Interesting that a discussion about glyphosate has come up here. It's a key ingredient in many of the weed killers sold at my workplace. I don't know ...

Your ideal solution is not going to happen, and, lacking that, your method would lead to more of the kind of thing that you're complaining about. We n...

:D Now that's funny. (But not as funny as the pigeon).
October 14, 2017 at 09:46
Knock knock, Who's there? Poll tax. Oh, look! A pigeon! >:O
October 14, 2017 at 09:20
Maybe I will, but this discussion is about the contraction of the universe, and I still have queries about what you've said in that regard.
October 14, 2017 at 09:11
No, I suppose not, but that'd make more sense, wouldn't it? I'll go with what makes more sense. Anyone can come up with ideas like that or like your p...

T'was pretty good. Pretttttty pretttttty pretttttttty pretty good.

There are plenty of facts which suggest that the German nation did not need much convincing that the Jews were inferior and a problem which needed to ...

No, the dots would not be contracting away from each other, except in the very limited sense, which I acknowledged, that some dots would be moving awa...

The rhythm's off with yours, too. The first line in particular is too long.
October 12, 2017 at 19:15
Well, maybe as a standard for others to emulate, what I said would be an exaggeration. But it would be advisable, like you say, to have first obtained...
October 12, 2017 at 19:08
Test it.
October 12, 2017 at 17:08
Would it be asking too much to expect you to take a joke? Tainted Bait sounds like a good rock band name, by the way.

:D
October 12, 2017 at 15:18
You're welcome.
October 12, 2017 at 14:52
Oh, so you're the goddess of wisdom?
October 12, 2017 at 14:51
Ah, so you can make a sensible point on the topic. I was beginning to lose hope.
October 12, 2017 at 14:46
Having now read that discussion, I can confirm that that is a misleading description of it. T Clark disagreed with parts and expressed his doubts, Way...
October 12, 2017 at 14:22
No, directionality doesn't really matter in that sense, since everything is moving away from everything, as the evidence suggests. No, I don't think t...
October 12, 2017 at 14:08
If you won't listen, then I won't speak. I have already spoken on this subject, yet your question indicates that you have not listened.
October 12, 2017 at 13:25
Yes, it is a model that warrants respect. It's crazy that some people actually think that it would be a good idea to make firearms even more widesprea...

I have a PhD in sarcasm assessment.
October 12, 2017 at 11:47
Oops, your sarcasm detector is due for repair, it would seem. My apologies.
October 12, 2017 at 11:35
Exactly.
October 12, 2017 at 11:31
See? That's twisting my words again.
October 12, 2017 at 11:30
How was my feedback not constructive? You just didn't like hearing it, and seem determined to twist my words.
October 12, 2017 at 11:23
Yes. (Terms and conditions apply).
October 12, 2017 at 11:18
Yeah, but I wrote that one myself, and I'm an owl. Beat that. Now half price! (See, I'm a pro).
October 12, 2017 at 11:13

@"MikeL", instead of bombarding people, why not take it one step at a time? How about starting with Hubble's Law? Alternatively, we could go to hell, ...
October 12, 2017 at 10:59
Yes, that's exactly what I want. You're good at reading people. Is that a learnt skill or does it come naturally?
October 12, 2017 at 10:52
There once was a guy called T Clark, Who might disapprove of this lark. It's an awful affair, But he has lovely hair, So I cut off his head after dark...
October 12, 2017 at 10:46
No, you don't take my point if that's what you've taken. Basically, know what you're talking about before diving in headfirst, and go about it in the ...
October 12, 2017 at 10:23
The Robert Lockhart approach? No, I wouldn't advise that approach.
October 12, 2017 at 10:15
Seems so, yes. Before even getting to a stage where I'd be coming up with my own ideas to present, I would make sure that I knew the subject inside an...

I've looked at the bigger picture. My conclusion is that, if incidents such as those mentioned are indeed rare, they are not rare enough. More can and...

October 11, 2017 at 22:16
I can't speak for the others, but saying "please" multiple times in the same sentence is not something that I'd do. For the record, I would also have ...
October 11, 2017 at 22:09
It's not about capability. It's about spending one's time wisely. If you're having trouble figuring things out that plenty of others can easily grasp,...
October 11, 2017 at 21:49
Sure. How bad can it be? Oh... Have you tried knitting?

Donald Duck > Donald Trump.
October 11, 2017 at 21:37
Are you telling me that you genuinely expect me to take those replies seriously? Why would I do that?
October 11, 2017 at 21:29
Perhaps you have a comedy tutor that you could refer them to. Although, if your comedy is anything like your grammar...
October 11, 2017 at 21:02
The evidence is not on your side. The US allows far easier access to firearms than most other countries. The US also has a disproportionately high lev...
October 11, 2017 at 20:38
Yes, and I asked you why you were doing that, since it wasn't requested, and it doesn't seem to really add anything to the discussion. I'm trying to k...
October 11, 2017 at 20:15
No, you can't leap from the particular to the general like that. It's fallacious and misleading. Restricting gun ownership poses no obstacle whatsoeve...
October 11, 2017 at 09:30
An insidious question. He's suggesting that there are people who deserve to be shot.
October 11, 2017 at 09:18
When you want to have a serious discussion, let me know.
