Oh god... Defining value, are we?

Can't tell if reference to Smith, or economics in general.

The Flood / Yes, another book thread

What books are you reading at the moment.

I'm on Economics for Dummies, Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations and Milton Friedman's Capitalism and Freedom.

Stuffed is shit.

I like my crusts thin, and preferably crispy.

You're a conservative. You seem to love Reagan.

Why?

I sort of like Reagan, but he really wasn't great. He was a moderate by most standards.

I don't see what's wrong with that logic. Don't give a fuck? Then stay the fuck away. If you're not adding to the thread, don't bother. No one cares about some random person not caring, it only impedes discussion and no one gets happier by it.
You wouldn't be able to determine the level of care if they simply didn't post in the thread. Not every thread, which a taken individual finds pointless, is commented in. It's only those we seem to breach the lowest level of decency or worth expected.

People who try to tell me I shouldn't be laughing at a certain topic because it can never be funny.

No, no. Fuck you.

Do you support Sealand becoming a member of the EU?
No. I don't support any new countries becoming a member of the EU, let alone a heathen, breakaway micronation in the North Sea.
Do you think Britbongstan should incorporate Sealand into Her Majesty's royal kingdom if Scotland decides to leave?
I think our great Union should incorporate Sealand forcibly, regardless of Scotland's situation.

Whats your stance on the political affairs in Djibouti?
The president was elected in 2005 by 100% of the votes.

I make fun of 9/11 in the same way I occasionally make fun of 7/7.

9/11 was an international, as well as national, tragedy there's no doubt. People are all too quick to blame the west for the actions of divinely-motivated narcissists. Islamism is a form of fascism, and I refuse to surrender to that which would take away my basic liberties and rights, either externally or internally.

However, the best weapon against such totalitarianism is, and always will be, laughter in the face of their absurdity.

Why are you an evil immoral godless atheist
Because, even if God did exist, I probably wouldn't find Him worthy of worship anyway.

Then again, I'm partial to a sort of Deism from time to time.

Completely agree with the OP.

When the lack of caring about the topic reaches some sort of apex, it's usually usurped by a desire to point out the utter pointlessness/stupidity of the thread.

The Flood / Re: Venting thread
« on: September 11, 2014, 07:33:54 AM »
I underestimated the amount of work necessary for college. As well as the education system having external problems, I got complacent. I barely scraped an A in politics and was five marks off an A in history. Worst part is I was five marks of a C in philosophy.

Luckily, politics is easier this year and the tendency for history students is to double their marks with leeway about 12 marks either way. With a paper re-mark and subsequent retake, I should be able to end up with AAB, which will get me into a Russell Group university.

My vent? I don't think I have the motivation to actually do the work necessary, although I'm off to a good start.

« on: September 10, 2014, 04:58:08 PM »
So I was having my driving lesson earlier today, I was going down a moderately busy road and we came across a girl on a horse who was being spooked by the passing cars. My driving instructor was of the opinion that its time has passed, and we should no longer allow horses on public roads.

Spoiler
It wasn't as bad, however, as two parents walking along the side of a main road without a sidewalk with their baby in a pram and their dog.

Oh, it was just an accident? I thought someone stabbed you in the gut or something on purpose.
No, thank God.

Didn't get fuck all for my ruined shirt, though.
