Is it truly so evil to want to have some free time from the special care of a child?  When you have a paid worker there to take some of the pressures off, are you wrong to take full advantage of your personal downtime? 

I know you were playing devil's advocate, however, getting free time from the care of a special needs child should not include ignoring the needs of the non-special needs child, which is exactly what these fuckholes, I cannot call them parents, are doing.  It is abusive and completely wrong.  Heck, were I the special needs nurse, I would document everything from each visit and turn it in to my supervisor asking for advice.

How can you get so upset over hearsay?

I don't have anything bad to say, so I won't say anything at all

Speaking of Native metal, my buddy who is Native Canadian has a metal band out of Ottawa.. they are heavy!

Is he throwing a pin through glass?

Ya, i know that was a pretty sweeping question, and there are democratic countries that dont like the US all that much; but not to the extent of many in the middle east. I just wonder if the people of Egypt really do want more freedoms and they get it, will they be likely to be less anti-US.

Depends...if they get their Democracy with the Muslim Brotherhood in control, we are gonna have big problems.

What sort of problems?

Ale

I don't like her attitude / personality . If I want a hot AmerAsian I'd pick Kristin Kreuk a million times over.

Because you know so much about Kristin Kreuk's personality?

Or Olivia Munn's?

20% off Lifetime Subscriptions to Champions Online or Star Trek Online.    only $239 to play either one for the rest of your life.


or until they get cancelled.

Hehehe...heh.  I would be so surprised if both were not F2P in 6-9 months.  Remember, LOTRO (in Europe) did the same thing about a month before they announced their F2P plan.

LotRO (North America) had a lifetime option at the beginning.

Ale

Haha... coloreds like fried chicken. It's funny 'cuz it's true.

Ale

Where's the manual? 

it probably got peed on.

The gift that keeps on giving.

Ale

It's amazing to me that if I even attempted to over-generalize the left i'd have at least half a dozen of you up my ass in seconds. But if one of your own do it, none of you will step up against it.

So I guess I could over-generalize lefties for this now?

Haha... it's funny that you think this has never happened.

Ale

McCain wasn't born in this country either, you know.

I don't think he was born on this planet.

Ale

Re-read, dude. Everyone was slamming Matthews too.

dramedy? as in drama-comedy? haha, nice 

Why would you slam Matthews? I thought you were against the PC bullshit?

Ale

Just got a call from the dealer: It's the alternator tensioner and belt.  $490+ tax.  My wallet is sad.

Why does it stop when it warms up?

Ale

sounds more like crack. It isn't like he said CRACKER. He said crack_'er if even that.

Seriously?

 

It didn't sound like that was what he intended to say. Perhaps an aborted crackpot or something else. He's talking fast and calling out a bunch of people. Given that he's just about as white as can be, he isn't trying to single out that race by color . It is funny, but not as funny as the f***ing one linked above.

Super weak, dude.

Getting worked up over a white guy saying cracker is just about as ironic as one can get.

Enjoy your white rage embolism.

Given that an embolism can lead to paralysis or death, the fact that you, Purge, with the title "Gaming Trend Staff", would tell someone to "enjoy your white rage embolism" simply because he called out your asinine opinions on this topic is disgusting.

I was going to work in slippery bathtub bottoms in my response, but broken hips can lead to death in the elderly and the gravitas *cannot* be ignored. I also avoided comments about eating crackers in bed; it would  clearly be in bad taste.

No, instead I'm going to roll my eyes thusly and enjoy the funny found in a person on the Internet getting outraged that some white guy said crack-eh whilst labeling other white people as "birthers" all while the rest of the north American cultures enjoy labeling themselves (eg: n-word) in their humour.

Signed,

A Canuck (look it up, it wasn't affectionate)

PS. That was *on-topic*

Word, cracker.

Ale

Lol. My guess is that Matthews meant "crackpot", but that's a bad slip of the tongue.

That was my thought as well.

Ale

While I appreciate that this thread is marked NSFW, it would be nice if pictures posted here had some humorous quality and weren't just daily T&A.

This. Isn't there a lech thread somewhere?

Ale

It's possible they defaulted you to the internet+basic cable bundle.  When I set up my service at this apartment, I told the guy I just wanted internet, but would take TV too if it was cheaper.  Turned out it was going to be $65 for just internet, or $40 for internet and basic cable, which includes broadcast channels and some others.  I'm not sure why they even offer just internet, since it makes absolutely no sense to ever take that option.

Straight Internet is cheaper for me, even with the $5-10 discount that a bundle would provide.

Ale

The tv scanner did report 24 analog and about 40 digital channels. Some real off the wall stuff, and some foreign programming.

Thanks for the input.

Ale

I pay Comcast only for Internet. By just plugging the coax into my television, I am able to get a couple dozen channels. It looks like mostly what you would get in a basic cable package.

