Climate change isn't on my list of concerns. This isn't a commentary on the science of climate change, but just a commentary on me. Not sure where my ...
What is interesting to me though as a non-drinker is the sociological reaction to the non-drinker. I think non-drinkers make drinkers uncomfortable. I...
This describes me as well, as does your description of how alcohol makes you feel. It's for that reason that I don't think this really is a philosophi...
David was a piece of shit. He impregnated another guy's wife and then sent him to the front line in battle to have him killed. He excused his son when...
I just double checked. It's actually age 62 where you get the free education. Medicare is 65. I guess I got that confused. Free school at 62 and then ...
Once I went to the library (I know you're calling bullshit on this already, but this story is real, I promise), and they said I owed like $30 or so an...
I keep a stack of twenty dollar bills in my bathroom I use as toilet paper, so I guess I could have my manservents use those to fetch me a meal if thi...
Here in Georgia, once you reach 65, you can attend any university, community college, or even tech school for free of charge. They won't pay for gradu...
Time moved back an hour and now it's dark at the park when I run but at least I finish an hour before I start now and get it out of the way. It's comm...
Don't you try to gaslight me. You made a comment about me salting my pork chops being a pro move, followed by a "wow," dripping with sarcasm. But mayb...
My okra pet peeve is that the West African word for okra is kingombo. As a result, we end up with a dish called "gumbo," which is most popular in Loui...
Your encouragement allows me to carry on. Without it, I'd be relegated to various curry dishes, which seems to be a staple here. Apples are a traditio...
Gentlemen, I give you seasoned grilled porkchops, grilled apples with cinnamon and honey, and okra with hot sauce. /uploads/resized/files/nl/711gfg484...
This only works if free will is knowledge itself, but I don't think God can't know everything, including what is not known by any person currently. Th...
Where you say "Maximal order is minimal total information," it implies information is an element within a system as opposed to an element within a per...
I didn't make any reference to imposing anything on anyone. I indicated what would and would not be ethical. If you lie, you are unethical. That doesn...
This is a subjective ethic though, meaning that you're willing to concede it's ethical to ignore others if that happens to be your own personal viewpo...
Interesting. Would Mary learn something new when she saw red if Mary were God? I'll have to think about that one. Omniscience entails knowledge of eve...
What increases with complexity is the amount of knowledge we have because we can learn observable changes as opposed to having to rely upon theoretica...
I logged onto my Amex account and they texted me a one time code to log in with the warning in all caps that I should never share it with anyone. 9960...
Count yourself among the lucky. Koalas constantly mock me in public and bully me on social media. What I would give for just one evening without the t...
Watched a good 20 minutes of that. Found it helpful. Thanks! :point: Sorry, still working on my emoji game. Will Discourse finally give us a broccoli ...
I read koala bear meat tastes terrible due to their diet of eucalyptus. If not for that, I'd be be dining on a koala bear face sammich right now. I'd ...
You can't discount genetic factors when assessing your reaction to drugs and alcohol. Some find it very pleasurable and addicting and others not. I fa...
If you guys think the turpentine wiki article was the shit, you should look into the one on wintergreen. Get a load of this here info: "One milliliter...
I grew up in an area dominated by the Icelandic mob, and we used the term "skilja" to mean understand. I once refused to pay protection money for my w...
This comment makes me regret ever having begun this conversation with you. You now don't know what a lie is. Super. I can't be sure there are other mi...
The sap from the weeping willow tastes of sadness and loss, leaving one in a state of melancholy that makes breakfast difficult to endure. I much pref...
I do think the answer lies in a sociological analysis. Jews are unusual in that they half-way assimilate into the greater culture. They don't remain s...
But to answer your question more directly, since I am your only American resource, don't misuderstand the Alabamaman. The last thing he wants is "help...
The saying in Georgia had long been "Thank God for Alabama," although sometimes we used Mississippi in its place. For example, when crime data, educat...
