Non-Political Discussion

[Sentinel]

This thread is for non-political discussion within the Opposing Ideologies forum. Observe however, that oneliners and spam posts are not allowed; as opposed to the old 'chatter' - threads, posts made in this one are expected to have some kind of meaningful content and are to consist more than one line.

Please see the Opposing Ideologies Forum Guidelines (http://www.revleft.com/vb/opposing-ideologies-forum-t165421/index.html) for the explanation behind these rules. Kindly respect though, that this thread is not meant for discussion about them, or board policy in general. Such posts will end up in the trashcan.

Enjoy your posting!

EDIT: modified the oneliner rule for practical reasons.

[PhoenixAsh]

Does the three line minimum also count to questions you want to ask a user based on a post or opinion or do we have to draw it out over three sentences?

[RGacky3]

The level of discussion is a little dissapointing, threads about economics, actual politics, theory, current events, get little attention, but some post modern asshole who is obviously trolling gets tons, or some guy rehashing old arguments gets tons, or some guy saying muslims are terrorists. Unfortunately I don't know how long this forum is gonna be a place for vibrant discussion.

Does anybody else find the Scottish accent hot? Well I think any accent is hot, but that deep Scottish is much hotter than any other accent. What's weird is that I hated those accents when I was a kid, but now I find it attractive.

[RGacky3]

Not with a woman.
not with a girl.
not with a female.

[socialistjustin]

That's the hottest. The male accent is still attractive, but its when the women have the deep accent that it gets more attractive.

Hope I'm not sounding sexist in any way, with the stricter policies I would hate to get restricted to this place.

[RGacky3]

Hope I'm not sounding sexist in any way

Obviously holding sexual preferences is sexist.
Its sexist to have a sexual preference
having a sexual preference is sexist.

Hey Hindsight, how can I get my cat to let me put the ear tick liquid in her ears without her running? She understands what I'm doing because she comes back to let me do the other ear, but its annoying to have her run and have her get the liquid all over her face.

[PhoenixAsh]

1: You can solve this as follows:

http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/funny-pictures-cat-is-wrapped-like-burrito.jpg


2: or you could leash your cat so it can't run.
3: but cats will always run when they feel liquid in their ear
4: I usually just held them tight
5: They didn't like it as much but it was for their own good
6: alternatively you can do this when feeding...maybe the cat won't run then.
7: or....but I assume there is a time limit...you can use the pavlov method by giving it a candy right before and after you do the drips.
8: make sure you let the cat know you have another candy/treat for her/him so they will focus on that

[Bronco]

The rule is 3 sentences not 3 lines. Just pointing that out. Insert 3rd sentence here.

[RGacky3]

I would be happy if anyone tried to raise the level of political debate IN THE PART OF THE FORUM FOR POLITICAL DEBATE. This only threads that get attention here are bullshit troll threads that are re-hashing the same stuff. Its difficult to write 3 sentances when you only want to make a simple, basic, single point.

[socialistjustin]

Yeah I usually give her a treat after and it works a bit better. The thing I'm worried about is if she gets the medicine in her eye or mouth. Never tried a leash, but she would probably accept it so maybe I will try that.

1: Cats are funny creatures with their own will.
2: Our cats were like that to, when we had to give them eye drops or something like that.
3: But I usually restrained them because leashes didn't work.

[Sentinel]

Posts discussing board policy, which were explicitly forbidden in the OP and generally aren't meant to be discussed in this forum, and troll posts have been trashed. Now, there are two possible ways forward from here; either people follow the rules of the offtopic thread, or there will be no offtopic thread at all.

Did you guys think there always was one? Nope, it was only a few years ago that I (yes, I) proposed the starting of one to Jazzratt. I think it is necessary as a valve to keep non-political stuff from flooding the main forum.

It was however never meant to be a place where people can simply spam up their post counts by posting pictures and oneliners (do you guys think Bud Struggle would have gotten to over 10 000 posts without it).

As for the three sentences rule, it simply means that oneliners aren't allowed, as they aren't anywhere except chit chat, where posts don't count:



Spam/One-Line Posts

Please do not post any one-line posts like "I agree", "Good point", "Hear, Hear", or whatever to increase your post count. If you have nothing productive to say, don't say it! Notorious spammers/one-line posters will be banned.

Now, let's see how this goes. If people keep breaking the rules this thread will be removed. :(

[PhoenixAsh]

So sentinel explain to me why exactly you consider my icehockey video spam. Seeing as it is non-political and has relevance and is meaningful because I wanted to share it and talk about icehockey. Maybe you should explain how exactly you envision your rules and what you mean with them because I understand fuck all about this being a non political thread which doesn't allow non political posts because they are considered spam. You are killing this forum dude.

