Really? Huh.
really? So what WOULD be a good reason to have your name changed? Do you think people shouldn't EVER be able to change their name legally? This seems like a good enough reason to me.
I find the argument that the judge is making to be offensive. Basically he's saying that what our name is DOES define us (for cultural reasons), and we should just live with that. He's saying that to change your name would be to deny who you really are. What crap.
Really? This actually happened?
really? Seems there are others here adding to the discussion. But it's getting old. Who cares? That's my only question. And why is this going on and on and on? This is only one site, very narrow focus, not very exciting.
Really? Would everyone agree with you on that? Would Ulrich? Would the Artist's Coalition Against Privacy agree with you? Every single member? Any page with links on it can be argued to be a links page. Lines are being drawn, and with the courts and legislators getting involved, 'Netiquette' could someday soon become legislation. Do you like the direction this is going? Cuz I don't.
Really? Gingrich lied under oath in a sexual harassment suit? Geez, why didn't that make any headlines?

Really? Why was that ballot box filled with supplies? Where did the ballots that were supposed to be in that box go, if they were replaced with supplies? I find it highly questionable that a ballot box would be used for anything other than ballots. This does have a stink of conspiracy to it.
really? I bought Metafiltersucks.com. As a preventive measure, I had to buy Meatfillersucks.com and Metafiltersuckssucks.com too. I plan to cultivate emnity, and sell the domains to the rightful brandname owners for a high price.
Really? You can't think science is important without buying into everything scientists want?

really? We know that vikings hit north america, and some even think chinese ships made it to the west coast. Could be. Doesn't mean the Rune stone is genuine...if it had been in the field of someone who wasn't obviously of Viking decent--Olaf?--i might be more inclined to believe it. The 19th century was notorious for archaelogical fraud. Stones, manuscripts, golden metal plates, skeletons, fossils, giants....
Really?
really? Is it going to stop anyone here doing a weblog? Is it going to make any of mine any more obscure than they already are? I don't think so. It's just another technology. Like business people discovering spreadsheets.
Really? Oh. Well, that's what I get for commenting on a game I never finished. <sigh>.

REALLY?! Maybe they should have written:
Really? Iraq has needed urgent medical and infrastructural aid for 10 years but the US, UK and EU continue to prevent voluntary aid agencies from helping Iraq. This approach hurts civilians and no-one else.
really? I wonder why.
Really? That is not what I think of when I think of pity. It does not convey the beautiful part.
Really? You think gullible? How do you figure?
Really? CITR isn't exactly Moby Dick as far as that goes. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, and a duck in winter is just a duck in winter. CITR should be studied more for its character development, voice and local color.
Really? It seems like the artists from there all started out sort of just messing around on their computers, and ended up finding a talent and making a wad of cash while they were at it. Some of them are now starting to get record deals and coming out with CDs. If you asked me months ago whether I thought an artist could gain any real recognition through online broadcasting alone, I wouldn't have believed it.
Really? Hmmm, and I thought most rational people held the notion of reducing the number of people in prison...

Really? Me and most of my friends use cash almost exclusively, even for $100-$200 purchases. I didn't think anybody used the pay-at-the-pump thing.
Really? I see one (or two, max) on every road construction crew here in Michigan. They're the ones waving the flags. Never see any actually digging or driving the equipment. I just assumed that that indicated a quota.
Really? Damn. I always hoped I was more Buddy Rich-esque.
Really? So a kid praying silently in a bathroom stall before a big test shouldn't be allowed to do so?
really? Has anyone considered talking to some teens instead if just Viewing With Alarm about all this? I'm not saying your concerns are unfounded (I have an 8-year-old and a 5-year-old and my reaction was exactly the same as Beth's), just that I wonder whether teens might have more sense that they're being given credit for here. In Pynchonian terms, the Counterforce.
really? I hadn't heard of The Man Without Qualities, but Joyce is one of the more famous "serious" writers of the 20th century. John Huston (The Maltese Falcoln, The Man Who Would Be King) made a halfway decent adaption of his short story "The Dead".
really?). Dubya needs a similarly non-stick nick. Any ideas?
Really? On the first three examples, I could see the plaintext version for just a split-second before it snapped into fancy-CSS version, but on the Box Lesson you linked to, the whole page was loaded and I had time to scroll all the way down to the bottom and back up slowly and decide that nothing was going to render beyond plain text when suddenly it snapped into place.
Really? Find me an "Internet Appliance" I can sit down and write silly little programs on. Or one that I can choose which email program I want. One that I can replace the operating system on. Find me one of these little devices that'll let me do HTML editing, FTP uploads, SSH connections, Usenet browsing, MUCK and IRC chatting. One that'll let me sync my Visor, including Pocket Quicken.

For the record, I really, really, really hate those "trick banners". They should call them "one-trick banners".

really?) will blow over, as does every half-baked recycling of the latest Big Thing. Limp Bizkit is just the logical dumbed-down extension of Rage Against the Machine and its ilk. Just like when grunge started beautifully, and we ended up with fucking Bush and Seven Mary Three and oh God just kill me now.
Really? Thanks for the stunning insight.
really? why school then? to learn them some sense of responsibility? to ease them into the stress of the world? again, debatable.
really?
really? i mean, isn't access to affordable health care more important than the ability to travel abroad. castro's cuba oppresses its people and denies them some basic human rights, but give credit where credit is due. the cuban government assures access to health care better than the US.
Really? Bad memory! Bad! Well, it's an excuse to re-read the book.
really? I can only think of Serbia and Rwanda as examples of when I heard the Commission say or do anything, and even then, nothing happened: people still got killed, and no one cared. Face it, the world need to realize (if it doesn't already) that American in general, and conservatives in particular, are either indifferent, or hostile, to the UN. They couldn't care less about losing a seat on the Human Rights Commission.

Really? While Sweden abolished slavery in 1335 (which is really saying something, when you come down to it), the guild system wasn't abolished until 1846. And, it was such a constraint on trade that it was the same as slavery (including the beatings) but without the actual ownership question. In short, it was a legal trick to allow the benefits of slavery while still being able to decry it in principle.

Really? I guess I'm in the minority then. I go into the real world to escape the mundane bullshit found on the internet.
Really? Can you give me some proof?"
really? Why would someone be so desperate to imagine themselves as a central player in a tragic situation? If you were going to create someone who was brave and nobel in the face of death, it would have been hard to to do better than this. Back when the first Kaycee thread was posted here, Matt said something about how he might no be able to be as brave as Kaycee if he were in her situation, and that always stuck with me. If we had never found out, might we not judge those we encounter in real life (just a bit) as not being able to measure up to Kaycee's constant bravery and cheerfulness?

Initial findings? Other than actual personal sites and blogs, most seem to be owned by porn actresses and real estate agents, the only really famous person being Cindy Crawford. Most names are owned by companies trying to find a human face, or domain companies like net identity (who seem to own many, many of them - and you try looking at that initial screen a hundred times in a day).

Really? And how do you know something is evil? Do you know it when you see it? What if I disagree with you? I suppose I'm wrong.

Really? My only concern is animals getting euthanized as a result of hype and articles like the one above. And the linked web site basically says the same thing, even while saying there is a breed called the "pit bull," which many don't agree with. There was a game going on here? No one told me.
Really? Well, chalk up another victory for talking out of my ass. So why did a whole ton of my leftie friends use this term around eight years ago?

Really? That is cool. I guess you learn something every day. Anyway, back to Nefertiti, that is really crazy that she would be called the Elder Lady when her estimated age was only 29. I could be sitting some fire telling stories right now instead of working like a sucker. What was the average lifespan in ancient Egypt?
Also, is it me or did the article fail to present much evidence that the mummy was specifically Nefertiti and not just possibly Nefertiti? Like, how do they know? Could they ever really know for sure?

Your average American knows about as much about US atrocities in the Philippines during the American Occupation as the average Japanese knows about the Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere.And then there's the wondrous thing formerly known as the School of the Americas.I really think that the Philippines had little to do with it.No shit, Sherlock. I never said I did either -- anyone who thinks the US Government makes decisions based on anything other than self-interest (like, say, concern for the well-being of others) is naive.This statement is a crutch for anyone attempting to make an invalid pint. It is illogical and therefore invalid.An invalid pint? When did we start talking about Guinness?

Really? Couldn't charging a group of notoriously volatile Carbineri and chucking a metal cylinder at them be construed as suicide? I think we should put this guy in for a darwin award.
Really? I'm in Italy and I wasn't aware of this. It could be me, but do you have reliable sources? Just to make sure... Carabinieri are often joked upon for not being brilliant, but since they are part of the military they probably 'behave' more than the police does.

really? You really think that out of the goodness of their hearts they're just going to go out and give discounts to people that provide them information? Why would they do this when they would make more money by keeping the status quo and not offering to give discounts for information? Obviously, they would want to make it up somewhere else. It may start out as discounts for those that provide the information, but to make up for these discounts, everybody else's premiums will incrementally increase. I can't believe people think that insurance companies are going to voluntarily take a cut in income just to be "fair" to those who don't speed, etc.

really? will people just run out and buy whole new computers because of this? windows 95 was different: the pentium chip was quite a bit faster than some of the older computers people had, relatively speaking. most of the demands of common programs today, however, need nowhere near the advertised clockspeeds of these new pentium chips, and i think most consumers will be cheap enough not to care.

Really? He always had such nice things to say about you.
really? because i thought the issue was that Bush has left this country with no means of recovering from an upcoming recession and doesn't seem the slight bit bothered. Oh yeah, and that he refuses to account for spending on upcoming initiatives. oh yeah, and that the funds he does plan to dip into is Social Security, which we wouldn't have to touch if we hadn't lost our surplus on a tax break giveaway.
Really? All I saw here was the same old capitalist/socialist wankery that comes up every time economics gets discussed on MeFi. Not a word about how it relates to social support systems until someone asks about them, just bashing CEOs for raising their own salaries. And if I wanted platitudes, I'd have asked for them.

Really? Are 99% of all women of such mass that sagging to that extent is actually a problem? I know I'm not. It's definitely one of the (admittedly few) benefits of not having large breasts, I go braless pretty much whenever I want, and the ones I do wear are hardly constrictive. Never wore a sports bra when I ran cross-country, and nothing bounces around. Sad for the boys, but just fine by me.
really? I actually didn't realize that. Do you have a link with statistics? Not that I don't believe you, I just would like to see the statistics.
Really? Damn. We can't have that! Later Nader!
Really? Wow. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you're stretching the point a bit, because on the face of it, that's an incredible statement. Do you really believe that political freedom equals lack of duty? I can think of plenty of duties that I have as a citizen, including the duty to uphold the laws of the place I live, the duty to contribute meaningfully to my community, etc. I actually would love to hear about your decision, Cracker, including your religious/ethical system that simultaneously doesn't let you kill others while also maintaining that we have no duties in a 'free country.' (By the way, just so you don't miss my point, I do respect your decision to be an objector.)
Really? Please point out a time to me when "America" has plowed into civilian buildings during times of peace, murdering possibly 10s of thousands of innocent people, just to make a point, then consequentially all of us, the citizens of your demonized "America" danced wildly in the streets, praising God for the victory?

"Friends in Just 15 Minutes a Day." Thank you, Mr. Carnegie. I'm going to make collages for all of *my* friends today. Oh happy happy joy joy! I can't wait for the inevitable part two when we find out about the importance of family. And part three, pets.

Ha-ha-ha... [lots of wailing]

Really? Sure this isn't one of those times where media outlets work their sources as hard as they can, to sqeeze out as many leaks as possible? One of Mark Kingwell's arguments in What Sept. 11 was not about is that "In times of crisis, debate gets quickly polarized and nuance, not truth, is the very first casualty of war." Metafilter, among other community-created-content sites, promises is gathering of information that people might not otherwise see in the mainstream press. And I think it largely delivers on that promise.

really? if we wanted to take out afghans civilians, it would be a lot easier than what we're doing now, and at significantly less cost and effort to ourselves.
show me one iota of evidence that indicates that the intent of bombing afghanistan is to terrorize civilians. are you so naive that you really think a military operation of this scope can be carried out without the risk of a single civilian death?

That's really wrong: most cashiers have shortages taken out of their pay.
Really? I worked in retail for 10 years and never saw that happen, probably because it's illegal to do so.
Really? Any evidence to back that up? I think they're a bunch of lazy, spoiled bastards. Instead of throwing money at schools without strings attached, we need to pay teachers what they would receive in the private sector and give them an incentive to do their jobs. American parents need to also start shouldering more of the blame, these behaviors start at home...

Really? What happens if you take Bill Clinton and George Clooney out of the sample pool?
Really? I think you overestimate both him and his appeal. My impression was that informed opinion holds that he was just another cold warrior, albeit a handsome and personally popular one. And I also think you overstate the idealism of his project, and the magnitude of the space program, if that's what you mean by "the single largest project in the history of mankind."

Really? There's a surprise. I wouldn't worry about more of this happening. A couple of nutjobs like this guy and John Walker does not a crisis make. In WW2 we had a whole cabal of American Nazis(they were called the Bund, for the uninitiated) and everything still worked out ok. I wouldn't lose sleep over a couple of suicidal morons.

Focusing on the group rather than the actual people who commit acts of violence, while a useful technique if you're interested in expedient mass-market media appeal, is really just intellectual laziness.

really? I assume that's why the UK doesn't have mandatory service, yet has a well-sized army, and the best elite forces in the world? Perhaps you meant smaller European countries? And even so, Switzerland is always an exception.. they're a neutral country, and have been free of conflict for *hundreds* of years.
i haven't seen blackhawk yet...but i have read a lot of excerpts and interviews from the book, etc... My impression was that it doesn't portray the US troops as victims so much as it just presents the chaotic events of a really fucked up operation. The somalis did their job, the americans tried to do theirs, story presented without the usual amount of moral posturing.
really? from their point of view? Big deal. From the accounts i read, the somalis near the UN base cheered the returning troops. Wacky place. Did the movie represent them fairly?

Really? Every digicam I've owned (three) has had adjustable compression, and two of them can save uncompressed images. The newest one actually can save raw CCD data, before any in-camera sharpening or interpolation is applied.
The biggest problem with digital cameras is that at the resolution of the CCD, two thirds of the data in the image is made up, because each camera pixel captures only one primary color of light. They could do like video cameras and add a second and even third CCD, but that would make the cameras require even more light than they need now. It's really hard to make fast, sharp lenses as small as digicam buyers demand.

really? In the context of the article and this thread its already been established that we're dealing with the more extreme or "hard" brand of atheism. Agnosticism has also been fairly established too. Sorry, but I'd rather not derail this into a pedantic investigtion into the etymology of every term. We're pretty far off the rail as it is.

really? source for this?I don't know if the latter was an oblique reference to the former, but I wanted to point out that an assertion of the unstated thought patterns of policymakers, unlike the assertion that an actual public statement was made, is not likely to be confirmed by any source. Thus, it's kind of pointless to ask for a source for it; it's basically just an opinion. Unless that was the point of asking?

Really? I'm not sure which argument you're referring to, so here's a refutation of both:
The "we know it's a scheme" argument- sorry, I just don't buy into that. If people really knew, then it wouldn't happen. The odds are so incredibly stacked against you beyond the first couple tiers, and the people who tend to buy into these things don't understand that math.

Really? I've always thought just the opposite. Before Laurel Wellman left to write boring columns for the Chronicle, "Dog Bites" was probably the only thing worth reading in the SF Weekly. Now it's just a sensationalistic seventy-two page Inside Edition cover story with the kind of diacritical local columnists you find in just about any New Times outlet. The Guardian has definitely slipped a bit lately. But they still have Annalee Newitz writing and editing there. So it's not entirely bad.

With all due respect, have you ever been to China (and I'm not talking tourist) and experienced this sheer evil? The American public freely eats up a lot of bullshit that the media gets from the White House and the history books (written by, duh, Americans) without giving it a second thought. Spend a month in China and then tell me that China is sheer evil. You don't know what really goes on in China unless you live in it or near it.
Really? "The Space Race is Over" is one of my favortie songs, precisely because it wasn't what I expected. I assumed from the title that it would be a tirade against spending on space projects; instead I got a wistful song about boyhood dreams. I think William Bloke, with an exception or two, is a terrific disc. Then again, I even like Bloke on Bloke.

really? Windbag, at the very least, is what you are. 9/11 is a completely different animal than the Cold War. When the potential for global destruction subsided after the Berlin Wall came down, every US strategist knew that the next rivalry was up for grabs. China, the EU, India, the Middle East...all were possibly competitors. Now, as we've seen, our greatest threat is not a hegemon, but a coward with an endless supply of drones ready to destroy the US for the sake of Allah and Muslims. Am I dramatizing? Slightly, but just as the Soviet Union was not hype, neither is the threat of terrorists, posing as messengers of God.
Really? I thought it was rather reassuring.

Really? You know this? Frankly, to be fair these are exactly the kind of statements that should be avoided.

Yes, I seem to remember when they were shot to the moon from a giant cannon that they harvested quite a lot of green cheese. These folk are insane, masquerading as Christian nutjobs.

I must have been confused about that. And besides, I'm sure that all this misbehavior, if it did once occur, is well in the past. It's not like companies like Citibank are buying the nation's worst predatory lender because they think it's a great business. It's not like they're paying $200 million dollar fines to atone for red-lining and discriminatory lending. It's not like American Express still engages in forms of employment discrimination. Right?

