    What's your frigging deal with the south park guys anyways?

    Walt Disney and Thomas Edison are the scumbags where it's at.  Just look at poor Caselotti and Goebel.

    Hi Yarrunmace!

    I just read a negative review of something I like, and my reaction is that (1) I disagree strongly with the review, and (2) I feel more strongly that I should pay full price for its second installment.

    (said thing is fault milestone one, in case you're curious.  review is here: hardcoregamer.com/2014/12/23/review-fault-milestone-one/125034/ )

    They're fuckers who hate that people like us exist at all.

    And I mean "like us" very broadly.

    Nobody glomps anymore, you silly goose!  And "frigging" means... dang it, I wish I'd never learned.

    Just... appreciate the time you have with grandpa, okay... and give our cousin T____ a hug.

    Well, I have an excellent future ahead of me, it seems.

    And, um, 2015?  Don't be so hard on yourself.  I'm sure there are things that you have that are great.

    (also, I knew Yarrunmace could make it to college!)

  • My dreams exceed my real life

    A marxist post-structuralist continental Ecole Normale Supérieure professor and feminist activist was teaching a class on Martin Heidegger, known hermeneuticist.

    ”Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Nietzsche and accept that his genealogical method was the most highly-evolved theory the continent has ever known, even greater than Hegel's dialectics!”

    At this moment, a brave, rational, positivist analytic philosopher who had read more than 15000 pages of Popper and Wittgenstein and understood the raison d'être of empiricism and fully supported all modern hard sciences stood up and held up the constitution.

    ”How universal is this text, frenchfag?"

    The arrogant professor smirked quite Jewishly and smugly replied “It's not universal at all, fucking positivist, its 'truth' is rooted in our shared understandings about culture, the subject and the nexus of power and knowledge”

    ”Wrong. It’s been 225 years since human reason created it. If it was not universal, and post-modern relativism, as you say, is real… then it should be regarded as a myth now”

    The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and copy of On Grammatology. He stormed out of the room crying those ironic post-modern crocodile tears. There is no doubt that at this point our professor, Michel Foucault, wished he had pulled himself up by his bootstraps and become more than an AIDS ridden sadomasochist interested in fisting. He wished so much that he had some kind of truth to hold on to, but he himself had written to disprove it!

    The students applauded and all rolled into American universities that day and accepted Wittgenstein as the end of philosophy. An eagle named “Formal logic” flew into the room and perched atop the copy of "Principa Mathematica" and shed a tear on the hardcover. The last sentence of "Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus" was read several times, and Karl Popper himself showed up and demonstrated how dialectics is nothing but a means of justifying contradictions.

    The professor lost his tenure and was fired the next day. He died of the gay plague AIDS and his "books" were disregarded for all eternity.

    I'm afraid you'll have to wait if you want to watch it all at once.

    Observation: when I say "candy" to a British person, they seem to think of, like, hard candies first.

    Whereas if you say "candy" to an American they'll immediately think of chocolate.

    Curious.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    because "candy" literally doesn't encompass chocolate in British English, like if you were British and you referred to a chocolate bar as "candy" to another British person, they'd think that was just incorrect

    outside imported TV and movies, we never even hear the word except with reference to hard candy or candy canes

    we use the word "sweets" instead, when we want a general word for what you guys call candy

    I know. I'm not thinking of waiting and then watching them all - I don't care that much about RWBY - so much as I am waiting for them to get onto Youtube.

    This is because Brits have better taste.

    Incidentally, "sweets", to me, connotes a broader category than "candy"...when you say "sweets" I'd think of that as encompassing most deserts, including cake, ice cream, etc. that I wouldn't call "candy"

    better taste...in candy. :P

    i've heard the word used this way, but unless it were in a specific context like, idk, a restaurant menu, i wouldn't take "sweets" to encompass those things

    i'd call those desserts, or in some cases puddings

    I don't doubt that British chocolate is better than American chocolate, at any rate.

    'Course, that didn't stop me from spending all this week munching on bottom-of-the-barrel on-clearance-even-at-the-dollar-store Halloween candy.

    I'm surprised you'd rather it be on Youtube...I'm rarely given a choice but I'd rather have a way to watch stuff off of Youtube, on its own dedicated site, if possible.

    Of course I'm speaking here from only my own personal priorities and preferences, and not making any conclusions on business sense vel sim.

    As an aside, I miss the days when "dollar store" literally meant "a store where all items are $1 or less."

    i hope you get well soon :)
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    oh, i forgot, the other context where we use the word "candy" is with reference to "candy floss"

    which you call "cotton candy", i believe

    in my experience, yes, but European chocolate is better than British chocolate i think