[RGacky3]

Is there any benefit to having a high post count? I don't see any. Bud struggle being in the RC was acutally a good thing, it was when he tried to derail proper discussions when he was a problem.

One more time, I'm not doing this on a whim. The BA elected me to mod this forum on this specific platform. I outlined it clearly, before I was elected to the position.

This thread is not for discussing board policy, use the avenues available for that: start a thread in the members forum for that purpose or make a proposal for rule change in the CU proposal forum.

If you want to make posts about ice hockey, that is fine as long as they don't contain discussions about board policy and/or trolling. If they do they will be trashed.

I hope this is clear for all now.

I am asking you for an explanation of the rules which you are implementing which are not clear at all.....but which you seem to refuse to give.

You can skim around this by refering what you did or did not outline to the BA....but the fact of the matter is that the members need to know exactly what you mean. nd since you closed the sticky on the rules and YOU brought it up here I think my question is relevant and should be adressd. And doing so in the members area kind of beats the purpose since restricted users have no acces to that and can not see the explanation.

Otherwise this becomes arbitrary bullshit. I am not questioning the rules I am asking you for clarification which YOU made relevant by deleting non-political posts and designating them as spam in a non political forum. Quite obviously the rules are not clear to users. So clearly YOU did not communicate the rules well.

Wether or not you did to the BA is of no consequence and quite a few people mods and admins were very surprised to learn you closed RC.

Not to mention the fact that you also closed my comment on how my day was so far. Which did not question board policy but expressed my sadness about the closing of RC. So what? Now THAT is considered questioning of the board rules? You can't say you are sad? You also deleted my cat posts which did NOT contain ANY reference to board policy AT all.

[hatzel]

You know I find politics terribly boring. I mean, it's such a pile of codswallop with absolutely no potential to enact serious social change; it's all just about rearranging sticks, rather than doing away with the sticks altogether. As far as I'm concerned, all political movements are inherently reformist; even 'revolution' (as it is generally understood in contemporary parlance) is a lifeless, impotent act of reform following some 'moment,' an election by force, a ritualistic 'shift of power' from one group to another, from the status quo to the group that will enact the 'necessary' political reforms, who will rearrange society's institutions - this may be adequate for partial liberation, for a simple amelioration of circumstance, but anarchy can never come about through politics, even supposedly anarchic politics, nor by these reforming 'revolutions;' it requires a reaching beyond politics, beyond this outdated concept of 'revolution,' surpassing them both before they even begin to realise themselves. I think that anybody who puts their faith in politics or the political has given up all hope for a better existence, has resigned themselves to imperfection and compromise, to procrastination, to worthless dreams of some far off quasi-messianic age.

Therefore I'll never acknowledge the political, in whatever form it takes, because it will always be an anachronism, a set of lifeless institutions with no worth, nor with any potential. Contemporary 'revolutionaries' are half way there, by rejecting the extant political system, by recognising its impotence, yet still they cling to their notions of 'revolution,' convinced that it will return the political's lost potence to it. This, however, is an incomplete act, it calls only for a partial revolution, a papering over the cracks; there can be nothing more revolutionary than the complete rejection of politics as a concept, as a form of social organisation, and there will be no revolution worthy of the name which does not exit politics entirely, which does not result in the wholesale abolition of politics in all its innumerable forms. This is not to say, however, that I believe there will ever come a time when revolution will not be required, when politics will finally be overcome, when people will no longer turn to it as their own little medicine.

This is more than non-political discussion - this is anti-political discussion :)

Please delete this post and infract the poster, for it consists of only two sentences!

(Notice: this post is allowed! It consists of 3 sentences!)

[xub3rn00dlex]

1. Got all dressed up and sexy looking for this girl, turns out she was sick and took the day off from class. Boo.
2. Forgot I had a paper due today, worth 15% of my grade. Probably gonna rock out with an F in anthro. Boo.
3. Nothing to drink at home, BOOOOOOOO.

P.S: I get bonus points because, not counting this sentence, there are 6 sentences in this post!

[TheGodlessUtopian]

Okay,I am really getting sick of this numbering sentences thing.

Anyways,what is the most absurd thing you guys have seen while on other forums? I remember some crazy things but since I don't use the internet much they probably pale in comparison to yours.Any forum civil wars? Those are always fun.

[Smyg]

1. Would probably be the pseudo-fascist dictatorship that ruled the forum of a gaming group I was in once upon a time. 2. It was for the game Urban Dead, and you have no idea how authoritarian it was and how strict the discipline was. 3. It was hilariously dictatorial.

[PhoenixAsh]

1 I was a member of a Dutch forum where they put you in MUG whenever you stepped out of line. 2I have been in MUG now for three years straight 3So it is good they don't do that on this forum.