Indeed it is, but the question that really needs to be asked is if the threat of smallpox is being overstated. The mere mention of the word has been enough to nudge every news outlet on television to do a big piece on smallpox preparations, not to mention spur local efforts, the likes of which are being staffed by praiseworthy folks like bradth27.

Really? Evidence? The talk about long-ago measures with the Kurds, alluded to as, "Using weapons of mass destruction against his own people." That's, if anything, simply a "by the way" thing. It has never been an overwhelming factor and I doubt many people would disagree here. I never heard it mentioned by war-with-Iraq advocates on metafilter as a good enough reason for "regime change" either, at least not initially. Your editorial is from a Hitchens-like warmongering idealist too, not from anyone within the administration. The thread linking all these types is that they want regime change to spur regime change in Saudi Arabia, etc. There has been no indication that the Bush administration itself is thinking along the same liberal/idealist lines, at all. And until you have some indication that those closest to Bush agree with such sentiments, I'd be quiet about "reading minds" yourself. All you have to go on is the public record.

Even if I were a mysogonistic pervert, I really don't think I'd even take the joy in hate-humping her. She's a media-slut, plain and simple. She'll say and act how she feels will get her on the O'Reilly Factor even more and have more people writing into The Nation talking shit about her.
Really? He doesn't look a day over 160.
Really? I'm in the U.S. and I thought the general consensus was that Consumer Reports is utterly clueless on many of the things they report on, especially computers.
Really? Yawn!
Really? Wow. And I am sure there are just tons of Mac users wanting an overpriced dial up ISP with proprietary software. Yep.
Really? I never bought it for a moment.
Really? I find his site to be the most entertaining homepage I have ever visited. I would never want to meet him, but I'm certainly fascinated by him. And Buffalo 66 is on my top ten list. What a fantastic movie. Man. I'm going to watch it when I get home.

Really? I know plenty of women who understand. Have you ever seen what straight people do to gay guys? Alienation from family, friends, work, culture. Women can be "gay" without really being gay and get away with it she is much more flexible in her sexuality as the article says. A guy doesn't have that freedom.

Really?
really? Gosh, well, "I did not have sex with that woman" is only 8 words. Dang, and you say an impeachment proceeding came out of it? I guess that means we'll impeach Bush twice on this one lie alone. And after that we'll still have 19 lies to get through, and nobody's even done the word count on those.
Really? Let's see:
Really? You think wackybrit might be British? Damn you're good. Missing the point is my favourite (sic) part of the theatre (sic) that is Metafilter. His superior attitude is understandable now that I know he's a brit.
Really? I've heard many a bibliophile complain about the lack of good (used) bookstores in New York.
Really? Should I gather a list of dog mauling links for you?
really? I could walk into a grocery in England and buy these?!

Really? I thought Bush Sr. sent them, and Clinton pulled them out. Is this that revisionist history I keep hearing about?
really? Was it to save Muslim lives? Well, the partition claimed quite a few of them, not to mention the several wars since and the inter-Muslim killings within Pakistan. All the anti-Muslim pogroms in India don't add up to that. Creating a state on religious grounds creates a slippery slope through which the fundies can take over (also see Israel, Iran).
Really?

Really? I hadn't heard. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
Really? I know you won't want to hear this, but here goes: spend less. It's really quite simple. Cut wasteful programs instead of just "harping" about it.

However, we just "really don't care" about some things.
Really? So sad. When I was saving to go to Europe back in 1983 I kept my cash in a little plastic container in thousand dollar bills. Those were sweet. They smelt better than regular money, too.

really? I swear in at least one of the episodes Tako makes a snide comment about AB.
Really? Do you have something to back that up with?

Really? That this action movie star, whose sole credentials for being elected governor of (what is it? the 5th largest economy in the world or something on that order?) California are apparently that he looks good on camera, this fucking meathead, this appalling example of how corrupt and ineffective America's sham democracy has become... that it takes 15 women (so far) publicly declaring that he has groped them to even slow his seemingly inexorable roll towards public office. That he would get this far without being laughed off the podium is, I hope, deeply embarrassing to anyone left over there who cares.
Really? Most of the history books I've read of the period characterize the relation between the Palestinians and Zionists as quite peaceful prior to the 1920's, though I'm sure there were isolated incidents. I sure don't remember any wars from that period though (unless you're referring to WW1); perhaps you could point me to some documentation of that?

Really? You guys are tough. I agree that it could have been better written and some of the assertitions are bizarre, but I still found it interesting and enjoyable. Then again, I've been reading the series a bit at a time for the past few weeks as new parts were put online.
Really? I'd say it's more of the bishops and those under the Pope that are pushing for it. Those with more PR on their mind. The Pope is relatively conservative, so I'm not sure if he'd be the one pushing this forward so quickly.

Really? I don't think anyone here disputes that in the particular case referred to in the FPP, actionable tax fraud occurred and should be punished. In that sense, yes, the story is about tax fraud. Our discussion, however, is about the underlying issue--reparations.
really? Unless they're sending down reports from the summit, or, in this case, unless Wake is actually integrating his weblog with his radio show in anything other than a superficial, "I'll read out my fiction on radio" fashion.

Really? The Swedish voted "No" and they may not be the last...

Really? I guess as an action movie it was ok but I still prefer John Woo's Hong kong stuff like Hard-boiled. As a thinking mans film its allegories are too obvious to inspire contemplation.
As a sci-fi film, well, I was dissapointed in it, thinking that if our world really was a Matrix, how much cooler would it be if for "real" we were some sort of strange aliens inhabiting a different kind of universe, or all pieces of a large unified mind that had been fragmented into smaller pieces etc..
Really? It seems like a lot longer...)
REALLY?? Cuz I see them blowing up buildings and starting wars.
really? I think it's better that parents take the time to name their children after something they like or find interesting rather than whether or not it "goes well" with the last name. It shows a little more creativity and I think most would feel somewhat unique having an uncommon name, even if they never admit to their folks. As for naming kids after corporate names, well, aren't most corporations named after, um, people?

Really? The anti-drunk driving campaign has been going on for about 2 decades, I'd say, and I'd be willing to bet that the same energy applied to reducing pollution would have saved many more lives. Best to do both though.

as for your point if outside terrorism is not a threat to the US mainland, (Good Luck) then either of the wars is really unwarrented, isn't it?
Really? I look at the woman in the picture and I see a mass murderer of the very worst sort. She killed 19 innocent people. People she didn't know, people who were going about their normal daily business, people who had jobs and kids and a future. A sea of blood, with her floating in it.
Really? I unabashedly love it (and unless you're about 10 or 15, I'm not your parents' age). Some episodes are better than others, of course (and most of the final season where they jumped the shark to move to Connecticut is pretty meh), and the sexism of the period can inspire the gnashing of teeth (I used to have a t-shirt that said "I love Lucy but Ricky is a fucking pig"), but I think it's still frequently hysterical and can't really be underestimated in terms of its influence. Lucille Ball was much more than simply a last-gasp vaudeville comedian -- her physicality and comic delivery were excellent and really broadened the boundaries for women in comedy, and Desi Arnaz developed the 3-camera method of filming live before an audience, which is still the sitcom standard today.

Call the firemarshall and somehow have her declared insane and institutionalized? She probably needs it, but I'm not sure if it's really possible for him to do that. She's still her own solvent person, and she's obviously not going to go to a therapist because, as a crazy person, she doesn't think she's crazy.

Really? I know it isn't in the Randian script, but a bit of old-fashioned Keynesian public works pump-priming would have been more stimulative than lining the pockets of the wealthy -- in spite of the insinuation that we all rely on those specially blessed Businesspeople to create jobs, so they deserve big tax cuts.
Really? I get the distinct impression that you prefer my early demise. Perhaps that's me, though. Here I though breathing was necessary.
Really? Maybe I'm just wired differently, but as bad as the stories sounded, some part of me didn't know if it was for real, and if so I could imagine how terrible a plight they must have been in to do it.

Really? Let's talk Bosnia. Let's talk all the current UN Peacekeeping operations, and the levels of hostility and violence they encounter or engender. I think it's safe to say what i said.
Really? Is that right? I thought Iraq had, at least for the region, a fairly high standard of living. They certainly had plenty of cars driving round Bagdahd on the news. I'm not dismissing your claim (or apologising for the terrible act on the video), just think the idea that Iraq was some backwards nation may be incorrect (of course, it is now, we saw to that)
I can't speak for ilsa, but my interpretation of her statement was that if you're really concerned about the prevalence of abortion, it makes sense to address the root causes of demand for abortion, rather than leave those causes unchecked and relying on preventive legislation.
Really? Do you oppose the invasion and subsequent occupation of Iraq? I'm sure a few innocent children died as a result. How about the idea of "just war" in general? You might think that's a cheap shot - I do, to a certain degree - but most moral decisions of any significance aren't as clear-cut and easy as you seem to think. I can think of plenty of hypotheticals in which the "moral" decision of most people would result in the deaths of innocent children.
really? If the basis of the right to an abortion is the right to control one's own body, what alternative is there?

I'm not sure why you claim that what you are saying disagrees what I am saying. You say it is "crystal clear", but then go on to show up muddy it really is. You perfectly illustrate all the complex facets of this issue and how those facets can be interpreted differently by different people. Again, hence the Pro-Choice logic of allowing the woman involved make her choice according to her beliefs and the situation she finds herself in.
Really? OK, fair enough .... can you provide a link to a news story on a reputable news site confirming this? 'cos as of RIGHT NOW I'd expect to see a story confirming their fakeness splashed right across the BBC News website. So far, no joy. The main story is the US Armed Forces minister saying they're "appalling" IF they're genuine. So it would appear the UK government aren't quite as up to date as you are.

How is the PRC going to sustain any kind of invasion across the Strait with no blue-water navy worth the name, no amphibious-assault or strategic sealift capability, and an air force that might last all of a week against the ROC air defenses? Frickin' swim over and attack with hoes and pitchforks? And assuming that enough of their guys made across to throw any kind of scare into the ROC, how are they supposed to be supplied and reinforced?

No, not really. Outside of a few expensive urban markets, you can live just fine on $27K/year. You probably won't be doing lots of saving, and you won't be buying a new SUV every 3 years, but you can live just fine.
Really? I've never gotten squat for going to vote (other than the tingly feeling that I hope is civic pride). Stupid Tennessee polling places. ::shakes fist::
really? (I find it amusing that some people are more than willing to entertain the idea that Israel -- or even the U.S. itself -- had advance knowledge of the attacks, but go apoplectic at the mere speculation that Saddam Hussein might have been aware).

Really? Not for me it doesn't.
What if there was an earthquake, say above 8.0, affecting much of the west coast, on November 1. Homes destroyed, power out, thousands dead, hundreds of thousands hurt, really, really bad. Would we pospone the election for the rest of the country?
Would a terrorist attack of similar magnitude to 9/11 really change things any more than such a massive earthquake? I don't see it.
really?
really?! So, why is it that complaints about politicians run 100-2 against Republicans? How about the fact that prior to running for the Presidency, Kerry was more Hawkish on Iraq than President Bush (as I am)? Clearly, the Hypocracy Bullshit Meter deflects in one direction here on Metafilter, and that direction ain't a gauche.
Really? Documented where?
Really? They all "chose" to be less responsible this generation, just for the hell of it? People new to American-like cultures suddenly become fatter in one generation because they "choose" to be less responsible? Wouldn't it make more sense to say, well people are basically the same, so there must be some societal issue? There are so many to choose from: corn subsudies, fast food, suburban sprawl, the increase in portions served at restaurants, etc. The government and the corporate world actively -- VERY actively -- contribute to the weight gain in the US. Where is their fucking personal responsibility?
really? Non-partisan?
REALLY? Two embassy bombings in Africa. The Cole, Two World Trade Center Bombings, plus "Westerner" attacks in Indonesia, plus a Millenium attempt, plus a few more that probably slip my mind for the moment. Not to mention all the Palestinian shit. And Libyian stuff--ALL Islamic (or pseudo Islamic).
really? How stunning. This guy means we still need tanks and planes?
really, wow. stunning. Like the germans in 1939-1940. Right? All that high tech armor and tactics and training can win battles.
Really? How do you know? Actually the "testimonials" are sort of strange (but they could just be silly things people wrote in). If I've participated in spreading around a mean joke, I'd like to delete this post.
Really? I thought it was The Corporation and the political influence it buys.
Really? What truth did Bush tell about the reasons to go to war?
really? that's an interesting statement considering my mother's once-rural, forested land is now nothing but the cul-de-sac end to a bunch of hideous subdivisions. she's had to chase 'hunters' out of her own YARD (rule is 500 feet away from a house, but she's not down with trespassers or people killing things on her land) more times than she can count because many deer regard the last patch of trees (i.e. her land) as sanctuary.
really? If this guy had robbed a bank and admitted to a therapist he went to the bank thinking about doing it again, this conversation wouldn't be happening. I understand it's a compulsion and it involves kids, but arresting someone for impure thoughts skeeves me out.
Really? Then why does it take almost twice as many clicks as it did before to get to basic information like an album review for a particular artist? By what standard of browsing does that count as a freaking improvement?
Really? Oh the hyperbole!
really?
really?
Really? Sucks for Britain. I guess they haven't learned that terrorism never declares war either. Hey, if you've got a link, toss it this way -- I can only find the "British Muslims threatened with treason charges" articles from a couple years back, nothing on the actual court rulings.
Really? Frightening?? Wow.
really?
really? Does anybody but this guy really believe that the issue is with modesty?
Really?
really? Can you point me to a non-activist news source reporting this news? Actually, I'd just as easily assume a story planted by an administration that wants to build jusitificatoin for invasion. You know, because enough people haven't died yet.
really? Yeah, and that's the whole other thing. I couldn't find a non-activist or non-blog report of this anywhere yet. I didn't go nuts looking, but I did google it and I haven't found anything to corroborate this story except other blogs and activist sites.
Really? Funny how these atypical cases keep popping up. Or how about the Canadian journalist who was apparently murdered in prison by accident? Thanks, you've set my mind at ease.
Really? Darn! What if... Sigh. OK.
really? Growth is way up since the taxes started taking effect. Now, you they may (or may not) result in structural budget deficits, but you didn't write that. Which suggests you're just another I hate Bush liberal robot with no cranial matter.

really? What should the response be? "Yes, he picked up some poor black baby, but reminded the baby's mom to get a job, so there he was compassionate and conservative."
You reap what you sow. Alienate all dissenters, alienate all mildly republican posters by calling their president names every chance you get and expect trolls and silence. It's quite simple, really.
Really? If so, then the terrorists HAVE truly won.
Really? What indications? Everything I've seen says it's rebels from the area.
Really? I thought “most of us would agree” that the law ought to be society’s protection against crime.
really? So you lie to everyone all the time? You do whatever it takes, including lying about your opponents to try to remain in power? So you believe in cutting veteran's benefits, and increasing the cost of Medicare, and privatizing SS? (and so on....)
really? he did? I thought Marc Ribot, Keith Richards, and Waits himself?
really?
Really? I sure as heck can.
Really?
Really? I would think people who only have cells would be more likely to be younger & live in urban areas. Of course American politicians care fuck-all about the young & urban, though I can't help but wonder if their opinions were reflected in polls . . . (and yes, if they voted more).
really? What line of work, or personal endeavor, are you in that you've seen "a ton" of vehicle collisions caused by people looking at roadside news crews? 'Cause I've been a paramedic/fire fighter for over 17 years, and have run literally thousands of vehicle accidents, and I've NEVER responded to one that was caused by a news crew at the side of the road.
Really? No, not really.
Really? And are gay marriages getting the green light when Kerry wins, just like the flyer says?
Really? Let's do the math.
Really? Because Bush is one justice away from winning that battle; meanwhile, women are shunned, ostracized, and forced to keep silent because of this "embarassment". Like being raped.
Really? Wow. Here I thought the short supply lines of the rebels is what did it. But don't let reality get in the way of your right-think.

really? Ya he had a couple high profile attacks against americans but he probably wouldn't even make my worst post war criminals top ten list. I'd think Papa and Baby Doc, Kim Jong Il, members of the Barre Regime, etc. etc. would come out way ahead of Osama by whatever metric you want to choose for biggest criminal except americans killed.
Really? There's competition for that title?
Really? People used this term regularly in 1945?
Really? Cuz I see it all the time, both expressed directly and through their behavior. How odd.
Really? I never really got that, my impression was that religion didn't typically give a crap about man. Dictionary definition for example: "belief in and reverence for a supernatural power or powers regarded as creator and governor of the universe." See, no concern for man. How can you want to better man when you're making him second best from the get-go. This is more looking at western religion though, eastern religion has some striking differences obviously. Secular humanism...now that's the good stuff.
Really? We invaded Iraq and threw people into Abu Gharib. That's a start, right?
Really? That doesn't sound right to me, but I wasn't old enough to vote in that particular election, so I could definitely be wrong. Either way, it's been a long, long time since we went Democrat!

