Why are you already introducing politics into this discussion?

You call shaving cream on the hand a prank? VANILLA! (just kidding) Idk. I guess we were bad kids when I grew up because we would hack each other's runscape accounts and stuff and drop each other's stuff or transfer it to a fake a

Jeez let's call the FBI because of these high school friends playing pranks on each other. Maybe we can get one a criminal record or a large fine. That'll really solve this "problem" and teach those kids "lessons&qu

Jesus what an overreaction. You've never played a prank on someone or had one played on you? My friends and I in high school did this exact kind of stuff and it was a lot of fun. We just learned to be paranoid about being pranked, it w

I use it daily. I'm indifferent to it. What I love though is that I now have TouchID on the power button. That's what makes it great. The customization is nice, and I find I hit the play/pause buttons on the touch bar if I&#x

So, I have nothing against what you've listed here, this is great stuff. What I find interesting for me personally is that it never once crosses my mind who the author is or what their skin color is or anything like that when I'm

Not to mention that these "highly skilled people" being referred to in the article don't really exist or aren't really affected by the H1B Visa issue. We're talking hordes of JS devs working for Infosys for relative

But even when NATO/the West does more than the bare minimum, the whole world criticizes, NATO fails at the mission, and we just spend a boatload of money. All I hear is how we're intervening in everybody's affairs, until some

And as an American citizen I'm very glad that we aren't contributing to the problem by absorbing a lot of refugees. We should be providing aid, and if necessary, peacekeeping support so we can get these areas on their feet. The so

Oh she did a great job at Yahoo! if you use the right measurement: shareholder value.

Ya you do. Otherwise nobody would have been talking about it. The cultural norm when somebody mentions baking in this context and "boys doing it" revolves around things like cupcakes and cookies and what not. It's obvious. It

by muninn_ 9y ago
Right but you are doing so in an disingenuous way. I like baking too. Referring to "girls baking" implies cupcakes, cookies, frosting, and cakes. All of which are impractical while camping.
103.
by muninn_ 9y ago
Sure ok. Clearly when we think of "having boys bake" we're talking about Dutch ovens and not baking cookies. Yup.
104.
by muninn_ 9y ago
Sure let me pack icing, maybe some cupcake molds, and a pie dish too? It's impractical.

by muninn_ 9y ago
I don't think you're being manipulative, but you are certainly oversimplifying the issue here. Of course everybody deserves a good job or good opportunities. But, just as such, everybody deserves happiness or kittens, or a good ed

Why not SSTEAMMG? Social studies, Science, Technology, Electronics, Art, Math, Music, Gym class?
107.
by muninn_ 9y ago
But if you introduce it as cooking, that's a whole different ball game. Besides, baking is a little bit impractical while camping compared to, idk, cooking eggs over an open fire? I'm not really against the STEM push in Girl Scout

Well when you put it that way, of course. But it's not that simple.

Why would an American not get a passport? That doesn't make any sense. But to your larger point about nations speaking other languages on the doorstep of the U.S. -> keep in mind that "on your doorstep (aside from Mexico and Qu

I just logged in to say this (trying to comment less and read more) but this needed said. Even with a vanishing middle class, the middle and upper class that remains still have largely great healthcare and healthcare plans, it's the po

Agreed.

by muninn_ 9y ago
Yes, but I could spend that time doing something else. It's opportunity cost.

by muninn_ 9y ago
Well sure, but what's the point of learning another language if you're an American if you will almost without exception not ever need to speak anything other than English in the United States? Even if English wasn't the lingu

Well, it's not even a metric, so that's the first issue. Second, I'm not a utilitarian. But the issue with it, for me, lies in the ambiguity of what "general welfare" means. If you have a bunch of people driving car

by muninn_ 9y ago
Ok sure, and maybe I'll also stop using the TSA and funding war. Both easily justified under "promoting the general welfare".

Well, I mean ultimately it'll ruin the quality of life in Brasil so the government not doing something about it is really shooting the country in its own foot. If you are Brasilian you shouldn't need some sort of incentive to pres

Although I largely agree I don't really like the "promoting the general welfare" line of reasoning for justifying things.

Plus, then I have to give you fake name, fake email, fake number, etc... and it's like why bother... Moving on.

Sure so why do we have a double standard in the West?