[danyboy27]

1.i went to a thrift store today. 2. Its really amazing how cheap and interesting it can be to shop there. 3. i got a verry classy gym bag, 2 beer glasses and a university studient book about psychology for 10 bucks.

Urban Dead was baller. I remember I used to roll w/ the Socialist Worker's Party of Malton until some lunatic took it over. Then we held some tiny area in the southeast as the Kronstadt Sailors.

[ÑóẊîöʼn]

Ever looked round one of your old neighbourhoods with Google Street view? What a rush of nostalgia. It's also interesting to note the changes. At least one of my old childhood haunts is now closed off.

[Sentinel]

Okay, so I've modified the rule against oneliners, for practical reasons. There will be no limit on the amount of sentences -- they'll simply have to be longer than one line and have some kind meaningful content (pure spam won't be tolerated). I hope this satisfies some people.

[Smyg]

Hemmingway would not have approved. Setting a lenght limit is pointless in my opinion, as long as the message is valid. If a question is asked, and a short reply is a sufficient answer, then must the concise message be fluffed up with meaningless padding? Sounds odd to me.

There comes a day in every musician's life when they decide to pull the cable out of their guitar and just swing it around their heads and hit stuff with it and hit their guitar with it and turn the electrical crackle up to 11 and just go totally crazy with that shit, before eventually they think to themselves "what on Earth have I become...?"

For me that day was today. Let's start a new era, people! The era of minimal-psych-noise protest music! :thumbup1:

[PhoenixAsh]

So today was annoying. Cleaned my house....worked hours on that....dusting, vacuming, mopping...shining the wooden floors with some kind of wax shit and make them all shiny and nice....

The I go cook and make myself a huge plate of Moussaka. Then I walk back into the living room....trip....and there is two meters of Moussaka spill on my freshly shined floor.

I would say the floors did look good enough to eat from but the wax thing is toxic. So no dice there. No food either. FML

So here is a picture for you....in an attempt to brigthten up your day...

After reading that entire post, what the fuck is moussaka?!

[PhoenixAsh]

This is Moussaka:


http://bestmoussakarecipes.com/images/Greek_moussaka.jpg


It looks like lasagne but it is not. It is totally different. Its with potatoes instead of pasta. And eggplant and....well...the rest is basically the same as lasagna but don't tell the Greek or Italians that.


Also...I want to go and make Taco's tomorrow....

For those of you who do not know what Taco's are....here is a picture of Taco's:

[Agent Ducky]

Hindsight, I think I only know one person more obsessed with tacos than you. My best friend. She has a pencil case that looks like a taco and also has this taco pillow:

You know you're jealous.

[PhoenixAsh]

Goddamn!

I like your friend and I want that pillow!

Edit: And I mean this in a totally non creepy kind of way...just so you all know! X)

Also here is a picture of my birth teddy bear. Yeah I stll have it! :P

[Le Socialiste]

Hindsight, reading your post makes me wish I could cook. Seriously, it does. It also makes me wish I had a shiny floor to eat off of...alas, I only have carpet.

On another (semi-unrelated) note, does anyone ever feel at times like you're spelling a word wrong (one that you usually write out every day)? Like just now, I typed about my carpet - and I could swear I spelled it wrong.

Maybe I'm just tired (yeah, let's go with that).

[PhoenixAsh]

Well...I am not sure how you are supposed to write it in your language...

So in Holland we have karpet and parket. Basically two different things to cover your floor with.

I have neither...I have a wooden floor. I'll post a picture later. Because right now I am bussy...see picture.

Cooking btw is not as hard a it may appear. Mousakka is basically sauce, ground beef, eggplant slices, herbs mixed throug...topped with slices of potato and gratef cheese. You could add onions through the sauce and garlic.Put in oven at 180 for 40 minutes and eat.

:)


Life suck:

:D your face when you realised what this was and how much clothesI am wearing while typing this :P

[socialistjustin]

Got a recipe for moussaka? Looks pretty good.

[PhoenixAsh]

Moussaka is a casserole made by layering eggplant with a spiced meat filling then topping it off with a creamy bechamel sauce that is baked to golden perfection.

It is perhaps the most widely recognized of all Greek dishes and was made famous by the legendary Greek chef, Nicholas Tselementes.

This eggplant version is the traditional rendition, however you can also layer in potatoes, zucchini, or whatever vegetables you prefer. It's hearty and filling so you won't need many side dishes.

While it can be time consuming to prepare, I think you will find that once complete it is a very worthwhile endeavor.