Got that? Every stale, rancid, stagnant clich from your fingertips serves to keep the era of Arafat alive. Which I strongly suspect you actually want, because you really wouldn't know what to do with all that bottled-up hatred, should a new generation of Palestinian leaders emerge from this, wanting a lasting peace.

really? being a parent seems - in my experience of others - to change people from normal rational beings into pathological obsessives that will sacrifice anything if there's the slightest hint that it will be better for their kid. it seems to be the easiest sell in the book (way more effective than, for example "national security", and that's already proved its worth).
really? Well, up until some places started using computers to do voting, we used a pretty tried and true method of voting that inherently created a paper trail.

Really? I thought, visually, that was one of the best Pixar films yet (3d cartoon people have to be a bitch to animate/model. It's much easier to animate/model a space toy or a cowboy toy). I saw the Polar Express the other day...it's the first time, in a long time that I said "hey, the story was great but the visuals were horrific!"

Really? I loved the 2nd season of Justice League--some of the finest super-heroics ever to see page or screen--but gave up on JLU when the League got kid-ified at around the 3rd episode. It seemed a dumbing down. What's happening that makes you say it's headed in a Kingdom Come direction?

Really? It's definitely my least favourite of Moore's comics. The story just seemed really plain and a little trite. The action doesn't seem to fit a film. Most of the comic's action sequences were done in just a few frames. Also, I thought the artwork in V was just confusing. I couldn't differentiate between the characters half of the time, they all looked alike.
Really? Why should one's "happiness" depend on the esteem of others? That idea always struck me as too damn sheep-like.

Doesn't really bother me that much, and frankly, I like the art. Also amazes me how many times I've already seen this uproar elsewhere, when comparatively so many people seem to have no problem with human rights issues, and people suffering every day in places like Iraq.

I thought it was clear as day to many, even at the time that the drumbeat was reaching a fever pitch and Colin Powell was playacting at the UN, that there was no good evidence that there were weapons.

It's pretty sad that you didn't apologize for - or even acknowledge - that bit of inflammatory fiction, but it's become hilarious now, with people who aren't vegans telling people such as myself and Donald Watson that we don't understand what a vegan is - and especially using unimpeachable sources like Google "define:" and usenet game-playing groups to seal the deal.

Yes, really. Most schools, at least in my experience, can tell you what a grade in their particular school means. Indeed, at least out in my neck of the woods, schools are very concerned about stomping out grade inflation because most colleges can figure out if a school's grades are habitually inflated.
I believe you can buy your way to a better SAT score through prep courses. Of course, you can also buy your way into a school with higher standards, into a college with a beter reputation, etc. It is all part of the system that doesn't really reward intellignece so much as it rewards money. I guess I should be saying "the American education system is a scam."

Really? I thought that the Turkish Army invaded after the island's Greek government attempted to take over the entire island. Anyway, I don't see how that example or the Kurdish one is applicable, other than to insinuate that Turks are by nature genocidal (i.e. it was my belief that the Kurdish dispute was more related to land rights than racial or religious differences, just as in Cyprus).

Really? The guy had a penis? Never noticed that before either. Why? I was too busy averting my gaze in reaction to the tremendously disgusting bunghole that has scarred my retinas for life to notice the guy's penis.

Really? I must be suicidally irrational then. Why did I get my vasectomy? Because I have one son, who is autistic. Number one, he takes all of my time and energy to raise and will continue to do so most likely until the day I die, given that he may well never be able to live independently. Having another child would both rob my son of the time and attention he needs, and rob the new child of the kind of time and attention they deserve as well. I have seen it happen to other families with one autistic child and one "normal" child - nobody comes out ahead. Number two, all of the research points to autism having a strong genetic factor, meaning if I had another child (and particularly if that second child was also a boy), said child would be at high risk for being autistic as well. What rational person would knowingly set a child up for that kind of life?

My point was that you might be supporting the very companies you hate, inadvertantly, because they don't like to publicize all their sundry financial holdings.

Really? College educated internet access & PC owning modern world living folks? How do you afford to live?" The balance in the account wasn't to indicate wealth, although to be honest, I'm fabulously wealthy & attractive. It was to state that I wouldn't worry about being cash poor unless the sums being held were in the thousands. Hundreds even might worry me. $10? Who the fuck can't afford a hold on $10? And they're buying gasoline @ $2.50 a gallon? What do you do when it goes up by a nickel in your 15 gallon tanks??? How close to the bone are you people living? That's all I'm saying. The balance in my checking account isn't a money EARNER, EB, it's a money saver (see above re: fees from evil bank). I'd love to have that cash to spend, but if my balance ever drops below $1500, Citibank charges me $10/month, and if it gets below $1000, I believe by some obscure financial agreement I signed on to, they can come take one of my pugs away. Is that what you poor people want? For me to lose one of my beloved pugs???

And seriously, our country has plenty of domestic problems with extremist ideologies: why are we still not talking about analyzing the underlying causes of the Oklahoma City bombing, the anthrax attacks on democratic leadership and the press, or the numerous clinic bombings in recent history? The only difference is that suicide wasn't involved, so I guess those are somehow less selfish, less cowardly acts? Do you really believe that domestic terrorism doesn't have similar underlying motivations? Still, we as Americans seem to be in complete denial about our own ideological extremists and the threats they pose to our continuing national security. Why is that? Why does it seem more and more like our "War on Terror" is morphing into a "War on Islam"?

really? And what is strip searching blue haired old ladies, or four year olds, just to avoid the appearance of racial profiling? I call it political correctness run amok.
Really? I see an ad and think "Oh look. Someone's trying to sell me some fucking cigarettes. No, no...I don't think I need any IP telephony solutions...but thanks anyway, Cisco". Which, for the record, is no fantasy of mine. I suppose that when forced through such a literal lens you can indeed force me into dismantling my own point, however, I think You know as well as I that the core meaning of both ads and graffiti lie outside of strict visual literalism. Try as we might, we're unable to do away with intent. And while you might be able to argue otherwise; I do propose that the intent behind an ad is much less noble than the intent that motivates young Borf.
Really? There has been a lot of positive work done in the past 30 years to reduce global emmisions of carbon and other greenhouse gases.
Really? There has been a lot of positive work done in the past 30 years to reduce global emissions of carbon and other greenhouse gases
Such as? I don't really mean to be such a cynic but last time I checked the rate of Greenhouse gas emissions have yet to stop climbing, much less reaching a plateau, and much, much less declining which is what really needs to be happening.
Really? Because this question is the hinge for the whole issue, ultimately. People opposed to the conpletely wacky idea of bombing Mecca are suggesting that such a reprisal is likely only to radicalize Muslims. I have a strong suspicion that knocking down the door of "313 Saddam Street" and locking up insurgents or anyone else who might be floating around is likely to do the same, though on a smaller scale. The many-headed hydra is not threatened by the lopping off of a few.
really? Just apart from the sheer monstruous immorality of nuking any city, I can just point out at one precedent in history where an imperial power in the Middle East decided to deal with a bunch of violent religious zealots by destroying their most holy site. Nearly 2000 years later, Temple Mount is still a place of discord.
Really?
really? Why don't you go and outline to these people all that that nampy-pamby postmodernist reader-as-author relational interfaith drivel that has got christianity into such a terrible muddle these days. What about classic lines from the WORD OF GOD such as:

Really? Any proof? I wonder why Laurence Tribe thinks so highly of him, then?
Just looks like another Scalia apparatchik clown. I'm a white hetero man who has little need to petition the government for anything so this kulturkampf crap doesn't really affect me at all.
Really? I'd love to know which ones specifically? Seriously?....
Really? what line do you ride? The N/W and 1 trains were as crowded as ever.
really? :)
Really? Bad call.
Really? I uninstalled and then reinstalled from the Yahoo! link (just to see if there was a difference), and besides the little message upfront congratulating themselves and talking about the Flickr integration, my widgets are behaving exactly the same (including picture frame). Although, I do notice that now there's an extra tab in the picture frame config that allows me to enter a Flickr user/pass -- but it's not requiring it.
Really? There's no such thing as doing a bad job as president? Having backward and dangerous policies, squandering the public purse, wrecking the environment and making it hard for your countrymen to earn a living?
I guess anyone really can be president.

Really? Okay:
Really? What's going to happen?" Bush says, "Well, we're going to kill 140 million Muslims and one blonde with big tits." The guy exclaimed, "A blonde with big tits? Why kill a blonde with big tits?"
really? I suppose thats understandable if you spend your days reading Zmag or something, but, come on, compared to the mainstream of media its relatively fair minded. At least I have always thought so, but perhaps I shall remember to be a bit more critical next time I'm studying celebrity gossip on public transport.
Really? Demonstrate them false then. You honestly think that a naked man and a naked woman in public have the same risk of sexual assault? Of assault in general?
Further, you really think that the media portrays them in the same general way? Are you fresh off the boat?
Really? I am a graduate of a journalism school and I never had that requirement. Apparently the J-school at IU missed the memo. Here are the current distribution requirements for IU. In case you're wondering about the cultural studies requirement, these are the courses to fulfill that. You will note that nowhere in there is a required course in "feminism and queer studies."
really? do you suppose a drunk person realizes the potential risk of sleeping with a stranger? or how about someone on crystal meth? or horny and curious teenagers? to me it's not apples and oranges at all. it's government invasion of privacy, plain and simple.

Really? How is it nonsensical to talk about a genetic condition that causes over-active collagen production in a wound site, leading to pretty awful-looking (oh, but that's just my opinion) and ocassionally movement-limiting (hello, adhesions?) scar tissue? And that, unless people know they're at risk for it before undergoing a deep cut, there's really no way* to treat it effectively?
really? Same with piercing. Should I seek therapy because I pierced my nipple? (oh no! I put a hole in me. I must hate myself!)

Really? Andre the Giant suffered with lots of pain for most of his life. A human heart and joints between bones can only take so much weight and size before they fail.

Really? What do they sell, exactly? How many people do they employ? In what way are they anything like a multinational corporation?

really? The main concern for Palestinians at the moment is not the export market but their own people. I'm not an economist nor a business man so I won't get sucked into an argument over whether the palestinians would be better served with an export economy or by a self-sustainability economy, but considering the firm grip that Israel holds over anything that goes in and out of Gaza or the West Bank I think think it would be ludicrous for the Palestinians to put even more of the little autonomy they might yield at the mercy of the Israelis.
Really? You hadn't heard this yet?

Really? Say, that's a job I could really feel ok about.
Really? And I thought metafilter was about finding good links? I guess I should read the guidelines again. I missed the "saving the world" part.

Really? Isn't there a road up to the top of Pike's Peak? Presumably a cafeteria as well, no? And: 46 below ambient temp, or wind chill equivalent?
Really? I guess you don't get out much. Get informed.
really? Is anyone out there still stupid enough to think they did this for the public good? It's patently obvious that the commentor wanted to start something, and the commentor would have known the reaction information like this would provoke. They would have to have been stupider than they already appear to be to think it wouldn't result in some kind of vigilante action, so one can only assume they were deliberately trying to incite it. I can't see any other reason for releasing unconfirmed, unchecked personal information to the public live on TV before informing the police. It simply doesn't make sense.
Really? He's been in my shillfile with Horowitz for years.
Really? It's a new thing?
Really? I doubt you even know what my argument is. I'm not trying to be insulting when I say that, but my argument is quite simple, and it's not ridiculous at all. Anywhere but here, I doubt it would be the least bit controversial. All I'm saying is that the monetary cost of the war, no matter how high, is not a sufficient argument against the war. If it were, the legitimacy or validity of the war wouldn't matter one way or another - it could be a campaign to cleanse the world of tyranny or a way to stuff the pocketbooks of industrialists, and it wouldn't make any difference.
Really? Didn't feel a thing.

Really? i needed to be the 1000th metafilter member to say 'bush sucks'? That would have made a difference? Because I didn't I must think he's doing a swell job? Nice logic.
Really? What bothers me is the sad child's face as the mother breaks down.
Really??? You see no connection between his disconnected language, the way his administration (and others) refers to Americans as "refugees" and the way these, these Americans are being treated?

Really? Are you kidding me? They can do that? What else can they do?" But there was no real story on it, and I have not really heard about anything like that since. If they were able to prevent rain over fifteen years ago, I would have to wonder what can be done now. I would also wonder why this technology is not used to prevent floods, droughts, etc.

really? You just wanted people to stop making fun of the shitty band that you have a positive emotional response to? Because it hurts your feelings that "Yellow" isn't held as the unassailable work of genius that you believe it is?
Really? For what? A bloated dead body is a bloated dead body. If you want to see one, go down there and check it out for yourself or crash the internet for all the gore you can stomach. Will images of 'Old Man Tyler's' maggot infested corpse prove anything? Hurricanes and massive flooding killed these people (and oddly enough, always seem to). FEMA didn't. Bush didn't. What point does "we need to see these" photos prove?
Really? So all those 2nd-hand bookshops, used CD stores, and old DVD resellers are pirates?
really? We've all seen what happens to dissenting voices. Most of the time they speak out, we in the Left herald them as great, and then FOX news and the 'liberal media' tear them apart, make them out to be nutjobs, and the Administration's plans continue on as normal.
really? I've never heard of any democrats organizing to trick people with Alzheimers into voting democrat. Maybe they do, but...

Really?
Really?! Damn.
really? Never heard of it. Downloaded the first episode. Lame. It's a one-trick pony, with bad animation. I'm not at all surprised Cosby sent a C&D.

Really? How? Do you think the doctors, in their nefarious ways decided "what an opportunity! We get to kill our patients and thus keep the rest of us strong and healthy!"
Really? I figured the original would be in Greek.

Really? I think Windows came first before this car. Perhaps some people were still running dos apps. It was a pretty good marketing ploy, though. The car says hi to you, and looks kinda like a face from the front.

Really? So people will just stop driving to work? All those millions that are barely making it from month to month are going to trade in their cars for a Prius? Do you really think that they "get cheap shit at the Megamall" because they LIKE it? And when gas gets to $5, they will have enough disposable income to by local organic shit that is twice as expensive?
In this country one has to be really well off to be able to afford living a "simple life" and have a "small footprint". Not everyone gets several hundred grand a year. And $5 dollar gas is not going to change it.
Really? I thought it was because most people have no imagination. I mean, really, what the hell is so stupid about this as opposed to bulldozing a few more thousand trees and putting up another fucking Starbucks or Target? I'll take some stupid artist having some fun over Wal Mart anyday. Really, what would you rather do, stumble on a giant pink bunny that might actually be funny or drive past 10 new QuickLube stores?
Really? Then how come I get JRun errors fairly frequently here?
really? Did you expect this event, one of many so far, smaller than others in the past, was going to get more press than Katrina and Rita? I didn't realize that Sheehan was potentially threatening the lives of thousands of people.
really?
really?
Supposedly, the b&w of GNGL looks better than usual because it's actually printed on b&w stock, which is more expensive. The result is that you get great grey tones. Looks really good what with all those people smoking elegantly etc.
Really? I heard that it was filmed in color first, then printed on b&W because filming in b&w was too costly. But then, I don't really know about these sort of things, so...*shrug*

Sounds like this is a case of too-much-frikken-money-itis. I don't care if he's not really "rich". He's definitely in the class of people who at the very least have more money to spend than they should. I could use that 7,000, even if it is in Canadian.
Really? The stereotypes of cold Swedes, efficient Germans, and mean Scotsmen are are not founded on even a kernel of truth. Not even a kernel.

To be fair to decani, I can vouch for the fact that Christianity at least in the deep south does also embrace a lot of peculiar ideas about what Heaven is lole, since there's no real orthodox view--I've met quite a few guys in my life who believe heaven will be like a giant pool party full of nubile girls (not really all that different from the 75 virgins vision of heaven). I've met others who believed they would get to see all their dead relatives and childhood pets when they get to Heaven, etc. So whatever.

Really? What percentage of the IPod market uses a PC (sans-Firewire), do you think?
Really? Wow.
Really, yes. You don't? I guess you think that being "rewarded" with eternal life with some invisible dude and countless other Christian souls in some indeterminate location/plane so long as you believe in the words of a couple of old books which say some guy came down from heaven and got nailed up to make some sort of point... is somehow more rational than believing you get to shag a bunch of hot chicks after you die.

I'm prepared to be told otherwise, but nothing here has really made me want to find out more. Tongue-in-cheek can be a good thing, but it doesn't work *instead* of quality, only *with* quality.

Really? I liked it better when you posted about societal inequities and the rampant imperialism in the current administration.

Really? I thought the object was first to make the world safer from WMD's (does WP constitute a WMD?) and then to "save" the Iraq from an evil dictator who killed and tortured civilians and to bring peace, prosperity and democracy to the region.

Holy shit. I missed a lot. Anyway, I don't know if you people out there are into sticking it to the man, but if you are, than I say this: stick it to the man. A sampling of a conversation I recently had with The Man, aka Dow, aka God Shamgod (whatever happened to him anyway), aka I Almost Died, aka Unbelievable, aka Wow, That Really Was Unbelievable (so much so that I can't believe it even at this moment)...
Really? I'd figure it would take quite a while longer.
Okay, what really squicked me out is that there are 5 sex offenders living within walking distance of the closest elementary school. Regardless of the details of their crimes, that don't seem right.
Really? What if the details are as Gyan outlines above - say, an 18 year old who got caught fucking her 16 year old boyfriend? Should she really not be allowed to live near a school at age 30?

really? I hear people with kids on tv saying "Well we wouldn't let our kids, blah, blah, blah..." but would they otherwise "let their kids..."? Presumably not, and if this somehow makes them think they can trust people so long as they've confirmed they're not a sex offender, then these registries are more dangerous than helpful.

