From a small business owner's perspective, the idea of having to have a third bathroom on top of the two required many can barely afford as-is would b...
If I may. I think he's suggesting the fact that Marcell Ozuna happens to have an exceptionally higher batting average than the rest of his teammates i...
I would like to add, in addition to this, even less time has passed since when we wanted information or entertainment or education we would A.) take a...
At least there's the blue-footed booby as well as the titmouse to add to your collection of dubiously-named animalia. I'm afraid that will have to suf...
From a general non-political non-specific state of affairs: The "censorship" angle would hold more water if it weren't always the most awful uneducate...
Hopefully not getting off topic but this is something I've pondered fairly often. Is it because people, especially the non-wisdom-inclined, we'll say ...
:eyes: Pretty sure "high cheekbones" are an ethnic, genetic trait. Not a "face" or "expression" one makes, let alone has any conscious control over. S...
An excellent question. That begets an unfortunate discussion. The answer, and no it is not mere opinion but rather measurable and observable fact time...
That's a good question. As a relative simpleton who's been trying his best to follow along with the recent arguments, I would ask: why could you not t...
Why oh why am I just now finding out about such a creature. There went my chance to be the popular kid during the "write a report on..." assignment fo...
Fun fact: Socrates was imprisoned for his own safety. Just about everybody who knew him either wanted to kill him or make him "go away". And eventuall...
What is an adult? Is it legally set by the State? Or biologically by puberty? What if one is a eunuch and does not go through "puberty" per se? Or has...
Surely genetics must play some role, if not the occasional cameo. Not to suggest willpower or simple availability of the thing (convenience meets oppo...
This I admire most about this thread; I wonder the exact same. Turned out great btw, very highly intellectual and compelling non-biased descriptions o...
Sounds like you speak from experience? :chin: -- But generally speaking, OP. The wisdom of the old ones ring true: "If there's a market for your idea,...
I think my favorite memory of inner city schooling (and believe me there were not many) was how the bus driver would (most likely illegally and in vio...
Why do men seek pleasure and not misery? To keep on track with psychoanalyzing, well, because a happy life is a good one, no? Other than that, it's si...
My thoughts on the "situation" are exactly this. If I was tasked with overthrowing a nation state, or fighting an army, if I could have one condition ...
While I don't disagree with you in principle, I feel compelled to ask: doesn't law and order as well? Surely the two aren't so terribly dissimilar in ...
Anyone else absolutely fascinated with the current "Infinite Staircase Paradox" debate? Didn't want to interrupt, don't think I'd have much of utility...
Unlike the inconsiderate poster above me, I have decided to include photographic evidence of my culinary exploits, so as to not leave an insatiable Sh...
Capital "F" "Fate" is consciously determined by an outside actor in which said actions to determine said fate were performed willfully with the intent...
True. I am known in my personal life for having the mannerisms of a small rodent, and the dinner etiquette of such to match. Just thought I'd give @"H...
I've always harbored an innate distrust of persons who have the word "charcuterie" in their vocabulary. let alone those who partake in them. They're a...
My reasoning is that you're looking for someone who is not only intelligent but content with themselves as a person, developed well beyond the child-l...
I must say this is surely a Lounge topic. Also, stop giving me lucrative business ideas. It stirs a very troublesome aspect of my persona I have yet t...
I can only imagine your take on the word "pants", then. From the olde (enough) English "pantaloons", no doubt. My bet is some oddball shopkeep got tir...
A humble "Ultimate BLT with Chicken" Sunday salad, courtesy of Simply Fresh. Accompanied on my part with fresh hard-boiled egg, freshly ground black p...
Huh. Could've passed for (in order from top left to bottom right): Oyster crackers, chopped baby carrots, chopped collards or green onion, peas, blueb...
I get his point, though. Perhaps it's my OCD but in essence, words kinda do have to mean something otherwise we don't have a discussion we have an uni...
It's aware it's being eaten? What does it think of Donald Trump's guilty verdict, or does it, like many salads, prefer to stay apolitical? Did it ever...
Riddle me this, for the sake of defining art. What is "special"? Unique? Surely a blank piece of paper with a black dot squarely in the center is not ...
Well, that definitely wasn't my point of contention or "indirect message" at all. Just an interesting documentary I thought you'd enjoy and perhaps ot...
No, right on. As I said, I must've been barely an adolescent at the time I happened on a few episodes. Can definitely see it as falling under the loos...
After reading your well-thought out OP I must, at the risk of sounding like a dullard, remind that American Idol is an opinion-based talent competitio...
Sure. Of course, those who spend their time and efforts doing so often tend to find themselves with both significantly less time and resulting means o...
I stand educated. And a bit disturbed. "The surface area of the small intestine is very large (about the size of a tennis court)" :brow: Still, I feel...
All true. Didn't mean to oversimplify, I do have a habit of doing so, not intentionally, mind you. Still, I'd argue much of our core "driving factors"...
That's all well and good, seems to fill in all the gaps quite nicely and whatnot, but surely you've left out another just as equally profound line of ...
See, I never could understand folk who drink while they eat. It's like, if you're going to put half your organs through liquid hell you might as well ...
Haven't had a good pork chop in years myself. Grilled onions. The works. When was the last time actually. Small deli/cafe down the road was having a s...
Well that's surely harsh, no doubt. But are Man's decrees and punishments not both beyond on par but surpassing in both fastidiousness and cruelty? "L...
I realize the majority of participants in this thread view this as a debate in fiction, but regardless, let's examine the tale a bit closer. The warni...
:eyes: You've got great taste! Unfortunately, that's likely one indulgence you would benefit from limiting some. Remember the rule of thumb for life o...
I think it's likely the chastiser believes you are not absorbing or fully understanding the deeper subtleties and "theme" or argument of certain compl...
Oh come now. I can assure you @"180 Proof" is far from the one who masquerades as an angel of Light. Far. :lol: A bit stubborn, perhaps, we might not ...
And this is why my former English teacher was right again in his philosophy of "never discussing religion or politics with anyone" no matter how hard ...
