Post by: opebo on October 16, 2004, 01:42:26 AM opebo, you've probably answered this a lot, but I've never read it. Why are you in Thailand? I prefer living here to living the the States: better climate, much better food, and Thai women are nice. Most importantly I can live like a king here on my income, instead of merely middle class like back home. For example living in a hotel a few steps from the beach costs about $180 a month with maid service, and a delicious meal - with fresh ingredients (something you don't find in the US) costs about $1. But though Thailand is my favorite, there are many other countries I'd like to try, particularly in South America generally. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Post by: Bono on October 18, 2004, 11:47:09 AM opebo, you've probably answered this a lot, but I've never read it. Why are you in Thailand? I prefer living here to living the the States: better climate, much better food, and Thai women are nice. Most importantly I can live like a king here on my income, instead of merely middle class like back home. For example living in a hotel a few steps from the beach costs about $180 a month with maid service, and a delicious meal - with fresh ingredients (something you don't find in the US) costs about $1. But though Thailand is my favorite, there are many other countries I'd like to try, particularly in South America generally. You should try Somalia. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Beefalow and the Consumer on October 22, 2004, 09:25:40 AM I'm young enough and I STILL think of the Orioles when I hear Miller...He's got one of the best voices for announcing in all of sports. That SOB Peter Angelos basically fired him. I think it is safe to say that Angelos is not my favorite person. I still stick by the Orioles -- even though they suck. Palmeiro is my all-time favorite player (got to meet him in person years ago at a "Baysox vs Orioles" game. I was jaw-dropped and he jokingly replied "I'm his cousin." I still can't believe Bowie has a AA team. They stared play several years after we moved to Wisconsin. The sad thing about the O's is that they have no excuse for their suckage. At least the Brewers can claim the whole small market / small payroll sob story. The O's spend a fortune for their 70 wins year after year. Still, I stand by them... and my Cubbies in the NL.

Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Colin on June 09, 2005, 02:38:35 PM Religion: Quaker (well, I want to be anyway.) You're converting to Quakerism? It's a very respectable religion Sure beats Catholicism. It just caught me by surprise. Actually, it is called the Society of Friends. Quaker is like Mormon in the sense that what the adherents are called seems odd in view of the actual name of the denomination. I know that.

The Inquirer is probably the most quoted paper in the state. Also, many left wing groups have been using that quote in their ads.

No, probably never will be Wait a few years and don't give up. It will get better for heavier guys as they get older. Just show success or the fact you will be, a personality, and know how to treat a woman and you will be fine. I also dare say you should assess your standards and plan accordingly if you know what I mean. Of my past 5 dates only one has in normal weight range and she had some personality issues such as she didn't get out much and was scared to death of the city. She was also very timid when I dance with her at McFadden's. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Dr. Cynic on July 14, 2006, 06:08:11 PM It's not that I have no confidance.

My first girlfriend broke up with me when she found out I was a Democrat. They were breaking up with you anyway. It seems like bullsh**t excuses as to why. I've gotten what I did for a living along with living with parents as another good one. I only accepted a few reasons, most of them are excuses. I once had a grad student who was bogged down and I could tell in her voice she really was so I bought it. The one after that said she had work the next morning at 8 and I asked her to go to another bar in Manayunk. I didn't buy that because I said we'd go for drinks after dinner and she said nothing about work before. You have to think in terms of whether you buy it or you don't. I don't know your situation but you have to move on. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Dr. Cynic on July 17, 2006, 09:34:43 PM Well, there's not much I can really do about it now, Flyers.

Also, the Catholic Church and the Confederate States (http://www.sspx.ca/Angelus/2005_June/Catholic_Church_Confederate_States.htm). Pope Pius IX supported the confederacy and saw the American North as having "threatening tendencies" (probably because of the Norths' harsh repression of Judiasm and Irish Catholicism). States, Just curious. The irish that fought for the south...were they irish catholics or Ulster Irish/Scots-Irish/Orangemen (Presbies) It is said that the American Civil war was just an extension of the conflicts between the British, Scots, Irish and Welsh. The North, was of course, dominated by people of British stock descent, while the south was a whole hodgepodge of groups, mainly Scots-irish/Scots/irish/welsh. I believe their was actually a mix of Irish Catholics with the other groups you've mentioned. For example my wifes ancestors were all Protestants of Irish descent. Title: Re: All about yourself!

I didn't know I had to Convert :P Actually I am still United Methodist--albeit I haven't been to church lately.To answer the main question, the Irish who fought for the Confederacy were almost exclusively of protestants of Northern Irish Descent, their ancestors of course being largely Scots-Irish Presbyterians and Anglo-Irish Episcopalians . Most of these soldiers had descended from Soldiers who fought with Washington in the Revolutionary War--as had my family. Now, in some states, Florida, Louisiana, and South Carolina, there were enclaves of Catholic Confederates, but they were far outnumbered by those of Protestant descent. Of course, that was a direct opposite of the Union forces where the Irish soldiers were primarily Catholic. As far as famous Celtic Confederates: Patrick Cleburne, PGT Beauregard, Robert E. Lee, Thomas Jonathon Jackson(of Ulster Descent), JEB Stuart, and Jubal Early to name a few. Title: Re: All about yourself!

I think I need to hire someone to sit down, create a database, and let them plug all of this data in and create a "tree" from there. However, some parts which I was able to read and understand was how my great great grandfather was a miner in England, some of my relatives were indoctrinated with the Cherokee shortly before they were forced to travel down the Trail of Tears, and some of my relatives were a part of the Shelton gang in Illinois during prohibition. Outside of that, it's just names, dates, and places for generations of my relatives and their in-laws. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Swing low, sweet chariot.

