I never would have thought of that, and I think of lots of stupid and dirty jokes and double meanings. I am convinced that OliviaForever is a troll. A brilliant troll.

It's so weird that they think US liberals would be somehow allied with Muslims. It's one of those things that's so incorrect that it's "not even wrong." Like, it's not even an incorrect statement because there's no question that it could incorrectly answer.

I'm pretty sure trying to reconcile their intense jealousy of any country which is still allowed to openly brutalise people who aren't like them and their hatred of all brown has killed a few of them.

So it turns out that the Rev. Al Sharpton was a mob informant for the Feds. The first thing I thought when I saw that was, how long is it going to take Freep to defend the Mafia. This thread has broken me.

Stultus Maximus posted:I had the exact same thought. Talk radio was already way ahead of you. Levin called Sharpton a "rat fink" yesterday, and lambasted him for helping the feds while also criticizing him for being a "street thug" drug dealer tax cheat. Then he called for an investigation into when Eric Holder knew about all of this because something something the president hung out with Bill Ayers and has met Sharpton a few times at the White House. Then later he asked if a black liberal caller would protect him from being attacked by that black liberal caller's family if Levin went to visit them. Hmm.. if I approach this from the standpoint of being a racist then all these things make perfect sense. I wonder if Levin is racist! Oh wait, he says he isn't, and so I guess I'll take his word for it because I'm implicitly wired to be trusting of white people.

WarpedNaba posted:Beat me to it. Remember kids, New Zealanders are also known as kiwis! Order your tasty lamb-fed child today! Also known as the Chinese gooseberry until 1959. quote:Among the exporters was the prominent produce company Turners and Growers, who were calling the berries melonettes, because the local name for the fruit, Chinese gooseberry, had political connotations due to the Cold War, and to further distinguish it from real gooseberries, which are prone to a fungus called anthracnose. An American importer, Norman Sondag of San Francisco, complained that melonettes was as bad as Chinese gooseberry because melons and berries were both subject to high import tariffs, and instead asked for a short Maori name that quickly connoted New Zealand. In June 1959, during a meeting of Turners and Growers management in Auckland, Jack Turner suggested the name kiwifruit which was adopted and later became the industry-wide name.

I'm pretty surprised that this is the first that FReep has heard of Sharpton's mob ties considering that he got his start as a bagman for Don King back in the day. It's not something that he talks about a lot, but it's not a secret either.

What the gently caress do these people think makes a comet a comet and not just an asteroid!? This is like basic day one space science stuff. This is a level of idiocy I never thought I'd see. It's like a creationist going "There are no animals! Never have been. Never will be!" Is that guy trying to make the argument that earth has the only water in the whole universe?

But then I spent literally five seconds googling and found a NASA article from this year that explicitly referenced frozen water on comets so Yeah there's no excuse for not googling for 5 seconds and finding out that comets have water. But even beyond that the "dirty snowball" idea has been around since the 50's. Now I'm not sure when the first evidence to confirm that came out but 2005's deep impact actually shows exactly the opposite of what swordmaker is saying, confirming that most of the water/ice is below the comet's surface. I'm sure sometime between 1950 and 2005 we had other evidence that comet's contain water. Either via spectroscopy or other observations.

Essentially, yes. The unswerving belief that God created the Earth first, then everything else, leads one to start with the assumption that water has to originate here. Creationists are the worst kind of scientists: they start with the Biblical as a priori then twist logic around it.
