Wow... nice find.  Too bad Dominoes sucks ass.   

And a Thor movie could be great.  Some massive Thor vs. Loki battles on the big screen!

 

Got into an arguement with Joe and Brian about Chicago vs. Michigan pizza.  They believe their Papa Johns are better than Lou's or Giordannos.  I told them comparing Michigan pizza to Chicago pizza is like comparing a Lexus to a Geo.  Not bashing on MI- better traffic, nicer people, but Chicago area has better food.

 

Papa Johns?  What a couple of retards.  As a self proclaimed pizza aficionado I call total bull****.  Papa Johns, rofl... what is next, little ceasers is better than pizza hut?

 

"I haz no nipplez."

 

I noticed that, quite weird.

Also, I thought that reply would get a few +1s

 

Aww the poor whittle baby really really hates his government. I feel so bad for the Mtn. Dew hyper-active Aussie kiddie.

 

You continue to prove how much of an idiot you are.


Oh and it turns out that our PM, Kevin Rudd has said no to the Guantanamo Bay refugees. At least he has done one thing right.

 

Is that even legal for them to be forced to work under those conditions?

 

Good question.  I don't know enough about it to accurately say.  The comments there and another place I saw it don't seem to know for sure.  I would hope not, though I don't know exactly what harm "the cold" could do besides making them uncomfortable.  I guess they could dress like it is winter.  Dunno

 

I'm pretty sure the stuff the owner is doing can be argued as illegal.

certainly the canning of the guy was illegal if it could be proven, which according to the note, it sounds like it could be.  Just wasn't sure if the actual act of turning off the heat was against the law.

 

Burglar scared off by man in Thor costume

Torvald Alexander of Edinburgh, Scotland, returned home from a New Year’s Eve fancy dress party, when he encountered a burglar.

Upon seeing him decked out in Thor garb, the burglar jumped out the window of Alexander’s first floor apartment.

 

Lusi, do a fark + slapnuts = blog photoshop, it was so successful for Jasi!

 

Considering I haven't once ever been fark, I dont think it would have the same impact.

 

I'm going to just put it out there and say the guy probably **** himself because someone came home whilst he was jacking everything and then jumped out the window, costume or not.

Also hes Scottish and they're frightening.

 

Who would be scared of aluminum foil man?  Bet he gets good cell phone reception.

 

 

hahahaha

 

wow

 

Finally pulling videos out of your private collection Slapnuts?

I was actually talking to one of my Iraeli buddies last night whom I worked with in the summer. He has been travelling around around North America since August but now he's being called back for military service.

I'm pretty liberal in terms of foreign policy. I'm the type you would expect to be defending Hamas, but I'm not. There is a point where common sense needs to override your conventional rhetoric, and I had little doubt that those being overly critical of Israel in this particular incident are doing so for the sake of consistency.

The greater problem extends beyond this single incident and both parties are to blame. The circumstances of Israel's creation and whether or not it should have even taken place is arguable. Israel could easily do more to facilitate the existence of a sovereign Palestinian nation, but at what point do they draw the line? With many Palestinians and other middle-eastern governments calling for the complete abolition of Israel how do they ever satisfy the demands of their opposition. They can't, and both sides' refusal to accept reason places the blame on both of them.

Hamas' opposition to Israel is very valid, and while I do classify them as a terrorist organization what other options do they actually have? They fire into Israel's cities with little regard for who is hurt because they lack the technology to fight any other way. In a war with two sides who both have "legitimate cause" to fight, one side is backed with funding and technology by the most powerful countries in the world. The other has to either accept defeat or fight by any means necessary, which they are.

/endrant

 

Pretending that both sides are wrong is what needs to end. Yeah that sounds nice and neutral but in reality it's bullcrap. Israel is a country like Canada. They're not hate filled and they see the world and humanity with the same enlightened views we do. Their hostile neighbors do not. They're raised to hate. And there was nothing really morally wrong with the creation of israel. The jewish population was already living there. They made up almost 50% of the population and already had their own self-governance and administration. They essentially declared independence and created their own sovreign country within palestine with the support of the UN. And look what they did. They made an amazing country after the barbarism that was the holocaust despite the military invasions and terrorist attacks against their country. It world be as if Quebec decided to declare independence and start their own country. Would you support invading them or suicide bombing them?