Post by: Bunwahaha [still dunno why, but well, so be it] on June 25, 2008, 01:31:28 PM Well, after 254 messages here's a short presentation of what we could call my person:
Age: born the day where Yannick Noah won Rolland Garros. You can search and calculate. Oh ok, ok, I'll avoid you searching, I'll give you the date, 1983. Will you succeed in calculating alone? ;-) Race/ethnic composition: I tend to be what we can call "white", and when the sun shines I take some colors which tend to brown, but just on arms, because I use to be in T-shirt. Then, I'm French, and as far as I know, my grand-grand-parents, I've not other origin. Religion: Baptized Roman Catholic, went to catechism 2 years when child, did my 1st communion, but to me what some call "God" is just a spiritual concept, so I don't believe in what some call "God". Religion? I think it will be THE point of this century... Height: I don't know with english measures. Weight: Same thing, I don't know with english measures. Location: Geographically, I'm currently in a village of the South West of France. Mentally, I use to try to be where the future would be... I don't say I succeed in, I just say I try... Occupation: Watching and wondering, and currently I also help my father who is setting on an exploitation of organic vegetables, that's why I'm in a village. Party of Choice: I don't have one, I no more really believe in politics. Don't you remember? I've already told you. I think THE point will be religion... Favorite President: Well, I'll say of the 5th French republic, Charles De Gaulle. Favorite Sports: Hmm, I would say soccer, maybe cycling too, but anyway I don't really practice each of them. For me sports became more something that happens on TV. And on TV, I can watch a lot of different sports, that's interesting, especially concerning the place it takes in our modern societies. Favorite Book: I don't have read a lot, and I think that book is a dying format, and that writing will have to find new ways of existing and also to do a large place to video. This said, there are 2 books I liked a lot: "1984" by Georges Orwell and "Brave new world" by Aldous Huxley. Favorite Movies: First, a Japanese one, "The glamorous life of Sachiko Hanaï" (2003) by Mitsuru Meikei , I really recommend it, I really love the provocating lightness and humor of this movie, that's not for children, very explicit. Second, "Un film parlé" (2003) by Manoel de Oliveira a Portuguese, I think the film is very pertinent concerning what it says about our epoch and the end is surprising. Last one, "O'Brother", with G. Clooney, I love the lightness of this movie and also the soundtrack. Favorite Show: If that means my favorite TV series, that's unmistakably South Park, even if in France it is on paying Channel that I don't have. Favorite persons on Atlas: I love everyone, and even outside of Atlas! Favorite Colors: Here's something I never really wondered about, I know the colors I don't like, but my favorites, I can't really say... Your other Interests: Watching, wondering, being on the Net, especially writing on forums. Do you live by yourself? No, at my father's home. Do you have any siblings? 2 small brothers, 4 years between each brothers. Are you married? No, and as far as know, I don't really expect to be one day. What year did you join Atlas? 2007 Do you have any nieces, nephews? Strange question, no, I don't. What's your favorite candidate from the 2 major parties? Wow! Well, I prefer the personality of Obama, but I don't feel he is enough strong to well manage the power in this epoch. Maybe I'm wrong. What city did you grow up in? My parents moved a lot during my childhood, so I moved a lot with them, quite only in the south part of France, in different places of it, in different sorts of places, in country, in different middle cities. Have you ever been attracted to someone of the same sex? Hmm, no. If you could pick your own nationality, what nationality would you pick? If ever I would have to do such a choice, I'll analyze the present situation and I'll choose what I'll consider as the best for me. Presently, I've no problem with the French one, which does not mean that I have no problem with France... ;-) Post the most recent picture of yourself here: I don't have some on the computer, and I'm not a fan of being pictured, this said, I'm not always looking to avoid it, but I don't really look for it. Well, here we are, all questions answered. To finish this presentation, I would like to say that I'm aware that my English is not very perfect and very rich, but, indulge me, I'm French! I don't say that only for joke, in France, we do as if everyone was speaking our language abroad, so we don't learn foreign languages very well, especially english. We are not the only one to do it, but these who speak English can do like it, us, we just can't! More of that we don't really accept words from abroad, we often try to translate everything in French. Well, this said, this way of thinking goes down and down, and is anyway downer than in Quebec I think. Here, youth don't really care about it, and in their language there must be at least 1/4 of english, at least! Well, well, well, what to say after it...? Hmm, I'm really interesting in trying to see what could happen in the future, and I try to do it without telling me some fairy tales. I do it because I think that if we want to give us the best future and to take the best decisions at present, we must wonder on what could be the future. I think that for humanity short-term is a non-sense, the only possibility to continue is to think in long-term. So, you can imagine what I think of our epoch... Well, well, well, other things...? Hmm, I enjoy Atlas, the fact to can meet peoples from different part of the world, even if quite all from West, and to can discuss of what's happening in the world. Yeah, I enjoy that. So, and I'll finish this presentation message by this, Thanks! Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Sarnstrom on June 26, 2008, 12:15:35 AM Gender: Male

I have no idea, but it isn't a white African ancestry if that's what you're getting at. That's what I said and my grandmother made it VERY clear there was a black influence in our genealogy. :P I'm not sure I buy it, but apparently her cousin spent years researching and compiling our family history. I think it's funny either way, just because of what I look like, that there even could be black mixed in there. No, I wasn't getting at anything. I was just wondering if your ancestors came from North Africa, south Africa, west or east. Title: Re: All about yourself!

I suppose no teacher ever hated me, save maybe for the Grade 8 Art teacher, Mrs. Soni, since I pissed her off intentionally all the time. She yelled at me in Grade 9 for ditching all the NJHS meetings. Maybe Harriman hates me now if he ever found out what I did to him. Title: Re: All about yourself!

One recommendation I have is that you consider majoring in Accounting or a hard science in college, so as to qualify you for jobs in tax law or patent law. I, unfortunately, majored in Finance. Best of luck to you. Let me know if you need any help/advice. P.S. Should you graduate from UVA Law, I'm sure you won't have any trouble getting a job regardless of what your undergrad major was.

Corportate attorneyrs are generally the cream of the crop, so it's definitely something to shoot for. A finance degree will definitely help you in classes like Corporations, Securities Regulations, Mergers & Acquisitions, etc., but it's not required.

I'd have expected those clowns to care a lot about that and make yet another stupid fascist rule. Madeleine Meilleur, the Liberal MPP for Ottawa-Vanier. She's also Minister of Community and Social Services and Minister of Francophone Affairs. Title: Re: All about yourself!

"I can't beat myself" - Elliott Smith. he was talking about heroin but there are a lot of physiological similarities. except what those people have to go through is 100x worse in every way imaginable. I can get an 'A' on any paper I choose to spend an hour on but I'll never beat nicotine. I'll take it to my grave. that's all about myself.

(the amazing thing is, a majority of you will look at those emotions/feelings and want to tax them) I experienced withdrawal after I stopped taking pain medicine that was prescribed to me that my doctor told me was not at all addictive. Well, I can tell you that it is! It was probably the most awful feeling in the world. I couldn't sleep, I was sweating, I felt extremely depressed, and my entire body hurt 10 times more than it did before I ever started taking the pain meds. I called my doctor right away and he got me back on the prescription and weaned me off... then it was painless... but I will never do that again. No matter what medicine you take, ALWAYS wean off of it no matter how redundant it may seem. Withdrawal is one of the most stressful things you can put your body and your mind through.

However, I have to agree that I knew I was straight when I was 14. I was very much attracted to girls and never cared for guys. I would assume that gay kids would know they were gay by 14 years old. I'm no expert though. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Ban my account ffs! on August 03, 2009, 05:53:47 PM You can work at age 14 in the U.S. in certain jobs, but the rules are strict.

About the only places that employe 14 and 15 year olds are fast food restaurants and occasionally places like grocery stores (grocery baggers/carry out) Title: Re: All about yourself!

About the only places that employe 14 and 15 year olds are fast food restaurants and occasionally places like grocery stores (grocery baggers/carry out) Thank you. It's more or less the same thing in France but with a starting age of 16. Then, when you get 18, the majority, you're considered a normal worker. But, very few places employ people at 16, they consider it's too much constraints. Most of the time when you want to work before 18, you have to take illegal ways, most of the time that's in restaurants, for plunge or service. And the few places that make legally work between 16 and 18 are also more or less the same places you referred to. And who does it the most? An American company of fast food. That one which is almost the only one US company of fast food here...Mc Donalds. Actually out of Mc Do, I don't think there are a lot of places in which people between 16 and 18 can legally work. The only ways to go in the professional life before 16 is to make a "contrat d'apprentissage", a contract of apprenticeship literally, which you can start at 15 and maybe 14 but not sure, there are have been debates to change it for 14 a few years ago, don't know if it changed. These contracts permit to a young to learn a job by spending a big part of the time, the major one, in a work place, most of the time that are for eating jobs (bakery, restaurants: service and cookery, butchery, etc), and anyways it uses to always be for handicraft jobs, and the other part of the time in a training center. Each contract are concluded for 2 years. Though, even when the apprentice make the job of a normal employee, they have very low wages, very low, about 1/3 of the French minimal wage IIRC. Here is for France. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Free Palestine on August 04, 2009, 11:44:48 PM Age: 17.

Post by: Torie on December 27, 2009, 05:21:16 PM I am a white single 58 near atheist dirty old man. I hold a license to practice law, and sometimes get paid for some facsimile of actually doing that, when I can fit it into my otherwise busy schedule of what some may characterize as deflective hedonism. I lost a lot of weight in the last year. I am more proud of that than anything else I have done in life in some ways, because well, it was not something I had ever succeeded in doing before. I have been under a lot of stress with family issues lately. I love history, economics, sociology, anthropology, and geography, and used to love politics, but less and less now as to that. I may (or may not) add to this in due course, regarding music, books, love, passions, hatreds, neuroses, hangups, hobbies, etc. The end - for now.