Really? I was turned off by the music, then annoyed by the fans who told me I just didn't 'get it'. I never will, and I'll always find minor joy in being disgusted by the Grateful Dead.
Really? Because what I see are advertisers and corporations who wish to be as universally inclusive as possible using "Happy Holidays" as a way to foist Elmo dolls and VCR's to as many people as possible. What I also see are old, white, rich men in the establishment media finding another "red-meat" issue to act outraged about for ratings, so they can in-turn charge more for advertising.
Really? The hair, it confused me. Sometimes it is big, and sometimes it is small.
Hi back to you, you! I just debated internally for a really long time what name to call you back and considered abbreviating you to Anus, but it just seemed WRONG wrong wrong and downright unfriendly, given that you are not remotely anus-like (or otherwise appearing to freakishly lack an anus) in person, though on the latter point while I suppose this needn't be obvious at a casual meet up I am still dubious. Anyway, hello there!! :)

Really? Living out a second childhood? He doesn't know what he's talking about? You may disagree with him, but I think you're being a bit harsh in your critiques. Many of the articles posted (thanks y2karl) pick and choose a few key phrases or points to lambaste, but don't come close to analyzing the full breadth that went into a book that had him in Columbia, Mongolia, Djibouti, the Philippines, Eritrea, Afghanistan and Iraq, with notes on Nicaragua, Korea, Ethiopia, the 1980-1989 Soviet invasion of Afghanistan (which he was present for), the Iran-Iraq war (which he was present for) and Vietnam. It's also difficult to read this book in isolation and draw conclusions about his personal politics and global-level analysis. This book, was broad in terms of the historical and political background provided, however was quite narrow in terms of the first person narrative, and tactical and logistical analysis of US operations abroad. I'm not sure some of the reviewers got that.

Really? I do not think there is a moral equivalency between calling for bin Laden dead or alive (or substitute anyone you believe is super-evil) and raping a baby to death (or substitute any viscerally shocking and morally reprehensible killing). I am opposed to the death penalty, but I think it is facile logic to claim that all killing is the same, even in the more limited case of comparing the state's right to kill versus the individual right to kill.
Really? I seem to recall them being around when I was getting all politicized and stuff at UBC more than 20 years ago. But then again, it's a possible I dreamed that.

Really? Maybe I missed something in the descriptions, but this was a mining accident. I would imagine that it might not have been that the rescuers just opened a door and found 12 guys lying in a big room. They might have visualized them first and not been able to get to them; it might have taken time to get from one man to the next (so though it was apparent that the news was wrong, they might have waited for confirmation on everybody's status before giving the full story); perhaps given the misunderstandings by someone of earlier communications with rescuers, they sought an extra degree of confirmation. In any case, they waited at least until they knew exactly what they were talking about before making a full report. It was going to be horrible for the families either way--better i think to be sure than to do a minute-by-minute and keep everyone on edge waiting.
Really?
Really? It's common for Indiana judges to make rulings that are more far-reaching and take a more expansive view of the establishment clause than any U.S. Supreme Court case has to date?
So, it's really run-of-the-mill for Indiana to restrict religious activity that far outside the mainstream? Wow. I always thought Indiana was behind the times and was overly deferential to religion. And I thought this judge's decision was a pretty rare thing for that state, or any other.

On the other hand, 22 really doesn't seem that old to me at this point, and I'm only 25, but. Is there really that much difference between a 22 year old and an 18 year old?
Also, is an 18 year old having sex with a 14 year old really that bad? In many states, and Japan, it would not be illegal. Here's the archetypal age of consent site.
Really? Did he not know that was a well-known US city? I mean, WTF? IF there had been a real British locale with that name the U.S. version would have been New Cleveland.

Yes we live in a country that doesn't have as totalitarian of a government than that of China, but it really isn't THAT much less totalitarian. Google still hast to play by the rules of the US government.

Really? So monuments depicting the Ten Commandments in front of capitols and courthouses are permissible? Legislative pray is permissible? A voluntary pledge of allegience, including the phrase "under God," is permissible? An explicitly Christian invocation and a graduation ceremony is permissibly? Funny, I hear and read about people arguing over these and other issues all the time. Forced participation is certainly the starkest example of government interference with religious freedoms, but governmental endorsement of religion is also problematic.

Really? We must have seen different movies. I thought Munich was terrific. Spielberg's forgotten more about directing than most people will ever know, and it shows. As a thriller, it's incredibely fluid and gripping, with Hitchcock moments and escalating tension, and it's also a profound, multi-layered policital statement--whenver I thought I had figured out the movie's point of view, it made the issue more complex. Couldn't stop thinking about it for weeks.

She wanted a response, and got a response, and in the end, did nothing more than reinforce the right's perception that the anti-war movement is nothing more than a pack of rabble-rousers who don't really have anything if substance to say and preach to her choir.

" "This was purely an example," Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman said. [...] Asked why the president used the words "the Middle East" when he didn't really mean them, one administration official said Bush wanted to dramatize the issue in a way that "every American sitting out there listening to the speech understands." The official spoke only on condition of anonymity because he feared that his remarks might get him in trouble. "

Really? Is there a link for research on that? My mom has chronic pain (using a TENS unit now) and when she decided she'd had enough of the cost of morphine, and went off it cold turkey, we had to call an ambulance for what the 911 folks thought were signs of all sorts of things. Turned out it was drug withdrawl. Coworker with FM, same thing. Neither was getting high, or even relief any more, from being on the meds so long (hence the desire to stop paying for them) but did indeed have withdrawls - which in old people can be seriously scary: Sweating, chills, severe twitching and muscle spasms that produce weird kicking motions, cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, big drop in blood pressure, heart rate changes, etc.

And I'd be all like, "Really, you can talk to dead people? Show me."

Not as much as here... but it was maybe 75-25 or 60-40 as opposed to 90-10/95-5 here. Of course it's such a big community you never know who'll show up where.

Really? When the largest single gathering of Austrians ever was to welcome the German Nazi forces, I doubt the inability to write a book about Nazis would have stopped anything. If a very large group of people want to believe something, not letting them legally talk about it probably won't help and more likely will make their beliefs even more virulent because they feel they are being silenced.

How many hours have you personally devoted to studying this subject you are so eager to rob others of their most fundamental human rights over? Interesting how so many people, by their transparent depth of knowledge, are seemingly more interested in protecting moderate-feeling mantras than facts, because mantras are all they really believe, see or know.

Really? I'm very skeptical of any "good news" out of Iraq now, because this is precisely the kind of story that we have a large contingent of our armed forces employed full time to make up and plant in local Iraqi newspapers. Which then get picked up by a small, usually conservative paper in the U.S., which then ends up in Google News, leaving war supporters here asking, "Why doesn't the media ever cover any of this good stuff going on in Iraq?"

it's certainly less appalling that a war based on fraud, but crude gestures and "vaffanculo" in Church don't mix well with the GOP's "OMFGXtianityRulez" crusade, really. like Cheney's "fuck you" on the Senate floor and his green parka at Auschwitz, Scalia's behavior tells a lot about the man, about their contempt for others (God and the Shoah included)
really? is that appropriate behavior in your church -- crude gestures are OK in God's house? if it is, then that explains a lot re: your behavior here. as Mykeru said, try to imitate Mr. Scalia's geture in front of a bunch of Sicilians. then quote Barzini to them, as you run away

Star Wars was a kid's movie that added a sci-fi fantasy element to the generic standard format of adventure narrative. Yes, thirty years later the wild success of the film retcons it's eternal quality but to actual have the money it made blind you into believing it was a fantastic script- the script, of all things- is just ridiculous.

Actually those baseball cards aren't based on retail pricing. That's technically secondary market pricing (like tickets from a ticket broker or that care bears sleeping bag on ebay that you always wanted but couldn't get) which reflects nostalgic, rarity and scarcity value. Not intrinsic value. Oil isn't expensive because it's made of oil, it's expensive because we *really* want it and it's getting harder (and more expensive) to get it out of the ground.

Really? I worked at a company for 3 and a half years. In that time, I received one cost of living wage raise, and never a single bonus. From what I've heard, Tesco is actually one of the BETTER employers out there. Yeah, this is a piddly sort of "bonus" that they've given their employees - but I don't see anywhere reporting that Tesco has said "in lieu of a yearly bonus, please enjoy this free meal at the canteen". I just don't understand the outrage.
Really? You're comparing voluntary employees of Tesco in the year 2006 to fictional orphans in Victorian novels? Hey, if you don't like your offer of employment, don't sign it. If you do sign it, don't be surprised if your employer actually pays you only what you both agreed to.

Really? It's the opposite for me. Civil law has little continuity, is shaped by the whims of the time and is often rigid to the point of absurdity. Cases like this that stand the test of time highlight the value of precedent, until a logical legal argument can be made to overturn or modify them. In something as fluid and living as contract law (as opposed to say, the criminal code or a traffic act), do you really want lawmakers trying to conceive of every possible scenario and drawing up complex meandering legislation instead of establishing (relatively) loose guidelines and principles and having judges adapt as required by the environment?

Really? "Incredibly"? I'd reserve an adjective like that for, I dunno, missing half the English parts of speech, losing track of the space bar, and saying "banana" in place of a punch line. Why do people so often need to throw in overstated adjectives? If the goal is to get people to take you seriously, it's having the opposite effect.

"If people want to argue . . . that Coulter is just some fringe, irrelevant figure whom Republicans detest, then it really is incumbent on them to explain why millions of Bush followers buy her books, why they cheer on her hateful, violence-advocating rants, why she is one of the most featured pro-Bush pundits on Fox, and why she is one of the featured speakers at the most important conservative event of the year."

Yes, really. Maybe not out in the sticks, but in the urban areas--absolutely. Straight teenage boys obsess about getting the right look, the right smell, the right hairdo in a way that would have seemed extremely queer (in every sense of the word) to my generation. That whole "metrosexual" thing hits hard for a certain middle class teen demographic.

really? It's true that in the run-up to the invasion of Iraq, Bush et al had to be a little subtler. But they managed to make sure that mentions of "Iraq" were closely juxtaposed with mentions of "9/11" in trusted media outlets over and over again. And it worked. Sure, not everyone was suckered by it, but a lot were.
Really? Talk to the people of China, the Soviet Union, Romania, Albania, Bulgaria, East Germany and Cuba. Wonder if they had walls and electrified fences keeping them in. Wonder if they had monuments to megalomania. Wonder if they suffered through purges, starvation and tyranny at the hands of the party and the secret police. Exception? No, my obtuse friend, the DPRK is the model, whether present-day "communists" know it or not.

Influential rock critic? Who the hell buys rock albums based on the opinion of a critic? This isn't postmodern literature. It's four chords over a backbeat.

I guess Ayers Rock was a nod to Kangaroo Jack - which is using Australian icons to make an American movie, and this song is using a traditional Australian song to make an American video. It fits. In a sick and twisted way.

Really? Because to me, there's no way to read that statement other than 'men who've undergone gender reassignment surgery look like physically repellent specimens of womanhood'. Which does strike me as more than a little insulting in that you're implying that the majority of TS women look like bad caricatures of transvestites.
Really? Referring to someone as a 'fundy' is as inflammatory as calling someone a racist epithet? OK. Good to know. I'll just refer to them as "persons of Christian faith that wish to re-shape society in their narrow, blinkered interpretation of propriety and who won't stop trying to ram their restrictive, homophobic, anti-Constitutional views down my throat". Yeah, it's a bit more cumbersome, but gets to the point with more clarity.

Really? It's a nice excuse, anyway.
really? Not only is this completely untrue, it's a slap in the face to anyone who has risked social censure to stand against government injustice. It essentially claims in broad strokes that whites who worked in the civil rights movement risked no real consequences to their social standing, let alone life and limb. It belittles the witchhunts of the red scare, glosses over a red-state climate of intimidation and reprisal in which free speech can invite death threats.

Yes, there are different conservative groups and currents. Not all conservatives tried to "save" Terry. Not all of them think that Ten Commandments is the basis of our Constitution. Not all of them have "We're coming, motherfuckers" or "Support our troops" stickers on their cars. And not all of them get that funny tingling feeling between their legs when they watch aircraft gun camera footage. But the majority of people in any the groops that do ARE conservatives. And you know it as well as I do. So I don't really understand the point of your post. Are you saying that, if Democrats win this next round, these people will change their opinions? When we have no choice but to withdraw the forces from Iraq, leaving a god damned crater of a country behind, are you saying they will NOT try to blame the liberal hippie peacenik pinkos for the failure, and will instead blame the inept administration? And that will be the majority of conservatives, at least the ones that vote?

Really? I walked out of the Claire Danes remake of Romeo and Juliet, and I turned off Dungeons & Dragons after about 10 minutes — and don't get me started on the recent trend of horror/action movies whose villains have absolutely no motivation whatsoever. I'll bet Clerks 2 is going to suck, but I doubt it'll merit any special mention in that regard.
Really? This movie looks like such an obvious cash-in, more like Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back 2, which is something I wouldn't wish on anyone. Just a long string of cameos from his BEST BUDS draped over a bunch of over-written, self-obsessed dialogue.

Really? You sound like you know what you're talking about, so maybe you can answer this question I've been wondering about. I mean, my friend has been wondering about. He's concerned about the health of his reproductive organs, and stuff, and he was just wondering whether a dual overhead cam is better for penis enhancement, or whether a pushrod engine would be okay. And would the type of fuel injection system make a difference? Because I'd hate to think this guy might hurt that very sensitive part of his body by driving a car with throttle-boddy injection, when some kind of multi-port system could greatly enhance his sexual performance. Okay, thanks.

That's surprising considering that there the LD50 of marijuana is absurdly high (cannaboids do not attach themselves to the cardiovascular regions of the brain). And I don't know where to touch the systematically irresponsible portion. Perhaps you'd like to meet my friend who smokes every day and recently got accepted to Harvard Law? Does alcohol make people systematically irresponsible? Or tobacco? While yes, it does increase the chance that someone stupid does something stupid -- it seems rather asymmetric to me to punish everyone when stupid people and stupid decisions abound regardless of the legality of a substance.

really? Hard-ish sci-fi is grounded in more than a wee bit of science. For the protagonist to just suddenly see things like in the movie "Ghost" seems silly and counterproductive in a sci-fi story. Its aribitrary and will ruin the suspension of disbelief a good story produces. There's no shortage of this stuff in every other genre. Scifi is probably the only place where the mechanical view of the world isn't there to shock and scare the reader. Or a story where the atheist or agnostic character isn't the villian.

Really? That's interesting because pretty much every physics textbook I ever read said it did. Just because something is useful, does not mean it has any validity. Ptolemaic geocentric system was able to predict the movements of planets pretty damn accurately. So then the heliocentric model didn't really overturn the whole astronomy, right?
Mr_roboto, I'm not comparing the strengths of Einstein's explanations of photoelectric effect to to psi theory or anything like that.

Really? I imagine there is, for instance, a lot of amateur S&M porn on the web - just people sharing what they think is erotic (and showing off their gear). Do you assume that these people would cease doing what gives them their kicks in private just because no one looks at their videos anymore? Or that an increased demand would cause people who normally would abstain from such practices to indulge in them, film it and put the videos up?
Really? I'd rather he turn out something in the style of Endtroducing or Preemptive Strike than something he considers interesting but is not, in fact, interesting at all. I don't know...I've given it quite a few listens and keep waiting for that magical moment of revelation...for something that I'm possibly missing (the man's past work gives him quite the benefit of a doubt). But I can't help but, thus far, feel deeply, deeply disappointed--like, Bowie in the 80's-disappointed.

Really? The Home Office had to force police officers to register their membership of the Masons after a voluntary scheme was boycotted, the MOD banned all Masonic activity on their property and banned Masons from recruiting military colleagues. Judges, prison officers and probation officers are all required to declare membership (I forget the outcome of the debate over MPs being forced to declare). I suppose that's all a precaution just in case a Mason might ever consider giving a fellow Mason preferential treatment, without anyone outside the Masons knowing that they're both Masons.

really? Was CBGB a place that the average going-nowhere-but-still-fun band could realistically aspire to play? I mean, I look at it through the lens of Minneapolis, where our warhorse institution has sort of a double significance as the place where you've seen everybody AND the place where you've played (even if it was only the 7th St Entry). I've always heard of CBGB as the place where legends played, but are there also people mourning because they did a great show there at midnight on a tuesday night for twenty people?

mediareport, that's a sensible enough reaction, but (1) having seen lawyers who file motions for reconsideration (supposed to be rarely granted to reverse an earlier, errant decision) as a matter of course, it's easy to see this used as just one more thing to gum up the works. (2) The "unreasonable delay" hook could be really broad.
really? How often are judges engaged in fraud and deliberate disregard of facts and whatnot? If there's that big of a problem with the administration of justice in SD, then it should be fixed. This whole initiative, to me, excessively personalizes the administration of the law. It seems more designed to build resentment against judges. It fits with the shoutfests and demonization common in political discussions these days.

It seems our modern understanding is dominated by mathematics. This, according to Kant, is what our understanding gets up to when unconstrained by any facts. When we use these analogies, such as the 'South Pole' analogy that you gave above, do we really understand?

