Yeah, we do that at my pub.

It's how you make the room look good, and it's quick.

I can, off the top of my head, name about 20 people who go around telling people they have ADD without a proper diagnosis. Same for OCD. Most likely, the same for depression.

For each of those illnesses, I can probably name about 2 people I know who have actually been diagnosed.

I totally agree with this. Mental illness is incredibly intangible, and often hard to diagnose even for professionals. It's a gradient, more like hand-eye coordination than a broken bone (I have poor hand-eye coordination, but others have it worse.)

Because of the stigma, it's very easy to take advantage of the system. Almost anyone can fake anything, and no one can verify it without seeming insensitive.

And without the support of the truly mentally ill calling out the fakes and supporting verification, it will be hard to remove the stigma of fakers.

I thank you for your opinion, but have you told them that?

Dawkins himself, eh? Who is he, the leader of the Atheists?

(Yes, I know who he is, and I like him. But if Richard Dawkins said that he's certain that gods don't exist, I would still be uncertain)

I lived there for a few years, and loved it. My favourite? Head to the ocean and find some tide pools. Get a dog and play on the beach (Dallas Road trail is a giant off-leash dog park)

The people are as laid back as they say, but there is a refreshing and growing influence of young entrepreneurs running some great shops and restaurants.

Condescending, yes. Wrong? On no level whatsoever.

You can't be serious. Is there a point to this? It's certainly not evidence of anything.

Frozon · 6 days

I was thinking that the whole time. What is this, the 40s? Let your daughter grow up and, god forbid, touch a man.

And if you do, you pay a fine and get the woman.

Rape away, good sir! Be lonely no more!

I want a mini dolphin for an aquarium. How fucking cool would it be to have a dolphin in your living room?

Care to elaborate? What are we currently capable of or on the cusp of, and what parts are science fiction?

Similarly, I'm a manager, and was told "if you're the smartest person on your team, it says more about you than it does about them."

I disagree.

Having bigger feet means you need to lean farther forward. Take a half a step inwards (Pretend you have smaller feet) - it's suddenly easy.

It's all about distance from the wall.

Technically, he is right. Saying "no god exists" would require proof.

But most of us don't claim that.

Well, or that she doesn't put much stock into dolling herself up, while he probably goes to a revitalizing spa treatment every morning, and has a team of style advisors.

When my home laptop died after 8 years (the last 3 were on Ubuntu, to use less power and keep her alive longer), I called the IT supplier we use at work and told them I need a cheap new laptop.

"No problem. What size drive do you need?"

"I use it for Gmail and solitaire, and maybe Office on occasion, so whatever."

"No problem. What about processor speed?"

"I use it for Gmail and solitaire, and maybe Office on occasion, so whatever."

"Alrighty. What size screen?"

"I use it for Gmail and solitaire, and maybe Office on occasion, so whatever."

"Okay, do you have any data you need us to retrieve?"

"Nope."

"Alrighty. We'll get you a few quotes within the hour."

The range was from $400 - $1000. I chose the $400 one, and still feel like I have way too much power.

My bookkeeper got a new computer, and opened IE, then closed it, over and over again. I happened to be watching her, and asked her what she was doing.

"I need the internet. This just opens Google."

If I ever want to piss off a neighbour, I will make a poster decrying atheism and cat pictures, add their phone number, and post it to Reddit.

That's not surprising. A friend has a house a third that size with 4 bedrooms and 18 bathrooms. Each bedroom has a bathroom (and fireplace, mini fridge, walk in closet and safe), the pool area has one, all three major entrances, the offices, etc...

(That's not counting the guest house, staff house, boat house, barn, and rest house on the trails.)

Christ on a bike, I startled my pet bunny off my lap when I read "a whole kitten."
