I'm sure if I knew more about the details of the maths, I'd be able to see enough subtleties to allow me to be confused about this. But I'll leave it ...

Fixed important typo that reversed meaning - refresh page plz.
July 01, 2018 at 18:26
Well, because they're in single figures, they're too small to see in proportion to the other figures. That only underlines the massive differences. Th...
July 01, 2018 at 18:24
I think the objection is that his approach is an error of reason. It's specified that the contents of the envelopes are X and 2X. So whatever value yo...

@"Moliere" States reduce violence by monopolizing it.
July 01, 2018 at 17:05
All the evidence. E.g. /uploads/resized/files/hm/t54zecylnbggl78l.jpg /uploads/resized/files/lh/zwq0ej0sn9ga4nuv.jpg https://evolutionistx.wordpress.c...

No violence, no state. But no state, more violence. Lamentable. If we all just stayed online insulting each other rather than fucking about in the rea...

After eight years I was expecting something a little more exciting than tomatoes. But given your recent comments, I've given up on grenades. :(
July 01, 2018 at 15:10
I think you missed the context of my reply to Agu there. Africa in general is no picnic violence-wise.
July 01, 2018 at 02:01
He was an addict, apparently. :) Yes, good guy, genuine. His last discussion was a bit of an unfortunate idea though. None of us are paragons of reaso...

And before anyone asks, @"Mr Phil O'Sophy" asked us to ban him today because he wanted to leave the site. Eventually one of us granted the request. He...

@"Agustino" And there was discussion in the mod forum where the mod who banned Buxtebuddha asked several times if there were any objections. And this ...
June 30, 2018 at 11:06
Trolling, anti-semitic jokes, dick sucking comments, ignoring warnings,, laughing at being warned and so on. Again, most of the reason he's been banne...
June 30, 2018 at 10:51
So, you have 10. But only one scenario applies to your choice, either the one where you lose by switching in which case X is five and 2X is 10, or you...
June 30, 2018 at 01:33
We know the chosen envelope has £10 in your scenario and we also know that one of the envelopes contained an amount X and one of the envelopes contain...
June 30, 2018 at 00:52
The problem is he's painted himself into a corner about the whole thing being a massive success and by the time he manages to admit he's made a mess o...
June 30, 2018 at 00:26
Take any given pair of envelopes X+2X Let X=10 (for example) If you choose Envelope X you see £10 and switching to Envelope 2X gains you £10 If you ch...