I kind of agree with you about how Obama seems to be getting a bit of a free pass on a lot of stuff for some reason. Sure he is youthful, energetic, and speaks pretty well. But he really hasn't done anything and I think that many will find him a bit too religous for their liking.

Meh. I threw a can of warm orange soda at (into the car of) a driver (stopped at the time) who almost killed me on 76 in Philly when I was on my way home for a nooner. It's really not as bad as it sounds, and frankly I think the guy (that I threw at) deserved a lot more than a soda to the face. The "victim" in this story sounds like a whiny arrogant douche who thinks he should be able to run around flipping people off with no fear of sugary, carbonated reprisal.

But mostly the weirdest thing about YouTube comments is how, no matter what the subject of the video is, the messages almost always and immediately descend into really odious racism. I mean, I know that there are racists everywhere, and internet anonymity only exacerbates the situation, but SERIOUSLY. I was watching a Real World: Denver clip, and within the first few comments Ty (one of the black cast members) was called a "negro," a "silverback gorilla," and a "sub-human." By three different posters.

Really? I've talked to a NRC senior research officer (NMR research) and a chemist working for Environment Canada (one who assesses environmental analytical labs for competency) about "An Inconvenient Truth" and BOTH of them told me that Al Gore's movie is a crock. To my surprise, both of them felt that human destruction of the environment has very little, if nothing, to do any climate change that occurs. If they don't have some scientific authority on a matter like this, I'm not sure who would. It seems to me like Al Gore might be on the other side of that consensus.

Or perhaps only in the US can these people vote, because surely in other places such feelings are properly suppressed? There's nothing unique about this at all. It's a natural human impulse to attack those that you fear or are different than you, as every society in history has shown. In fact, one might suggest that articles trying to paint your ideological opponents as hateful, bloodthirsty monsters might be an example of this urge to demonize the enemy and glorify your group.

Sorry guys, I thought this was a relatively benign look at what is obviously a media-fueled immediate-term overreaction to the issue. It doesn't deny climate change, it doesn't deny humans are causing it. It quotes scientists who are firmly behind cutting CO2 emmissions and lobbying governments. It only attempts to check some of the excesses and exagerations that have been selling copy lately. I really don't think this is the sort of thing Pope Urban would have written.
I'd love to really get into this, but I really don't think there's any point, at least with the comments made so far. So I'll bow out. As the only one wise enough to see the truth, of course.

Really? It was the "Figures" collection in particular that reminded me immediately of Bellmer, and specifically of Bellmer's work with the doll fashioned from two sets of legs. The toys refashioned in the museum that double torsos or otherwise multiply specific body parts suggested to me something of surrealist doubling, designed in part to elicit an experience of the uncanny. While the museum is certainly quite whimsical, the connections I drew between the various toys and surrealist theory led me to have an ultimately quite unsettling viewing experience.

Now where’s my damn jug a Diet Pepsi?” Where the saintly Julia Child sought to raise expectations, to enlighten us, make us better--teach us--and in fact, did, Rachael uses her strange and terrible powers to narcotize her public with her hypnotic mantra of Yummo and Evoo and Sammys. “You’re doing just fine.

Let's dissect your own character, and for every way in which we find you imperfect, more people will decide for themselves, publicly state, and perhaps even distribute through major media outlets the suggestion that you're a lying, manipulative whore!" The more powerful your attacker is, the more likely this is to happen. Even though it looks like the woman in this case did falsely accuse, the amount that her character has been eviscerated in the press deters women who have a true story to tell, because all this affects how believeable a woman claiming rape is in general, as well as how terribly they can expect to be treated if they aren't believed.

I wish people stopped attacking OldBoy the movie. I personally liked it a lot and I know others who did too, and really -come on, I have trouble hiding my incredulousness- we are not wackos! If people cannot separate life from fiction, artistic licence from licence to kill, that is a whole other problem. If people have such disregard of another being's life, it is a deep societal problem which has to do with the way we live, our priorities, our self-centered culture.

Really? In circumstances where journalists are a closed circle, defining their own supposed professional standards, and rejecting broad-based criticism from outside their circle, I find it hard to believe that we're seeing any true accountability.
Ultimately, mainstream journalists, in general, seem to believe that interviewing one person from column a and one from column b is really an effective form of research. And don't even get me started on their susceptibility to professional PR.

Really? Not the fact that his attackers got off with a (relative) slap on the wrist? Not that his wife died of cancer during the decade he's spent completely paralyzed. Not that all of this has driven him to the point of not wanting to live anymore? The saddest part is that he believes in an afterlife?

Really? What kind of "biologically consistent dynamical properties" are we talking about? We don't even get an attempt to describe them, just a mention of "a very short research note" from the scientists. Sounds like a very poor and premilinary simulation of "biological neural structure." I love this subject area, but I'm having a hard time seeing what's newsworthy here.

Huh, I never heard of these here "PID controllers", that's cool. OK, so I need to know the angular velocity of a falling pendulum...what's the formula for that again? Google! Rinse and repeat.

Really? You think that when world leaders have close-door meetings negotiating things, the foreign leaders tell the U.S. President that they think he's bluffing because several years earlier in a debate one time he made a campaign promise that the foreign leader is just sure the President will keep no matter what?

What I meant was, often, if you say you don't know a band, people will do the "act like you don't believe it, but not because you really don't believe, but instead to express disdain that someone's tastes aren't good enough to know the band" thing. "You don't know Flipping Throughput Overtrough?! They got a five star rating at Pitchfork!" It's similar to the disdain-masked-as-surprise thing that happens when there's a good movie that you haven't seen, or a good book that you haven't read. I just meant that this guy wasn't expressing surprise in that way, as a form of disdain for our inferior tastes, but just regular ole "no way!" amazement.
Really? I think you're conflating "people who care about their dogs" and "people who are responsible with their dogs". Take, for example, your average white-trash mom who lets their kid play unsupervised in a high traffic area. You might say "a parent who cares about their kid wouldn't let their kid do that", but I bet you if the kid got hit by a car and killed, the parent would be heartbroken. She cares about the kid, she's just incredibly irresponsible. Being irresponsible or lazy and allowing one's pet or kid to be in potential danger doesn't mean that you don't care, it just means you are irresponsible or lazy.

Really? Got a cite on that? Far as I can tell, toxic means poisonous (really, it means an arrow of poison if we get all lexicographic). Further, should we be wearing our pedant hats, a toxin is regarded in medicine as an organically produced agent which harms life or health (which would exclude water but include THC and a fair number of other compounds).

Really? The same statistics and analysis that predicted we'd hit a $100 bbl last year? I heard nothing about oil prices being $70 bbl in the 90s, in fact option prices didn't expect it to go above $30. Perhaps you have some special statistical box that spits these things out?
Granted, oil is a finite resource, it will be used up one day. The question is really at what price will it cost us to move to another energy source. If estimates of 50$ bbl for creating oil from other sources is correct, I would say the costs are rather low.

Really? Flickr, both pre-Yahoo and post-Yahoo never did that to their employees. I can pull out tons of comments from Stewart and George and others which were fairly loose-cannon. But they were trying to speak to the community not hover above them and talk down in corporate-speak.

Really? That 6% of people who are paid to figure out how to win games would make a bid that could not possibly win does not surprise you? It makes about as much sense to me as if you held a competition of 100 chefs to see who can make the best dish, and 6 of them shat on the plate and went home (even if shitting on a plate may be optimal in a very specific context). Wouldn't professional pride motivate you not to end up at the bottom of the table (as those 3 $2 dudes will have done).

There is no doubt that real Pirates are interesting, but let's not forget that for the most part, they were also really unpleasant people. Good for story-telling? Yes. Not good or safe for children, women, or elders? Also true.

Really? I think I have at least a small tendency for that. I may have gotten it mostly out of my system by my twenties—an unfortunate consequence of this is that I think I'm more inclined to be an actual snob than before. Perhaps you were thinking that my being an occasional snob meant that I'm not often a reverse snob? :) The sad truth, of course, is that the two things are pretty much the same. They're both unpleasant and sometimes ugly.
"but if we're talking about systems of governance and ways of organizing societies, etc, at least some choices should really be built in and inherent. If no choices are built in, then it's not democracy."
Really? You don't believe that plenty of people have made a choice that a) guaranteed death and b) placed some other value over their own life? Frankly, if you can't think of examples from protesting monks lighting themselves on fire to the 9/11 hijackers, from Jews during the Inquisition to the original Zealots, etc. etc., you just aren't trying very hard. There are people the world over who would gladly die for a cause. There is always a choice.

Really? When we laugh at Barbara Walters, are we laughing at Bostonians? Because I laughed at her way of talking as a kid, but never with the opinion that Bostonians are inferior, which is the corollary of what you're saying. I wasn't a transcriber, but if I were, and Alexyss spoke as she does, I would have transcribed her as she spoke, regardless of what color she were, because it's funny. It's not funny because she's black, it's just funny. I think if color is a non-factor in whether you find something amusing or not, it's pretty hard for it to be racism.

I mean, I'm apparently part of the heartless snark brigade, but even then, I think this was a much better obit than "Erik liked model trains when he was little, and kept that love of trains into his adult life as a railroad conductor" or the like. Frankly, information like that is completely useless unless you know the person, and then you already know it. Writing a warning about drugs may be almost completely useless, but "almost useless" is a damn sight better than "completely useless". I'd find it sadder if his dad wanted to tell strangers about minutiae that he knew they would have no interest in than if he wanted to effect some modicum of positive change.
really? Are you familiar with this concept?
And I'm visualizing something really, really awesome awful.

really? Those are the houses that inspired her to write the song? Damn, they're cute! They're charming as hell! I always figured it was some of those Long Island subdivisions, which were much more bland, design-wise. That Flickr set shows little houses with curiously slanted roofs and angles and whatnot: I think they look great!
Really? That's weird. I just figured it wouldn't be any harder to make them work underground than it would be to make them work on a normal roof.

Really? Because I think it's more than a little odd that Al Qaeda would have applications. Is joining them like getting a job at Burger King? Do they need to know where to send your paycheck and who your In Case of Emergency numbers are?
I don't doubt that there was an application, I just really question if it had anything to do with joining a terror cell.

"I'm just really not sure where we should actually stand on an issue like this one."
Really? I would only have a quandary about this if I ignored every advancement in medicine and the social sciences over the last 200 years or so.

Meanwhile the less adventurous men are back home, consoling the young widows... Is there a study that backs up his claim, or is he just making shit up?
Really? And I'm a troll?
Really?) should be no reason to reject it out of hand.

Really? I never gleaned that from his writing.
really? I do the same thing when writing. It may take me several days to get my ideas straight in my head, how I want to phrase certain statements, how I want to organize my defense of the main points, and where and how I will insert supporting evidence such as images, graphs and tables. I work best when I have long periods of time to continue writing. If I have a coffee break, it gives me a few minutes to re-think the structure and work out kinks before they are committed to disk. If I know I have to stop writing in an hour I usually get nothing done, as it takes me an hour or so to gear up to write in the first place. Finally, coming back to an old chunk of text long after I've written it, I often don't know what I was thinking when it was first put together.
In many ways this kind of advice could really apply anywhere people use their brains to get things done.
Really? Somebody continuing sex with a struggling person is okay? Consent, once given, can't be retracted?
He's got enough connections that someone could give him a job. I'd really rather see that happen than this. It would be better for him in the long run.
Really? Because I'd rather see him suffer for his fucking hypocrisy for the rest of his life. I want him to have no fucking chance of making more money ever again. I want to see him drown and suffer in the mountains of bullshit he has peddled.
Really? I gotta go with the Cure, the Smiths, My Bloody Valentine, Ride, Radiohead and Blur over these guys.
I love the first Stone Roses album... and that ep they had with Fool's Gold on it. And sometimes I find myself liking The Second Coming. Breaking into Heaven and Love Spreads really push a lot of the right buttons for me. Hell, I like a lot of Ian Brown's solo stuff. I think a lot of the shoegaze stuff can be laid at The Stone Roses' door.

Please also take half a step back and realize your opinions may be influenced by the somewhat insular culture that companies often possess.

Really? No, things are not perfect, but there is a system in place that for the most part works and keeps us from the massive shit that used to go on here and is going on now in China.

Every now and again someone pipes up claims he or she was there "when Burning Man began," but these claims are almost always complete bullshit.

Really? I mean, I'll grant you, that I don't think he could hijack a couple of planes and crash them into something anymore, but beyond that, everything we've put in place since the WTCs coming down is just security theater.
I'm not suggesting that we should be living in fear or anything, but let's be honest. 9-11 didn't really change all that much in terms of how we protect ourselves. All it really did was scare us into giving up rights that don't really make us any safer.
If bin Laden really wanted to hit us again, I suspect he could. I don't worry about it though; because there is a big gap between 'possible' and 'probable'.

How do we know there wasn't some kind of cost-benefit analysis that said "unless projections equal or exceed 3.4 billion saved souls, it's not worth it to send Jesus to die. They'll just have to muddle on without him." All the "he did this just for you" nonsense drives me nuts. Self-important myopic theology gets under my skin a lot quicker than crackpot theories about dragonsaurs on the ark.

Do you really believe that a nation can exist without a standing army of some kind? I'm sorry, but that is just not realistic. I wish that the world was different, but it just is not. The best we can do as citizens in a VERY imperfect democracy, is become more invloved in the political process, start movements, vote, protest etc., so that we can put people in power that will use war as a last resort instead of a pre-emptive tool for their greed and ignorance.

Well, I liked 'em okay enough that I was willing to listen to them again, but I didn't really "get" them until I'd had them for a bit and they'd sunk in and I started to really understand the genius of them. I think a key factor with those might be that I got them fairly early in my attempts to expand my collection beyond what I heard on the radio (MBV included), when I was basically going around and picking up what were generally considered the "classics". As such, I'd never really heard anything in depth by any of those bands before, and Pink Flag may have been the first real-deal punk album I ever bought. Imagine going from Nirvana to 28 second long songs--that's a big jump! Now I can't go for any serious length of time without hearing them, and I'm probably on my third copy of all of them.

Just how broken WOULD the economy end up if those hippy nutjob wacko*'s got hold of the reins of power?

And, you know, if you were to go back to Hahn's site (which I thought was really nice except for the emberassing ten-second polemic at the begining) and imagine the TV those kids are looking at as UP, instead of DOWN... They would probably look altogether different.

I'll wager that if you set up a scene like this and photographed it twice, 5 or 10 minutes apart, you'd barely be able to detect a difference in the resulting shadows.

I don't see how anyone can read the collection of quotes Bennett assembles and not realize Amis has a serious problem with Islam and Muslims.

Really? I'm no specialist. I do know my human beings (as primates, among other things). But I have a hard time remembering the last time we discovered a hitherto completely unknown large, terrestrial, mammalian predator species, even granting the remoteness of the region involved here. I'm sure there are many species we've failed to find and catalog, especially of course at the micro-organismic level, and in the oceans.

Really? I've always understood "geek" as meaning "enthusiast". Or, rather, "so enthusiastic that 'normal' people think it makes the enthusiast uncool". That's been my understanding since around the early 80's, so if the language got watered down, it was a few decades ago.

really? You missed his recent television appearance where he was spouting crypto-Confederate arguments about how Lincoln was a big doody-head who should have had the government buy all the slaves if he wanted to free them so much? (Hints: The Southern states seceeded as soon as Lincoln was elected, not on a platform of freeing slaves, but of saying that new states joining the Union wouldn't be slave states. They then launched the first act of aggression in the war. Paul's argument only sounds logical to people who think of it as "The War of Northern Aggression" and are still kind of bitter about it.)
It no doubt would be better as a recycling deposit, and should probably be much higher, but I'm still really excited to see this. Or maybe they could use the revenue from the tax on bottled water to improve the tap water in the city. Bottled water is a huge waste for a lot of reasons, and water is a rapidly diminishing resource. It's about time American consumers start to consider that. Not that they'll notice the extra $.05, but, you know, it's the principle of the thing.

Well, I realize in re-reading that this is Canada. So I can't really speak to that. But if this as in the US, this would be a hella easy case to defend. The client would be instructed to not answer any questions about suppliers and other customer on 5th Amendment grounds. And the case would be won on contributory negligence, assumption of risk, and a number of other defenses. Hypothetically, if you knew that stabbing yourself in the eye was a bad thing, and I happen to sell scissors for use in stabbing yourself, then you would be barred from recovery if you bought scissors and proceeded to stab your eyes out with them. The illegality of the transaction does not effect the tort law analysis beyond making the negligence at issue negligence per se.

Really? You mean the ones that have all written columns about how much they genuinely like the guy, even though they don't agree with his policies? The editorials about how worried the Republicans should be that Obama is attracting so many young voters with his positive message of change and hope and all that jazz? Obama - I think at least in some part because of his race, but mostly because of his approach to politics - really takes a lot of the teeth out of the Republican attack machine. He is a master at diffusing that stuff, even turning it to his advantage. Hopefully we'll get to see him do it this summer and on into November.

Personally, I believe them. If you're serious about working in an industry like documentary film in which you have to persuade people to invest fairly significant sums of money before you can do what it is that you do, you really only have to blow it once before you've fucked up something you've worked hard at for many years, for the rest of your life.

