There is NO LINK between 9/11 and Iraq. George Bush himself has said this in interviews. Everyone knows this. WMD's was just out excuse to go occupy a country. And please, stop calling it a war. It's an occupation. We're not fighting a countries army forces, we are fighting its citizens.

I don't mean to sound like a jerk to the OP (well, his dad, rather) but your dad really needs to learn to drive, or something. Swearving out of the way for an animal is 1 part light-braking, 1 part slight wheel-turning and 2 parts hoping for the best. Looks like your dad did 4 parts of wheel turning and plowed right into the ditch, lol. I had to dodge 2 animals two nights ago (A bird and a racoon...My date thought it was the sweetest thing she's ever saw, so I guess it was worth it not pwning a 'coon, eh?) and they were really easy to avoid, even when I was going like 65.

Go for the ankles! ...Thats what my dog does when it wants me to drop my plate, anyways. I've gotten into like 5 fights in my life, and I've only actually been punched ONE time, and it was on accident by my friend. My friend was messing around throwing punch's in the air and I leaned forward right into one, right in the mouth. :P It was pretty funny.

Locke had an okay point (though a rather useless and overused one) until he included Mormonism into the "written as fact" catagory. Are you kidding me? Mormonism may be written as if it was fact, but anyone with half a brain can see it's complete BS. So why can the same not apply for the REST of the religions? They all have their flaws which make you go "uhh...thats...not right..." and people use the "times change." excuse. GOD IS TIMELESS. [developmentally delayed]ed humans are not. God would have been fully aware times would change.

Pretty sure Captain Rusty Bat was just being a dork when he said that. My friend made one of those "weapons", and it absolutely devastated a car, so hitting eachother in the legs multiple times, let alone once, is pretty impossible. You'd probably hit an artery and die. My craziest thing was probably sparring my teacher in Tae Kwon Do when I was like 13. I had just gotten my black belt and he had just gotten his 7th degree black belt...He was toying with me, of course, but I caught him in the head with a spin-hook kick (he had a helmet on, no worries :P) and totally whooped my [wagon] for it. Jumping back kick straight into my chest protector, I flew backwards quite literally. It was pretty messed up. We were just having fun, but I realize now that it was PRETTY dangerous. And I see where Bubsa is coming from. Girls are evil like that, as I've discovered personally the last couple nights.

Complete Idiots? Why would you say that? I'm interested. They're all the same person and they all like to talk about how non-conforming and individualized they are. By definition, yea...They're idiots. I hate people who follow trends. I want to push them all off a cliff. I go out of my way to tell people how ridiculous they look wearing sunglasses the size of their face, for instance. The sad thing is, that here...Even the guys do it. They wear those huge Paris Hilton sunglasses. [bleep]ing tools. God, what I wouldn't give to just be able to legally slap the hell out of some people.

Relative to not getting drunk, it's a true statement. If you like it, it's not wasting money. Say I like to buy Cokes. You do not like Coke, so therefore you say it's a waste of money to buy Coke. That part right there is all in opinion, Insane. It's not an opinion. All consumable objects that do nothing for you in the long-run are a waste of money, even if you enjoy them. RuneScape is a waste of money. Cigarettes, beer, candy, blah blah blah. People like the stuff, but it does nothing for them positively 5 years down the road, infact, I'd wager that most will regret consuming whatever it may be. How is enjoyment not justification for spending money? That seems like an awfully cynical view to have. I'm having a hard time believing anyone actually enjoys alcohol for what it is and not for what it does to your body. Beer tastes like watered-down aweful, and other alcohols are pretty much all crappy tasting, and on top of that, burn on the way down! It's my observation that if something burns on the way down when you're drinking it, it's because your body doesn't is saying "Hey, uhh...Don't drink that..." just as with how you cough when you smoke a cigarette. Anyways, even if I enjoy something, I'm smart enough to acknowledge that yes, it's a waste of money. I played MMO's, and the entire time I KNEW it was a waste of money and that in the long run, it would do nothing positive for me, but I did it anyways because it was fun at the time. Same goes for beer and cigarettes and la-de-da. But whatever, keep on drinkin' so you can get 5 DWI's and spend a few months in jail while someone who smokes pot and sits in their basement gets 15 years. ;)

Drugs very rarely make the weak stronger. They help fix a problem, but they give you more problems to live with. Ever realized all drugs have side effects that sound pretty damn horrible? I've seen heart-burn drugs that may give you explosive diarrhea. WHAT THE HELL? How does THAT fix the problem? A lot of times, if you take some vitamins, minerals, etc etc or certain kinds, or change your diet a bit, your problems go away. That's why the FDA and drug companies have been trying to make vitamins/minerals illegal to own without a perscription for years.

