Hurlshort Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 "Edit: also victims of sexual assault commiting sexual assault is sadly not a surprise, it is a likelihood." Cry me a river. Next you'll say we should feel sympathy for Weinstein ';cause likely he was also a victim of sexual assault. Not sure where I said anything about sympathy. I said it was more likely. Explaining an action is not the same as excusing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Maybe it's my mental illness (being male) but I'm really having hard time seeing this as sexual assault. The guy was 17. Yes, not legal. But I'd bet $1M he was more than willing. Would YOU have told her no? I was definitely not ready to deal with a 30-something year old woman when I was 17. I know you are being glib, but I am glad I had my awkward phase with another awkward teenager. I have also never really been able to just enjoy a physical relationship without getting very emotionally involved, so I am guessing everyone is different.

Maedhros Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Fjords, submerged tunnels, bridges and roads - the ambitious now-in-motion plan to connect Norway's west coast. I'll probably be a relatively old man when it's done...but the first stage of it will apparently be done in 6-7 years, and will reduce the travel time between Bergen (where I live) and Stavanger (where most of my family lives) by 40ish minutes or so. Anything helps, because the current travel time at around 5 hours is far too long when you take the distance into consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smjjames Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Hopefully they're taking sea level rise into account for those floating structures. It'd eventually be a problem for the bridges, but I guess they'll, um, cross that bridge, when it becomes a problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Waste Management has always been a pretty well paid career in this country. I learned that from the sitcom Roc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guard Dog Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I've never been homeless. I have no concept what that might be like. But even if I were I just don't think I'd say "what the hell I'll just take a s--t right here". Maybe dignity is the last thing to go.

This reminded me that I'd read some stories not long ago about Iceland having a problem with tourists pooping wherever they're at while traveling. https://icelandmonitor.mbl.is/news/nature_and_travel/2017/04/05/icelandic_farmer_outraged_as_tourist_poops_next_to_/ https://icelandmonitor.mbl.is/news/nature_and_travel/2018/06/20/tourist_poops_outside_public_lavatory_in_north_icel/ http://icelandreview.com/news/2015/07/13/tourist-defecation-problem-resurfaces https://grapevine.is/news/2017/06/27/tourist-caught-pooping-10-metres-from-busy-highway/ https://grapevine.is/news/2017/06/14/locals-disgusted-tourists-excrete-on-kindergarten/ That's on top of the tourists camping in gardens, in bird watching sheds and doing crazy things like climbing out onto dangerous rocks above falls to take a selfie.

Gromnir Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Ill shovel s**t ALL DAY LONG for $185,000/year. well, take home before taxes is $71k, and in san francisco that is enough to pay for a nice cardboard box in an alley in the tenderloin district. am being hyperbolic, but not by much.