Saying that you don't want to pay for Medicare is essentially saying "fuck you" to poor people. My response, in return, is to offer you a shit sandwich. It's really not so much a counterargument as a counter-insult.

What is scary is the fact that so many democrats seem dead set on giving him whatever he wants. Why is that? It can't be because they are actually scared of terrorist attacks. Is it because they're really that scared of the electorate? More likely, they are bought and paid for by the Telecoms and actually like the idea of being able to spy on anyone without a warrant.

Even in the age of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Afroman, most musicians I've met still see self-released albums as nice-looking demos. (I'm not saying that's a good thing.)

I'm sorry, but I think he had the better of that exchange.

So he likes his 20th century and contemporary art MUCH dryer than I like mine. It's his list.

I guess what interests me is the unholy alliance here between art and propaganda. (This same thing would be true regardless of the ideology being represented). You don't get a sense of artistic freedom, but rather an artists (the choreographer/dancers) being used to accomplish the will of the state (whipping up patriotic fervor or inculcate nationalistic pride and ideology). It's sort of sad really. Sort of like the singing of the National Anthem before sporting events in America.

How many secular charities rely on rich people just to get by? I mean theyre not all Paris Hilton. I imagine that if we truly destroy the rich that will create a power vacuum that will be filled by government social services and organized religions like Catholicism. Hmm, funny how that works out for them. No more big donations to planned parenthood. No more literature on contraceptives. No more cheap contraceptives. No more family planning. Funny coincidence that!

I have tried, horrifyingly unsuccessful, to get these people to sign up and get the coverage for their families. Of course the major demographic of the people I work with are non-white under 25 with no college education. They just haven't been taught how fragile health is and still have the invincibility of youth syndrome. One of my co-workers owns 2 houses, put her 2 kids though college without getting loans and comes to work at a crap job for money she doesn't need because the health insurance is great. She's over 40 and works 4pm to 12am 5 days a week for health insurance and cannot believe the blind stupidity of the majority of her co-workers.

I kind of get that maybe she thinks that their wax is less painful than others, but there's no painless wax, and frankly, a bikini wax on an eight year old girl makes me incredibly uncomfortable. When I read that, I immediately thought it was abuse.

He is in prison because he was idolized by people who committed murders, and the DA was able to prove that he masterminded them. As for him being a rapist, I have no idea what you're even talking about. He once went to prison for violating the Mann Act, but no one ever said he raped anyone. Unless you're one of those womymoymwmon who believes all sex with a man is rape.

really?) is pretty convincing precisely because it describes a situation where people ascribe to a set of beliefs/traditions for reasons of intellectual laziness, which is to say it's a descriptively accurate statement. Your appeal to whatever (your choice) is convincing as a normative claim about the problem you (and others) have regarding the choice all these intellectually lazy people make. (Though we should retain the possibility that some folks believe in the split for reasons beyond their own intellectual insufficiencies.) Which is to say that yours is hardly a rebuttal of my claim, as much as it is a statement of preference and a desire to see my claim about what is reconciled with your claim about what should be.
This really shouldn't have been called a "best books" list. But as Miko indicated earlier, as a collection there's something in here for just about every taste. Seriously, if these were the only books in existence, who couldn't find a book on this list to like?
That said... there's a lot of leeway given here. Almost 20 of them are collections of multiple books. I mean, the Complete Sherlock Holmes? Why not the complete Hercules Poirot instead of just Orient Express, then? And really, it's a nice artifact but if you're going to put an encyclopedia on the list, one that predates the steam engine probably shouldn't be your first choice.

Really? There are none on his list that I regret reading and a lot there I want to read. Just some minor quibbles about it. As far as these types of lists go I think Bloom is the most challenging and comprehensive and up to date I've seen. As he says, anything beyond the 19th century (roughly) is a "mugs games" trying to pick, not enough time has passed to determine what is canonical, so that part of the list (section "D") should bear the least weight (but it's the part most people get ruffled about).

There is a DARPA BAA out right now looking for a "Video and Image Retrieval and Analysis Tool" which is geared towards UAV video. The solicitation states that they want tools that can extract data from camera systems with a field of view that exceeds 25 km^2. There is also a DARPA SBIR solicitation (SB082-056) out right now for solar cell innovations. It would seem to me that the Vulture makes a lot of tactical sense. The vulture could capture large overhead views of an area, pipe this back to a "VIRAT" command station which does the computational heavy lifting and then dispatches more nimble UAVs and UGVs to areas of interest.

But plenty of comic book folks have turned batshit over the years, and that hasn't really impacted my appreciation of their prior work. Just for an example, I try to avoid anything new that Frank Miller's involved with, but there are a couple of his books that I still consider essential for comics fans (Dark Knight). But I've also been clear when dealing with recommending things to my girlfriend that, y'know, his art in the Elektra Returns book is amazing, and he has an unerring sense of pacing and paneling, but his writing is just absolutely moronic, both in his characterizations and his dialogue. Similarly, Yellow Bastard (the only worthwhile Sin City book to my mind) has writing so retarded that it should have to wear a safety helmet. I still enjoy it.

Surprisingly enough, I'm not sure MTV is really telling anybody anything they shouldn't already have learned from playing Urban Dead. Although in the past MTV has always been a stupendously powerful resource, this time they seem to have fallen behind the curve. (Try harder, MTV!) Especially since, apparently, a large number of us actually can guess the HIV status of the people in these pictures. Of course, the fallacy in play here is that we already know to guess that some of these people have HIV...
really? It's great to tell people to protect themselves and all, but I wonder whether this doesn't reinforce prejudice of those with HIV...the whole "they walk among us!" aspect of it, intentional or otherwise, strikes me as kind of not cool.
Really? I thought the military produced everything it used from scratch, using its own factories and labor, and using raw materials obtained from its own land.

Really? That's great! You do know that the Russians take it extremely seriously?" And he was all happy he now had some more ammunition to fire against his hated neighbors (this was the same guy that turned pale, looked around anxiously and almost ran away when we mentioned we had picked the restaurant we were eating on a gay guide).

Really? Because I just watched an episode where Martha gets easily grabbed by aliens and dragged off (helpless physically weak woman that she is), falling into a puddle of quicksand (helpless physically weak uncoordinated woman that she is) and being unable to get out (..ditto). I'm not an episode memorizer but it does seem that her function in the series is hapless abductee over and over again.

really? Sure, it would be cool to be a Terminator and everything but a system of philosophy, which is all transhumanism can claim to be at this point, ought to be able to provide us with instruction and assist us in living our present lives as morally as possible. Transhumanism does neither which means it fails as a philosophy which turns it into an appendix in a GURPS handbook.

No, not really. It was a joke. I think it's pretty obvious that if there was really some attack or bomb or whatever, I'd be perfectly safe and sound sixty stories up in a secure conference room saying "So, gentlemen, who do we pin this one on?"

I've found it rather refreshing when in police states and conflict hot spots when you walk in and ask for a room at a hotel room, they kind of look at you as if to say, "really, you're a tourist, here? Well OK..." before they get out the registry and start signing you in (or not as is often the case since then they'd have record of the foreign currency they just obtained).
really? You don't knock when you walk into your dad's room? What kind of a dick are you? My husband's grandmother's home had signs that said, very specifically, to knock. It's just respectful. Probably if he had, the issues would have been much easier to navigate.

Haven't you ever sat on a bus or a train or in a restaurant and bitched about work or your partner or your mom? Christ, has no one here ever fucked in a car? I don't know why people are pretending that there's no difference between recognizing that one or more strangers might witness this and the entire world can witness this over and over, forever. Maybe you only undress in your underground bunker, but to take the position that making love without checking that the curtains are drawn is tantamount to consenting to becoming an internet porn star - well, that's victim blaming of the highest caliber.

Really? I thought that little swaying thing she did was about the most honest thing I've ever seen her do. It was almost cute.
Really? I thought her complaints were at least as boring as the job she's employed to do. Of course it's mind numbingly dull. And so is her lengthy complaint. For someone who whinges about having to slog through endless banal minutia, she should have summed it up a lot quicker.
Really? That's sad. When I was a kid (cue "Ashokan Farewell") we'd just grab bats and gloves and head over to the nearest green space and try not to lose the ball.
But man, if Russert was "one of the best," what an indictment of the American press corps that is. Granted, he was bright, he liked politics, and was less loathsome than the Glenn Becks and Anne Coulters of the world, but really -- did he ever say anything truly original? Truly insightful? Truly meaningful? IMO, he just managed to spin insider conventional wisdom in a folksy-cutesy, highly camera-friendly way. This makes him a talented talking head, but I really don't think the title "journalist" should apply to him.

Really?" he said. "This is my third time reading it."
Really? Seriously? He was no more making an argument, then I was.
He was mocking creationists with a slide show and some semi-witty one liners. His entire message comes across as riffing on theme that might be paraphrased as: "Hey dude, when you really think about it the universe is harsh, man. Like it's way, harsh and badly built for humans. Oh, and also, wouldn't it be cool if we were more like dolphins? Totally!"
Really? s/Norris/Todd/g; and that's the best of the web?
Really? You never said so before the movie was released. Your marketing campaign seems pretty serious and straightforward. The movie's self-important message about the consequences of ecological damage seems like it wouldn't mesh well with a tone of parody or knowing humor. Sounds like backpedaling to me.

Really? I would say that unregulated industries and companies that boot private vehicles in violation of their own written contracts make America worse. Towing companies and booting companies are run by the shadiest, most unethical people in the world. I don't think it's their side you should be taking, especially when they're clearly in the wrong. It's not a very good Article, but maybe you should RTF thing anyway.

Really? I suspect that you've snapped a photo or two of gays at your church supper, your son's recent graduation ("Don't Ask, Don't Tell"). Your camera and you likely survived and God blessed you for finally being inclusive, accepting and non-jedgmental, as He has always sought his followers to be.

Really? As though this is an active choice she makes every time she uses? Addiction is a serious behavioral problem and not a choice. You may as well be saying that bipolar people are making a choice to max out their credit cards when they have a manic episode. Did you know? Depressed people can just choose to stop being depressed.

Really? It seems like mass should scale with cargo space, and displacement with mass, so there's technically more surface area exposed as the bow rides lower. And even if the engines have proportionally less drag to fight against, they're still providing less relative thrust per m^3 and they still have to move more weight. It seems like you'd have to use a lot of fuel just to fight inertia.
really? into her BRAIN? honestly, how does that happen?
Really? isn't the skull a very hard object that brain surgeons have to use power tools to get through when they need access to the brain? And aren't fingernails relatively brittle? I've broken nails opening cardboard boxes, is there a way to get my nails so strong they'll dig right through bone?
And if fingernails really can drill right through a skull, why didn't the doctors remove her fingernails? She'd look a bit strange and have a new itch for a week or two, but it would greatly reduce her ability to harm herself without tools.
Really? Huh.
Really? What auto-roller are you using? It takes a while to create new characters -- ESPECIALLY if you've never played before. It took my wife two hours to create her character, with assistance. She's no dummy; in fact, she's a professional bureaucrat, and is quite familiar with complex rules systems as a result. But don't think that it's a "just add water" scenario.

I confess that I hadn't really been following TNH's web presence too assiduously, but my impressions from intermittently reading her comments at Making Light/Electrolicious and elsewhere, were very positive; she always seemed pretty sensible, rational, and even-keeled.
Really? This is why you shouldn't rely on hearsay. I was in the Emergeny Room in Park Slope, Brooklyn earlier this year. I was immediately seen by a nurse. When it was evident that I wasn't suffering from something life threatening, I was led to a wait area and given my own reclinable barca lounger and a glass of water. A nurse then proceeded to check on me every 20 minutes or so and explain what was going on. She then offered me her own book when she saw that I had nothing to occupy myself. Every person I saw come in while I sat there was treated with respect and got attention. When I was done and it was time to leave the nurse who had been checking on me came over and said goodbye and wished me well. When I got the bill there was a survey inside asking me questions about the service. There ya go.

And like you're somehow not trouble. You're talking about getting parts of your head removed. You really think drawing the line on having your cock split down the middle is going to make you Ward Cleaver?
Really? Where is that being said? Why do the telecoms deserve this sort of special protection? Where does Congress stand up for our rights?
But this is really off the subject. Obama is not arguing that Congress has some sort of duty to stop this litigation because it's slow and expensive. That may make it distasteful to you, but I don't see the merit in that argument in itself. He's saying that we can still investigate later, but that makes the assumption that he'll be elected, and that he'll follow through. I have serious doubts about the second, and the first, well, that's not a good assumption to base this sort of decision on.
really? You think that maybe the vitriol being directed toward this woman might have something to do with it? Lord knows that if one published a thesis work claiming that sex surrogacy was a mighty fine thing, the likes of folk in this thread would tear the author a new one. You have noticed the level of hostility toward Catherine in this thread, have you not?
Really? You could rent the child a decent apartment for that here in Seattle. How are there not people lining up to be child carers on every corner? Thank god I never had kids; I have no idea where a chunk of money like that would come from every month. We'd be eating ramen and picking through the garbage for new shoes. (Plus they're stinky. Kids, not the garbage shoes. Well, yes, those too.)

stbalbach: One thing I've noticed about people on SSRI's is a certain "flatness". They handle trauma really well never letting terrible things get them down, they don't seem down on otherwise down days (rainy cold monday, day after a terrible event, etc..)
Really? I've been on an SSRI for over 10 years, and that is completely, utterly untrue of my life experience. Maybe it's a "you have to live it" thing.
really? all they did was rehash a couple of lines from other places. this sounds like the journo made one or two phonecalls and hacked this piece out in under an hour. what self-respecting reporter lets a subject off with a simple "I don't want to talk about the reasons" and doesn't bother publishing? is this in the end a story about a scorned lover abusing her powers to get even?
really?
Really. Again, granted: it's short and lacks the detail and bite that would be satisfying to those of us who are down in the mud and interested in a real treatment of the details. But it also didn't badly bungle what details it did cover, and was at least a decent sketch of some of what was at the heart of the conflict.

It is more healthy than butter, and if you can't taste the difference on toast or something, or are willing to deal with the difference it's a healthy decision. Just because it's a reminder that people are not living in a 19th century agrarian society doesn't mean it's actually *bad*.

Just hope the engine doesn't blow up before the finish line, it's never really been tested at this speed. Hey, where is the finish line, anyway? All of a sudden the track curves left and China realizes its not in a drag race at all, it's an endurance race.

really? Have you driven in Brooklyn? Or, more importantly, Queens? I've driven a cube truck and a car in most of NYC, not just Manhattan. I also walk around most of it. And again, I disagree. I can point specifically to 4th Ave and 3rd Ave, which have bike lanes, in Brooklyn. I cross 4th Ave every morning to get to the subway. There are ALWAYS cabs, trucks and cars barreling through red lights at 50 mph. My experience has been that drivers are MORE aggressive due to pedestrians and other traffic as well as lax enforcement of traffic laws by police. Bikers included. I was nearly run over by a biker today on Prince/Broadway who was speeding to get through a yellow light and was 20 feet from the intersection when the light turned red and continued speeding right across Broadway. He was actively attempting to beat both the pedestrian traffic that was starting to move across Prince and the car traffic that was starting to move down Broadway. Complete obnoxious move.

If the 'supply' of decent, healthier (note use of the comparative) restaurants/food is a 35 bus/subway/car ride away and the KFC is a two minute walk down the block, is that really demand or is it necessity?
Really? I was surprised when I moved here at how low-quality even a fair chunk of the stuff at the farmer's markets was,
The farmer's market I go to here (Plummer's Park on Mondays) may be slightly below the quality of the New York City greenmarkets, but they make up for it in prices. Same with Trader Joe's, which I find remarkable for the price (again, NYC may have warped me). But the best quality/price ratio I've found in L.A. in my short time here are the Asian markets -- I like the Bangkok Market on Melrose, although I haven't tried many others. Really pretty bok choy, herbs, hot peppers and loads of other stuff that clearly has a high turnover (the hot peppers I bought at Ralph's were half-rotten on the insides). Cheap, too. Plus, you can buy a bag of fresh rice noodles (!) that could feed a family for 2.50.

One thing I wonder about: do teenagers really not have jobs these days, typically? Once I hit the age where I could work, my modest allowance stopped...if I wanted money, I had to earn it.

Anyway, this is a poorly-written article that touches on some important points. The first is that this "counterculture" movement isn't really counter to anything, or have any agenda whatsoever. The hippies and the punks and the b-boys (and possibly even the ravers) all had some kind of social change associated with them. The modern iteration of hipsterism does not; its precepts are unapologetically self-referential and judged relative to other members of the scene.
Second, this generation of kids really has bought into consumerism whole hog. The idea that one can ally oneself with an ideal or a group simply by buying the right things (and that near-misses to the right things are the least cool of all) is something that boggles my mind.
Third, it's really easy to make fun of them.

Really? I thought hipsters liked indie rock. Did I miss something?
It's not as simple as "liking indie rock". Hipster musical taste is also affected by the endless cycle of constant taste-altering and ironic distance; because the same bands that were cool and underground last week may be verboten this week, I think it's a bit much to claim that serious hipsters really "like" any of this stuff. They aren't into music, they're into being seen as into music. This is reflected in their disaffected stance: why bother to show open, non-ironic enthusiasm for anything, since it will inevitably turn out to be "uncool" sooner or later?
on preview: if earnestness is really "not a bad thing any more", that's wonderful news... though I still dislike the extra level of meta-irony and detachment that seems to come along with it. "Taking sarcasm so far that it's become authentic again" is still sarcasm.