Yea, it's the sun. This is how you can tell who's in the Global Warming campaign for reasons other than actually caring about the Earth. It's pretty obvious now that it's something to do with the Sun, considering Mars has also been heating up and, ahem...There is no oil usage and Co2 emmisions on Mars, lol. I still think getting off the ole' oil is pretty important, but only because it will eventually run out, and when it does, if we're not off of it, there will be mass-war on the entire planet and la-de-da. But yea...I no longer buy the whole "OMG MY CAR IS RUINING THE WORLD!" thing. I only car about other alternatives because they keep me from paying other people buttloads of money. :lol: When I get a house, I'll probably have a wind-power generator set up just so I don't have to pay the electricity company...Infact, they'll have to pay me, I can sell electricty to them. Pwned! :P

There isn't a fat gene, there is a compulsive eating gene. Saying there is a fat gene is implying that you can't help it and it isn't your fault. The compulsive eating gene, however, is like anything else...It can be controlled if you have the will to control it. I used to eat too much, but I realized I had about 20 extra pounds on me and stopped...Lost it in 2 weeks and have kept it off for the last 3 years or so just off will power. Pretty easy.

I drink for the same reasons Insane said. Why spend the money, brain cells, etc? If anyone here can actually justify drinking alcohol, I'd love to hear it. And if you say "It helps me have a good time", congratulations, you're about as fun as a rock when you're sober.

I actually find this statement to be very true in all "faith" based structures and organisations. I was just 30 minutes ago watching a document on North Korea. Some western prime ministers got to meet him in a summit and they filmed it. "Why don't you apply social advances and redistribute wealth?" Kim Jong-Il: "In reality, we don't have those resources". So basically his government just keeps telling his people everybody is happy and has lots of food, socialism will triumph, crops are good, employment and productivity will rise.. And those poor people are so brainwashed they don't know better. They believe it and starve to death. They have no free media, they can't even exit the country legally. Before 1900... The church and islamic khalifs, imams, etc. were pretty much exactly the same; except they were trying to manipulate people by scaring them with "hell" or promising them "heaven" if they bent to submission and paid taxes and listened to orders. This system is good for maintaining power: It attaches it's desire to control people and use power on them by taxing them, using them to raise armies and further the leaders' own goals... All because the weak people of the system really believe what they're being told. Their parents were taught the same, and their parents before that.... Yea, you have to wonder what the "higher-up" people know that we do not know. They obviously know something. I don't think a legit Christian could send people into a war that he knew would involve massive civilian deaths and all-in-all be completely unjustified. Yet here we are...Bush, who claims to be Christian, has ordered just that. *Shrug* It's why I don't follow religion. I believe there could be a God, but if there is, it isn't this black and white "be good and you'll go to heaven, to something trivially bad and you're going to hell" BS. Anyone who believes that is not only a yuppy, but is also insulting the intelligence of any supreme being that may exist. Somehow, people think God is below any "grey" areas, which is just moronic.

This has nothing to do with algebra. This is why I hated school. Some teachers make you do random-assed assignments that serve no purpose in life. In real life, building a damn hotel would return more profit than 4 houses anyways, so screw Monopoly. That guy with the monicle is a dork.

They don't have enough faith in anything to actually kill themselves or anything like that over it. Everyone who's high-up in it KNOWS it is bullcrap and everyone lower-ranking in it is only in it because they believe it "helps them". The whole thing is a self help scam which they then use to steal money from people and make profits. Anyone who actually believes the "beliefs" are quite [developmentally delayed]ed, as they all come from a fiction book. It's like me worshipping Frodo for saving the world from certain doom. Noone's going to do that crap. Definately a cult. The sad thing is that you could compare it to some Christian sects and they'd look awefully similar...Well, minus the whole brain-washing lies and whatnot...But still, the stealing money thing is still there!

Learn to read. Already disproved everything you said in this post. How did you disprove facts? You must be good. It seems like you guys aren't asking if it will take off, but if it will have enough thrust via it's engines to take off... ...This is the dumbest problem I've ever seen. The treadmill is now irrelevant. What the hell? If it's going to use it's thrust to move forward, then DUH, yes it will take off, but now the treadmill makes no damn difference. This is perhaps the most unnecessarily stupid question ever asked.

