  1. You know, if we let some snakes loose on the plane it would fix this problem! Is this maybe an origin story?
  2. Or cold... Or hot... But besides this it is very robust.
  3. No, the guy reached out to shake hands across the net after the game and the douche put his paddle out there and when contact was made it came out of his hand. The guy who was assaulted reached over to pick it up and give it back to him and then he was sucker kicked. Guy who kicked him should have been beaten bloody. Fuck sucker punchers
  4. And also “All Hail our new Robot Overlords!”
  5. Based on where the bodies were found, the dog is likely in some shit.
  6. Not that I agree with the statement/motion, but that's not ethnic cleansing being discussed. Israel controls most of the West Bank, and the parts they don't "officially" control they really do. The lives of Palestinians who live there is vastly better than those in Gaza (even before current hostilities) as the infrastructure for roads, power, sewage, internet etc. works and is well run....by Israel. His statement (again, not saying good or bad), is more about that Israel is and has maintained de facto ownership/management of the West Bank for 50+ years and he is pushing to annex the territory to make it officially part of Israel. They wouldn't displace the Palestinians who live and work there and to the every day lives of Jews and Palestinians it would be a fairly negligible change. Politically etc, a big change.
  7. “Sociology Degree Salary in California. $57,700 is the 25th percentile. Salaries below this are outliers. $81,900 is the 75th percentile.“ So starting salary for sociology degree is 25th percentile. That is bottom 25th. Not saying job is “worthless” or you can’t make a good salary with it, but my education and social circles makes me believe that 25% is below average. However, my real point was that Sociology with a minor in Gender Studies (as an example) is a better way to have similar education while providing better opportunities as “The typical early career salary for someone with a bachelor’s degree in gender studies is $28,707, and within five years of graduation, this average salary goes up to $47,704.” So I was encouraging people to get Sociology degrees with minors/focus as I believe it provides greater options and opportunities. This is in light of the removal of degrees from the OP discussion. Sorry if my original point was unclear causing you to get defensive and jump into personal ad hominem attacks.
  8. You should have seen the size of the onion Brat wore on his belt to attract the young lass!
  9. I would agree, but caveat it that while the degree/major may go away, most of the classes should still be available. I would think that getting a degree in sociology with a minor or focus on gender studies, would provide better future employment options while still having a focus someone desires. Now honestly, not sure how great employment is for a sociology degree, but with that it has to be better not to be incredibly limited in what the degree says. But this is just a Dad who has kids going to college who wants them to find a path to success so they can return home to visit and not need to live with us full time.
  10. Is aggy upset that South Carolina used lube? Because from watching the game it sure seemed like South Carolina went in dry and hard all game.
  11. Tell me you know nothing about the State of Texas without telling me you know nothing about the State of Texas.
  12. Like their 3+ required pieces of car flair, this self “branding” is a great help to normal people.
  13. I remember stories but struggle mightily with names. I have read books about remembering names and tried to use the methodologies they talk about, but just can't make it work. However, when I meet someone I will later remember all the details they discussed about their life, job, family etc...but name....nope. Also the "Inner Monologue" described in the original video does not really do mine justice. I don't have ADHD, and I can be very focused on task or actions or projects. But for me when I pull back from a task oriented work my mind just goes. I argue (internally) different sides of an argument or question, or work to defend a position. If not that then I make up stories or comedy routines or anything. For dreams, I can't remember the last dream I had. I have had some, but I just don't wake up and remember them. I also find myself to be very good company.
  14. Shouldn't this say "fan showed out"?