Gender: Male Race/ethnic compostion: English/Scottish/Jewish Religion: Family's mostly Pagan/Wiccan, I'm more of an Asatruar Height: 5'9 Weight: 180 lbs Location: Rural Ontario Where you were born: Ottawa, Ontario Occupation: Reserve Artillery, History/PoliSci University Student Person you most admire: Batman. Or Churchill. Maybe. Favorite Band: Hmmm. Maybe ACDC or the Beatles. Favorite President: Either Teddy Roosevelt or Reagan, probably. Favorite Prime Minister: I rather like Diefenbaker, have voted for Harper's Conservatives every time I could. Favorite Sports team: Ottawa Senators Your other interests: Politics, History, nerdy stuff (Star Wars/Trek. Batman. Etc.) I posted a bit when Kerry was running for president, then a few more times when Obama was. Something compelled me come back here and post for some reason. Don't really know why. Was wondering if anyone could give me advice as to the more appropriate avatar. Last time I was here, I put it as R-ON, because I've only ever voted for the Conservative Party of Canada (or the PCP of Ontario). Within Canada, I'd be somewhere in the more Liberal wing of the CPC, with a mild Libertarian bent. However, transplanted into the US, I'd actually likely become a Liberal Democrat without changing a single idea. Heh. Either way, I sort of like the Blue avatar better, because I've only ever voted for Conservative parties, and tend to identify with Conservatives more, in general. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Basically, because of his push for alternative energies, his push for real cooperation in the Middle East (i.e. the Camp David Accords), his willingness to not simply bow down to Israel, and, of course, his work after the Presidency (Habitat for Humanity, etc.) Title: Re: All about yourself!

Still, I hold many of his ideals to heart. I believe he was too brutally honest with the American people when they were looking for a message of hope for the future. People don't like a negative Nancy, even when things are in the sh**tter economically and politically. So as a president, Carter was mediocre.. but as a human being, he is a great man.

Truthfully, he had a crapy Presidency. That doesn't mean what he tried or wanted to do (and in some cases succeeded) was bad. But, he was too stubborn. He refused to work with Dems. in Congress, and refused to play politics as usual. That makes for a great campaign theme, but it's horrible politics. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Post by: seanobr on December 04, 2010, 02:20:02 AM Almost every post I've made here has been on the topic of North Korea, and since I'd rather not have anyone presume it's an obsession, I've decided to introduce myself:
Gender: Male Race - Ethnicity: Predominantly Irish Religion: Roman Catholic Height: 5 ft. 10 in. Weight: 160 lbs. Sexual Orientation: Straight Party of Choice: Republican Favorite President: For the enormity of his achievements, Abraham Lincoln, but honorable mention to James Polk for his efficacy and Richard Nixon, in deference to the complexity of the man, his intellect, foreign policy, and pragmatism. Founding Father: As a Catholic, I can forgive John Jay's bigotry and recognize his career of service and staunch abolitionist beliefs. Invariably Admire: As the first presidential election I was cognizant of, it's interesting reading about the John McCain of 2000 vintage, wondering what might have been and lamenting the eventual erosion of his convictions. Dan Gurney. David Souter. Jeane J. Kirkpatrick, for being a forceful advocate at the U.N. Every son who has a close relationship with their father feels a strong admiration there, even moreso if you don't have siblings like myself. Favorite Book: I was rather enamored with The Foundation Trilogy and its prequels and sequels when I was younger. Something I have in common with Paul Krugman, evidently. Magazine: I'm a subscriber to The Economist. Favorite Shows: Fareed Zakaria, Political Capital with Al Hunt, BBC World News on PBS, The Lively Experiment. Diverging away from current events, Alec Guinness as George Smiley in Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and Smiley's People, simply the best television I have ever had the pleasure of viewing; Seinfeld, Quantum Leap, and The Twilight Zone. I enjoyed the original CSI earlier in its run, but eventually migrated away from it -- the hour long crime drama genre has run its course, I think. I also secretly appreciate the first three series's of a certain science fiction franchise I'd rather not publicly embrace the stigma of. Music: I have to confess that I'm simply not much of a music person, but generally my tastes trend toward jazz and classical. Favorite Sports Team: Boston Red Sox. I was a supporter of Renault Formula One this year, but that can change. Interests: International relations and foreign policy, auto racing, golf, baseball, naval history, writing and debating, technology, moderate conservatism. Have you ever been attracted to someone of the same sex? Never. If I could pick a nationality: Actually, I quite like being an American and don't believe one's objection to our government has to evolve into self-loathing. But if dissent is the highest form of patriotism, then pride in one's country must be tempered by accountability and circumspection. I see nothing wrong with apologizing for America when it's the correct thing to do. No one is infallible, and it's narcissistic or delusional to suggest otherwise. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Хahar 🤔 on December 04, 2010, 02:46:27 AM Favorite Book: I was rather enamored with The Foundation Trilogy and its prequels and sequels when I was younger.

Caution to everyone considering chemistry: don't. :) Unless you really want to. Person you most admire: Person, eh... that's a tough one. There are a lot of influential and important people I can name, but I don't wanna sound boring. How about... Kristen Wiig? For the sole reason to turning SNL from a sh**tfest to bearable. :) That's an accomplishment. Favorite Band: Have you ever gone through that phase where it's like, you only listen to one artist for a month or so? Or worse, only one album? Right now for me, it's Tegan and Sara, and I feel like I'm entering that phase. I gave their album "Sainthood" a listen on Friday, then I listened to it again, and again... and sh**t. I need to pull myself out. I also love Metric. A lot of Canadian bands are good. :) Favorite President: Gosh, I dunno... LBJ passed some pretty significant legislation. Favorite Sports team: Don't watch sports. Your other interests: Love video games and manga. Kinda nerdy, no? Going out is also fun (kinda vague, I know, but I just like being out). Chemistry is also fun (I hate it during the school year though). Being gay is also pretty boss as well. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: HagridOfTheDeep on July 22, 2012, 11:05:56 PM I never did one of these. I think my hackish debut is slowly coming to a close, so maybe I'll talk about the real me for a little bit. :)
Age: 20 Gender: Male Race/ethnic compostion: White, and very Canadian. I think my latest ancester to be born anywhere else would be a great-grandparent. And they would have just been born in England. It goes back even further on the other side of the family: a bunch of German Canadians from Pembroke, Ontario who were here before Confederation. Religion: Presbyterian with agnostic tendencies. I'll never backtalk the church atmosphere though, because I've honestly recieved nothing but support. I like the secular aspects of it a lot. Height: 6'2"ish? Weight: About 200 lbs? Location: Mississauga, Ontario and Kingston, Ontario. Where you were born: Mississauga Occupation: Student Person you most admire: I have a hard time with questions like these, mostly because I'm too selfish to ponder them often enough. :P It would have to be people I've known very well: my grandparents. They're four very distinct people, but I see a lot of them in me. Favorite Band: Not actually much of a music person. I've got a real hard time hearing the words in music... The vocals usually just meld themselves in with the rest of the instruments. If I had to pick though, I guess I'm in a bit of a Simon and Garfunkel phase. Favorite President: I'm bad at this. I kinda enjoy the political game of winning elections more than I enjoy getting involved in policy. From what I've read though, I guess I'd say Madison, Lincoln, Eisenhower, and Reagan. Favorite Sports team: Toronto Maple Leafs Your other interests: Playwriting, reading, bagpiping (yes, I play the bagpipes), film, camping, fishing, road trips, and eating Southern food.

Favorite Sports team: None. Name: Justin Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: anvi on July 24, 2012, 08:55:20 PM The only real updates I'd make after one year is that I'm one year older and my favorite band/musician has become Neil Young, especially the old-fashioned acoustic Young of the early to mid 70's. I've been learning to play his songs on guitar all year and can't stop listening. The rest is pretty much the same.

