Kaadan kahvini päällesi.

That's strange. "Dust" is not a Finnish name.

Ah, yes. Wyylde. Motto - Join the Pleasure Party. "Wyylde is the first social network where you can express your sexuality freely." Here, take a look ...

Bologna. We know you're having your coffee, extra sugar, extra cream in the styrofoam cup from Dunkies like you do every morning. We got this picture ...

I nominate this as the least generous and least self-aware post of the year.

My son is a former bartender, former butcher, and a great cook. He and his girlfriend are in San Francisco this week and they went to the French Laund...

You can tell this is a good topic by all the thoughtful answers you got. Not a smarty pants in the bunch. I like quoted text a lot. Is it convincing? ...

@"Tom Storm" is an acetic hermit living on Ayers rock, eating 900 calories a day, and shitting rabbit pellets. Of course he has power and a satellite ...

In a sense, I think it is a summary of all the things I've written about on the forum. At bottom, they all have this in common.

I don't have any particular point to make by posting this graph, but I think it's interesting. /uploads/resized/files/1i/zydhm9e7jity9xt6.png

As it says in the Tao Te Ching:

All of @"Hanover"'s stories are real, but very few of them are true.

You're thinking of head cheese, scrapple, or haggis. Scrapple is wonderful. I've never had head cheese or haggis. Sausage is made with meat, spices, a...

I'm not sure, but it seems that you might be making a distinction between everything having an explanation and everything having a cause. Is that true...

Yes. It is one of the perennial favorites. I keep promising myself I won't get involved in them, but I usually do.

As I noted, the theory advocated here is not science. Now, if you'll just let this go and don't respond, I'll go away and won't come back to this disc...

As usual for your threads, I'll say this once and then go away. There is no science that says there is any connection between quantum entanglement and...

Advantages of links over patties: You can use them like little swords. The crunch of the casing is the best part. You can put them in your nose to mak...

This will shock you, but sausage does not naturally come in little cylindrical packages. Inside those packages is ground meat mixed with spices and ot...

The graph represents rates of suicide in the US. Here's a link: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/69/wr/mm6909a7.htm

In the Dixonian semisphere, the northern border of the nation is considered the Mason-Dixon Line. Since the line only goes to the western end of Penns...

I'm sure there is a good historical reason for that. If they were in psychoanalysis doing free association, and if the analyst said "maple syrup" most...

There's an entire thread about this currently active: Although I did not pay close attention to this thread, I did notice that you participated in it....

While lots of butter on white bread is important, the most important, the only truly indispensable feature is the cheese - it must be American cheese....

I think Tom Storm's second possibility, that there is no ultimate truth, is probably correct.

I understood that.

I don't want to get into this again. You and I've beaten it back and forth enough. I was responding to @"lll" and all I said was that there are many p...

I'll go line by line: 1. For any possible limit, there’s a possible external explanation - I'm not exactly sure what this means, but...ok. 2. Explanat...

I find the idea of God interesting also. Although I don't follow any religion, I find that the idea, the experience, of having a personal relationship...

@"jamalrob" Seems like this thread is turning into a thread on interpretation. Is that your intention, or do you plan on starting a separate discussio...

There was a thread that discussed interpretation a couple of months ago. I really enjoyed it and I think others did too. It made me realize how little...

There are many here who will defend the claim that ideas are merely neurological states.

Yes, I agree this is a good thing about @"Gnomon"'s posts. I should have mentioned it.

Like you, I've only read the original three books, but for me it was about 55 years ago. They meant a lot to me. I think the realization that there co...

In the arguments you have provided, you are defending one particular position that you characterize as moderate. If I say that I don't find your argum...

I intend this as a serious question and not at all as a criticism of what you've written - If that's how you feel, why get into this particular discus...

I was serious when I said "Sometimes I think we can," and it was "fake-it-till-you-make-it" I was thinking about.

Hey!! "Nuff said" is my catchphrase! Me and J. Jonah Jameson.

I didn't say your position is confusing, I said it is difficult to defend. There is nothing wrong with the way you express your thoughts. You are gene...

You just called it evidence. What more needs to be said? I can see why you call the evidence weak, but weak evidence is still evidence. Evaluating the...

Making a decision based on fear is a common and rational reaction. You're right. That is a problem. Can we just decide to believe something? Sometimes...

I agree and that's my problem with many atheists. Just because you don't think the evidence provided is reliable, that doesn't mean there's no evidenc...

Yes.

I was pretty clear in the post you are responding to.

I don't know. He wasn't banned. He quit.

I don't consider metaphysics as "the mental aspects of the world," and I doubt Aristotle did. Admittedly, that opinion is based on what I've read othe...

I assume it was just his way of telling us all to go fry ice.

I wrote "Nuff said" six hours ago, but here I still am. Ok, this time I really mean it. Nuff nuff said.
