A lot of news outlets published incorrect photos of the suspects because local news pulled some photos off FB and misidentified them at first. Her son is the one in the middle, his father is black (there's an interview out there with him too.) So a black kid, a mixed-race kid, and a white kid; it'll be interesting to see how the FB racists spin that. In court today the white kid claimed to be the shooter.




So the guy who "knew" was half right in his racism?

That's probably a really good batting average compared to his usual "knowledge".

Quite easily since Leviticus doesn't apply to Christians you blithering loving idiot.

Or it's bullshit atheists.txt stuff, but that one misconception really just annoys me.

Oh boy, I'm gonna regret this, but the most common interpretation of St Paul's letters is that the ritualistic laws no longer apply, but the personal morality laws do, that is to say, the laws about being clean and unclean, or whether or not one was eligible to participate in rituals, were abolished with Christ's death on the cross, while the morality laws such as no homosexuality and commandments are still in effect because Jesus reaffirmed them in the Gospel.

Here's an idiot:



The basic content of the status this comment thread is attached to is that a friend of mine made the mistake of seeing if slash fiction existed between two characters. It did and it was pretty depraved apparently. Then Sal cuts in.

Sal is a creepy motherfucker. He's just the most sexually warped person I have met, and he's just so disturbing on so many levels. Not only does he do weird sexual poo poo (Alone, needless to say he hasn't had much luck in the love department), but he discusses it openly as he seemingly has no ability to comprehend that telling people on a public site that your cat licked your balls once whilst you were masturbating (and that you enjoyed it) isn't the smartest move.

He says the content of the books took place before he was born. The first book was published in 1997. That means that this guy is 17 years old at the oldest. Why are you friends with a 17-year-old boy who is "the most sexually warped person you have met?" :psyduck:

Not necessarily--and yes, I'm embarrassed by the fact that I know this--but the timeline of the book itself happened in the past. IE, Harry Potter was born in '80 or '81, something like that? So the prologue at the end when everyone was an adult was set in the "current" time.

The poster is still creepy as poo poo, though.

A quick Google says the books take place from 1991-1998, meaning about 30 would be more or less right for a character that's 16 in the last book.

What irritates me most is people who joined the military when they were 18, people who have never lived paycheck to paycheck or had to worry about losing their job or paying for their healthcare. They’ve been completely removed from the civilian world their entire adult lives and they can’t seem to fathom that bad things happen to good people because they get a paycheck every two weeks even if they’re a total fuckup.

Am I correct in thinking that when you're in the military housing, education and healthcare are all subsidised for you? Plus then you get your pay on top?

Military pay can be totally hosed up sometimes due to a number of bureaucratic issues, but generally, yes. As a single sailor I get a paycheck every two weeks, a barracks room, dental, and medical care. When I get promoted to E-5 I'll get a housing allowance that will give me enough for a modest apartment. When I get out of the Navy, I'll have G.I. benefits as well.


It's not perfect by any means, but I'm better off right now than many of the people I graduated high school with.

Yeah or old friend whom we lost touch with but connected on Facebook when we were feeling kind and compassionate one day. Then they posted poo poo about #benghazi and you wonder how you tolerated them years ago and now your only recourse is to block everything. Then in a drunken stooper you look at their feed one night and have a wealth of material for this thread. In some ways I hate it because those people are horrible but I also love the train wreck some nights.

My uncle divorced her before Facebook was invented.

Although my friend's ex is the kind of guy who tried to explain that the N-word just means "ignorant" (in the sense of "stupid rear end in a top hat who has opinions I disagree with" that was popular with the chronic fuckups when I was in high school). He thought it meant that and that he, a white, drunk-drivin'-rear end pothead conspiracy theorist, was totally allowed to go around calling people niggers as a result.

Also he refused to speak near my passport because he thought it was an NSA bug.

That fuckin' guy. I should look him up, but I bet he knows I hate him by now.

A good chunk of the posts in this thread in GIP are stories of financial irresponsibility. There are also some other incredibly hilarious stories, such as Vasudus accidentally "invading" a wrong country. http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3519705

Coincidently enough, one of the few people that I have actively considered defriending because of his bigoted posts is a former marine. This thread makes me glad that the people on my Facebook friends list mostly post banal things and not the racist/sexist/otherwise stupid things that we see in this thread.