Gender: this is the internet, what do you think? Ethnicity: WASP and Polack Religion: Short answer- agnostic. Long answer- the evidence indicates there probably isn't a God, but I understand the human need for worship and have even felt it from time to time. Every few years or so I contemplate becoming a Quaker. Place of Birth: I grew up right near the diner where Tony Soprano gets whacked to the strains of "Don't Stop Believing". Current Location: deep in the middle of Brooklyn, recently moved from West Philly. Occupation: Overeducated and underemployed. Favorite Music: Paul Simon, Spoon, Sufjan Stevens, Igor Stravinsky, Bela Bartok, John Adams, Radiohead, Beatles, The National, Johannes Brahms, Gabriel Kahane, etc. Basically a smorgasbord of classical, classic rock, and indie-ish stuff. Favorite Authors: Bill Watterson, Umberto Eco, Jane Jacobs, Don DeLillo, T.S. Eliot, William Carlos Williams, Matt Yglesias Favorite Sports Team: New York Giants. Wide Right was one of my first-ever memories... and Ray Handley was one of my second-ever. Favorite Presidents: Teddy Roosevelt, John Quincy Adams, Jimmy Carter (obviously the Washington/Lincoln/FDR trio was better than those three, but that's a boring answer). Favorite Politicians: Rush Holt, John Hickenlooper, Earl Blumenauer, Michael Bloomberg, Antonio Villariagosa, Frank Lautenberg, Tammy Baldwin Political Orientation: In UK terms, I'd preferably be a Lib Dem with some Green leanings. Though who am I kidding, Duverger's Law would force me to vote Labour. Strong liberal on the environment and social issues, monetary dove, technocratic, more centrist on labor and foreign policy but even there a smidge left of the USA average. My technocratic streak occasionally leads to iconoclasms where I support libertarian methods for green ends (such as taking an ax to things like anti-density zoning regulations and the mortgage interest deduction), but as an overall philosophy libertarianism is naive and dangerous hogwash. Other interests/hobbies: public transportation, maps, art, Modernism, useless trivia, cocktail snobbery, strategy boardgames In conclusion, I am basically the perfect target audience for this thing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_BQE_(soundtrack)).

I am very much so a libertarian, but not a fan of the party. I vote for anyone who upholds liberty, be they a Democrat (Kucinich), a Republican (Pauls, Lee, Cruz, Amash, Massie), or a Libertarian (Gary Johnson).

I'm 100% sure I'm not a Libertarian and I'm wearing the avatar for ornamental purposes. What you fail to realize is that long before Government was the "big, evil, awful" thing that Libertarians view it as, markets were making people richer than would ever be necessary. Tell me, how would the free market resolve wealth inequality? The answer is, it doesn't. Libertarians like to believe that the free market is the answer to all of America's (and the world's) problems, when in fact it caused most of those problems in the first place. It was the free market that created wealth inequality, and encouraged/encourages it in modern society. The first "rich" people--the ones that made more money than others when America was first becoming an industrial nation--did not hold that much more wealth than say the "poorer" Americans. What happened was, the industrialization expanded and corporations were born. Corporations exist to ensure that a sort of oligarchical system be upheld throughout the monetary system. Meaning, the CEOs of the biggest companies are ensured a lot more money than the lower classes (about 350-400 times as much money, to be exact) for doing quantities less work. They deliver a cheap, but "okay enough" product onto the market, and consumerism ensures that it is eaten up without questioning exactly what it is or how it was made. The problem is that such a small amount of people control such a disturbingly large portion of the wealth in this country (and world) and will only end up controlling more. Is Government doing anything to stop it? Not really, and certainly not as much as we should be doing. But that's because corporations have the power of Government. We need leaders that will not be afraid to stand up to corporations and strip them of their power. The voice needs to be returned to the average citizen, and the wealth with it. I'm not talking about full-fledged socialism, I'm talking about equality. Where the poor aren't as poor and the rich aren't as rich. No one in this world could possibly need a billion dollars for their own use. They just invest it so they can make more money that they won't spend. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Sure, a perfectly free market in a perfect world would work very well and would be better than every other option. But, the market isn't free, even if state doesn't involve with it. In many areas, there is only one business offering a service (monopoly) or only a couple ones, which often cooperate with each other in order to bring prices higher and to ban potential competitors from entering the market (oligopoly). Free market can only work with small businesses, because the big ones always finish by changing the rules of game in their advantage. Why food in convinence stores is more expensive than in groceries? Because grossists are selling food cheaper to the groceries. And there is plenty of exemples like that. Big corporations and businesses are too well integrated and built to allow free competition. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Age: 42 Gender: Male Race/ethnic composition: Foolish question to ask a genealogist. (We don’t give short answers.) My dad’s side is pre-Revolutionary American, so about ½ English, ¼ other British (mainly Scots-Irish), and ¼ German. There’s also a trace of French. My mom’s parents were Donauschwaben, from the Balkans. Going back to the early 18th century, her ancestry would be about ¾ from modern Germany and about ¼ from other German-speaking areas, especially France, Luxembourg, and the Czech Republic. Religion: none. Religion is totally irrelevant to my life. Height: 5’-10” in my head. Actually, I think I’ve shrunk to 5’-9”. (So, about 175 cm) Weight: 160 lbs/73 kg Location: Merriam, in the Kansas suburbs of KC Where you were born: KCMO Occupation: architect Person you most admire: Nelson Mandela. I’ve always been impressed that he lost 30+ years of his life to prison, yet didn’t seem to hold a grudge. Unlike, say, Mugabe, he seemed more interested in building democratic institutions in his country than in his own personal aggrandizement. Similar things could be said about George Washington. Favorite Band: The Bangles? Seriously not a music fan. But I’m impressed that they managed 4 pop hits that sound nothing like one another. Favorite President: Washington. For reasons stated above. Favorite Sports team: Reinforcing the gay stereotype, I have no interest in sports. Favorite television shows: Doctor Who, starting with the Donna Noble era. Currently Awkward., even though I’m “too old” to be watching MTV. From the past, I have a special soft spot for Daria. Politics: Pragmatic liberal, for lack of a better term. Not activist enough to be a “progressive”. I’m proud of the Americans With Disabilities Act, because it broadened the ability of Americans to contribute to society, and I’m relieved that the unexpected consequences for once turned out to be mainly positive. I’m very American when it comes to free speech issues, and I would oppose any laws attempting to ban Holocaust denial. While personally somewhat conservative, I would take anyone calling me a political conservative as slanderous. Your other interests: Genealogy. I would love to be published in the National Genealogical Society Quarterly, if I ever solve any of the three problems I’ve been working on for the past five !#$^@&^! years. Also, I play trick-taking card games with groups twice a month. I can’t really stand politics, but I adore political demography. Have you ever been attracted to someone of the opposite sex? No, except for maybe Jordana Brewster. Favorite quote: From Douglas Adams, don’t remember exactly, but something like “As Kate lay beneath a pile of rubble, she was relieved to know that she hadn’t been merely imagining that this was a bad day.” Title: Re: All about yourself!

Non-negotiable policies: permanent WPA to guarantee full employment, Medicare for All, federally capitalized state banks, bailout underwater homeowners, dissolve the TBTF banks because "regulating" them is kabuki and a fool's errand (clue stick: regulatory capture), Congress selected by lottery (makes campaign finance reform(TM) moot), and dissolve the Fed/return the power "to coin money and regulate the value thereof" to Congress (per Article I, Section 8, Clause 5). Especially furious for being sucked into the Dem veal pin for so long, as they are able to get away with more egregious upward wealth transfer and imperialism than their Repub "opponents" could ever get away with, meanwhile using identity "politics" are their carte blanche.

