Somebody wants to suppress advertising, too, though.

What about the schadenfreude fom pissing off Hitler?
Of course, he might become even more psycho from it.
You guys do what works for you, and I’ll do what works for me. Maybe I just don’t have the patience. Or maybe you don’t have something required to understand lossily compressed info. Or both. I just know that books take all day long and help as much as short online tutorials. And the tutorials are often free.
No, I know all those words, but you’re using them way too much. A lot of them are very apt labels, but they just don’t look right outside of TV Tropes. Just like outdated slang.
TV Tropes will ruin your vocabulary.
They get ME bored. Every book is six hundred to a thousand pages, and when you’re done with it, you’ve got a hundred pages worth of knowledge. I think it’s better to memorize some passwords, then separately look up specific ideas that didn’t make sense.
In college, I found most of the time that the professor’s lecture notes contain almost everything of value that both the textbook and the lecture contains, but they contain ten times less text. This led me to believe that textbooks are a terribly inefficient way to convey facts, by comparison to the format of lecture notes. Books are words, words, words, flowery metaphors, digressions, etc. Hell, I don’t know what they spend all those words on. But I know that, potentially, lecture notes are one fact after another.

God = 3.
See, the difference is not that meat isn’t “to my taste”. I like the taste. The problem is that it’s EVIL.
I have ADD, and I think that I’m somewhere between the two extremes. Although not working is always more fun than working, I find that I can get in the flow on occasion, and crank out a lot. But even my strongest flows are punctuated by many distractions.
Well, the Santa deception wasn’t used on me. The false belief I held was that nobody actually takes Santa seriously. And also that I was bought in a store, which made me wonder where the store got me. Although I didn’t take that one too seriously either, finding out the truth was still pretty disturbing. You mean he… she… they… EWWW! (Yeah, I got better.)
(Meme) Penis goes where?
I frickin love oysters. Try them some time.
So what IS the best fighter?
Then be surprised.
“What’s the worst argument you can think of?”
Since you asked… Some people told me I shouldn’t be vegetarian because I kill plants.
And my reaction to such arguments is the surprise of learning that the human mind really is that broken. I used to be under the impression that as intelligence rises, the ability to spot certain fallacies should be reached before the ability to ride the long bus.
I don’t feel any pain, but sometimes I feel like I’m SUPPOSED to get an ice cream headache from the overwhelming stupidity.
For some reason, I really like “a elk”.
And the answer is, “Yes! I run the world’s biggest honeypot for teenage idiots who want to post pics of themselves racing on a freeway with a suspended license and a beer in the cupholder.”
The problem with some creationists (the ones who get the basics), as I understand it, is not that they don’t think evolution is happening, but that they don’t think it’s fast enough to transform proto-bacterial zero-cellular balls of chemicals into people in a mere three billion years. Although, personally, I think it’s a really long time.
