When the hell did MeTa become an AOL chatroom?
If it looks like an AOL chat, it's just Wendell talking to himself again.
No it isn't.
Yes it is.
Shut the fuck up.
Don't use that kind of language around me young man.

Which is a much smarter strategy than trying to get the rest of MeFi to write another 98 questions here before putting it on my blog. That's why you are the master of baiting, q, and I am a just a Doofus Without Portfolio.

maj, I now officially yield this misbegotten thread to you and your cgi (as if I had a choice). I hope you've got plenty of surplus bandwidth, because in a few hours, EVERYBODY'S going to do it. In fact, I am going to STFU and let Genefilter:wendell do all my future comments for me:
Don't mean to be ashamed of... Stealth Disco. Disturbing underground movement or merely some guy who played Captain Kirk, said Tom in a coalition with America's Middle East allies. Bush wasn't interested. He waved his hand dismissively, recalls a participant, and neatly summed up his mind. I'm NOT criticizing Cam; he was one of her (which was pre-sitcom). Also, the Bad Sitcom Experience Syndrome (BSES) affects different people in different ways; Ms. Cho has had sex with a fear of Kenny Loggins? (music on front page some may consider annoying... someday I will not give up their Big Lies unless forced to, and true defenders of Freedom of Speech know that you can enfold your favorite dead rock star in the kicking ass debate. In my college edjukayshun. On my top ten list of people at the age of seven, I was definitely NOT The Onion). Not bad. 90-plus posts and a half... Most of my credit card and medical debts. In other words, Satan really IS behind it. Pear pimples for hairy fishnuts!!!! This is not a pretentious designer in sight? Come on, is our popular culture so anti-feminist that we have to lay-off some of the two...
I see q-ball has beaten me to it. As usual.

specialk420, I have to say, you haven't been paying attention. Sure, I
haven't. But this is the coolest thing you've seen, I have to be
addressed. If I had to pay for this very website - and I wouldn't feel
even the slightest bit guilty about doing that either. Would you? No.
But you and matteo are still skirting the issue: if you discriminate
between rewarding people who are bad, you can use money to people that
we support. interrobang - a better analogy to what I'm suggesting would
be chemotherapy. It's unpleasant for the entire country want to destroy
the United States? We're their biggest customer! Hustler !=
garden-variety porn. We're talking about RIAA-shills Metallica here.
Were talking about women being raped on pool tables and put through
meat grinders. You don't have to say, you haven't been paying
attention. Sure, I haven't. But this is the marketplace, and you
thought that her statement that rose is a direct correlation between
artists eating and artists talking. Very mysterious! The people of the
weirdest things about metafilter. The place is full of liberals,
atheists and Jack Vance fans - and I'm of the woodworks to brag about
how much...

Err, I should have said "because of all that money from Rush", since it instead appears that I'm incapable of understandthing that "funds" refers to money. I've been on the computer too long, fantasizing about alien invasions and proselytizing about cronyism. I apologize for my luftgaffe.

P.S. As a certificate of honorary gayness, twas only the day before yesterday I started throwing whole Fijian vanilla pods - with the little black grains scraped into it, of course - into otherwise innocent bottles of Wyborowa vodka. You have no idea, judging by the unforgivable behaviour of my guests last night, how popular this little infusion has proved. I'd previously tried the usual suspects: malagueta and piri-piri peppers; autumn lemon, raspberries, blackberries and coriander seeds. Too intense and sectarian... Vanilla, on the other hand, is unarguable bliss!

My comment was not about the redistribution of cows.

More of that terrorism moniker again. Hence the hysterical cries of traitor at any time they see such criticism. That kind of reprehensible distortion. I still believe it's about tolerance.

We rightly demanded that the damages of slavery, while the families of American Black culture. Now then....a large number. Can you hear them?

It is time to go without cigarettes because some damn Southerner was scared to death of an obsolete system trying to consolidate whatever power it has today.
Time to go without cigarettes? Obviously this thing doesn't know whereof it speaks.
it's great sport to fuck with poor people, and it was in and out of the anti-slavery amendment or the right to due process before being deprived of property, or unreasonable search and seizure. Of course it does continue through the air at high speeds.

I think this provides an excellent metaphor for his whole Presidency. 36 USC 178: Any rule or custom pertaining to the specifics of the colonies had a unique experience with religious freedom. Democrat John Stockton, for example, who was nominated by Republican Presidents. Earl Warren, of all those who ratified the First Amendment. Jefferson was in fact subverts the purpose, turning the Establishment clause, the post-Civil War historical evidence makes it clear that the Bill of Rights, including ?freedom in the First Amendment considerations. If this seems like a better approach to someone like this, when we don't know if this is a bad form of originalism (a controversial proposition in itself), it may just have to do with the author.

I watched the video-this kid has his hands down his pants that much of an allure. Well folks, kids are approached by recruiters for the rest of the blatant answers to prayer I have ever heard of the local station kicked her to the French, anyway. That point is rather debatable.* But my son were to die in those circumstances it would work well in a mental hospital. I had to deal with little kids whose moms and dads are over fighting the bad things, you have a lot worse. Hope she heals quick and feels better soon. Why would I really don't understand the mindset. One more thing before someone brings up the word in the South is the price one pays for it these days. Or at the control seat, it would have fewer pharmacy bills now if I let them be shown. I guess that would be happy in this part of the spectrum, who knows? GOD IS NOT AN INSURANCE POLICY Good thing too. Who could afford a bigger house pay ment on two incomes , and who wouldn't enjoy having a glass of water. That is such a thing as Jebus, Skallas.

They suck. But really, it's kind of like redefining what a perv you are.
Yet it's interesting that your apology falls on her ass, but I think I have always made a point of reasonable usablity.
They are messy, contain rash generalizations and loose ends, and get a hard-on over a toaster.
This really makes for a wondeful time,

Yes, Lucifer did fall. Not even angels were created automatons. XQUZYPHYR, a lot worse. Hope she heals quick and feels better soon. Why would I kid about my wife being run over by a medical doc. God is God and I saw this on my daughter's history test this week...heh heh. Protostar, you're right to choose from. For one thing I have been a suicide bomber or behind the controls of a cultural icon, and in some circles practically unacceptable.

Of course, three months ago - please don't ignore ethylene; ignore me instead I'll even get behind the word-scrambling meme, and suspect that MSNBC would end up doing something that looks exactly like the ones Topps just published on the air?
If the economic dark clouds turn into an economic hurricane soon enough, it would most definately dash Bush's re-election hopes on the non-driver's side enough to buy a sandwich.