Prep Time: 2 hours

Cook Time: 45 minutes

Total Time: 2 hours, 45 minutes

Ingredients:

3-4 eggplants, about 4 lbs. total
1 lb. potatoes
1 1/2 lbs. ground beef (or lamb)
2 large onions, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup red wine
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground allspice
1 cup tomato puree (or crushed tomatoes)
2 tbsp. tomato paste
1 tsp. sugar
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups plain breadcrumbs
8 egg whites, lightly beaten (reserve yolks for bechamel)
1 cup grated Kefalotyri or Parmesan cheese

Bechamel Sauce:
1 cup salted butter (2 sticks)
1 cup flour
4 cups milk, warmed
8 egg yolks, lightly beaten
Pinch of ground nutmeg
Preparation:

Prep the Vegetables:
Using a sharp peeler, partially peel the eggplants, leaving strips of peel about 1 inch wide around the eggplant. Slice the eggplant in to 1/2 inch slices. Place the eggplant slices in a colander and salt them liberally. (edit: NO! not too much salt!!!) Cover them with an inverted plate that is weighted down by a heavy can or jar. Place the colander in the sink so that excess moisture can be drawn out. They will need to sit for at least 15-20 minutes, preferably an hour. The salt also helps to remove some of the bitterness of the eggplant. (edit: the bitter taste of eggplants is something I have never really noticed. But maybe this may vary as vegetable tastes vary from region to region. Also...if you grill them in a grill pan then you do not need to do the weighing down part. I have never done this btw...)

Peel the potatoes and boil them whole until they are just done. They should not get too soft, just cooked enough so that they no longer crunch. Drain, cool and slice them in 1/4 inch slices. Set aside.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Line two baking sheets with aluminum foil and lightly grease. Add a splash of water to the egg whites and beat them lightly with a fork. Add breadcrumbs to a flat plate.

Rinse the eggplant slices and dry with paper towels. Dip the eggplant slices in the beaten egg whites and then dredge them in the breadcrumbs, coating both sides. Place breaded eggplant slices on baking sheets and bake at 400 degrees for 1/2 an hour, turning them over once during cooking.

When eggplant is finished cooking, lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees.

Make the Meat Filling:
In a large sauté pan, brown the ground beef (or lamb) until the pink color disappears. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add wine to pan and allow it to simmer and reduce a bit before adding cinnamon, allspice, parsley, tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, and sugar. Allow the sauce to simmer uncovered for approximately 15 minutes so that excess liquid can evaporate. It should be a drier, chunkier, tomato sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Make the Béchamel Sauce:
Melt butter over low heat. Using a whisk, add flour to melted butter whisking continuously to make a smooth paste. Allow the flour to cook for a minute but do not allow it to brown.

Add warmed milk to mixture in a steady stream, whisking continuously.

Simmer over low heat until it thickens a bit but does not boil.

Remove from heat, and stir in beaten egg yolks and pinch of nutmeg. Return to heat and stir until sauce thickens.

Assemble the Moussaka:
Lightly grease a large deep baking pan (lasagna pan). Sprinkle the bottom of pan with breadcrumbs. Leaving a 1/4 inch space around the edges of the pan, place a layer of potatoes on the bottom. Top with a layer of eggplant slices.

Add meat sauce on top of eggplant layer and sprinkle with 1/4 of the grated cheese. Top with another layer of eggplant slices and sprinkle once again with 1/4 of the grated cheese.

Pour the béchamel sauce over the eggplant and be sure to allow sauce to fill the sides and corners of the pan. Smooth the béchamel on top with a spatula and sprinkle with remaining grated cheese. Bake in a 350-degree oven for 45 minutes or until béchamel sauce is a nice golden brown color. Allow to cool for 15 – 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

You can make this dish ahead up until the béchamel sauce and refrigerate. Make the béchamel sauce right before you intend to bake it.





edit: you can also buy the sauce....somewhere...
edit: you do not need to do the eggplant oven thing. You can grill them...but its tastyer if you do it in the oven.

[xub3rn00dlex]

So when do i move in to eat your food hindsight?? I'm going to put on my big boy pants, wear my captalist hat and exploit my parents into using that recipe to feed me now! Btw, how well do you think it'll go with the gym? I eat a ton, so just how lethargic should i be after chowing down on this??

[socialistjustin]

Everybody here likes Tacos, but its all about the Enchiladas. I made those last week and they were awesome as usual. It takes basically the same stuff as tacos too.

I actually like lifting weights after I eat as I don't feel lethargic after doing so. Maybe its just me being weird though.

Well...if you go to the Gym before you have dinner it will go amazing. If you after...make sure you do it maybe two hours later.

:D

I believe you, I reallyd do. And enchillada's are really good too. But lets face it....they are not Taco's.

It is actually better if you do after you eat for energy purposes. But on the other hand....you need to replenish after you train too. But you can fix this with high protein food.

[socialistjustin]

Pfft, Tacos bow before Enchiladas. There is nothing better than a nicely wrapped Enchilada full of green chiles, cheese, sauce and beef topped with even more cheese and sauce and olives.