And this, really, is why liberals lose elections. Because the guy on the family farm (or who has lost his family farm and now works for minimum wage at Wal*Mart) looks at this and looks at how his taxes subsidize it, directly or through student aid, and sees all intellectual endeavor as a high-falutin' sham that quickly degenerates into a guy who desperately needs a haircut jumping around showing his ass, his big words forgotten as he screams obscenities and grunts like an animal.
Really? This is why liberals lose elections? I'm at a loss here. I haven't really been aware of a plethora of YouTube videos of university faculty losing their marbles. Also, while a lot of conservative politicians work the anti-intellectual angle, sure, a lot of hardcore Democrats come out of a blue collar background, e.g., labor unions. They might look at a college debate team with the same disregard as the family farmer you describe (although there's no reason to think they wouldn't admire it), but that doesn't mean they'd look at a YouTube video of Professor Moon here and think to themselves, "That's it - I'm voting Republican!"

Really? Because I kept seeing major mistakes made by athletes from other countries, with little or no apparent deductions from the score. The inconsistency between scores was the biggest complaint any of the commentators had with the whole shebang. Inferior routines were scored higher than superior ones. In the vault finals for example, no way should a woman who lands on her knees score high enough to medal. No friggin' way. But it happened, while gymnasts who stuck (or nearly stuck) the landings were out of the running. It wasn't just with the Americans. It was with quite a few competitors. Sure, there's a home team bias, but this sort of screwed-up judging was not present in the diving, it's specific to the gymnastics. There will quite likely be some major complaints about the scoring system. Hopefully enough to get someone at the IOC to revise the current system enough to prevent a similar round of complaints happening again in 2012.

Is there really a world where accusations of wrongdoing are simply completely ignored? I'm beginning to doubt these peculiar extra-planetary explorations of yours.

Really? In a democracy, a majority of people can't vote to do whatever they like to preserve what they feel to be an optimal society and prevent what they feel to be certain disaster in a future dominated by "medical ethics boards"?
Yes this kind of thing has been done before, A LOT. But are people really missing the fantastic timing that Fillion and the direction has in this?
Really? That's the last anyone would describe my personality and I found it hilarious. Porn is incredibly misogynistic and the short kind of exposes and plays with that. It's wholly self-aware... god... I'm kind of speechless.
really? I know he hasn't done a lot of great stuff lately. And I know "Harrison's better than McCartney" is perennial ammunition in any good "hipper than thou" arsenal.
really? This is the guy who wrote "Hey, Jude" and "Let it Be." Harrison's best song doesn't come within a mile of either of those. Lennon got close, but I don't think he ever equaled them either. I'm just talking about music here, not hippness or geopolitics or what silly videos they made in the 80s. And musically, if those were the only two songs Paul ever wrote, he'd still be remembered hundreds of years from now. And rightly so.
Really? I would have thought that Adam Smith would be very happy to see the challenge Farmer's Markets and other direct marketing techniques brought to the monopolies of food wholesalers - as far as I know he was very anti-monopoly and liked competition.

I think the Republicans are going to have a really tough time because facts, reasoning and even emotional arguments are all ringing false for them. Just today:

We are apes. We can't really help what messages pass between our emotional center and our monkey/ape brains - and it will show on our faces.
It's too important, in terms of social evolution, for other monkeys to know how we REALLY feel. You can never really fool the other monkeys.

Really? People have also used the concept of democracy as a justification and motivator for both self-sacrifice in conflict (such as war) and murder. I suppose democracy hurts us, too. Let's not baby and bathwater this thing. The thing itself - belief in an afterlife - is not a harmful concept.
Really? And how did "ennui" escape from the dreaded "pretentious" label, anyway?
Really? I've never bought into the 'elitist' stuff. I think there are a lot of people who are simply single issue voters or deeply partisan and will grasp for anything negative to say about an opposing candidate. Elitism seems more like a convenient attack rather than a substantive concern for most people. The same people critiquing Obama's elitism and falling over themselves for Palin's folksy charm would be just as passionate about an educated, eloquent, intellectual candidate that supported all their issues.
Really? I've never bought into the 'elitist' stuff.
Really? Among those I know who are devoutly religious, the topic almost never comes up. They seem to know innately that excessive talk about god or their beliefs goes a long way to cheapening what they hold dear. They also don't have Jesus-fish on the bumpers of their cars, or display "Christian flags," or watch religious TV or listen to religious talk radio. The only people who do these things, in my personal experience, are people who are insecure in their faiths and seem to have something to prove -- they have all the outward trappings of 'religious cred' but none of the inner conviction.
Really? I have to? Dammit.)

Really? After all, they aren't driving a band. They aren't backing up rappers. They're beatboxing as a solo art, and they are, you could almost certainly say, addressing a somewhat *limited-attention-span* audience. The purpose of their beatboxing, then, really has little to do with the purpose of a drummer in a band. So, I think perhaps your metric is not necessarily the best one to use when judging what these girls are doing. The quick-change aspect of it seems to be part of the overall aesthetic.

She seemed like she was trying to deny it like there was some gray area there or something. There wasn't the slightest hint of indignation.

"It’s really what Team America is as well: taking an extremist on this side and an extremist on that side. Michael Moore being an extremist is just as bad, you know, as Donald Rumsfeld. It’s like they’re the same person.

Well, look--as a Christian, let me state emphatically, that I really, really wish you would stop holding back. There's no point in us not being honest with each other. Maybe from time to time when it's relevant you could at least allude to your displeasure with religion. I mean, I know you don't want to make anyone uncomfortable, but we could handle a little honest disagreement. Really, don't keep it all in. Maybe someday, in some far off distant future, someone will just come right out with it and write a book. Since you all are so timid about expressing your disagreement, I'm sure it'll have a title like "Let's Have Tea Together and Talk About This God Thing, Shall We?" or "May I Gently Suggest That Perhaps Your Beliefs Are Unfounded?" When that time comes and you all start to speak up, I will welcome the dialogue that follows.
Smed: I think killing Newt and Hicks was a good dramatic choice. I think the exposition was really lousy. Like “oh, um, they died. And Ripley has an alien in her. And there’s an alien on the ship, and stuff.”

Because there's an awful lot of poverty in the suburb, more than a little unemployment - especially among younger adults and teens - and the suburbs & exurbs are practically synonymous, in my eyes, with alienation.

Nor did Obama "run to the center" at any time. He's pretty liberal. He ran on the most liberal democratic platform since, well since ever. Its not like we snuck in by playing Republican-lite. Obama ran on an "end the war in Iraq" plank.

My favorite "hey, we're going to just be straight up racist, folks" moment is mentioned in the "people" link - Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. Where the writer just said "fuck it 'chall."“Everyone felt very strongly that we needed a white character or a part-white, part-Indian character to carry a contemporary white audience through this project,” Daniel Giat, the writer who adapted the book for HBO Films, told a group of television writers earlier this year.Of course I think that is ridiculous and outrageous. But really if I was white, I'd be way more pissed! Excuse you! I can recognize and identify with the struggles, failures and triumphs of other human beings, you jackass! I bet M.

I ain’t gonna…but I could--if I wanted! Now where’s my damn jug a Diet Pepsi?” Where the saintly Julia Child sought to raise expectations, to enlighten us, make us better--teach us--and in fact, did, Rachael uses her strange and terrible powers to narcotize her public with her hypnotic mantra of Yummo and Evoo and Sammys. “You’re doing just fine.

That's really disgusting. Just because people didn't live in a country with the same borders doesn't mean they didn't exist. If someone lived in the Ottoman empire, or Jordan, or whatever getting kicked out of your home and then having your family live in refugee camps for 60 years wouldn't suck any less because of it.

While I can agree that the videos may not be the end-all-be-all of the matter (there's a lot of witness testimony too), knocking them because they're 'grainy' strikes me as a heaping bowl of CYA.

Really? Cause from the article, it sounds more like typical bureaucratic inflexibility: anything not announced in the syllabus requires additional permission for certain kinds of content. Ridiculous, but I see no evidence this is political, just stupid. Schools do a ton of stuff like this, partly out of deathly fear of being sued. The article about the Gore film seems to validate this, as again they were worried about parental reaction in showing a "biased" point of view. Nothing indicates that the administrators themselves have a problem with it, other than the pathological fear of controversy that such groups always have.

Yea, really. Most of the bios I deal with, the people look like in these DoD leader pics. That's the standard pose - centered, up close. Even the ones showing the full upper body and hands are fairly rare. And it only gets more standardized the lower you get on the org chart - at the DAS (Deputy Assistant Secretary) level, it's pretty much just that standardized pose in front of a flag.

I'm sure there's a market for Golden and Silver Age comics, and probably a decent market for comics from the 80's (does that era have an "age" yet?) but I have a hard time believing that there's much of an after market for anything published after '95 or so. But, of course, comics were better in my day, get off my lawn, you damned kids, etc.

What really gets me is if she doesn't feel appreciated enough and divorces him, she gets child support *and* alimony, since clearly she's proven she can't take care of herself via a job.

I will take seriously complaints from any stay at home mom who has spent at least six months supporting the family themselves.

Yes, I started driving around then and among the small number of FM stations I could count on in my car I found I favored classic rock over pop, which was pretty sugary, sequenced stuff in my neck of the woods. I don't enjoy much metal, and though I do really like some hip-hop I didn't have much awareness of the good stuff being made at the time.

Really? I didn't get that at all. I think the "there's no rhyme or reason to the Joker" angle is just a call back to him being the polar opposite of the "all structure and regimen" Batman. Then again, after the first movie changed Batman from a terrorist who trained in the Middle East to a ninja who trained with a Japanese guy in Tibet, anything's possible.

But for the prices they're offering, those are surprisingly good designs.

really? Rich fat Americans who want cheap Walmart prices for all the crap we need- cheap crap made overseas by near-slave labor. What do we make/manufacture in this country? Our economy is based on credit, on the promise/buying and selling of "debt". But when there are no jobs, there are no masses to put their money in the kitty, you can have all the tax cuts and lowest-in-history interest rates, and it really doesn't mean squat. Those with the wealth want lower taxes. How does that help someone without a job? The rich elite want lower interest rates on mortgages, how does that help someone without a job? The crap that we buy from overseas is junk- not meant to last long, so when it breaks we have to buy it again. The average television set isn't worth repairing when it breaks, it's more cost effective to throw away and buy another. What's wrong with that picture. We need to stop participating in the selling of our markets overseas. We need to demand high quality and American made so our people have WORK. All the tax cuts and interest rate cuts and mortgage rate cuts in the world don't help if no one has a job where they can make money!

Yes, really. Our infrastructure is falling apart. Remember that ridge collapse in Minnesota? The broken levees in New Orleans? The broken levees in Florida that threaten the Okefenokee Swamp and thus the ecology of the entire state?
Not really. I just think in most cases they made a silly choice, paying hundreds for an education when the country is full of excellent state schools for 3 or 4 grand a year.
Really? 3 or 4 grand a year?? Where would that be? Not in my state, that's for sure. Look, I"m not fond of the idea of forgiving debt but rather like the idea of making college cheaper, and providing more alternative training to those who don't want a bachelor's but rather a vocation. But the idea that forgiving debts makes its supporters elitists is foolish; so is the idea that this would make grads deadbeats. If it's good enough for bankers, it's good enough for our kids--which is not a reason to do it but a reason to not insult the idea of at least discussing it.
Really? 3 or 4 grand a year?? Where would that be? Not in my state, that's for sure.

Over the last decade or so, my fiction:non-fiction ratio has inverted itself such that I now find myself reading mostly non-fiction, and it's not something I would brag about at all--I feel vaguely lazy and guilty for not making myself take the time to read more fiction and expose myself to more/new authors. I become somewhat apathetic about new novels and novelists, and I'm not sure why. It's no badge of honor.
Come on. I agree with pretty much everything being said about Jindal and Republicans here, but I still think the FPP was way too editorialized.

Really? Man. We hiked the Appalachians, we canoed the entire Flint River (which rose about 12 feet one night one night... that was an adventure, I can tell you), we went camping at least one weekend a month, we learned how to sail, and how to build fires, and built log cabins at the GS Summer Camp that are still standing. And by built, I mean we cut down the trees with hand axes and saws, stripped the bark, cut notches and grooves and fit them together...built log cabins. It was insanely hard work, but we had a blast. (Plus, we were some buff little girls, I tell you what.) And our Senior year, we all sailed a 65' Pilothouse Cutter from Tampa Bay to the Bahamas and back again, spending the better part of a summer dancing, tanning, drinking things with umbrellas in, and surreptitiously working on our Ganja badge.

That I had a teacher in high school who used to give me shit about not couching all subjective beliefs in a language that laid absolutely fucking naked the fact that they were subjective beliefs is a fact. That she was too stupid to teach high school is just my opinion.
Both of these posts are responding to a (seemingly quite real) surge of negativity in Internet comments (though how new it is is not really important). But I don't think either of them get it.
Really? On the contrary, our opinions are usually opinions about what is real. Therefore, we offer them as statements about objective fact. We talk about our opinions (often) because we think they're true. This is not 2nd grade; we don't have to say "I think this movie is bad" when we think "This movie is bad." Similarly, an Internet project that was made by someone may be actually bad, and if you think so, you should say so. Use clear language. "FAIL" passes.

Really? If anything, I'd think bringing biology into it would just muddy the waters. I'd think the origins of sex would've been a violent attack, but I suspect that we evolved past that far back in the tree of life, at the very least when we developed pack behaviors. Sure we've got lizard wiring underneath that, but it's a pretty complex set of motivations now. I mean, there's got to be some reason why we can determine a difference between sex and rape at all now right?
Really? This seems like people who say about gay people they "have nothing about gays... as long they don't do their gay things in public, ick, that'd be disgusting!"
No, really, when I say "in private", it actually means you shouldn't let your shamans fuck with politics and laws: there's people out there, you know, who have an alternate and altogether decently sound set of values and morals and it'd be nice, for a change, not to see those stepped upon as usual.
Really? No better references than Crichton yet? I'm sorry, but "they could bring back dinosaurs, which are big and scary" was trite low-hanging fruit. The real applicable science fiction plot here is "they could bring back dinosaurs, which which are mostly small and taste like chicken".

In fact, I cannot watch shows I otherwise enjoy if they have a laugh track; 'Sports Night' in syndication added a laugh track, which made it unbearable.

Also, there have been games that have come out that could be rated artistically, but certainly didn't garner huge sales.

Maybe this is just an opinion so go ahead and cut & paste some more, you'll totally change my mind.

And seriously, the ivory tower criticisms of hip-hop are tiresome. I'm glad you've spent your life playing music, but music is played for people to listen to, and it seems that a lot of people like hip-hop. You really think there's nothing of value there, just because the vocalist isn't singing melody? You're right - there are basically two components to any kind of music: pitch and rhythm. Hip-hop is very big on the rhythm part. I'd love to hear your playing to see what kind of rhythm you've got.

Really? I interpreted it in the exact opposite way. You seem to think it's misogynist but I think it clearly reads misandrist. I think the joke relies on the notion that in our cultural picture of men makes it believable that men would naturally be drawn to women without rights, and of course they'd come running for the chance to treat women as if they were all nothing fuckholes that you put back in storage when you don't need 'em?
It is really quite disheartening that the fact that my some of my fellow posters would even need to question weather this is a valid representation of men.

I don't really think it's that simple. First, I doubt these kids were confining themselves to using solely the word "gay" as a bullying tactic. Second, even if this was the only verbal taunt used - and I really doubt it - this is usually followed by the typical bullying MO of ostracizing, shoving, vandalism of personal effects and so forth. So whatever meaning the word "gay" has in the outside world, it carries a much different meaning within school when the label brings with it that kind of abuse.
Really? That's fucked up.
It doesn't really bother me. If a kid's sexual identity is still forming, then this kind of language is particularly devastating, because there's no way to defend oneself against it with confidence.

Really? What is the probability the me - yes ME - will catch it? And everyone I know? It sounds like you're saying p=1.0 or at least p=.9 I'm going to be calling in sick from this. Although I do not doubt that many, many more people will catch this, I'm not thinking I'm going to be one of them, nor any of my friends. Even though there are suspected cases in my city and confirmed cases within 75 miles. This isn't an airborne space virus that is spread in the wind. It is the flu -- a nasty variant to be sure - but still the flu. You have to come in close contact with a person with the flu (or something they coughed on, etc) in order to get the flu.

Really? I mean, you've counted?
Turned out that the proportions were closer to 5-10% than the 30% I thought. In my experience, if you work closely with women professionally, you tend to vastly overestimate the total number of women in your field. And, particularly in the Internet industry, we fetishize our tolerance to such an extent that it's very, very easy to not really understand just how BoyZone our industry is. Not can be: is.

