[–]Apollos 3 points4 points ago

My girlfriend was pissed when I told her I was going to step outside while she and her family "munched on Jesus" during communion at her brother's confirmation last week.

"Muslim" isn't a race.

I like this idea both because its probably awesome and cheaper than buying copper cookware.

Definitely. I love a couple fingers of a nice single malt. I like Glenlivet 12 and Macallan 12 and I am sure I like others...its just an expensive habit I can't afford to splurge on. Yet.

And that pic looks dangerous...and awesome!

TIL that learning new information and suddenly seeing it elsewhere is called the "Baader Meinhof Phenomenon" by AAAAA42in todayilearned

[–]Apollos 4 points5 points ago

haha yeah...I can see that.

After I looked up the (gross) definition, it made a little more sense. He was talking about how he regularly hires a woman to come in and clean up all the construction debris once he is done with the demolition work and he mentioned she'll get all the "smegma" in the corners, etc.

I won't be able to look at the guy the same now...

god...dammit! I literally first heard that word, used by the contractor remodeling my kitchen, about 12 hours ago. I even remember thinking "wtf does that mean? I'm going to look it up."

...and here we are.

Fact: Patrick Carney's (drummer from The Black Keys) uncle is Ralph Carney who played Sax for Tom Waits.

Congressman Ryan then: [Ayn Rand] the reason I got involved in public service. Congressman Ryan now: It's a liberal slam to say I like Ayn Rand. by johnhummelin politics

[–]Apollos -8 points-7 points ago

It doesn't help when you discredit yourself by referring to libertarians as "idiots."

You seem to have all the answers and, among them, the belief that a central government is the only viable engine to your "building a better society."

Libertarianism is not yoked to capitalism or any other economy type. Stop using such a big paintbrush. Your tone is annoying and detrimental to the progress you claim to want.

"Yer an atheist Harry." by bdwilson1000in atheism

[–]Apollos 1 point2 points ago

sorry for being forward but, as a new atheist, I hate the idea of "militant" atheism. what the fuck does that mean? the blanket quote in the OP assumes legislation that may offend atheist necessarily offends all atheists...

we're not a banner. if we allow ourselves to be, we're no better than those we disagree with.

What did religion ever do to me? When I was little, I wanted to be a scientist. Then, I got this shit drilled into my head daily. (Taken from my mother's Facebook wall.) by Apollosin atheism

[–]Apollos[S] 1 point2 points ago

no, I accepted a long time ago that all research and knowledge was worthless...because "God is in control" blah blah blah

I regret it profoundly...but I gave up my thirst for knowledge entirely.

The ONLY benefit from the experience is the first hand knowledge of just how thorough the brainwashing is. Fucking scary.

I'm not ruling it out though. I'm 26 now...I just need to figure out how to afford school.
