Comment on Medieval Astronomy (2009-04-23 15:14:55)
@deuce: "God did it" IS a simpler answer than Evolution + BigBang. The simplest answer is easier to believe, but much harder to defend or prove in the face of complexity. The problem with mislabeled "creation" logic is that the world does not file away into neat little boxes like male, female, black, white, good and evil. The Christian Creationist mind cannot handle hermaphrodites, eunuchs or the fact that Ghandi was a racist who inspired MLK. Their litle word crumbles when you tell them that their thrice translated text is not a "reliable source" for facts and data and should not be taken at face value. But they do make some entertaining websites. :)
Comment on Bad Parking (2009-04-23 15:09:13)
lol.. trolls abound. yeah.. all Americans like wasting money on fake Italian food (read: Chef Boyardee) and parking their BMWs in two spots to "save walking time" and we all aparently voted for Bush even though the mathematical inaccuracy of that statement is obvious by the fact that he barely won either election. I am going to assume anyone dumb enough to believe any of that is a troll or too ignorant to convince otherwise. Or Canadian. -_^

@JamesTuskGeorge: would be believeable if it wasn't a little sports car. I have trouble believing they would need "extra room" due to fatness or injury driving that cramped thing.
Comment on Chernobyl in 2007 (2009-04-19 08:01:34)
@cm3ars: You'll be waiting a while. Life is not like the movies. Nuclear power is actually clean and safe and Chernobyl was a preventable (human error) accident, not some failure of the nuclear industry.

Emulate a gay man and you will not get women. Try agian.
Comment on Music That Makes You Dumb (2009-04-19 07:52:52)
fail fail fail. coincidence =/= cause. For one, I listen to every type of music. My 1380 SAT score has nothing below it so all this tells me is that they interviewed "average" kids with either very specific tastes in music or they were forced to name their "favorite" band which is pointless. I know of no one who listens to ONE band exclusively. Bono can go choke on a dick. "Intelligent" people name U2 as a band they like because they've convinced themselves he's a philanthropist. Statistics are never meant to be taken seriously, ever. Just look at all the new ads trying to tell you that parents who smoke give their kids asthma. LOL. My parents smoked. I have asthma. However my parents ONLY smoked outside, never around me and I have asthma because I'm allergic to animals and half my family is astthmatic so it was a genetic probability. Mystery solved! I smoked for about 5 years after Highschool and even though I've had asthma since I was four, doctors still try to tell me my smoking twelve years later caused my asthma at four. XD
Comment on Alotta Bucks Coffee (2009-04-16 15:46:57)
@dieAntagonista: The part of my comment that said "deal with it" implies that you either learn to live with capitalism, learn to live with being miserable or just move somewhere you can be happier. People change, sure, but some of them find migration helps the process. I like coffee. Plain and simple. I'll just never understand why people have to get so uppity and make themselves miserable about the fact that I like coffee. Example, opposite side, I think it's dumb that people pay $100 for pre-damaged clothes. But I'm not about to go protest Abercrombie and dig up dirt on them. I just don't care enough to ruin other people's happiness for the reward of... nothing?
Comment on Alotta Bucks Coffee (2009-04-16 13:38:22)
@suicydking: well fuck me then. I've always seen it written as "caddy corner" damn urbanization of the tongue. :P @dieAntagonista: and? Lots of "local" shops have 3000+ calorie crap too (much of it unmarked because only chains are forced to mark their calories). It doesn't matter if the place is a chain or a diner. You still have the CHOICE to eat and drink where you want. So I don't really care what people's preferences are. I'm not about to go protest some joint just because I don't like the coffee there. I hate McDs food, but I still go for the Sweet Tea every now and then because I have self-control and self-respect for my body. It's all about learning to be responsible for your own choices in life and not blaming "big corporations" for every woe in the world. Even Starbucks was just one store originally that sold beans and coffee makers. And if you knew anything about their past you'd know that they were actually bought out by THEIR competition but he kept the name. Capitalism = Competition. Deal with it or move to China.

saad but truuuuuuueeeee.... *head bang*
Comment on Alotta Bucks Coffee (2009-04-16 12:59:33)
@suicydking: It's "caddy corner" and it has nothing to do with ego and everything to do with demand. If the lines are too long and you cannot expand the store due to property laws or space available then it makes perfect sense to just open another one near by. They are every few blocks in Manhattan. same as McD's, Sbarros, etc etc etc... Any place that's popular needs to expand to meet lunch and morning rush demands. It's normal. I swear they need to teach more about marketing or business in schools.
Comment on Alotta Bucks Coffee (2009-04-16 12:55:52)
lol.. people who hate Starbucks have either 1: never been there or 2: like jumping on the bandwagon of hating what's popular. In NYC, Dunkin Donuts is more expensive than Starbucks. No where in Manhattan can you get a bagel for 75 cents besides Starbucks. And they are damn good bagels. Their regular coffee varies because it's a different blend almost every day so if you don't like the taste of teh house blend, get something else or come another day. However, it is still cheaper than most coffee shops. A Regular cup of Coffee is on par or cheaper than Dunkin Donuts, McDonalds and most corner delis. Lastly, their Ice Tea is fucking awesome and only costs $1.25. Aside from McD's SweetTea, that's damn cheap. If you hate it, don't go there. That's how this whole consumer market thing works. No one's forcing you to go there so get over it and go somewhere you do like. Better yet, make your own coffee.
Comment on iCarly (2009-04-08 07:50:48)
I love iCarly and Miranda Cosgrove is hilarious, not slutty. For those who didn't know, she was the bratty pompous kid in School of Rock (the Band Manager) and she was teh mean little sister on Drake & Josh before she got this show. I'm 28 and I still watch Nickelodeon. Afterall, Spongebob is good bg noise while I'm cooking dinner and, I agree, Spencer Shay is half teh reason I watch iCarly. :)