Age: 19 Sex: Male Gender: Male-ish Sexual orientation: Gay Race: White Ethnicity: Italian Religion: Atheist Language(s): English and some Spanish Location: Kalamazoo, Michigan Place you were born: Flint, Michigan Occupation: College student, Aviation Management and Operations major with the intent of pursuing an MBA Political figures you most admire: Lyndon Johnson, Gerald Ford, Harvey Milk, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Wendy Davis, Ann Richards, Jerry Brown, Dianne Feinstein, Pierre Trudeau, Justin Trudeau Favorite president: Lyndon Baines Johnson Political orientation: More of a moderate progressive. The reason being for that is because most of my political views have come more into the mainstream since I started getting interested in politics. Back then if you openly supported same-sex marriage and won elected office, you had to have been from Massachusetts as that was the only place you'd have a shot at getting elected. I'm pro-choice and being from a small, blue-collar town, I'm pretty pro-union. I call myself a Democrat simply because Democrats align closest to my views and the Republicans right now are just insane. The main thing that makes me a liberal is the fact that I'm a pragmatist and that ideology has never solved a problem, created a job, or pulled anyone out of poverty. If you met me, you'd find that I'm pretty candid and I think that plays a bit into my political views, is that I tell it like it is. Favorite book(s): "Are you there vodka? It's me, Chelsea!" Favorite TV show(s): Family Guy, The Simpsons, The Rick Mercer Report, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Law and Order SVU, daytime trash TV, The Ed Show Favorite movies: Shawshank Redemption, Prayers for Bobby Other interests not involving politics: Traveling, aviation, sports, and psychology. Favorite color: Blue Favorite Sports Team: Michigan, Western Michigan, Detroit Red Wings, New England Patriots Do you live by yourself? For the most part. Do you have any siblings? One younger brother. Do you have any nieces, nephews? Nope, and never will. Have you ever been attracted to someone of the same sex? What do you think? Relationship status: Forever alone...

Gender: Male Race: White (Italian, Finnish, German, German Jewish) Religion: Atheism (ex-Catholic) Height: The doctor's office says 5'6 and 3/4". My New York Driver License says 5'7". My Massachusetts ID says 5'8". Weight: ~115 lbs (fluctuates between 110 and 120 lbs) Born: Staten Island, NYC, NY, USA Location: Staten Island, NYC, NY, USA Occupation: Writer for a politician's office Hair and eye color: Blond hair, brown eyes. Siblings: 1 sister Relationship Status: Single at present Member of Atlas since: 16 April 2009 Sexual orientation: Gay Political ideology: Progressive, with left-libertarianish streak Personality: I don't know, weird, esoteric, abnormal. My personality varies widely depending both upon my mood on a particular day and on whether I am have taken any medications or drugs that alter my personality. Some days I am extremely introverted shy and quiet, while on other occasions I crave social interaction and can be excessively talkative. Languages: I'm fluent only in English, my native language. I've studied Latin, Ancient Greek, Russian, German, Italian, and Arabic, however I've forgotten nearly everything that isn't Latin or Russian (and maybe a tiny bit of German). It doesn't help that I haven't done anything since graduating college to actually practice or study or use any of the foreign languages I studied. Favorite TV Shows/Movies: It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The Office, Game of Thrones Favorite Video games: Pokemon, easily. No other game has caused me to sink so many hours of my life trying to "catch 'em all" since I received Pokemon Red Version for Christmas as an 8-year-old. I also like fantasy RPGs like the Dragon Age series and Elder Scrolls series. Being immersed in total fantasy worlds like Skyrim- or Johto- to me Favorite Sports: Hate sports. :P Other interests: Reading (mostly nonfiction but trying to read more fiction), wasting time on the internet, history, politics beyond psephology, theatre (especially musical theatre), poetry (though I'm still too shy to take part in any of the poetry readings I go to), social activism, psychology Do you live by yourself?: No, unfortunately, due to financial constraints Have you ever been attracted to a person of the same-sex: Yes Countries visited: USA (duh), Italy, Austria, Russian Federation, Bahamas, Curaçao (then still part of Netherlands Antilles and technically part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands :P) Title: Re: All about yourself!

Otherwise, most of that other stuff should allow you to fit right in. What's so bad about Cuomo? He seems like a pretty reasonable, moderate, pro-business Democrat. If you've been stalking the Individual Politics section long enough, we had an Andrew Cuomo vs. the World series where this forum voted for Hitler over him in addition to several other unsavory figures. He is a pawn of the Wall Street elite who beat forum darling Zephyr Teachout which becomes even more shameful considering his wonderful father. But you'll learn more soon enough if you venture into that section. I believe another Cuomo poll is about to evoke a response. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: traininthedistance on January 07, 2015, 08:06:45 PM Favorite Politicians (contemporary): Joe Manchin, John Kasich, Brian Sandoval, Scott Walker, Andrew Cuomo, Justin Amash, Rand Paul, Heidi Heitkamp........quite the smorgasboard, I know. :P You should probably leave or never mention that again. Otherwise, most of that other stuff should allow you to fit right in. What's so bad about Cuomo? He seems like a pretty reasonable, moderate, pro-business Democrat. As one of the leading lights of the Atlas Cuomo Hate Brigade, let me just go on record as saying that I'm far more disturbed that you're a fan of the Vikings and the Packers. I mean, either one is fine but both is just wrong. But, to answer your question for serious, in my case it's because my particular area of expertise as it were is public transit and other urban infrastructure-type things, and my sense is that Cuomo has shown a special disregard for best practices there (e.g. throwing away years of planning process to push an unnecessarily large, transit-free, fiscally irresponsible Tappan Zee replacement; arranging shiny photo-ops for "kick the can down the road" MTA union contracts all the while raiding from their balance sheet and preventing discussion about sustainable revenue sources, etc.). Basically, if he was really a "good government" moderate I'd actually be totally fine with that even if I'd be to his left. But he's pretty obviously a bad government moderate on some of the issues where I'm actually informed and qualified enough to pass judgment. That's admittedly an idiosyncratic reason, more people will probably cite his picking a fight with the teacher's unions or something. That and collaborating with Republicans to perpetuate a gross gerrymander in the State Senate, which is... well... yet another shining example of that "bad government" moderation. :P Sorry for the mini-firehose of polemic there.

I played baseball in high school but decided I just wanted to have a regular college experience and not deal with being an athlete; I probably could not have started D1, either.
I am fairly liberal on a lot of political issues, but I feel very strongly in "reforming" the Republican Party to what I think Abraham Lincoln would want it to be rather than running for the Democrats (whom I certainly don't agree with 100%, either) or sitting on the sidelines as an Independent. I'd describe my political views vaguely like this (TNF is barfing somewhere reading this): - Pro-business. I believe what is good for business is ultimately good for the economy ... yeah, shoot me. - Pro-small government EXCEPT when it comes to protecting civil rights - Pro-environmental protection - In favor of a strong American presence in the world, militarily and diplomatically I have a very close group of recently graduated friends (we're all 22/turning 23) that goes out and drinks far more than we should but has a damn fun time doing it.

I am fairly liberal on a lot of political issues, but I feel very strongly in "reforming" the Republican Party to what I think Abraham Lincoln would want it to be rather than running for the Democrats (whom I certainly don't agree with 100%, either) or sitting on the sidelines as an Independent. I'd describe my political views vaguely like this (TNF is barfing somewhere reading this): - Pro-business. I believe what is good for business is ultimately good for the economy ... yeah, shoot me. - Pro-small government EXCEPT when it comes to protecting civil rights - Pro-environmental protection - In favor of a strong American presence in the world, militarily and diplomatically I have a very close group of recently graduated friends (we're all 22/turning 23) that goes out and drinks far more than we should but has a damn fun time doing it. We also very much mooch off of one of my friend's lake cabins. :) That is LITERALLY all I can think to say about myself, haha. That's all good and all, but we're going to need some more selfies.