Uh, then why are people disagreeing with me and still talking about this? :-s

I think you are being sarcastic, but at the end there it kind of sounds like you weren't. Ignore this next part if you were being sarcastic. A person walking forward on a treadmill doesn't go anywhere, just like if you were driving a car on a treadmill, it wouldn't go anywhere. Airplanes are different though, their jets are their means of movement. The jets don't move with relation to the ground, they move with relation to the air. Yeeeea...And a plane moving on a treadmill still has no air going through its turbines...Go run on a treadmill once and see how much wind you feel in your hair...None? Thought so. You guys are all thinking WAY too far into it. What you're not thinking about is the simple thing here...The plane is on a treadmill. The plane is not moving, the ground is. You're saying that the plane can then, once the ground reaches enough speed, take off. So you're saying that the plane can go from a dead stop with no forward momentum at all, no lift at all, nothing, and suddenly take off, forward, and fly away...All because the ground was moving at a speed relative to what that plane would need to take off. I still stand by calling you guys stupid, because this isn't even a problem. If phycisists are actually debating this, then the half of them debating FOR it need their degree's stripped away, because I haven't even gone to college or taken a physics class and even I realize that everything you guys are saying is completely irrelevant. The wheels are irrelevant. The wings are irrelevant. The turbine jet engines...All of it, completely irrelevant, because the plane has NO forward momentum, no lift...Nothing. You guys do realize, then, that you're saying that this plane can accelerate from 0 mph to 300 some mph in less than a second, too, right? It would have to in order to stay aflight. Even if it could get off the ground for a milisecond using this method (it couldn't) it would then have to accelerate to that speed in less than a second to stay aflight, and mind you, it still has no thrust, lift, forward momentum, etc. I don't mean to sound like a total jerk or like I'm smarter than everyone, but seriously...Anyone further disputing what I'm saying obviously doesn't have a very basic grasp on reality, let alone any actual science.

No he isn't. By the Federal Copyright Law he wouldn't have a show if that was true. Especially on a Viacom network. There are no copyrights reguarding comedic material. Any moron can look at Mencia's shows and easily realize most of the work is stolen. I'll agree with Carlos' own statement that a similar joke doesn't always mean stealing, it just means coincidence - that is true, but Carlos has OBVIOUSLY stolen other material from people like Ari Shaffir and Joe Rogan, to name a couple. It crosses the barrier from simply "similar jokes" to out-right theft. Just because he isn't breaking a law doesn't mean he isn't being a dishonest little turd. Durrr. Not to mention the dude isn't even remotely funny on his own. And how many times do we have to endure the slightly-ethnic comic doing stereotype jokes? YAWN. Seen it a million times. Boring. They're all the same. Oh, and he isn't even a Mexican. He's from Honduras. And half German. Oh, and his name isn't Carlos Mencia, it's Ned Arnel Holness. Oh, sorry...Was Ned Holness not Mexican enough, Captain liar? Had to change your name to Carlos Mencia? Nice...Idiot. When does the honesty start?

Nothing wrong with that. According to Carlos Mencia prostitution and/or being called a [bleep] or a hoe is a compliment. :P Carlos Mencia is also a joke-stealing hack. Christ, you guys ALL have severely bad judgements of character.

I confess to only wanting to date Christian girls because they're the only girls with any damn self respect anymore. :lol:

You people arguing that the plane would take off are nothing short of mentally disabled, and scientific looking pictures do nothing to disprove that. I happen to own a treadmill, so I'm one of the few here that could actually put this theory to test if I had a little scale plane. I don't, so I'll use an analogy instead! If I am running on a treadmill, I am not actually moving. The ground is. I can run 10 miles on it and go NOWHERE. The ground itself moves 10 miles. The bottom line and easiest way to say this is that you guys are saying the plane could go from dead-stop to forward-take-off because the ground was moving...Airplanes cannot do that. It would have ZERO forward momentum and ZERO lift. That is all.

I've seen her design work. ...Two daughters with no talent, in other words. Yet extremely rich and famous. Hmm. What the hell?

You only say that because there are 100 times more pictures of Nikki in erotic poses and nude than Paris. Uhh, no. I have never seen either of them naked, nor do I want to. Especially Paris. I've only seen pictures of her sister when she was with Paris and I have no idea why everyone pays so much attention to Paris and not her sister, because Paris is like...Yea. Gross. Hideous. No talent....Ugh. AND herpes? Where do I sign up to date that? Ick.

This statement shows how truely warped our vision of beauty is due to the media. Paris Hilton is UGLY. Money aside, if she were to ask me out, I would tell her to get bent. Skinny, blonde hair, blue eyed girls are fine and dandy, but man...This girl is hideous. Look at her. She has a saggy eye lid and a weird [wagon] nose. Her SISTER is hotter than she is. No joke here, even White Supremesists (who love ANYONE who is blonde hair, blue-eyed) think this chick is a hideous embarassment.
