Awesome. One of the best. Hilarious (and I was the target of several of his jokes/attacks!) and controversial.

I also salute his courage in confirming what I first said existed: The List. Even though Inks still tries these Jedi mind tricks, saying Sam agreed it never existed even as Sam clearly said it did.

Whether he's an FF or an HP should be clear to anyone who's been paying attention…..not that I expect that many of you are smart enough to realize that.  Look, it should be obvious that the vote in this thread is going to go one of two ways.  I'm pretty sure I know which way that's going to be, but it depends on two factors that you probably aren't considering.

Are you doing your best to imitate the Oracle at Delphi?  Spit it out, MM.

HP, but rather bland at it.

FF. Spade and I were once closer friends than you and I ever were, until you decided I was a narcissistic, self absorbed, out of touch, braggart, who gives long boring yet still irritating lectures, and manipulated the system to try to bring the Update down - or something.  And maybe I have helped Sam mitigate his homophobia a tad to boot.

Get a room ...

FF, of course ... I remember Sam from way back when. In which "Divergent" faction would he belong? Candor? I think so ...

I wouldn't count on it... 

I have to wonder if Torie's going the way of Michael Barone - good political analysis being destroyed by hack politics (and in the former's specific case, homosexuality and drug usage).

In the early returns it is clear that the voting is not going either one way or the other.

I don't think Sam would be surprised he's a polarizing figure, muon.  Smiley

Depending on how you define "full human being" I would say no.  Frankly we shouldn't pour valuable resources into keeping the blacks alive while entire families are having their homes foreclosed on and being tossed out into the street.  Our priorities in America are completely nonsensical.  I've seen black people that don't move, don't speak, who can't even feed themselves be given taxpayer money time after time and have all kinds of interventions done to prolong their lives.  All at the tax payers expense.  If I were to waste money on sneakers and blow, I wouldn't want people to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to prolong my "life."

The hundreds of thousands of dollar that were used to prolong the "life" of a black like Linda Taylor were a complete waste.

Frankly I think all black babies should be aborted.

Wow. Context is everything.

I understand that, but Morden's comment led me to expect something other than a near tie.

Seems a little douchey. Can't say I immediately respect someone who waltzes in with a holier than thou attitude and casually drops that he "makes over six figures" but that it "goes nowhere in NYC."

Although I guess me calling someone douchey is a bit of a kettle/pot scenario.

Well yeah, here, it's absolutely nothing to write home about.

No, earning six figures is a ton of money no matter where you live. Even with taxes and student loan debt.

Credit where it's due to Inks for this hilarious exchange, including Sam's abrupt termination of it when he had no response.