Then the best part is taking them out of the oven and pttimg some sour cream on top maybe. Yum!

[hatzel]

Well I'm poor so tortilla + avocado + salt is the way to go, as far as I'm concerned. Can't be shelling out all my pennies on all these fancy ingredients you taco- / enchilada-people are banging on about...

But yes...they do sound delicious! Yumm

That is also nice. I get ground beef at discount. Usually I have to make due with frozen pizza....or rice and some veggies. But every once in a while I splur a little :)

At the end of the month...I will be absolutely poor. No income. No savings and no job. And my social sec. Has not been cleared yet. :S Oh well...

Tell em to stop, or your going to management. (Or Union rep, if you have a union).

[maskerade]

While on the topic of ingredients for tacos and enchiladas, I usually take the tortilla bread, spread some tomato sauce on it, cover it with the cheapest cheese I can buy and maybe top it off with some ham if i'm feeling adventurous. Put it in the microwave and BAM, you've got yourself a mini pizza. Delicious.

[socialistjustin]

Sounds pretty good. I guess pita pockets could work as well if you don't open the pocket up.

[hatzel]

So Life & times of Tim is coming back for a new series pretty soon. Anybody else as excited as I am? :)

[Agent Ducky]

Personally I find that my local Costco sells the BEST tortillas. They come uncooked so you have to cook them in a pan but doing so is fun and they are so damn good. This is why whenever men on the internet tell them to make them a sammich, I dismiss them and retort that I only make quesadillas.

[Ocean Seal]

1. They got rid of reactionary chatter
2. There no longer are clever titles
3. WTF?

Edit: Also Ducky's post is incredibly true. The proletariat needs to start turning costco's into Soviets and distributing the tortilla's among other things.
Edit: Damn it edit again. Also regarding Dannyboy's post I have to say I had the same thing in high school. "You love communism, so you love dictatorships, so you love Hitler". Yeah there is pretty much no way to get rid of it. If you really feel that its an issue, speak to your co-worker personally, and tell him how you feel about it. If he continues it, knee him in the nuts (jk).

Give them demeaning/embarrassing nick-names in return like "pervert" or "lumpen" (:lol:) (and kind of laugh it off jokingly). Fuck the numpties. Fight fire with fire if it's getting to you, but pretend it to be a joke so there's no ill-feeling caused. It then should soon pass.

Richard Wolff responds brilliantly to the idea that is you replace corporations with cooperatives but leave the market they will still have to work within a capitalist market.

In other words, you can still have a market with cooperatives but have it not be a capitalist style market, but instead a socialist style market (driven by socialist institutions coordinating production).

As long as you see to it the Taco's are well stuffed then I have no problem with this suggestion.

Also I would like to see a peoples committee on advancing Taco's in society. It would greatly benefit the post revolution era.

Damnit! We used to have a carribean and surinam food take away restaurant here. And it went belly up because of the excessive rents. For 10 bucks you could eat with two people for two days from the meals they made! And god...that was delish.

So now there is a new restaurant like this but it is in a different city and I have to go there by bike and when I get home to food is cold. Which sucks ass.

It is fucking amazing how these restaurants always manage to give you a decent amount of food for half the price in a normal restaurant....and usually it is twice the quality. Family bussiness of people who know what they are doing are superior to anything that Michellin offers.

Clearly you've never been to a Sombra-family gathering, then, kind sir! For if you had you would have no choice but to retract this statement...

I generally don't eat breakfast, actually. When it comes to somewhat leftfield offerings, though, top of my list would probably be...a rather large cabbage pie (about 45cm across, 15cm high, made with a whole cabbage :confused:), though that kind of faded into lunch because I was sitting there taking nibbles over the course of about 3-4 hours. Not sure if that really counts.

On the now slightly revised subject of eating excessively at breakfast time: I once ate almost a whole pack of spaghetti (it must have been about 700g dry), 'as it comes,' with no sauce, oil, nothing. After which I, of course, had to go back to bed for a little lie down. Though this was in the brief intersection of my one-meal-a-day phase and my I'm-terribly-underweight-and-need-to-fatten-myself-up-a-bit-by-eating-shitloads-of-carbs phase. Might go some way towards explaining it...

Today I had a huge plate of chili tots. It was quite the breakfast.

What

[Die Rote Fahne]

What

Palt is a boiled Swedish dish. The outside is a dough made from flour and shredded potato. Inside we put suit (cow fat) and kidney. The kidney can be replaced by what you want, but our family always uses kidney. They are about the size of a fist or a bit bigger.

My Swedish great great grandmother taught my grandmother how to make it, she taught my mother and aunts and they taught my cousins.

Probably my favourite food.

