I had to give up driving tow trucks. I loved the solitary environment, and cruising mostly-empty freeways and streets in the early morning hours. It was an INTP dream scape. But I was chained to the job. I was always on call, and even had to drive to my wife's sister's wedding in a tow truck...

So let's see...I've got the job, the two kids, the commute time. Need to buy the groceries, then transform them into something palatable at least twice daily. On the rare occasions when I'm feeling both lazy and rich, I can have a pizza delivered to our door. That might give me enough time to...

YOUR world is of your own making. It's fine to be a Swartz fanboy and believe that he 'changed the course of humanity', but in doing so you should put some effort into curbing the tendency to ass-rape everyone else with your fanaticism. Your 'hero' is dead by his own hand. Where shall you...

*My view; Regardless of the circumstances, it's immature to blame groups of people so large that they are only identifiable as 'they' for one man's decision to self-terminate. The person in question was exceptionally intelligent; hence, we must assume that he was totally aware of the potential...

I always wanted an E-thing to stroke and love. All I've ever had is my cold, hard I.

Heh, don't worry about it. :)

Duxwing. You're responding to Solitaire U. but quoting Tony3d. I'm not Tony3d. I promise, guarantee, and assure you that I was never Tony3d in the past, nor do I have any plans to become him in the future. I'm Solitaire U. The Last of the V-8 Interceptors. The only member here (far as I know)...

Scored a 0; exclusively hetrosexual... Though that is actually a long way off from the truth (answered completely honestly).

"In English…ultimately our language calls on us to describe only a living creature by either male or female gender…" This isn't exactly accurate. In English, animals are typically assigned the singular object pronoun 'it'. It is only through familiarity with the sex of a specific animal that we...

You have the wrong guy... http://www.intpforum.com/showthread.php?t=15043&highlight=relationships P.S. It's cold in here.

^ Refresh my memory. When did I say that?

Because he always starts up in the morning, idles smoothly, and runs flawlessly all day long. His brakes don't squeak, his transmission never misses a shift, and his climate controls function perfectly to cool him off or warm him when his cabin temperature is above or below his comfort zone...

*Warning, possible spoilers* The Walking Dead Episodes 1 through 5 Somehow got sucked into this 'game', although I don't know if it can even be called a game in the strictest sense of the word...more like a choose your own adventure story with a lot of 'frantically mash a single button as fast...

The Dr. Phils (*giant light bulb illuminates over Duxwing's head*) of the world have mortgages to pay, therefore you ARE broken if they say so. That's why Dr. Phil is on prime time. Programs of his ilk are basically pharmaceutical infomercials. Their message filters down to you through all the...

Have played Borderlands 1 multiple times to try out all the characters. All the side missions and 4 expansion packs has yielded untold hours of gaming, and I'm still not bored. I've only been playing Borderlands 2 for a week, but already it feels like a much larger game than its predecessor...

^ Playing it now. It is indeed the awesomeist awesome that ever awesomed.

How about answering telephones? Tech service, switchboard operator, etc. Seems like those types of jobs would be within your physical means.

Is thread-killing a form of non-firearm related murder?

What are the physical issues?

What is your mother tongue? Just curious.

I'd like to say that F -types are my teachers...but they're more like my window into that which I'm resigned to never fully experiencing.

Why thank you, Cognisant. No, my interpretation of the book (and the world) is simply mine. Important to remember that all the ugly little Hitlers of the world have resources to protect their positions of power via armies of strong, well-armed adherents. Piggy had Ralph, a conch shell, and a...

Oooh, I see someone's making an effort!

I think the point of LOTF was something along the lines of childhood behavior being merely an exaggerated mirror of adult behavior... With Piggy, and to a lesser extent Ralph, symbolizing that intellect and democracy will always fall to physical strength, sexual prowess, and brutal savagery...

Does 'Six Feet Under' count as a TV show? Other than 'Hell's Kitchen', it's the only series I've actively followed in years.

Dude, what are you doing?

I don't believe it follows a time line per se. However, (my opinion of) the 'suckieness' of music definitely seems related to two factors; target audience and commercialization. The lower the age range of the former, and aggressiveness of the later, the greater the potential to = 'sucky' music.

^ Beat me to the punch. Without effort there are no results, so reward the effort and downplay the results. Works in ESL environments.

So he goes next door to the supermarket and starts blasting away there. Or, if his heart is set on targeting children, simply waits until school ends and picks them off with a sniper rifle when they're outside the building. From gun control to impenetrable fortress schools; that's like trying...

I think the big thing with guns is the fear factor. A guy enters a theater with a baseball bat and starts swinging, he might get three good clunks in before everyone jumps on him. A guy enters a theater with an smg and starts firing randomly, panic will ensue as everyone scatters in the...

IMAO, the philosophical implications are irrelevant. I wouldn't do anything that irreversibly limits my options. I'm curious. Since having sex and making babies aren't mutually exclusive anymore, why would you consider it? To make a statement? How would you go about expressing that statement?

Don't recall where I heard this but; 'perfect ruby starfruit'. I assume it's a butt-sex term.

'Mammoth' (2009). Just finished watching this movie. Still kinda stunned, so I'll just say 'wow', excellent flick.

Yeah, I know that it's really difficult for you to understand the point I'm making: Ratio: 90 firearms per 100 citizens... Control over firearms, up to and including total ban: Impossible. It's my opinion. Did I break a rule in stating it? What's your fucking problem?

sigh

Heh, ok. Fuck you too.

So then you're saying that all the little guns will run into the furnace out of fear for the big guns killing them? I could be wrong, but I believe a version of that was tested and conclusively proven to fail during WW2. Regardless, I always assumed the 2nd amendment existed to eliminate the...

^ No offense, but that's an insanely idealistic and naive view.

Approx. 330 million privately owned firearms in the US, though nobody actually knows for sure how accurate that figure is. It could be much greater. At that level of saturation, anti-firearm legislation is going to be impossible to enforce. But just assuming legislation banning firearms was...
