I bet you can't tell us why he is a cunt without making an emotional argument.
In my book, anyone who thinks "God said I could" is sufficient justification for killing a highly intelligent mammal is a cunt. I wouldn't necessarily say that hunting an elephant under any circumstance makes one a cunt, but there are way more factors to consider than whether God approves.
Any argument against hunting will involve some degree of emotion, and that includes hunting humans. That doesn't negate the argument or make it wrong.

I have hunted pretty much all my life. Even now, with multiple debilitating injuries I manage to thin the rat, possum and assorted vermin of my neighborhood. But if you're just shooting things without a code, you're not hunting, you're just killing things. There is no need to control the elephant population with hunting. It is only so that locals can get rich and some wealthy idiot can bolster his fragile manhood. Elephants are bright, have been over-hunted, and nobody needs the meat.

If you're not controlling a pest problem that would otherwise be poisoned or hunting non-intelligent animals for meat, you're just killing things for the fun of it. That might be an emotional judgement, but it is one that speaks to our fundamental humanity.

Oh well, so long as it serves a useful purpose.

There's something a bit odd about this story. Ansari is an SJW and therefore obviously a total creep and - shocker - he's a pussy hound. Why wasn't she firmer?

She didn't say no to having sex. She let him go ahead and decided to humiliate him afterward because she didn't enjoy it. If she didn't want to do it she should have been clear about it instead, she comes out later, anonymously, to talk about what a lousy lay this guy was.
PZ loves this, thinks it is great, and says look out guys this may happen to you. This is really lovely, it looks to me like every passive-aggressive malignant bitch wants to fuck over someone she can do it anonymously too.

Aziz did nothing creepy, even by her own account. She behaved indecisively & so he campaigned for her to decide in his favor... giving her reasonable option to choose otherwise. She's disinginuous in claiming that her passivity indicated dissent rather than assent-- because she displayed PLENTY of ability to sharply dissent then & there, when she felt-like complaining "You guys are all the same!" and "I hate men."

I don't know if Aziz is an SJW. His declaration of Feminism on Letterman (embedded in the article) sounds like a hapless guy who is new to the topic, not an inveterate bad-actor.

I knew Aziz in passing, when he was basically a college kid who realized he'd never grow to be physically imposing-- but who also realized he could more-than compensate with devilish charm. It has served him well & I hope he unapologetically collides head-on with this #metoo smear... he'll emerge a hero. He might not have it in him, tho. Too agreeable.
Yea, I'd largely agree with that. Didn't read the whole "bill of particulars" - of course, but the "lady" seems to be protesting far more than even her account can justify. Sommers seems to agree:

Of what boost to the economy do you speak, and which specific laws has trump changed to effect that?
How about the tax laws? Americans might call them codes or something, we call them laws.
And then there is the very highest form of law, the international treaty. Trump Ripped up the Trans Pacific Partnership... because who wants to be partnered with trans people?

I don't really need to defend Trump, the sky hasn't fallen in and the economy is doing fine.

... On do you base your assumption that the US economy is 'doing fine'? It's sluggish and has been for the past 17 years.

...
What measures would you use to define a non sluggish economy? Tax receipts, Debt, trade balance, job creation?

LoL "Guys. Guys. You should be terrified of this new development."

Expect the result of that to be a serious reduction in the birth rate. Or an increase in marriages and a subsequent one in divorces. Or an increase in the revenue of "ladies of easy virtue". Or maybe even an increasing interest in an iPhone App to securely record the events for posterity ... ;-)

But at least in the short term until cooler heads prevail, even if the chances of that seem slim.

Don't veterans already get some sort of college deal from the US government for their service?

And yes, US citizens might appreciate the college tuition. But if that bothers you, fork out your own cash for scholarships.

Much like the book Everyone can be a Successful Millionaire with these Easy Five Steps (it worked for the author).
It is called:
1. Have a emergency savings fund.
2. Set money aside each pay cycle to invest in diversified low cost index funds.
3. Don't go into debt and pay interest with exceptions for college or a house, maybe a car initially.
4. Have proper insurance for expenses you would not be able to swallow (Health, Home, Auto), but make them as high deductible as you can deal with.
5. Track your expenses.