[OHumanista]

Damn I wish I could all the stuff you're discussing without gaining a ton in weight. (I do daily exercises and eat very little but lose almost no weight, any significant change to this routine means I gain weight):D (right now I am trying to get back to it)

[Smyg]

I know what palt is, it is sadly an integral part of both my childhood and the books of Astrid Lindgren. :lol: Just surprised by the mention of it.

[El Chuncho]

Does anybody else find the Scottish accent hot? Well I think any accent is hot, but that deep Scottish is much hotter than any other accent. What's weird is that I hated those accents when I was a kid, but now I find it attractive.

Depends on the Scottish ''ethnicity'' (or whatever you want to call it) really. The lowlander ''Inglis'' sound too much like the accent of my area (Northumberland), for obvious reasons, but I am partial to Scots Gaelic accents which actually sound not too unlike Irish, and my family are Scots Gaelic mostly, though most of us sound northern English.

Scots Gaelic:

Danish and Norwegian I can roll with, just not Swedish. I've only found one person who could pull it of, and that was an American. Essentially everyone I've ever met agrees with me, it's very hard to be anything even resembling hot when both people involved speak Swedish. It's not a sexy language for us native speakers.

Cool cool. My family in Sweden have the surname Lindahl. If that's a name that's in that area.

Lindahl is a somewhat common name. It goes back to, essentially, the 19th century. As it happens, everyone but the soldiers (they had names like Brave, Steel, Hasty, etc) and the nobles (and they too from the beginning) had -sson names (Johansson, Eriksson, etc.). Patronymic, you know. Women generally had -sdotter (Johansdotter, Eriksdotter, etc.). Eventually, the burghers began copying the noble practice of having more fancy names, and as the 19th century and the industrial revolution came both urban workers and farms did the same, in order to appear less common or escape their heritage.

Lindahl, in this case, is a combination of... I guess in English it would be Small-leaved Lime and Alder, according to Wikipedia at least. Compare Lindbergh.

Worry not, it's constant and epic struggle but not as harsh as that. I try to keep it more or less on that mark. Sometimes it has good results, sometimes it doesn't...still sucks.

Even up here it only fell to about 6C/43F, which it is at the moment. That can sometimes feel like the low end of mild, at least to me.

[socialistjustin]

I love winter, but I don't like it getting cold so early. The problem with Vegas is that we don't get true winters. We get the cold temperatures, but most of the time it rains instead snows and it can get windy too. So instead of it getting all white outside its gray and miserable. Last week for example it was in the low 40's with 25mph gusts of wind and rain. That's no fun.

Of course its better than 110°, which is what we get during the summer!

110 is 43C! I would probably melt in that kind of heat!

I think the hottest weather I've ever been in is around 33C/91F, which is very rare for the UK and extremely hot for us (a hot day here usually starts at around 18C or 64F).

[socialistjustin]

The hottest I have ever had the pleasure of sweating in was like 115°. You can't even open your door because the metal on the handle will burn your hands. It stays hot like this for like a month too. During July and early August it rarely gets below 100° and is usually nearer the 110° mark I mentioned.

[ÑóẊîöʼn]

Its hard to learn things when you're older.

In some instances I can accept that is the case, but what about shit like this:


At the end of the eighties I was working for a company that made software for doctor's offices. I frequently gave demonstrations to small groups of physicians. One of the main concerns was safety. There was so much talk about hackers. Would their patient records be safe from intruders? I explained to them that one could only get into a computer from outside the office if the modem was on, and the computer was running a communication program and acting as a host. At that time, this was a rare situation in private practice. But even the most powerful argument I could think of, "You can't break into a computer that's turned off," did not have the impact I had hoped for. One way or the other they were convinced that a clever hacker would not be stopped by such a trivial problem!

I mean seriously, what the fuck? How can someone get themselves through medical school and become a doctor without at some point realising that any and all electrical devices simply will not function if they are switched off?

It seems to me to be more a failure of logical thinking than a failure to familiarise oneself with new technology. Yet I would have thought that logical thinking is a de facto job requirement of being a doctor.

My Dad and me cooking that 5 course dinner...with the stupid Turkey slaving away for hours on a meal and then at the last minute forgetting the parsley. And my dad getting a little high on wine. He is 72 and he doesn't matabolise the wine as good as he used to...and lamenting how this totally, seriously without question ruined the course. He does this every year. He forgets every year. And it takes him the whole evening to come to terms with the fact that parsley is bloody useless and nobody noticed untill he started ranting about it.

And then my mom (73 since december 10th) wants me to light the Christmas tree...she insists on candles...so every year we are sitting next to a huge fire hazzard which...is placed in front of the bookcase which houses about 1000 additions to a bonfire waiting to happen. And you would expect that after 34 years of me lighting the Christmas tree without any incident she would have SOME confidence in my abilities...but noooooo....she hovers over me with that serious doubting look all mothers get once in a while... (Ow...HS...please becarefull. Don't drop the matchs, son. Please don't move the candels or they might burn a branch).

