Two terrible posts in reference to the Boston attack:

Remember what Stevie Johnson said?

You don't think this is North Korea related....

'progressives' in the us largely love guns.

I've always felt uncomfortable about forum members posting photos of non-member friends.

Why? These pics are not of anything illegal or embarassing and are all on facebook anyway. They're not internet virgins.

Facebook =/= all of this forum.

Most people expect that their Facebook photos will stay within their circle. (Of course the photos  don't stay there, but should you really spread them around?)

Yea pretty much. When I put photos on facebook I certainly don't expect them to end up on an internet forum unless I put them there.

Well, please let me welcome you to reality. What goes on facebook does not stay on facebook. Don't like it? Don't go on facebook.

I don't think it's something one should enable.

1964:

The dreaded (but unexciting) rematch

Richard Nixon / Nelson Rockefeller (Republican)
John F. Kennedy / Lyndon B. Johnson (Democrat)

Jack saves history!

Though I would probably just visit the past and see my future (actually go to 2050 and see how America and the rest of the world is) I would make this one major tweak to history:

Convincing the Continental Congress to make a balanced budget amendment to the Bill of Rights even though they already know that the leaders should not waste more than they have and to not steal from any other peoples' money.

I don't think you can really compare Atlas members to Holocaust deniers, but my first pick would be Kalwejt, along with Franzl, a Person, and Leif.

This post is worse than Holocaust denial.

I put it in the Goldmine. I laughed somewhat barely audibly.

It's a post that you laugh at because you don't want to believe anyone could be that much of an asshole.

I like it because of its absurdity and the fact that the second part contradicts the first.

These great patriots are defending the constitution.

You type in Obama on google and the 3rd thing to come up is "Obama Impeachment". should we be worried??

I'm not going to follow all of her advice as she wants me to stay within 1500-1800 calories.  That is just not going to happen.  I can do 2000-2250, but I refuse to starve myself and I refuse to constantly be hungry and not be able to enjoy meal time.  She also thinks I should only have 3 oz of meat per day (the size of a smart phone).  I'm sorry, but that's only 2-3 bites.  Not going to happen.  If I want a steak, I'm going to have a steak.  Not every day, naturally, but once in a while, I will indulge in a steak.

I'd like to say "unbelievable" but it's really not. What a zilch.
