Good news! That nice cleaning lady has just started coming back into work! Everything is alright again!

Invasion of the Bots!

At the end of everyday, seconds after I've snuggled into my bed, my cat comes and spoons me, right under my armpit. In the last five years of cohabita...

Please do not allow this. Upvote serves little purpose. We all know I'd upvote nearly everything SLX writes. We all know Buxtebudda would upvote nearl...

Pfft. When I want to die, I want to go where Camus is.
January 05, 2018 at 09:09
Well, that was because I was using your terms. I my own, I would say that survival is the only value by which a trait is selected. Sociopaths, people ...

No it is not. I have specifically acknowledged the presence and offered and explanation of 'evil' people. You are ignoring the point I was making : su...

Even more funny : I met my first girlfriend working at a pig-slaughtering plant in Red Deer, Alberta. :-*
January 05, 2018 at 08:02
As the saying goes; "I can fap to that!" O:)
January 05, 2018 at 08:00
This attitude right there is what annoys me the most out of every depiction of post-apocalyptic scenarios. When the chips are down, the vast majority ...

Now what I want is for TimeLine to write a softcore novel about this budding romance.

It was sold when someone made a ridiculous offer. The people who bought it had no intention to maintain it or keep it running, just declaring it as a ...

Civility is relative when speaking to someone who live in a place where "Alright, how do we fuck this pig?" is an acceptable every-day idiom.
January 05, 2018 at 06:23
That somewhat implies that there is something clever in an aristocrat joke. Or speaks badly of what you judge as clever... >:)

:B Did Nero really organise actual pissing contest?

Perhaps he has cow skin perfumed with the scent of peaches?
January 05, 2018 at 02:01
:-O
January 05, 2018 at 01:52
It is a well known Canadian trivia factoid that Prairie girls taste like corn, and not peaches.

You are kind of a pro at being akward, you know.

Jesus fucking Christ what the hell is wrong with you that you think this is an acceptable statement to ever make? Of course it could be worse than ann...

A good 50 % of their pieces in the last month were nothing more than postmodernism bashing or feminism bashing. And if you think wsws.org is anything ...

You know, if you are going to post these pseud alt-right spooks sites as "sites from thoughtfull folks", you should at least be fair and measured and ...

To the scenario, of course!
January 02, 2018 at 07:22
Perhaps you are assuming too much freedom in the possibility to direct morality? Perhaps, once you start dictating terms of moral worthiness, you nece...
January 02, 2018 at 07:07
I agree, the overlap of forms between scales is an exception, and seems to be possible within about only 2 or 3 scales (mostly dog-sized and human-siz...
January 02, 2018 at 07:03
Yes, but can you do something you recognize as morally heinous and not recognize yourself as someone who is capable of morally heinous act? And if you...

Serious behavioural problems. Worker A was the most unpleasant lady I have ever met in my life. Just absolutely bitter in every worst ways possible. I...

You still ended up acting per the need of the person, and not per your need to teach those kids a lesson (or if you did, you took a terrible way of ac...

Well, there's worse things than taking pleasure in karmic retribution.
January 02, 2018 at 03:32
Emotional reactions to display of infidelity are some of the most vivid and most incomprehensible emotions I have ever felt. Hatred, contempt, disrega...

I'm not sure it does. Given the amount of cells in a human body, the size of that information would be absolutely staggering, and would constantly nee...

Work is insane lately. Its hard to explain what I do, but we deal a lot with emergency and mandatory services, where the client has to offer 24/7 serv...

I currently hate my existence. (yes, hyperbole and all.)
January 01, 2018 at 03:28
A contrario, we can observe that some living structures can be adapted (within reason) to multiple scale orders. Monkeys can be the size of mice or bi...

You would have to gerrywork your universe a lot to justify the existence of an evolved hamster-sized elephant. Why would an animal so small evolve a t...

Aristotle's Prime Mover was not a Creator God.
December 28, 2017 at 06:43
Well, that goes counter that what everyone of my teachers on ancient philosophy have told me. That Creation was not a predominant question in Antiquit...

How do you decide you are happy with your signature? I have no clue how one would go about defining elegance, but I feel its explanation would go a lo...
December 28, 2017 at 06:24
But there wasn't any Design component to it. The question of Creation doesn't seem to have made sense to the ancient world's paradigm.

Ah! I knew all these years of unreasonable media consumption would eventually pay off. Still, Dark Willow was the hottest Alyson Hannigan ever got on ...

Huh. Had always assumed it was a Buffy the Vampire Slayer reference.
December 27, 2017 at 02:01
At this point we can safely say no one is. Poor girl.
December 27, 2017 at 01:29
We'll see. Purism's Librem lineup is so sexy...

Will have to. I have to get a new PC.

(Hint : Akanthinos is not so good with money)
December 26, 2017 at 23:32
Yeah, but think about it this way. What's the point of making 2x the cash when you miss the one day of the year where everything is 50%-80% off?
December 26, 2017 at 23:29
This is dumb. I'm stuck here at work for no reason. Just realized : a corporate office would make an awesome paintball venue.
December 26, 2017 at 23:25
Aristotle et al weren't per se defenders of ID, right?

Timeline confirmed for petite-bourgeoise. :P