So yeah....I love Christmas. We get to spend the evening talking about how all her friends became grandmother. And how their children are doing so well in life with their families. Quickly followed by the addition that she is sooooo ok with not being a grandmother yet. And then she looks at me and says: anybody important in your life yet???

Well...at least I hope she isn't trying to match me to the daughter of one of the neighbors.....like last year. "Ow....you know...so-and-so broke up with her boyfriend and she is really sad. Hmm...do you know she is really smart and she has become such a pretty girl. Maybe you could ask her out sometime....here is her number. Ow And I gave her your number just in case you forget to call. "

Really? Are you THAT ok with not being a grandmother yet? :rolleyes:

And my dad is going on and on about the fact that I do not have a job yet. And how much that is bad! Yeah, dad...I know....I have no cash remember? And how I should have tried harder in school...so I would have gotten better grades. Like that would have mattered....soemthing I did 18 years ago.


So this year...when they start doing that shit....

I am going to tell them I have discovered I am gay, have a tattoo and that I am dating a lovely strapping lad who works in the porn industry and thinks he can get me a job. I am going to do this when their friends come over at boxing day. I have this all planned out and I downloaded some very revealing pictures on my phone so I can proudly show them to everybody. Then I am going to have a girl friend of mine call me and I am going to pretend it is him.

So tomorrow somebody is going to give me that Tattoo with a magic marker. My parents won't know the difference. I am going to have it be a little fairy on a mushroom.


TAKE THAT PARENTS!!!


You should have given me the Taco Christmas....and that Nintendo when I was younger

It has come to my attention that some of the membership live in countries in which people don't actually wait until Christmas Day to celebrate Christmas and instead just get all "I'm sooooo impatient, let's just do this shit NOW!!!" Christians, eh? Never did understand 'em :rolleyes:

Therefore, I feel we should get some Christmas spirit up in this thread. I suggest a tree:

Seems that it does, yes...an overlapping of two distinct cultures...I know what you guys are thinking! You're thinking this is a perfect opportunity to introduce that klezmer-reggae fusion crossover stuff I mentioned a few days ago!

Like she really knows anything about Israel or the Middle East in general. I'm sure she thinks she is an authority on the subject because of all the Fox Nexs she's watched about the conflict. I could almost guarantee she knows little history on the area, and even then not past the 1940's and nothing Fox News hasn't told her. I love how people form opinions on subjects they know little to nothing about. "Well I read a book on it and saw some reports on T.V. about it so this is my stance and I'm not moving from it." Shut up, you know nothing...

I googled how to become a virgin again, and I found an article that said there are two different ways -

"Becoming a virgin again involve two method
1: By Hymenoplasty surgery or hymen repair
2: By the use of a cream" - http://www.articlesbase.com/womens-issues-articles/become-a-virgin-again-207356.html

So your methods may be flawed, consider the cream as it's probably cheaper than surgery, lol.

Guys I need help. I keep going on facebook communism boards and attempting to debate conservatives and libertarian cappies. At one point I was nice and welcoming, then I was just reasonable, but I've lost all hope of trying to explain my points of view, so I've degenerated into simply showing them what massive pieces of shit they all are. I think its made me angrier, and I need calming down, and forgetting about these motherfuckers. Also I need reasons not to go back there so I can play some Skyrim.

No, no... the unicorns weren't being sacrificed. You need a virgin to catch a unicorn, then that evolved into sacrificing virgins to various people important to communist or marxist history.

Trust me, it happens to the best of us. I deal with it all the time on this board.

Seeing I cant leave this board, best thing to do is just take a breather of down time, or just ignore the posts that are designed to pull you in and lose it. Its hard, and you will fail occassionally, but hey, what doesnt kill you makes you stronger.

Hindsight, could I sell my services to you as a unicorn hunter? All I ask for is ammunition for my unicorn hunting guns and tacos to sustain myself. And also some pepper spray so I can avoid being raped and keep my job. We have a deal?
Also nobody better sacrifice me to Satan, Lenin, Stalin, or any other entity. Seriously.

Yes offcourse...

but I do not do wage contracts so I would suggest we would make it an equal partnership

I would like to push the fucker under the bus. I have no idea why.

You know why? They have no principles, they'll tourture a mouse in a second, but punk ass pansy cats know that messing up a baby will get them hurt, although I bet I could find babies that have been killed by cats.

If Lassie was a cat you'd have NO show.

Well...yeah but your claim of cat hero's has already been disproven ;)

On the other hand...my claim of cats being rarely harmful to children and grown ups because of vicious attacks has not. And a quick google search will substanciate the claim.