Can Comcast completely shut everything off, or is there always something 'on the wire'?

Would that be considered theft?

Ale

LOL Alefroth!

You have showed up in every one of my posts with worthless shots at me, while never staying on anything remotely related to the topic at hand.

And i'm inflammatory?

I'm flattered you remember.

Yep, calling people cowardly because they won't answer your loaded questions is pretty inflammatory.

I'm not sure why some people waste their time, but the number seems to be getting smaller.

Ale

Can I ask something without it seeming that i'm trying to be inflammatory? Because i'm really not, I just want to understand a little more about how liberals think sometimes.

Will liberals be ok with it if Loughner gets off on insanity defense?

The sheriff has used it as a tool against conservatives and conservative talk radio, and, in my opinion and others, increases the likelihood that he could use the insanity defense and actually get off lighter than I feel he should.

Now, some of you liberals KNOW that you liked that the sheriff tied it in against conservatives. But will you be ok with it if he ends up getting off on an insanity defense?

It's pretty f*ing obvious that your sole intent is to be inflammatory.

Ale

And it's cold, so you have to account for shrinkage.

Ale

Sorry, but that ain't nine inches. Maybe four.

Ale

I wonder how they knew how to do things. It doesn't seem like it'd be obvious.

Ale

In other news...

[we talk about this plane's possible capabilities]

Was it too much to ask that we talk about this plane's possible capabilities, along with China's other potential military advantages in the world? or hell, we could have even talked about any other country's potential military advantages here too.

But I guess attacking FoxNews is the only interest.

Are we just supposed to guess at it's capabilities? Maybe it can pinpoint AMPs anywhere in the world.

Ale

I wish people would get over the notion that running the largest economy in the world is like balancing your home budget or having a credit card.

I've been brewing for 20 years. I'm not sure what comes with a Mr. Brew, but getting a basic setup isn't that difficult and will give you better results than those kits. I've heard of people turned off of brewing because of the kits.

Brewing kettle and carboy are the two items you definitely need. Bottling (and especially washing them) is a pain, but has some advantages over kegging.

Wargus, I think you mean Charlie Papazian.

It's a great pasttime, hope you enjoy it.

Relax. Don't worry. Have a homebrew.

It's not Berlusconi's ego.

Yes, you have never said anything negative or insulting. You can leave with a clear conscience now.

To me, asking an Armenian where the best Armenian food is, isn't the issue. Asking if they all behave the same way, as if they are some stereotypical, homogeneous, group, is.

Ale

What if you asked if the majority of a race or ethnicity behaved a certain way?  Would that be okay?

Not really. But that's just me.

Ale

Aw drat. Thought this might be helpful with my Forza 3 driving hehe. oh well..congrats.

Just want to confirm it improves Forza 3 tremendously.

Change the title to "Are GAY Asian Americans easily offended?" and then I will get involved in this thread.   

WAITASECOND...

You're.... ASIAN????

Not that there's anything wrong with that...


Ale

I think for some of us there is a need to know a little background on this poster as to me the initial thread didn't seem to far out there...

Is it me or is there a history?

History or not, you don't see what's wrong with asking if an entire race all behave the same way?

Ale

i didn't read his first post that way.........I mean if I want to know where X is i would ask the people who might know where X is.........I have lots of Armenian friends, if I wanted to know the best place for Armenian food I would ask them. I guess I am guilty of being naive.

To me, asking an Armenian where the best Armenian food is, isn't the issue. Asking if they all behave the same way, as if they are some stereotypical, homogeneous, group, is.

If I was to go into my girlfriend's favorite nail salon owned and run by Asians, how do you think they would react if I innocently asked about where to go for a good Asian massage?

Everyone knows an Asian massage is da shit, and my gf actually has a thing for Asian girls, so i'd love to get her  a gift certificate for Christmas. But the only advertised massage places in my area are pretty far away. I know they could point me in the right direction at that nail salon, I just dont know the appropriate way of asking 

Ideas?

Why do you think anyone could speak for all Asian Americans?

Well here my impressions of the Cataclysm expansion.   Not impressed.  
  For the people with established characters, there really isnt much to be excited about, leveling wise.

I completely disagree.  Leveling from 80 to 85 was really enjoyable and the questing just shows how far blizzard has come in 6 years.

I'm glad you enjoyed the 3-4 days of leveling they gave you.  For me that short of a time seems very low.  My point wasn't that the experience was bad.  There are some fun and interesting quest lines but when you pay for an expansion that you max out the level on in 3 days, that seems a bit weak to me.  As I said earlier I'm hoping that the end game proves to be more robust because otherwise Ill feel somewhat ripped off.   It seems that they put the majority of their efforts in rebuilding the 0-60 game and making long time subscribers pay for whats basically a rebuild seems disingenuous at best. 

The revamped 0-60 is free.