Post by: Oak Hills on July 21, 2015, 08:37:48 PM (Why are Democrats red and Republicans blue here?) First of all, welcome to the Forum! To answer your question, the standard red for Republicans and blue for Democrats did not become established until after the election of 2000. Before then, some TV networks would use the current standard scheme, and others would use the reverse. Dave Leip started this website in I think 1999, and chose to use red for Democrats and blue for Republicans. It's also more in keeping with how parties are color-coded in most foreign countries, where center-left parties tend to be red and center-right parties tend to be blue (altho there are many exceptions). I promise you if you spend enough time around here, the reverse color scheme will start to seem normal to you. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: MisSkeptic on July 27, 2015, 10:34:04 PM Age: 18

Naegleria Fowleri is an amoeba that is highly prevalent in soil and water.

There have been 138 official cases of the disease, although thousands may have occurred because most cases are determined only by autopsy. The only way to completely and absolutely guarantee that you will never, ever contract this disease is to avoid any and all swimming in fresh water, even water with chlorine as the amount of chlorine may not be sufficient to kill the amoeba.

Vasectomy failures happen at a rate of about 3/1000-1/100, depending on the source you believe. 3. In addition, it's also possible a women could use paternity fraud, rather than actual vasectomy failure. 4. Let me use an analogy. Naegleria Fowleri is an amoeba that is highly prevalent in soil and water. This amoeba, if it attaches itself to your olfactory nerve, will travel up to your brain and will eat your brain cells, resulting in an almost incurable condition called Primary Amoebal Meningitis.

Would you advocate avoiding a regular suburban pool out of fear for this disease? 2. Please look up the law of truly large numbers, though. 3. Yes, but some vasectomies genuinely do fail! :( 4. No, I wouldn't. After all, orchiectomy plus my choice of HRT certainly isn't comaprable to not winning in fresh water. Plus, unlike the risk of being forced to pay child support after one has penis-in-vagina sex with a fertile or potentially fertile person of the opposite sex, the risk in your scenario above certainly doesn't appear to be either sex-specific or gender-specific. Indeed, the egalitarian aspect of orchiectomy certainly extremely strongly appeals to me. After all, as I previously said--many women can unilaterally get abortions in the event of an unplanned pregnancy; in contrast, I myself certainly cannot do this. Thus, getting an orchiectomy is certainly the best available option for me; after all, just because biology is unfair certainly doesn't mean that biology shouldn't be made fairer.

In regards to the "highly unlikely and hyperbolic" part, my own response to this statement of yours is this: You certainly don't know me. Indeed, I was certainly being completely, 100% serious in regards to this. :( After all, I am certainly not going to react very well to (cumulatively) losing tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars simply as a result of having penis-in-vagina sex! :( Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Speedy on August 03, 2016, 12:41:21 AM Hello, everyone! Many moons ago, I used to post here quite a bit (some of you may remember SpeedOfSound), but since so much has changed since then, it made sense to start over. I'm probably just around again for the election cycle, like I was briefly in 2012. I'm now a PhD student in Classics (Roman History specialist) in Texas, but not a whole lot else has changed. A mid-20's white dude living in the city on a grad student's budget. I'm still a far leftist who splits his ticket between 3rd parties and Democrats, an atheist, and a vegetarian. Still an avid sports fan, videogamer, and indie music fan. I hope to have some fun here on the political old stomping grounds and hopefully I'll still see some old souls I know hanging around this place. See y'all around!

Post by: I’m not Stu on November 21, 2016, 04:09:43 PM I am a libertarian leaning moderate conservative independent from Southern California. I think that cutting corporate taxes in my state will help business grow and create jobs. I am what a "moderate Republican" today should be. I am to the left of most Republicans, but I am also well to the right of most Democrats. I think the Affordable Care Act needs to go. I support free market solutions to healthcare. I believe a higher minimum wage will make the standards of living better. I believe lower taxes and a higher minimum wage will help economic conditions. I support same sex marriage. I would like a 15% flat income tax to simplify the tax code. I support free trade without protectionism, but not the trade deals like NAFTA and TPP that erode sovereignty. I support keeping Medicare and Medicaid as is. I support the Social Security "lockbox" act to keep the funds in Social Security. I oppose privatization of New Deal and Great Society programs. I think Dodd-Frank needs to be repealed because it it a burden on businesses in the country. I am pro-choice as long as abortion is within 20 weeks, with exceptions for certain circumstances.

Post by: Beet on January 18, 2017, 11:08:05 AM Handling a spouse, live-at-home children, and a single family home means that you are more likely to have given over much of your life over to a huge pile of responsibilities. I would guess the average forum poster is not a married,kids,home type. Single people are more likely to have the time to make psephology and/or racking up thousands of posts about politics on a message board a hobby. Heck, I bet some people leave this place after they get a significant other.

Single people are more likely to have the time to make psephology and/or racking up thousands of posts about politics on a message board a hobby. Heck, I bet some people leave this place after they get a significant other. On the other hand, I've seen other online forums (for example a couple DIY forums I visit) where a lot of the posters are middle aged with houses, spouses, and kids. House/spouse/kids take up time, but not every waking moment. So, selection bias for all forum-posting is probably too broad. I think it's probably a "seed culture" thing. Plus, as you get older you realize these ideological antler-rasslin' sessions are usually a waste of time, and what's an even bigger waste of time is saying inflammatory things online for the "naughty fun" of seeing people gasp and sputter. This means if you're going to talk politics online, you tend to either just seek out enclaves where people agree with you and can talk about "what to do" or else you seek out calm, polite, intellectual venues where you can quietly and slowly push around ideas. I don't know yet if this is one of those, still finding out. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Most of this has been some variation of the first post in this thread, which provided a template. Over time people added some other fields, but since many are indeed not married and may not own their own home, it was never incorporated. Even when I posted in this thread, I simply used the set of questions used by some poster before me and made a couple changes that I thought were relevant (or declined to answer certain questions). If that poster had included "Married" and/or "Own my own home," I'd probably have answered both. I'd like to say many other people would have behaved in a similar fashion.

Also, housing prices (at least in Israel) are extremely high. Owning your house is not that easy. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Tricks33 on February 07, 2017, 02:18:56 PM Age:

You're right about the soundtrack too. I remember when I saw it the first time, I thought the end credits song was just so fitting and pretty, I had to look it up right away when I got home from the theater. I haven't actually seen the Time Traveler's Wife, so I should definitely check that one out. If you like time travel, you might want to try Safety Not Guaranteed too.

Post by: Lambsbread on March 16, 2017, 10:10:03 AM Sexual Orientation: straight but prob would smash tranny tbh Religion: Athiest but do on occasion go to Buddhist Temple in Brooklyn Location: The Hipster mecca of NYC Political orientation: Libertarian Socialist () A Libertarian Socialist believes in a welfare state but not a nanny state. I think we should have universal health care, free college, etc... but people should be able to do what they want on a personal level. Drugs should be legal, no drinking age, prostitution legal, all guns should be legal, etc... Libertarian Socialists also believe that people should be self-sustaining within a socialist system, which kind of sounds like a bunch of anarchists living under pure communism. It is nice to say that people should be able to do what they want, and I agree with that, but slapping the "Libertarian" tag onto it means that you cannot dissociate the fact that Libertarianism economics and Socialist economics cannot be mutually exclusive.

Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Sir John Johns on July 21, 2018, 07:18:56 PM Let's redo it:
Age: 34 Gender: Male Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual Race/ethnic composition: White (French); more precisely ~70% Breton, ~20% Provencal/Languedocien, ~10% Norman, Champenois, Italian and Swiss Religion: formerly an agnostic, now an atheist Height: too tall Weight: too fat Location: somewhere in the Breton countryside in a place with an awful Internet connection Birthplace: Concarneau, Finistère, Brittany, France Occupation: Unemployed :( Languages: French (Native Language), all your base are belong to us English, Spanish (very mediocre level), remnants of German and Latin. I’m way better in writing than in speaking (yeah, this tell you how awful my spoken English is) Relationship: Single Person You Most Admire: my grandfather, who came from a very poor and underprivileged Breton migrant background and integrated into middle class through instruction and hard working. Also developed my taste for reading and my interest for history. If I should pick someone who is famous, then François Cavanna (well nobody knows him on this forum but whatever) Political Party: none. French political parties are all horrible Political Orientation: a confused mix of environmentalism, social democracy, (non violent) anarchy and social liberalism. Yeah, that doesn’t make much sense; I’m better to tell what I really hate in politics: populism, authoritarianism, religious fundamentalism and ideological dogmatism Favorite President (US): Abraham Lincoln Favorite President (France): Charles de Gaulle is easily the less awful of the modern ones. If we included the powerless presidents of the Third and Fourth Republic, then Armand Fallières, who seems to have been a nice guy Favorite Politicians (living): ugh. In the US maybe Bernie Sanders, in Europe Pedro Sánchez seems the less awful. In the rest of the world, I can’t deny I quite like Lenín Moreno (don’t approved all his policies but his personality and background are pretty great), Malala Yousafzai, Julio César Trujillo. And of course, my ironic hero, Abdalá Bucaram Favorite Politicians (historical): my laundry list of historical figures I like for their ideas or their personality is composed of King Henry IV of France, Voltaire, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Paine, Eugène Varlin, Louise Michel, Élisée Reclus, Susan B. Anthony, José Martí, Georges Clemenceau (not a fan of his late career though), Jean Jaurès, FDR, Léon Blum, Jean Zay, Carlo Rosselli, George Orwell, Jean Moulin, Clement Attlee, Pierre Mendès France, Tommy Douglas, Rudy Dutschke, Alexander Dubček, Chico Mendes. Additionally people I don’t approve their politics but find interesting: Robespierre, Talleyrand, Fouché, Napoléon III, Gustave Hervé, José María Velasco Ibarra, Richard Nixon, René Lévesque, Mathieu Kérékou, León Febres Cordero Least Favorite President (US): Franklin Pierce Least Favorite President (France): Nicolas Sarkozy tied with François Hollande Least Favorite Politician (US): Lyndon LaRouche Least Favorite Politician (France): Nadine Morano First Election: 2002 French Presidential Election (voted for Besancenot, lol) Favorite Music Genres: Pop Rock, New Wave, Psychedelic Rock, Jangle Pop Favorite Band(s): XTC, The Dukes of Stratosphear, Elvis Costello, The Smiths, The Beach Boys, The Clash, Cleaners from Venus, 10cc, The Velvet Underground, Squeeze, They Might Be Giants, Robyn Hitchcock, Jacques Brel Favorite Book(s): not a big reader of fiction, especially not of classics.

Come and See, Aguirre the Wrath of God, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, The Truman Show, See You Up There, Fargo, The Big Lebowski, Ed Wood, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, Castle in the Sky Favorite Video Game(s): Civilization IV, Age of Empire II (yeah don’t have played video games in ages) Favorite Color: green Favorite Sports Team: in soccer, usually root for which ever team is opposed to Paris Saint-Germain. Don’t really care about other sports. Favorite Food(s): green pepper and tomato salad, honey roasted Camembert, croque-monsieur, vanilla ice cream Favorite Drink: coffee Favorite Candy: Quality Street chocolates Your Other Interests: history, Latin American and African politics, mapping, comics (Uncle Scrooge, Calvin & Hobbes, anything by Franquin or Goscinny, Gotlib’s Rubrique-à-brac), (very) amateur theatre, watching hilariously bad musical video or political ads, wasting my time and my money Least Favorite Music Genre(s): really not a fan of rap, heavy metal, hip-hop, techno, reggaeton, or technocumbia. Also never managed to get into Breton traditional music. Least Favorite Band(s): definitely Robbie Williams for his terrible cover of Making Plans for Nigel Least Favorite Book(s): Sartre’s Existentialism and Humanism. Had to read it for school but, despite not being a very long book, I failed to finish it. Guess philosophy isn’t my cup of tea. Least Favorite Film(s): I was bored to death watching The Intouchables, supposedly one of the funniest French movie ever. Also Taxi 2 was painful to watch; the following ones are reputedly even worse but I haven’t the courage to watch them Least Favorite TV Show(s): any ‘reality television’ program. Also, never find Family Guy (sorry BRTD) nor South Park even remotely funny Least Favorite Sport(s): Auto racing, it’s so booooring. Least Favorite Sports Team(s): Paris Saint-Germain Least Favorite Food(s): I almost vomit the only time I have eat an andouille (not a true Breton), so that Least Favorite Drink: Once I mistakenly mixed black coffee with mint tea, it had a very bizarre taste Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: The world will shine with light in our nightmare on July 25, 2018, 04:39:15 PM Favorite Band: Yellowcard Huh, never would have guessed you were a fan. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: SingingAnalyst on August 04, 2018, 10:11:08 PM I teach mathematics full time (at the high school honors and college/university level).
The aspects of politics that appeal to me most are the chess-game aspects (with red and blue states and counties replacing black and white squares and pieces) and the statistical aspects. Perhaps only baseball has more statistics readily available. I am also interested in demographic changes in the parties over time. Historically I have voted Republican for President (from 1984 through 2008 I voted GOP 6 times and for none of the above once). I voted third party in the last 2 elections and regular vote a split or mixed ticket. My attraction to Atlas is (1) exposure to various points of view in a respectful form and (2) learning about or becoming aware of political or social trends I may have been unaware of. Hobbies: Karaoke, board games Trivia: I didn't eat my first slice of pizza until I was 15. I ran for treasurer my junior year in high school, losing by about 5% of the vote. (My campaign slogan was "It Makes Sense... and Cents". I shared a university dorm with a nephew of Alan Dershowitz. My Linear Algebra teacher in college was Glamour Magazine's Woman of the Year.

Post by: SingingAnalyst on August 17, 2018, 07:16:53 PM Rather than be seen as creating a thread "all about me!", I'll just post here.
It's Friday, August 17, 2018, shortly after 8 PM EDT. My high school students return to school Monday. My university students return the following Monday. In addition, I am beginning a masters program in Liberal Studies and Leadership. (I already hold a masters degree in Applied Statistics). At a relatively advanced age (I turn 52 in a few weeks), I look forward to learning more about my society, my country, and the world, and how to effectively lead in such a way that promotes the good that humanity has to offer. Not only that, but I am planning to learn to speak Polish! (I have no Polish ethnicity that I am aware of, but a lot of my friends, neighbors, and associates do). I have much to lean on: my Catholic faith, my public school education, the support of my family and friends. I feel I am reasonably informed, but I just want to say that the last few weeks of interacting with participants on the Forum (at times intensely) has caused me to examine some of my assumptions and, I think, made me a better person. I sincerely hope you (the reader) feel the same about my posts, if that is what you seek from this Forum. If not, then I hope at least you aren't too bored or wish I would go away. I will be very busy, and my visits to this Forum in the coming months will probably be few and far between. I look forward to this coming school year, and perhaps sharing a few of my newly-learned tidbits on this Forum. Happy posting everyone! Title: Re: All about yourself!

