  1. I'm pretty sure Bill is too old to join up. Regardless, though, I don't think he will get your point unless you include photos of dead kids. The al-Assad government in Syria is killing and torturing children in an effort to crack down on anti-government protesters. Apparently, though, Bill took offense to Pat's desire to kill this asshole. Maybe Bill needs to see some pictures of dead and tortured kids. That seems to be his style.

    Who was Paul Revere?

    She's the darling of the republican party.

    Who was Paul Revere?

    Sarah's response to journalists who asked her who Paul Revere was: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2011/06/sarah-palin-claims-paul-revere-warned-the-british-that-they-werent-gonna-be-takin-away-our-arms.html LOL you can't make up this shit. Tea Party Express!!!!
  4. would someone put bill on a leash, please? Or will we only block snuff pics if some girls complain about it? I bet I can find a lot of snuff pics. Should we play this game?
  5. Back off, man. I'm a scientist.
  6. 100 yards???? My landing zone is much closer to my ball-field.
  7. REGRESSIVE SHILL!
  8. Yeah, that's EXACTLY what TTK thinks. TTK is a lot of things, but war-mongering imperialist is just one of them. In fact, he's been a fan of war-for-oil from the beginning.
  9. Progressive? I think you mean OPPRESSIVE!
  10. ready? FIGHT!
  11. I can't wait until we start modifying the human genome. Imagine if cigarettes weren't bad for you and alcohol didn't destroy your liver? WINNING.
  12. poor guy. Asks for info on moving his shit, and everyone's already trying to get him to switch schools. lolzers!
  13. Yeah, that's way worse than "cunt."
  14. Science is nothing more than a progression of "messing up" on our way to finally getting it right. Do you hate maths, too????
  15. Increasing pest and disease resistance is one of the most common reasons behind primitive genetic modification. Wheat, in particular, has gone through significant alteration (mostly through selective breeding) to increase it's resistance to certain diseases and pests, improve hardiness, etc. My point is just that we're not doing anything different than we've ever done. Our technology is just advancing, and theoretically that means we can actually create safer alterations to genetics because we can employ more surgical and thoughtful techniques. And actually, we've caused certain problems with even our primitive tinkering. Again, wheat in particular was recently (mid-20th century) modified significantly to help India solve famine. There have been a lot of unintended consequences as this strain became common place. One research firm is investigating using recombinant DNA technology to "undo" this strain and return wheat back to what it was in the early 20th century. Science is cool, jb. It's what makes humans awesome.
  16. Ooooh, maybe they could make a real turducken! YUM!
  17. Humans have been genetically modifying food for thousands and thousands of years, and have been consistently improving our technology to do so. Many of the fruits and vegetables you find in stores (even the organic ones), and especially corn and wheat, have been dramatically altered by human hands. In many cases, the native species no longer exists. Now, I'm not a fan of agribusiness, but the notion that GMO strains are automatically some sort of Frankenstein monster is just uninformed. As is the notion that non-GMO foods are somehow unsullied by the hands of men already.
  18. is it because you hate math?
  19. j_b = anti-science
  20. Can I get that with extra GMO?
  21. mmmm I could really go for an egg mcmuffin right now.
  22. I was born in Colorado, and look how *I* turned out. It's something in the water.
  23. SCIENCE SURE IS SCARY!!!!!!!!!11111

    Kids Today!

    what is a "service goon?"
  25. This seems overly complicated, considering that raw milk cheese is easily accessible from domestic sources, and quite legal (assuming it's aged at least 60 days).
