The inability for a person to have their online persona is Facebook's and all other user-generated content/Social Network provider.

"Some might consider that a feature." Yes, and those people would be rather utopian about how a lack of anonymity helps clean up the internet. Most trolls are proud of their idiocy.

They certainly do not. Western Union has more to lose.

"Refusing to take preventive measures could potentially be called selfish" The problem isn't just the illness clouding the need for them but also that there are sometimes more significant side-effects as well.

"1. In point of fact, much scientific evidence shows that depression is a physical illness, not a mental illness." A false dichotomy there. "Psychiatrists and psychologists, of course, insist that depression is a mental illne

I was responding to the "they didn't reason themselves into". They most certainly used a reasoning, just one grounded in sophistry, not reality.

"The "comedic banality" nonsense is tiring." I like dick jokes as much as the next person, but they have to be funny. It's not as "shocking" as you think. It's cliche.

"It a) offsets our risk" You could simply hire better employees rather than disrespecting your candidates. I wouldn't bother pretending that it has anything to do with "risk management". At best, you sound extremely

Disagree. Even smart people believe dumb things because they have a greater ability to rationalize their choice of beliefs. Not saying that creationists (YEC or otherwise) are generally smart, but a lack of "reason" isn't alw

And? The problem is the Employee That Is Wrong, not the free soda policy.

I've grabbed a few for mixers at home. I don't fill my bag with them. It's a fairly loose delimiter.

As a former contractor, I saw the occasional bag full of milk cartons. I find it weird. I don't think it's worth a crackdown or treating the employees like babies, though. It is true that no matter how much you pay a person, they can still

And the rest of the ecosystem. I do hope the new incarnation of Live allows for PC/One simultaneous play.

Thanks! Which "dealership feeds"? What they pay for cars at auction?

Or get an auto broker through your credit union.

Do they follow the black book value?

I find that more likely.

" wonder why someone as Chomsky doesn't question the whole Bin Laden story a bit more thorough" Because he has enough reliable knowledge of the US' operations that he doesn't need to become a conspiracist to explain it all.

"highly agended" I don't think there's much of a clearly defined "agenda" other than pagehits. This sort of trolling is no different than their Camille Paglia: "Sarah Palin, Best Feminist?" or "Ask a Wingnut!" vein of trolling.

"Every time people say 'What's the problem if they're obeying the law?'" I find that only slightly less annoying than the people who think that the solution is loophole-ridden "flat" taxes.

Evolutionary psychology is a collection of these "just-so" stories, they apparently don't have anything else to publish, and no one ~should~ take them seriously.

"If this were just about me being unlucky, I'd be able to do that." Exactly, this is you being unlucky and constantly throwing yourself under any bus-like object that crosses your path.

"one of those stuck-up companies where if you get a bad performance review, you can never move to another project" Ah yes, putting the employee on "probation" and awaiting any reason to let them go.

"Yeah, but those are just questions on paper! They after me lucky charms!" Don't Libertarians preach contract supremacy?

I don't see gender-neutrality as terrible for the workplace, even if I am a hugger by default.

by illuminate 13y ago
Backslapping without a hug is definitely weird.

Never visit Miami. Hugs AND kisses are routine (and contextually appropriate.)

Fascinating, I tend to offer first to avoid the awkward lull of waiting to see who would otherwise, I rarely ponder how that would be taken.

I get the reference, with the PUA suggestions elsewhere in the thread, I couldn't tell if it was sincere or not!
