  1. I've never actually heard any non-Christian have an issue with people saying Merry Christmas. Usually it's people moaning about Happy Holidays - which works as a good catchall, versus :
  2. The teat has some left. I'll end up buying this on sale, though
  3. This makes me wish I had something interesting to do with my life so I can play this in the background.
  4. All we had to deal with was the daily Hail Mary and occasional masses. Joys of Catholic school.
  5. Well didn't way Crypto was bad. Ending sucked and his characters were flat and there was that painful letter to Penthouse. Was going to read Seveneves next actually.
  6. Shame the ending was a bit cliche. But it was better than Cryptonomicon at least
  7. Or only 41 believe they are not. Funny that that breakdown adds up to 101, heh.
  8. Why would you inflict such poor literature on anyone, let alone a child? Well, it'll make them the kind that announce their free thinking status. Close enough, no?
  9. Well people have done it in the past and not like societies were never like that. Can't be harder than raising responsible adults from children. Maybe read Rand to them as toddlers
  10. Well as I said the pledge is really weird to me both in it existing and saying it daily. InfoWars aside, ta. I will give that a look.
  11. What reasons are they giving for wanting the flag or anthem out of schools? Anthem is not needed and even the pledge is sort of bizarre from the outside. Well of course assuming any of that is true beyond FOAF tier sources.
  12. Did you get matched with Dentyne Ice ?
  13. How he didn't see that would be a problem is curious.
  14. Nice to sneak Gun Control in that list Patriotism is pretty mindless when you think about it, is why I detest football fans, people want to act all ultra and get passionate over a symbol, a shirt or 11 dudes sweating on a field.
  15. Not far fetched, but seeing you had a conniption over not meeting the exact request, just thought it'd be funny to point out.
  16. Well Gfted1 didn't restrict it to elected leaders of countries.
  17. Why is Franco not relevant ?
  18. Well, the initial objection is pointless, a superset of the data asked for was given and was a problem...for some reason.
  19. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest-ruling_non-royal_national_leaders_since_1900 almost all are from Africa, rest from commies ruled states And? well he asked about EUROPEAN ones, thats why I pointed that our, don't be touchy I just assumed he wasn't so stupid as to not be able to find the first European going down the list. Silly me.
  20. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest-ruling_non-royal_national_leaders_since_1900 almost all are from Africa, rest from commies ruled states And?

  22. They should have hit them with water cannon. Puts out the fire risk. And an amusing parallel.
  23. Dale Earnheardt calling for a coup d'etat (or a kudatah)!
  24. Funny to see NASCAR in this fuss now. Wonder if that lot will be upset at politics in sport.
  25. World's largest oil reserve, largely untapped. Country nationalized it's entire oil industry which was built on labor of foreign industries and foreign investment. It's now an authoritarian socialist state keen on purging (letting starve) or pushing out as much of it's population as possible to limit how large a population the state needs to support. Famine and riots are rampant. It's a country that large swaths of the population would emigrate to an immigrant country if given the chance due to the current conditions. Something to do with all of that. Yeah but was looking at it from a safety (supposedly, anyway) point of view. Should be every poor country on Earth as well by that metric.
