I don't have an answer to that question, but hopefully a long time before that point! :P

http://your.asda.com...valentine-s-day [hide][/hide] ... This has gone too far.

If you had to tl;dr my post... Then We Should All Post Like This.

Are you really suggesting that's the case for the vast majority of them? Come on, you're losing credibility with every passing post if you do.

I'm not imposing anything on anyone. I'm simply pointing out that it would be far more productive to get off your moral high horse about "state intervention versus personal liberties", and focus on the reasons that people (the vast, vast majority of whom are female) go into prostitution. If we're really going into the territory of morality--which on its own is a very weak argument to use for bringing in or changing existing legislation, especially on this degree--then surely it's better to make sure no woman, or man, enters the sex trade because in reality, they have no socioeconomic freedom to choose otherwise. Legislation doesn't give people freedom unless they have the power to exercise that freedom. Making prostitution legal overnight would not give people the freedom to choose a different way of life.

I literally know of no single person in reality who uses reddit. And that's how much I give a [bleep] about reddit.

:roll: "Oh yes Mrs. Smith, I hear you've been speaking about your desire to have a gastric band fitted to help with your weight problems. I also hear you've been having takeaways at KFC nearly everyday for the past 20 years and you now weigh 32 stone. Well... as your surgeon, that's none of my business. After all, it's not my place to tell you that eating all of those high calorie meals cooked in saturated fats wasn't in your best interest." Eating behaviour isn't strictly translatable to sexual preferences but... the point is there, dripping in sarcasm.

In terms of legislation, you would have to be very careful to ensure that the transition to legality isn't hijacked by people wishing to exploit or abuse the new legal status, especially in regards to under-aged workers. If my local shop had offered me a job at 15, and given me good breaks and decent cash for it, no one would really have batted an eyelid. With prostitution, you're talking statutory rape, which isn't the same minor inconvenience. You would also have to work out a way of ensuring that prostitutes receive the same working rights as everyone else and create a means of dispute resolution where these rights aren't respected. This would have to follow a very complex and drawn out process of consultation. You would then also have to form a way of regulating against any unscrupulous practices used by some employers. We've not even begun to talk about political repercussions. What sane politician would want to go toe-to-toe with NIMBYs on prostitution and its link to street drugs? Even very liberal politicians would be hanged, drawn and quartered in the polls. When you consider how much time, effort, money and political sacrifice would be spent for a legislature to enact the decriminalisation of prostitution, wouldn't it be far more pragmatic to focus on schemes that get prostitutes off the game? I know some like to hang on to this romantic notion that some prostitutes like being prostitutes, similar to how some pornstars like being pornstars, and that's true enough for a very select few, but isn't it stark reality that most people are forced into the easiest black market going through financial difficulty and poverty, and not a genuine desire to sell their bodies to men for sex? The common argument seems to be that legalisation would make the work safer for prostitutes. I'd think they'd be far more thankful if you resolved the economic and social factors which lead to them being prostitutes in the first place.

I would. Definitely.

Meh, RuneHQ's better than Tip.It anyway.

Tried looking up the school and the class year? ...You're not very familiar with the Golden Rules of Facebook Stalking, are you?

Well, I'll happily admit to being wrong on this occasion. MVP, made some excellent plays. I don't think it's fair for Kaepernick to be waved off as a rookie, though, he showed plenty of potential but made some crucial errors, that easy TD pass and the overthrown pick. He's the future QB of San Francisco for sure and you learn more from defeats like this than anything else. The officials bottled that final pass interference/holding call. It was blatant and the 49ers should have had another shot at the TD. The commentator saying it was a good call couldn't string a single logical answer as to why. But these things happen, and it shouldn't take the shine off one the most thrilling Super Bowls in recent history. I still wouldn't describe Flacco as "elite". There's a noticeable gulf in quality between Brady, Manning, Brees and Rodgers, and the rest of the NFL.

FALSE: 0 out of 0 = 0% I thought going on placement and having to do shift work would be a serious obstacle to my diet, but it hasn't been. If anything, the opposite. Because I'm so busy I don't get the chance to think about food, or breaks, or even go to the toilet sometimes. Therefore, I'm eating even less than I was before.

Roethlisberger has two rings and a third AFC Championship on top of that. Eli also has two rings and was MVP in both of those Super Bowls. I was under the impression that in sport, winning medals very much matters, as it will for Flacco if the Ravens win tonight.

I was drunk by the way... I'm very good at drunk typing. My head hurts... :cry:

Trying shaving someone else! I genuinely panicked when I got asked to, especially when I've only ever used electric shavers not razors.

Clearly her sense of humour wasn't very well... *puts glasses on* ...tuned. Ba-dum-tsh </socialsuicide>

He said he hated England because of the weather. Why the [bleep] would you move to Manchester then?

Two words: Joe. Flacco. Niners all the way, unless Ray Rice/Lewis rescue the Ravens for the upteenth time this season.

I'd have thought that principle was taken for granted in the way I wrote the post. Obviously not.

Either the requirements for the quest itself could involve those quests, or the pursuit of those extra rewards could expand on the lore provided in each respective quest.