 

And Israel has been willing to offer concession after concession and the other side has not. Israel wants peace. The arabs don't. Hating israel has almost become a way of life for them. And israel left gaza completely and as a result got attacked FROM gaza. And israel isn't funded and supplied with technology while their enemies get zilch. Israel's neighbors recieve a lot more aid and international support than israel recieves. The reason why israel is more powerful than their neighbors is because israel is more advanced. A lot of their people are Western educated.

 

that is the big thing that gets me.  one side is willing to coexist, the other is not.  It does amaze me how much slant the media puts on this situation one way or another.  It makes American politics seem tame.

 

At the same time though, I think it's easy to say "we'll coexist" when the validity of your right to exist is in question and your military superiority is such that they have no choice but to accept.

 

No ****. You act like that makes ISRAEL the culprits in this though. If israel didn't have such a poweful military and if arabs weren't so backwards they'd be totally wiped out. And what you take away from that sad reality is that it makes israel the bad guys and not the intolerant arabs???

 

 

This is how the Palestinians view the situation:

-I steal your loaf of bread.
-You get upset.
-I offer you half of it.
-You say "no, it's my bread".
-I offer you 2/3

At this point you're getting more than I am, but that doesn't change the principle that it's your bread. No matter how much I concede to you, who wins? Me, because I have bread that I wouldn't have otherwise had.

Their situation of course is far more complex. I'm just pointing out how they probably view it.

 

No here's their perspective.

-Islam and muslims are superior to all other religions and people.
-Allah commands me to conquer the infidels.
-What the fux. Jews and christaians are so much richer and more powerful than us. How can this be when they're infidel dogs?
-We must kill them at all costs to prove that allah and his religion are #1. Even if that means using our own children as suicide bombers. They're maryters and will get 62 virgin goats in paradise.

 

I agree with you on the general outlook of the Israelis. Like I said I've met 10-12 of them working in NY over the last two summers and am good friends with some of them. They are just regular people who are endlessly frustrated they have to fight when they don't want to.

A speculation that is shared by myself is whether or not Israel would have ever been able to declare sovereignty without, to be blunt, a post-holocaust sympathy vote. The Jewish population that existed prior to the formation of Israel migrated there during the previous 50 years while the British controlled what had been an Arab state. It was the creation of a country that did not exist and would never have existed had it not been facilitated by British colonialism, and backed by third party countries who had no stake. The point is they were allowed to move there by the British when they wouldn't have otherwise, and that's why they formed a large enough portion of the population to declare sovereignty.

Like I said, I do think that the Palestinians are the instigators. I have a pair of Palestinian friends and they do not by any means hate the Israelis. Understand that terrorism is the extremists, so the ones fighting Israel are those that hate them whereas the Israelis fighting represent every kid who graduates from high school. Most of the Palestinians have no idea why they're being bombed because they're completely separated from the militants. They aren't fighting the war that Hamas is fighting, and as a result they don't even understand why their buildings are being bombed. They think it's without reason, and they get angry. The lack knowledge, which is a very important part of the equation.

 

and also it was a jewish state before an arab one, who do you think built the first and second temples? have you never read the bible? i believe you're slightly misinformed, and saying the bible shouldn't be looked to for guidance in today's day and age, then you'd have to first denounce every religion that follows the same or a similar book.

 

Quebec can't be viewed in the same paradigm. Quebec's sovereignty would represent the secession of a localized ethnic group that forms a vast majority in their own territory, one that has been there since the initial formation of Canada.

We're talking an ethnic group that formed a small minority, was given the right to migrate by a 3rd party, was still a minority, and then given the right to sovereignty again by a 3rd party.

I'm not necessarily saying there is anything that modern-Israel can do about it. They can't reasonably dissolve their nation can they? The Palestinians are still trying to fight the same fight they were involved in decades ago when there was some possibility of winning. They're beating the dead horse while Israel's "compromises" refuse to acknowledge any wrong-doing. They are both to blame, maybe not equally, but both to blame.

 

hamas doesn't havent to either accept defeat or fight by any means necessary, they're the aggressors =/ in what sense did they have to accept defeat, defeat by whom? israel didn't threaten them, they pulled their own settlers out of gaza in hopes of gaining some semblence of peace in the area. Saying both sides don't use reason is pretty ignorant, and unfortunately my friend it isn't so black and white as you so simply put it in your "rant"

 

I don't think I'm the one placing it in black and white. Black and white would be saying that one is right and the other is wrong, and I think it's far more complicated than that. My point is less that Israel is at fault, and more that the Arabs have good reason to be upset.

In 1922 when the mandate of Palestine was set forth by the UN the area was only 11% Jewish. They demanded the existence of a Jewish "home" nation. So what do you do when the 89% of the country and all surrounding nations are firmly opposed? It took immigration facilitated by a third party to bring the population up to 33% by the end of WW2. The mandate was to establish a nation for the minority while it is opposed by the majority.

I've read through the entire bible. I don't believe the spiritual elements, but I have read it. I recognize that it was a Jewish area for well over a thousand years. It was conquered time and time again by different groups. This is the first time that it was handed over by a third party, which is why many find it infuriating.

Don't mistake this as support of Hamas. I'm not talking about them, I'm talking about a justified sense of frustration in Palestine as a whole that should not be resolved with violence. I'm just saying that it's easy when you're caught in Israel's position to claim to be the voice of reason. Prior to the formation of Israel, their minority population was constantly fighting within the British colony for control just as Hamas is doing now. I believe that the Palestinian's agression is more a product of position than of character. It doesn't help that the Islamic religion has a lot of trouble coexisting with others.

 

GNAA meetings are ******* wierd.

 

No one's giving Palestine F-15s. Is Israel more stable, richer and better educated than her neighbours? No doubt, but her backing is more hi-tech too. I can assume from your Quebec example that you think the South should have been allowed to break off in the American Civil War? (or you think it was about slavery, which is a horribly indefensible position)

I sort of agree with you, in that Israel is considerably less to blame than Palestine, but being better than Palestine doesn't make you above criticism.

Reply to Yogurt, GR is ******* ****.

 

People are a little less reluctant to sell military supplies to a country that only wants to protect itself and not take over the whole world. And arab countries have tons of military supplies from the East like Russia. They have MIGs which are more or less as good as F-15s. But israels airforce kicked their ass due to superior training and tactics. Only to get raped by air to ground missiles from Russia. And we're selling arab countries military supplies to improve relations which is retarded in my opinion. Including high end **** like stealth fighters. And I do think the south had a right to leave the union as does any other state. I think it would be a mistake but I wouldn't support using military force to keep them from leaving.

 

Far enough, as long as you're consistent.

I think it's unfair to lump all arab countries together. While there are obviously pretty major cultural differences between us and them, Saudi Arabia, as an example, isn't a belligerent country, even if we do dislike their legal system and government. Although I don't really agree with giving them (or anyone not a strong military as well as economic ally) access to the best fighter jets on the planet (Eurofighter Typhoons are better than everything, except possibly F-22s) or stealth jets just in case. It's pretty obvious why we want to improve relations with Saudi Arabia, though. I guess it's a calculated risk.

 

Forcing employees to work in 25 degree cold? Isn't it illegal to force employees, in Washington of all places, to work in below freezing temperatures? I imagine that there's some worker's rights that would protect them from something like this.

 

I don't see why it's illegal.  If you don't like it, find a new job.

 

I just imagine it would fall under something like "safe workplace" or whatever. Not that 25 degrees is particularly harmful, just something along those lines.
