When your national policy is “la-la-la-not-listening”.

…get fucked USA.

Unless I’ve misunderstood, which is entirely possible, HOA people aren’t anonymous remote bureaucrats - they live there, don’t they?

Antagonising someone with batshit stuff like this seems like a good way to cause significant problems. Such as being forced, through the threat of mortal violence, into a situation involving arson. It feels like a plausible level of rage in response to this kind of unreasonable arseholery.

As in:

being an absolute piece of human garbage + easy access to the threat of mortal violence = bad news bears

In a nation of so many firearms how are these people ballsy enough to pull this nonsense. It seems like a great way to end up trapped in a burning house.

As in pissing off someone that lives in your neighbourhood by being this level of awful seems like a supremely bad idea.

A family with a child murderer as its head is obviously more honourable than the alternative. Morons.

“Debate”? What fucking “debate”?

Someone suggests something comedically fucked up and it’s now a debate?

Shut the fuck up and sit down, you VC cunt. No one wants to hear your clown-show takes.

Anyone that couldn’t tell you were being sarcastic isn’t worth your time.

You can grab the hash and bang it into a magnet link converter like this one: http://www.romanr.info/magnet.html

That’s the name I danced under in college.

…constantly fails the engineering exam… …constantly eats roast beef…

I love Red Dwarf so much.

Don’t go to the nazi bar.

Is ran?

That’s just what they want you to think.

It’s really tragic how these people never learned to build an identity of their own and fall prey to these “secret knowledge” patterns of thought.

You’re not more special than other people due to the legal fan fiction you’ve concocted. However you are special in the sense that I wouldn’t let you near my family.

Oh America, get it the fuck together.

What a soundtrack!

Is the goal to ensure the US falls behind the rest of the world?

That’s an interesting way of phrasing “has actively enabled corruption for decades”.

I was fortunate to find something that I have enough skills for but I absolutely agree on the polymath thing. One would think that it’d be a useful skillset to have but I don’t think most businesses can grasp the concept. As a result my employer doesn’t receive anywhere near the benefits they could from me.

I’m reminded of Louise Belcher describing safety tape:

Gene: Are we safe here? Louise: Of course! It’s safety tape. They can’t just call it that if it’s (screaming as the mechanical shark smashes through the safety tape)

It’s the same reason I look both ways before crossing the street even if it’s a one-way street - just because something isn’t allowed doesn’t actually stop it from happening.
