Lol WTF?! "I ignored these people so I could prepare to say I'm prepared."

It's hard to find a news outlet other than FOX that isn't biased towards Clinton, Google/Youtube is one the worst even if the channel isn't a part of their corporate network.

God's* not dead.

You take criticism of your appearance way too hard. You look fine, significantly better than me if I say so.

sod off

He's 100% right. Fat is flavor, and what's worse is the US government is (((subtly))) trying to imply skim milk is somehow a normal part of every person's diet.

Don't believe me? Look up the nutrition facts and calorie intakes on your cereal box. What's that additional thing they add that increases your calorie intake with what you add to cereal? Skim milk. Where's 1%, 2%, or whole milk? When you take fat out of milk and you keep the amount of milk per gallon, you're replacing it with something else. Yeah you took the fat out of that low fat cupcake but you've replaced it with so much sugar that you're one step closer to diabetes and your metabolism has slowed down even further, resulting in your weight gain.

Fucking idiots I swear. If people stopped treating words like boogeymen, we'd all be a lot smarter.

The DON will pulverize everyone in the room.

Are you all ready to watch her crumble mid-debate?

We have (by far) the largest military in the world, one of the most robust volunteer agencies in the world through the Peace Corps, and are home to some of the larger charitable organizations in the world (Not including the Catholic Church). Yes, resources and manpower is going to finite. However, that isn't to say that we aren't one of the best equipped to actually assist nations that are in need.

Not to mention we often conduct assistance alongside countries who, like us, have similar abilities in terms of military and volunteer manpower.

The needs of the people in the Middle East are not nearly equivalent to the needs of people in, say, Honduras. One requires aid that is more military based, while the other is much more humanitarian.

And again, I'll repeat that the government of the United States is massive - the point where hundreds (if not thousands) can be focused on various issues at any given moment. That's the beauty of bureaucracy.

We are mostly involved with the Middle East because it affects our people and not the people in the country. We wouldn't do anything with military forces if it didn't affect our citizens. It's why we only give humanitarian aid in Africa to feed starving children and why we don't waste military might on stopping African warlords from savagely killing each other every other Tuesday.

Nowhere did I say that the issues in the Middle East should be ignored, nor do I believe anyone else in this thread did.

I never said anyone in this thread did, I said Obama did. The whole argument was brought up from:

As well as his push to pivot America from the Middle East to the Pacific Asia region. With his push to try to get the nation to give more attention to areas like Africa and the Latin America.

If we are so massive and omnipresent we have no reason to avert attention away from the Middle East. Either it is as you say and we have the resources to be able to focus on multiple areas at once or we don't and we need to make a hierarchy of what we must focus on. What you're saying is in conflict with what Obama is doing according to what OP and the article are stating.

Yet these artists are CHOOSING to have their tracks be sold individually with iTunes. They're not being forced to have this situation on them. If the artist really cared that much they can just deny letting Apple sell their work.

Really, my 2 cents is that albums should be listened to as a whole piece, at least most of the time. If an artist release a single they want you to just hear that song. I like adhering to their original intentions.

How is Costanza dead? People still post him over Oliver.

And how did you get Singles before iTunes was a thing?

If an artist wants you to buy a single track, they'll release it as a single.

How is it degeneracy? If an artist chooses to let you buy individual tracks why is that a problem?

You shouldn't have the option to only buy a fraction of it, it's a practice in degeneracy.

“Harambe” is also the name of a specific floor on UMass’s campus that’s been set aside for black students looking to live within a black community in a predominantly white school.

Wow, I was laughing hard up until this point. What the fuck is the point of diversity and integration if you're just going to segregate yourself?

Anyways, now I'm just going to post Harambe memes twice as much.

I still buy CD's depending on what it is. I bought the physical copy of every FFXIV OST from Square Enix but when it comes to an individual song, it doesn't make sense to buy an entire CD for a single track when I can just get the one song I want for literally a dollar. Also if I'm buying a disc chances are I'm going to just go get from Amazon so I of course also have to pay for shipping and wait for it to come to me whereas I get the song instantly and save significantly more money.

Also I'm pretty sure iTunes strikes a deal with the artist when they put their songs up for sale on their store. Meaning the artist doesn't lose anything from people purchasing their tracks on iTunes.

They're a tertiary middleman that robs artists and encourages buying only one song from an album, which is detrimental to art, and cuts even further into the earnings of musicians.

If you're going to pay for music, buy CDs.

Are you implying something here by chance?

Yeah, and based on my experience niggers are nasty, smelly, welfare monkeys, but if I say that then I'm a bigot.

They're pretty catchy. Too bad Naruto's best opening isn't on iTunes.