On search results for "baby killed by cat/dog" . We get a 43 million against 108 million result return. And for cats the top 5 pages deal with the myth of cats killing babies....while one story leads by saying a cat MAY have killed a baby by...get this...sleeping next to it. While the Top 5 pages of dogs deal with serious injury resulting in death, news paper clippings of funerals of babies and infants which have been killed in vicious dog attacks (inlcuding btw a bizon baby).

So the offset is that dogs may save more humans than cats....but they also kill far more of them. Which renders that argument useless.


Now I am not sure how this makes cats unprincipled....and that is besides the fact that I am not exactly sure how princioples come into play by mauling and infant, baby or toddler come into the equation.

Seem to me cats are far more principled than dogs.

While dogs lay rendered completely useless untill their owner comes back...litterally putting their entire lives on hold....to...once their owner returns be slavishly submissive. Cats simply have a live and a personality regardless of their owner.

Now...cats don't bark yap and snarl at house guests.,,,and they do not try to bite them.

Cats are less loud than dogs.

Cats groom themselves and rarely roll around in dusgusting stinking substances like rotting fish, shit and garbage...because they think it smells nice.

They do not need to be walked 5 times a day....sure...their littterbox starts to smell something aweful after a few days...but cleaning this every two or three days is NOTHING compared to the 15 minimal walks a dog really needs.

And on the subject of litter boxes. Cats have one place to shit and piss. If a dog doesn't get a walk it will dump their shit all over the house....wherever. they have NO sence of sanitation at all. And they sometimes eat their own shit too. Something cats don't do. Much less they lick your face afterwards.

Cats do not slobber all over you. Dogs do...they drool, the jump up on you with their muddy paws and start slobbering. The rare induvidual dog will get so over exited that it pisses itself and pisses over you just because it can NOT control its emotions.

Cats are also way less expensive than dogs to keep. Way less expensive. For the price of one submissive spineless git you can keep 4 cats.

Cats require far less attention than dogs. Dogs need constant attention. Cats do not. Cats can look after themselves and amuse themselves. Dogs on the other hand will constantly focus on what its master does and requires a huge amount of conscious or subconscious reinforcement.

Now cats can be left alone for some extend of time. Dogs can't. Not only because they will shit and piss up the place but they will starve to death simply because they will not and can not themselves dose their food...cats however eat what they need (rare cases excluded). Dogs cannot stand the lack of presence of their owner. Cats can basically do with three days without them.

So today I saw a kitchen/bathroom outfitters (or whatever you call those shops that stock sinks and toilets and stuff) and they had posters up everywhere saying "your husband called, he said you can buy anything you want" or words to that effect and even I - who generally can't be bothered to react to stupid stuff I see in my everyday life - had to stop and think "oh c'mooooon, didn't you even notice the 50's ending?"

Catz rulz and dogz druzls...lol

My cat slept with me all night and kept my legs warm and was constantly on my partner's lap when he was over;which is odd since he is usually a chickenshit (the cat,not my partner).

I have three cats and two dogs and can say that cats seem more intelligent and aloof, while occasionally cute and cuddly, while dogs are idiots but adorable all the damn time. I love them both.

Hey! You need to follow Rev-Left rules and be sectarian! Choose a side: cat or dog? :lol:

[RGacky3]

Well, if you have a cat you better not be stuck in something and want help unless you have a can of tuna.

^ I was going to post that exact same picture a few days ago but the forum wouldn't show it for some reason.

[Agent Ducky]

Am I the only one who thinks Pyro is a badass name for a cat?

On the subject of cats vs. dogs, I've never been allowed to have either. Just chinchillas, aka Rodents Of Unusual Size.

Although when I move out I desperately want to have a black cat and name it Sabotage. Yes.

Stellar names, I should have you name my pets as lately my family has gotten lazy in naming: little kitty, gray kitty, White kitty, Orange...

[Agent Ducky]

Which is weird, because I normally suck at naming things/need to take a lot of deliberation time before naming things.
Although if I had a cat named Pyro I'd have to resist the urge to dress it up in a little kitty gasmask because TF2.

Drinking for the President's campaign kick-off speech....errr.. the State of the Union Address!

[StockholmSyndrome]

I unexpectedly got the day of work today so I'm watching movies on my Netflix and I'm 3 Manahattans in at 1:40. Yes, I do realize this is my second consecutive post about drinking, and the second consecutive post on this board, by me, about drinking... :P

[soviechetnik]

Well it seems that I have for some reason been "restricted" and cannot post in my introductions thread anymore...
Anyway,I would like to explain that my nick doesn't really tell about me as a person or my beliefs,for I am neither very pro-Soviet nor pro-Chetnik (although they weren't absolute evil as they're sometimes portrayed).
The Balkans is a very complicated matter....

BTW what is a "third positionist"?:confused:
