  1. Tell him he's being an idiot. Not much more you can do than that.
  2. Agreed. Also I heard a reporter on TV in the U.S call it "the only world's superpower" Bullcrap. U.S, stop acting so mighty, and realize the rest of the world hates you. Not everyone hates the States ;) If they did they'd have nowhere near the power they (the states) holds now. And they are "the only world superpower".
  3. Well obviously. The point most people are bringing up here is that, while significant, wouldn't be very effective even if it were implemented.
  4. Besides, you've just stooped to her level - when we said: "get over her" we meant it - period. That means nothing, or else you'll never move on.
  5. The fourth, fifth and sixth all made no sense if you hadn't read the books. It's one thing to leave out things that won't translate into a movie, but another to leave out major plot details to the point that the entire story is corrupted.
  6. I'm glad to see it's in two parts, hopefully at least they can spare the butchery of detail so prevalent in the previous films. I don't have high hopes for it - the only director who really envisioned a good interpretation of the books was Chris Columbus, and the movies he directed were boring. Still, I'll watch it. EDIT: Damn Emma Watson is hot :D And of course it's in 3d. I'll try to watch it in 2D for sure.
  7. I've heard some theories that by 2050 we will have nano-bots capable of repairing and replenishing any tissue in the body permanently - aka immortality.
  8. I assume he means: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_(band)
  9. I don't believe normal users have the ability to start multi-user conversations :(
  10. Definitely the wrong place, although I question what the "right" place would be...maybe help and advice? Never heard of a Tool CC though.
  11. But really, the telephone, radio, and television revolutionized communication in the same way so I'd find it difficult to decide between them all.
  12. Ahh not sure how I feel about master of puppets, although it is good a lot would argue Metallica had already sold out by then.
  13. Lol I hope you're being sarcastic aha. I find Lady Gaga extremely annoying, but she's definitely talented.
  14. That's a good point (not that I was at all offended by man day).
  15. Happy birthday :)

  16. Sorry to hear that, condolences to you and your family.
  17. I'm sure it'll be nice to get something different then :P
  18. I can't help it, I find this extremely arousing.

  19. Lol'd at that last pic. :D My point is that while that's the case now, I wouldn't be surprised if in a few years it no longer is. Also, there's a difference between men tight and women tight - in general tight clothes worn by men aren't revealing, whereas women's clothes are.
  20. No, it doesn't, at least as far as I'm aware. I suppose the author is suggesting a kind of facilitative medicine such as Viagra. And @ harrinator: Look at how much fashion changes though. Hipsters with skinny jeans were hardly in fashion 15 years ago and things won't be the same later. While tight clothing has always been present in male fashion the specific demographics targeted has always changed, whereas for quite some time all women have been sold on tight, revealing clothing.
  21. What are we supposed to do? Make our own clothes? She's critiquing the fact that women's clothes, for all intensive purposes, have been tight and fixed to the body, which leaves them feeling they need to live up to a certain standard of fitness and body type. Whereas men's clothes have been made baggy, hiding a lot of the bodies that are less than desired. Basically it's a critique of socially accepted sexism. Not the type of clothes, per se, but it's putting a lot more pressure on women to be models, and men can be less fixated on their own bodies. There's no transition from what they wore as children to what they wear as men. I could be wrong, as I'm reading that quote out of context. That trend is changing, as of late, with clothing being marketed to men as fitting more closely, though. I'd say the "clothing being marketed to men as fitting more closely" is more of a fad if anything, I can't see that staying the case long term, or at least ever becoming as prevalent in female fashion.
  22. Not a bad idea. You could be the designer that crushes the blandness of menswear, Zierro! If anything, I'd say society provides an overkill of eroticism rather than a lack or it. What her point was, I've no idea.
  23. Lot of INTJ's it seems (myself as well).