Yeah. Its part of the GI bill. College tuition for VA approved schools is one of the benefits they earn for their service, along with access to the VA healthcare system.

Aziz Ansari has no excuse. He should have known after two blowjobs and half an hour of naked lounging that she wasn't interested in getting physical.

It's a good thing he hasn't made any enemies. :lol:
Someone might be tempted to concoct the real story about what happened during the zoom incident, anonymously of course, because unlike PZ she isn't a public figure and send it in to a reliable publisher like Melissa McEwen. I can guarantee you it is an icky, creepy story.

WARNING! Incoming ballistic missile to the Slymepit. Take immediate shelter on another blog. This is not a drill.

I just saw a video on the news where this guy put his kids in the sewer. The little girl says, “I don’t want to go down there”.

In our situation it would be like, “I don’t want to go to Pharyngula”.

Crazy days.

I would, but my time machine doesn't seem to work in that direction. Instead, when I sit in my chair in front of this computer, I often leap forward by several hours. And I know that these are "leaps" forward, because they happen in a flash, outside of my awareness.

Maybe this is me being tired and (more than)(a bit of) an asshole, but I added just one letter to the fifth step and found how a woman make herself famous in the Age of Outrage (tm).

ps. if you're wondering, it was an "i" and I put it immediately after the "n"

Of course my argument is emotional, how could it not be, I hate seeing beautiful wild animals killed for no other reason than it makes some fat American dentist feel like Stewart fucking Granger.
As far as I'm concerned anyone who gets a kick out of slaughtering an Elephant for sport is a cunt and people who make excuses for them are cunts too.

That emotional enough for you Vicky?

On do you base your assumption that the US economy is 'doing fine'? It's sluggish and has been for the past 17 years.

trump has done very little since sneaking into office, aside from posturing and foaming at the mouth and tweeting/snorting at 3 in the morning. A year in, and he still hasn't filled half of government positions, which is crippling every agency's ability to do their job.
So you are basically saying that Trump has had no effect?
Can I take that as an admission that I was right...Trump isn't a totalitarian, America hasn't become a fascist state, there's no pogroms or death camps, the economy hasn't collapsed, the sky didn't fall and he this hasn't been a disaster?

I feel like I've seen this before.

"Trump's doing great!"
"Trump's not really had much impact on anything yet and the things you think are going to be great in the future likely won't be based on past trends."

The problem with your observation is that it doesn't start of with "Trump's doing great!"

It starts off with "Trump is a Nazi", "America is going to become a fascist totalitarian state", "They are going to kill all the black people", "He is going to make David Duke head of Homeland Security", "Brexit will be a disaster", "Britain will become a third world country", wailing, shrieking and gnashing of teeth. etc, etc, etc.

It then moves on to "Grow the fuck up and stop being a big girl's blouse".

And then goes on to, "So you think Trump/Brexit is doing great?".

Okay.

In unrelated news, seems like that one crazy bitch from the other day wrote a bitch-blog about Singal and he perhaps unwisely acknowledged it (although without linking or disclosing the author).

No it started with Pinker still suffering with Trump Derangement Syndrome a year into the Presidency. My comments were quite specific, I even said I have no need to defend Trump. I was specific about a few changes in the law concerning the economy, for which I provided examples, I didn't argue that those law changes would have any effect and I don't have to as my argument was that the hysterical predictions of the loony left have not and will not come to pass. It is Matt who is trying to derail this by trying to get me to defend Trump.

You're still obliged to defend your assertions about trump.

You gave two examples, and both were shit: withdrawing from TPP, which hadn't even gone into effect yet, and the new tax law, which hasn't even gone into effect yet. (Most economists believe both will hurt the economy.) I doubt you could even come up with any other examples.

Saying you made no claim as to whether they would be effective is a cop-out. One year into his term, trump has done fuck-all to tangibly improve the economy, and has reneged on numerous campaign promises in that area. You're grasping at straws to ... yes, defend him.

If you want to address my points about the tangible damage trump has done while occupying the WH, you'll need to wait until I make them, and not disingenuously poo-poo the fears of chicken littles.

You're still obliged to defend your assertions about trump.

You lost the argument, now you are trying to expand the scope to make me defend Trump. I told you, I don't have to.