Non-political hobbies: Biking Favorite Food: Sushi Favorite color: Gold Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: un on October 23, 2019, 05:47:06 PM Well, to start, I'm currently a sophomore in high school, with an interest in electoral politics, as well as an interest in healthcare and economic policy. Male, White, come from British, Irish, French, and Norwegian ancestry, in other words, your average Minnesotan, which is my home state, obviously. I'm an agnostic atheist, but see the benefits of moderate religious activity towards someone's mental well being, despite the fact I don't participate in them personally. I identify as an independent social liberal, who believes in equality of opportunity, not an equality of outcome. I'm a strong advocate for universal healthcare, a mix of third way and progressive taxation, electoral reform of the EC, and the abolition of political parties. I supported Bernie Sanders in the 2016 primary, due to his policy on universal healthcare, as well as my dislike for Hillary Clinton. Once the general election hit, in the school elections they had, I picked Hillary over Trump, due to her being the lesser of two evils to me, and since Minnesota was very close in 2016, I figured if I was actually voting, my vote would matter a lot in the long run, leading to my choice to picking Clinton. As of now, I'm supporting Andrew Yang for president right now, since when compared to every other candidate on both sides, I relate to him on most issues. My main non-political hobbies mostly consist of gaming, and making various maps, both political and non-political.

Welcome the forum! 2. This board (Forum Community) is a good place to get a good feel for the forum's culture, and the "Talk Elections Q & A" board is the best place to ask nuts-and-bolts questions about how this community operates. We have a lot of in-jokes, technical and cultural site quirks, and intracommunity history and social dynamics that can take a while for newbies to get the hang of, but you'll pick up on them after posting for a while if you decide to stick around. I think it's worth it; to my mind this forum is the single most knowledgeable and least toxic community for both electoral analysis and general-purpose political discussion on the English-language internet. Welcome again! The more the merrier. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Post by: Anzeigenhauptmeister on February 05, 2021, 06:35:45 PM Just in case you wanna see where I was born and raised: Last week, the heute show (mostly comparable to Last Week Tonight with John Oliver) aired a (satirical) report about Brunsbüttel. That city of about 14,000 inhabitants is known for its (meanwhile decommissioned) nuclear power plant and for its entrance to the Kiel Canal. (Its English naming is actually pretty unfortunate, as Kiel lies at the other entrance to the Canal; in German the water path is therefore simply called North Sea-Baltic Sea-Canal.)
And exactly that canal, which provides a crucial shipping link between the North Sea and the Baltic states, led to the occasion of the TV report: the German-American trade relationship; Brunsbüttel has been planning on constructing LNG terminals - the first ones in Germany ever. The crux of the matter: Fracking will have been employed in order to extract the gas that will be shipped from the USA to Germany. Ecological crusaders are therefore up in arms about that project. And yes, Brunsbüttel is really as bleak and dull as shown in the clip... ::) Title: Re: All about yourself!

I liked Trump in 2016 but I think he gave in to the establishment too much. I liked Bernie in 2016 but by 2020 he went too woke. I like Tulsi Gabbard, Josh Hawley, Andrew Yang and Tucker Carlson and describe myself as an independent. I am firmly anti-establishment and hate both parties, but hate the democrats more because them seem like more of cucks. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Sure, but I have to look at the cowboy posers more often. I think a perfect comparison would be how people in post-war Europe resented the Nazis more while people in post-war Asia resented Imperial Japan more. It's not a competition, both were evil, it's just the those with first hand experience with one are going to hate that one more. That's how I feel about the fake cowboys that live in suburban homes and drink light beer at chain restaurants. Title: Re: All about yourself!

Post by: Kleine Scheiße on May 12, 2022, 07:33:20 PM FUN FACT ABOUT ME: I only post bangers
Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Kleine Scheiße on May 16, 2022, 08:40:50 AM I just found out that my husband of thirty years has been having an affair with my niece's pharmacist's dog groomer. Thirty years down the drain. I think I'm going to vomit. How is it possible that we're not having the best of years?
I'm so disgusted that my first thought is to go get the gun. What's a woman to do? This started about a month ago. I'd always been suspicious of the pharmacist because he's a womanizer and has about fifteen cats. And my niece works for him, so I knew she'd been seeing him. And I think he always wanted my husband more than he did me because my husband's very attractive and I'm old and a little bit frumpy. And he's had an affair with every woman in our town (my husband included) except for me. I didn't confront them for a while because my husband always felt bad and would always apologize. And I didn't say anything because I was hoping I'd somehow see the relationship end on its own and we could all go back to normal. But it didn't end and it's gotten worse. I think this is the worst it's ever been. My husband and my niece are both at work and she has to travel a lot. They stay at her house when they go out. I have tried to confront her about it because she's so obvious and there's no way I can ignore her, but I never see her outside work. I can't go over there in person because she lives ten minutes away and my husband can't be gone that long. So it has to be done online. So I've done some snooping and found a lot of inappropriate things. But I still don't know for sure if they're having sex. I'm not going to put my husband through that. So I thought I'd do the same to her but then realized I'd have to talk to her first because the other night we caught each other on camera doing something. It had to be done the night of the party at her house because if we'd waited until the next night, the camera would have been turned off and he would have gotten to her the next day. So I looked at the camera for ten minutes and it was at the right angle to see if there was any sex, but it wasn't. But that night there were many, many, many texts between them. My husband had to leave because he was late and his wife was getting ready to go out with friends. I called and asked to speak to her and she told me to come over in person because she didn't have the time, so I hung up the phone. She knew I was calling her, and I think she knew I was going to show up at her house that night because I asked her to text me, but she didn't. My husband is away this week, so he won't see. I'll show up this weekend. Does she expect me to just let her go? It'll kill me. She's the worst kind of person. Title: Re: All about yourself! Post by: Cassandra on May 19, 2022, 09:35:27 PM I have absolutely no idea which thread to post this in, but does anyone else despise affluent suburbanites that listen to Garth Brooks, drive overpriced disgusting pickup trucks, and pretend to be cowboys/cowgirls even though they've never worked outdoors nor lived outside of a suburb in their lives?

Post by: 𝕭𝖆𝖕𝖙𝖎𝖘𝖙𝖆 𝕸𝖎𝖓𝖔𝖑𝖆 on June 18, 2022, 01:59:14 PM Today marks my second anniversary on this forum, so it is time for a new update. Not much has changed since last year (actually very little) but still.
Age: 21 Gender: Male Sexuality: N/A Ethnicity: Italian Nationality: Italian Religion: Christian, Roman Catholic Height: 173 cm Weight: 60 kg Hair colour: Brown Eye colour: Green Birthplace: La Spezia, Italy Residence: La Spezia, Italy Other places I have lived in: I rented a house in Pisa for a while, but I hardly ever went there so this is just for the record and does not really count. Education: Scientific high school diploma Occupation: None. Mathematics student at the University of Pisa. Relationship status: Bachelor Languages: Italian, English. A smattering of Spanish. I can understand other Romance languages variably well, better if written. Best day of my life: Unsure but probably 25 May 2019. I went on stage at the civic theatre with my high school drama class for the last, and most gleeful, time. Worst day of my life: 21 November 2020. My then-girlfriend broke up with me, ending the only romantic relationship I have had so far after more than four and a half years. Political party: Independent Political orientation: Last time I just said "Catholic" - looking back right now that feels like hybris... however "social-democrat" is very boring (and in my personal view the deriving values are similar) and any other answer would be too unwieldy and perhaps pointless. Interests: Mathematics, geography and travel, politics and elections, data mapping, religion and theology, linguistics, literature, music, stationery, nib pens and other ~retro~ objects, collecting playing cards, trying foreign cuisines.

"stretch opportunity in a seat where there are no other options than them or a tory MP I particularly dislike" is what it would take to maybe vote for them lmao) - would generally be a more progressive Dem in the US - some of my interests outside of elections are music (into a lot of stuff but rn I generally gravitate towards like, post-hardcore, alt rock, uk garage, and pop. my last.fm username is also lyhom so maybe check that out if you want a better explanation), video games, and tv (usually game shows or reality shows tbh) - haven't really posted much because frankly I don't have many interesting things to say or special knowledge on stuff tbh. getting kind of sick of not being able to see images though so maybe I'll get to 20 posts soon Title: Re: All about yourself!