My point was that Pinker is a hysterical wanker like so many other hysterical wankers with Trump Derangement Syndrome. ...many of them ecomminists. I don't have to prove Trump has saved America, I would just have to prove that Trump hasn't destroyed America, but you are doing my work for me by pointing out that so far he has done nothing and nothing is getting done. So then, no need to be alarmed.

Was there anything else you wanted to bitch about?

Okay.

In unrelated news, seems like that one crazy bitch from the other day wrote a bitch-blog about Singal and he perhaps unwisely acknowledged it (although without linking or disclosing the author).

No it started with Pinker still suffering with Trump Derangement Syndrome a year into the Presidency. My comments were quite specific, I even said I have no need to defend Trump.

No such thing, Vicky. Just typing two words and separating with a stroke doesn't make them related.

By and large people in my country don't care about politics in United States.

One is one thing and one is another. It's niaive of you to think you can shore up a flaky argument about one thing by appealing to an argument about something else entirely.

Clarity of thought involves focussing, discrimination, and simplification. Not lumping topics together in a vaguely defined package based on how they make you feel.

It is what it is. Frankly, corruption is the cost of doing business in some parts of the world... even here in the UK at times.

Culling excess populations is often considered cruel, but if populations exceed the ability of the habitat to sustain them, animals die by things like starvation, disease, and fighting for territory and ultimately populations crash and even disappear because they have destroyed their own habitat.
I like your argument for culling the human population of Africa.

WARNING! Incoming ballistic missile to the Slymepit. Take immediate shelter on another blog. This is not a drill.

I just saw a video on the news where this guy put his kids in the sewer. The little girl says, “I don’t want to go down there”.

In our situation it would be like, “I don’t want to go to Pharyngula”.
We all bloat down here.

There's no argument to lose, as you've made none, just bloviated.

I did not claim that trump has done nothing. He has done plenty of harm in many ways. He has indeed failed to do many things -- normal things that a normal president of any political persuasion would do just as a matter of course. But trump isn't a normal president; he isn't even a normal human being. He's a sociopath and completely psychotic.

At this point Myers is shit stirring for attention by shitting on anyone more famous and successful than he is (so he has plenty of possible targets).

That's all he has left, when he talks about anything else nobody cares.

He's a less entertaining CJ Werleman.

And 68 cunts at that. How much trouble would it have been to cite one more cunt, bringing the total number of cunts to 69 ?

And I like how that article says that a recent Quinnipec poll was biased, because only 23% polled were republicans, while 43% were Democrats, and 38% were independents/ How DARE theyb use a representative sample of the American voting public lol

I'm not sure she is even in 'atheism' at this point. (Whatever she means by that). She's obviously conflating the atheist and skeptic conference scenes - and I really doubt if she has much of a coherent worldview - beyond 'give me free stuff' and partying like a first year college student. It's a centrist take - the worlds got to revolve around someone.

And Bigfoot? Didn't Myers have a few harsh words to say about those sort of skeptics?

Just to raise the conversation.

At 18:15 Mark complains that Haitians are less capable of ordering their lives than his pet hamsters. He asks if he is the only genius to have noticed this.

18:50 Tara feels :nin:

She explains that she has been conducting her own research comparing the technical ability of sub-saharan peoples with animals. Her conclusion at
19:18 is that their technology is "literally" as sophisticated as the average beaver or river otter.

Im no civil engineer. But this sounds like quality stuff.

I think the Ansari thing is going to backfire on #metoo. Consensus is already building that the article was revenge porn for having a night of bad sex, or regret sex. Speculation on my part, but this may be something of a turning point for #metoo. Any more blatant public shaming like this and they're going to lose the moral high ground. The public won't turn on them all at once, of course. Way too much inertia for that to happen. The Titanic didn't go down all at once either.

Sooner or later the MeToo fad was always going to go out of fashion. The movement which inspired the fad is here to stay, though, and there'll be new feeding frenzies in the future.

Now I have to wipe my internet history. Brive, I worry about you sometimes.

On another tangent (and I think this has been brought up before): why are these rightwing women always so hot?

My theory is that the stress of having a role in public life tends to age liberal / leftest woman.

I'm sure there is currently some evo-psych study being done to work out why this should be.