I thought it was one of the more cute and fun parts of the Dossier, which all in all was a mix of awesome bits, average bits, and bits that just seem like missed oportunities for really awesome comics (the LoEG vs Les Hommes Mysterieux reading like an outline for a really awesome six parter)

I mean, everybody likes to think that they were the cool kid whose older brother snuck them in to see Husker Du or Evol-era Sonic Youth shows, but that's just the myth they've built for themselves in the intervening decade(s). I mean, 99.999% of 11-year-olds have always had shitty musical taste. Big fucking deal. By the time they're in high school or college, most of them are going to be listening to better music. The rest of them will be perfectly happy singing along to "Cheeseburger in Paradise" while their frat brothers do keg stands. Get off your high horse.
Really? Being a role model for kids and refuting "allegations" that you're gay as something to be ashamed of? That's more LEGIT than wearing "promise rings?"

Well, the Americans have only really discovered texting in these last few years, so it's all very new and strange to them. Why is it catching on here so late? No idea.

REALLY? Does your doctor get you to sign a waiver before he treats you? Then he told me that my 'general health' was affected by spinal subluxations. I asked him what he meant by 'general health' and he just started bullshitting. Then I asked him if he was a medical doctor. That was pretty funny. I asked him what other disciplines the college he studied at taught. That was even funnier. By then I had him on the run. I left his office about an hour later and I don't think he had ever been so glad to see someone leave.

Really? You would think that anti-GM advocated would prefer this. There's no chance of 'contamination' of the outside world with these GM plants if they can only reproduce for a few generations.
I will keep doing it, however, because I'm a freeloader who is both rude and anti-social, so I really don't see any impetus for me to change.

You squeeze all the juice out of a bag of sauerkraut, mix in some chopped onion and a little garlic and an egg, plus a bit of flour (think potato pancakes) and a cup or more of totally shredded to hell ham (Mom takes all the bits off of any holiday ham and puts them in the food processor til they are very very fine), mix it up, make it into golfball-sized or a little bit smaller balls, roll it in breadcrumbs and fry the hell out of them. Sprinkle white vinegar on top when you're done.

Really? It took me two clicks to get to a page giving me the basic technical specs on their computers, which is pretty much what you have to do if you go the main Dell page. I'm also not sure why I should be too outraged that a company produced a website to market themselves to a group that clearly exists. Young women who want a cute, light laptop? These people do exist, and they want to buy a laptop that has some cute colors, and use it shop for shoes. They don't care about technical specs. Not all women are like this, but there clearly are women like this, and there's nothing wrong with the fact that they exist.

really? Obviously it's a lot cheaper to "print" a Kindle book than a real book - but is this so? I've read otherwise. The material cost in books is marginal, maybe a couple bucks for a $25 book goes into paper and ink. The majority of it is labor. The $10 Kindle books on Amazon are being sold at a loss (so I hear) and eventually the prices will rise (already happening with some titles). If this is so, about the only thing the Kindle has over the book is an easy way to make pirate copies.

Really? The 10s are the only major outlier, and given that movies were basically a new form, it's not surprising they were composed unusually by contemporary standards. And given that all of the 1960s-2000s have basically identical values, nobody has actually made a rational judgement about the increase in movie length based on their personal experience of movies. Except for cranky WW2 vets, they are correct in saying so.

What really blows me away is how someone would be foolhardy enough to actually go traveling somewhere like the States relying on a little electronic gizmo like that instead of taking some English classes.
Really? Do you believe you should take classes in another language before you can visit a country where it is dominant? Perhaps this explains why so few Americans have passports.
Really? You're assuming you're not dealing with morons here. Any sort of conspiracy about that event would need to answer for: (a) the girl willing to dangle without a rope (b) the officer willing to risk getting pulled down (c) that the Chinese police propaganda unit are competent enough to pull it off. Particularly that last one. You heard of the creepy JingJing and ChaCha? That was the best propaganda the police had created to date.

Really? You saw pictures of naked pyramids and just assumed that was as far as they took it? I was shocked/dismayed/outraged then, but I wasn't naive enough to assume that they took them off the pyramid and re-clothed them and sent them back to their cells. This isn't "new rape allegations" it's "guess what there are pictures of the rapes too".
Really? How about those kids from towns all over America where the military is pretty much the only decent job you can get? Or the kids who maybe didn't do well enough to qualify for scholarships, and need a way to pay for school? Or even the people already in the military when this bullshit war started, who decided they didn't make the decision to invade, but they're going to do their best to help re-build Iraq, as the least they could do? I know it's tempting to oversimplify and make blanket judgements but it doesn't seem entirely accurate.
Really? Maybe to the rest of the world, we seemed that way. Maybe I'm just being cynical, but we've always been a country that gets involved in shit it shouldn't for purely political reasons.

Hm, well, it was the first sequel to a subversive masterwork and that jackass shit-for-brains Cameron took the opportunity to take the ONLY significant female cinema SF lead character (really, the ONLY ONE at the time) and undercut her direct, ungendered capability - her asskickingness, right - by GENDERING THE FUCK out of it and in fact magically transforming it into a reflection of PURE MISOGYNY.
Really? I hate Rambo, I hate Red Dawn, I basically hate American action movies of the 1980s, and the fact that Cameron (and as I have learned here, Walter Hill) took this amazing and perfect film's concept and turned it into some sort of fucked-up proxy-battle cheeerleading gun porn with the wimmin-hatin' and the gender-determinacy and shit: well sir, I wish to kill, and kill, and keep killing until the movie is burned from our consciousness. It's the only way to be sure.

I don't know, almost told from a viewpoint that comes off as very medieval to me? In any case, I re-read those books probably once a year just for the sheer fun and fluff of them - they are so fast, so easy, to read. Are they sophisticated? No. But they're good clean fun as far as I'm concerned. Godspeed, sir.

Really? You think being accurate is treating people like morons? To say that no one wants to treat patients with personality disorders is an amazingly broad generalization based on bad information. Yet there are many who believe it and he is perpetuating that. Parroting it doesn't do anyone any good and discourages people from getting help. I think he simply doesn't know better, considering the mistakes in the rest of the comic.

really? Not competitive at all? So let's say the train takes 3 hours (which is longer apparently than it is planned to be). I could take SWA out of SFO .. but that costs significantly more than San Jose. And it's more than an hour (if I catch a Caltrain bullet) to get to SJ for me. And I need to be at the airport an hour early (so the TSA tells me). The flight to LA takes .. 90 minutes? Bit less maybe. LAX isn't near downtown, so I'll need to take some transit to get there (or wherever I'm going).
So the point is that HSR goes from city center to center. Airports of any size aren't generally speaking really in "city center". So the "travel time" using rail like this vs flying is very different even if, technically, the train would take longer than flying.

Really? I always thought Netscape charged, but I didn't care because I was at a university and thus qualified for the free for education version. This 1998 CNet article reports that Netscape recently stopped charging for the browsers, making the standard editions of Communicator and Navigator free, which seems to imply that prior to that article they did charge. Here's a copy of the press release stating thye will no longer carge for the browsers. So, was the browser free, or not? Sounds like it was not, which is what I remembered about it. It was big news, and signaled the beginning of the end for Netscape (as if NN 4.x hadn't done enough damage already)

Really? Then that would be the.... entire American story? The story of humanity? Is someone here commenting from a Communist nation? Commerce is everywhere. If not for commerce, one might argue the little girl would be dead a long time ago. Making a big fuss over the evil of marketing a la Bill Hicks isn't really that cynical, but it is facile and kind of pathetic. It makes me wonder what the hell happened to the complainant's sense of agency and self-worth. I mean, unless you're eating home-grown beets in your cave wearing a hide thong, or living a nice pirate/freegan/mooch lifestyle, you're still complicit and continuing to buy shit, so where's the beef?

Really? Is there a particular reason why douthat would would reference 17th century theologians other then to show off? In fact, the refrece dosn't even make much sense, because the latitudinarians believed in conforming to church practices but that church organization wasn't that important (according to wikipedia). So wouldn't a latitudinarian view of copyright state that we should not copy things, but that copyright rules are themselves not very important. In that case, why would a copyright latitudinarian care about extension?

Really? These made me almost physically ill. The only thing that has ever engendered a similar feeling was a book of crime scene photos I looked at once.

Not sure if this is sarcastic or not. If it is, bravo I guess? If not, it's a pretty weird sentiment. One of the neat things about the sciences is that there are some pretty objective measures of if one can, er, hang or not. They vary from discipline to discipline, of course, but they're all pretty good at making a mockery of arbitrary, standardized metrics like, er, an elementary school math competition. "Can you handle a hostile social atmosphere" is not a question that any scientist, engineer (or anyone, really) should ever have to answer.

Really? To me, the review hits that perfect neo-ironic (or something) note - you know it, surely: "I mean it, honest, well, unless I don't, ha, I mean, come on, how could I mean that, unless, of course, you think I don't mean it, in which case I mean it, definitely, for sure, absolutely."

You're going to take an entire paragraph of gibberish, including that preceding phrase, to basically say: "Race is very important in 'The Wire,' but you can also ignore it very easily because it's so much a part of the mental landscape. Ignoring race happens a lot in modern times, especially in criticism, where it's usually purposeful."
Really? There were things I liked about the movie, but the trailer was utterly pedestrian. As far as Worst Trailer Ever goes, I'd like to nominate this gem, which played in front of every movie I saw for approximately eighteen months in 1999.

Back off, Total Information Awareness.)
Also, is it really ethical to poison - or threaten to poison - drug addicts?

really? Man I'm sorry, mushrooms sauteed in olive oil with garlic, lemon juice and white wine, one of my favorite foods in the world. Mushrooms keep their own flavor while absorbing other flavors better than any other food I can think of, plus they're a weird thing to eat and that's always fun.

really? You make an excellent point, but this memorial seems to me to be a really good example of what you're advocating. OK, so it's not an 18th-century memorial in every particular, but it would be weird to ape precisely the memorializing style of a specific historical era that had nothing to do with the incident in question. This is quiet, reticent and peaceful too. It's hardly an "art piece" in any kind of objectionable way.

I personally doubt that hardware costs are a factor. Most games, including Crysis, ship for a wide range of systems, and 3D graphics integrated graphics chips are shipping standard on laptops these days. Throwing money at a gaming system just buys bragging rights and possibly a prettier experience.

Bottom line, I don't see any reason to bother with vimeo when you have Youtube - given the difference in quality. The difference in quality between vimeo and youtube is not great enough, and frankly I don't see how that would change in the future... except youtube getting better. Vimeo does not have a viable business model. They will die.

He (and all his people) have to try and turn around years and years of malignant, ignorant, destructive policies. He has a democratic majority, but how many does he have solidly in his camp? 30? The democrats (for as long as I can remember) have been a fractious, unorganized mess of a party and even in the majority still cater to Republicans and conservatism. So Obama has to build support and get momentum going his way. If he does the Bush-Cheney Cabal routine, the democrats will bolt, the right will erupt and someone may try to take a shot at him. Better to take time to get all the pieces in place so you can make those changes stick. It was shown during the campaign that Obama plays a long game, and it's a bit early to be declaring him a failure or a turncoat.

I see the same shift happening in churches as it is happening in society - recognizing that there is no biological or Biblical prescriptive against women in leadership roles, save those made by historical misogynists.

Maybe I'm just weird, but I read PL and had hairs standing up on the back of my neck. It's got a very cinematic sweep to it.

It just seems so specific, like if someone made a record mocking new wave cliches in 1982 and targeted it specifically at, I don't know, A-ha or something.

Oh man, I love theme weddings. Weddings that make up their own rules usually do a good job capturing who the bride and groom really are as a couple.
Still, I have to draw the line at making the bridal party wear or do anything that would make them feel uncomfortable. The bride and groom are free to wear whatever they want, but the bridesmaids and groomsmen don't really have any say. It's cool to get married as Fred and Wilma, but it's not cool to force the best man to dress up as Barney. The people in the bridal party aren't just window dressing and it's important that their comfort is given consideration.

No, actually, not really - I've been around long enough to know what happens around here in these kinds of posts.
But does Catholic doctrine really argue against science-based sex education? Still? Friends of mine who went to Catholic schools (though not Catholic themselves) were generally given pretty decent sex ed, if I recall, not the nonsense-based "abstinence" variety so favored by many social and religious conservatives.

"I don't recall all this fuss when Michael Chabon wrote an alternate history/detective novel (which was damn good). Genres are a nice construct for sorting books in stores but by this time critics should really know better."

Really? Who works at the gas station? Who is the janitor at your school? Who is checking you out of the grocery store?
Really? So, my understanding of your view is that, because you're offended by his actions, his psychology is irrelevant. If he were a thief instead of a murderer, would that make a difference, and would you then consider his psychological issues relevant? Just diagnosing someone doesn't absolve them of anything, incidentally.

Really? That's pretty obnoxious. The ATM network breaks out terminal fees from the actual withdrawn amount; it's totally possible for a bank to refund ATM fees without requiring you to send in receipts. (My bank does this; if the terminal fee is $1, I get a $1 credit a few days after the withdrawal; if it's $2.50 like it is for some rapacious airport ATMs, I get $2.50.)

And it wasn't difficult; click "Astro Zombie", type "blame", hit "search", and voila, first page of results.

And what about places like, say, Germany, Japan, the UK, Italy, Australia? Surely there are large numbers of people from there who want us out, but is it really a majority opinion, and moreover a pressing one? I would actually bet that a fair majority of people from such places don't really care all that much one way or the other.

Thanks for the post. The great thing about Fishing With John is that re-watching it with the commentary is really like getting six totally new episodes. If you're a fan at all, pick up the DVDs for that reason alone.
really? For me it was the first episode. As Lurie and Jarmusch amble out of their hotel rooms at some ridiculous hour of the morning to go shark fishing, and for no reason the narrator says, in perfect deadpan, "They wake up, covered in sores and boners."
really? I tried to redefine "socialism" into something positive in this thread? *reads scrollback* *scratches head*)

Yes, really. Hatred is an emotional reaction to someone or something per se, and is fundamentally different than tolerating someone's actions or sanctioning someone's behavior. Hatred of Hitler is ultimately where hatred of Germans generally starts, because hatred is self-propagating. If you need an example of that, well...

Really? I saw this show a while back and it sets your heart in a block of ice, with an extra cube leftover to hang out at the back of your throat. But let's not kid ourselves, here. There were basically no pharmeceuitcal treatments for mental illness at that time. You had straightjackets and rubber rooms and being zapped in the head and being dunked in water. And that was all you had, or were likely to have, for the rest of your life. Lobotomy came to be criticised, correctly, as being popular simply because it offered a permanent form of sedation for disturbed patients. But the alternative was not sunshine and rainbows and puppies. For some perhaps, it was occupational therapy and drugs and shriks. And for far too many it was an iron bed in a open ward with dozens of other shreiking, gibberring lunatics, no help and no hope of any. It's a debatable point whether being fully conscious of that fact is better or worse than being permanently numb to it. cf. The Willard State Suitcases.

Really? Well, whatever. Then, I get another popup advertising Michelle Malkin's new book. That, I kind of expect, but it seems a bit duplicitous to write a book called "The Culture of Corruption" with Obama's picture on it before he's even gotten us involved with one illegal war. I mean, come on, I expect better from my corruption.
really? Let's make light of torture? We executed the Japanese for doing that, but now it's t-shirt fodder for the right.
Really? "Sympathy" for Strom is hardly the same thing as "respect for her legal rights", even if pretending to think so does provide you with a sweet chance to wag your finger at other people - and the very unwillingness of so many people to distinguish between the two concepts is what causes the (very scary) problem you're describing.

Well they also have to give blanket guidelines which makes it challenging to say that you can sometimes serve steak tartar and sometimes serve steak rare and that hamburger is a bit of a gamble and you might get sick unless you cook it well-done.

Uh, it only won like a bajillion Oscars and made a star of at least one of its leads, and was probably the first horror movie a preponderance of serious critics took seriously since Hitchcock, so please, let us save our WTFs and instead hurl them from our ivory towers at the realization that not one but two Michael Bay films are included in the Criterion Collection. Although, if I recall correctly, Armageddon includes an apology/explanation for its presence somewhere in its packaging. And considering no one felt it necessary to apologize for fucking Salo, that is really saying something.

I am Facebook friends with folks I went to kindergarten with, 40+ years ago. We all grew up in very similar circumstances. It was really a homogeneous time and neighborhood. Almost everyone had two parents and lived in a brick twin or row. We all got the same semi-competent public school education. The Jewish kids went to Hebrew school, some of the Catholic kids went to CYO. It was blue collar, lower middle class, Democratic Northeast Philly.

That aside, I love the idea of urban / suburban gardening in one's yard. The house we have here in eastern WA came with a few raised box beds which we've planted with lettuce and tomatoes for a few years now. And a lot of raspberry vines which have propagated themselves. Having lived the first 30 years of my life in southern NM, where things will only grow if you beg and plead, it's pretty amazing to live someplace where plants not only grow but volunteer bits of themselves as food. Between the raspberries and the plum tree, we have lots of fruit on and off. And there is something really amazing about heading out and picking young lettuce and making a salad which was, a mere 5 minutes ago, taking in sunshine. You can nearly taste the photosynthesis as you chew.

All the Kindle prices are at least $1 less, and some are $5-7. It totals out around $50 in savings. The ones that are not available are back-catalog paperbacks, coffee table books, and very small publishers.

But surrounding her with the same old advice about weight loss, the usual skinny models, and fearmongering about fat isn't change. It's just a lie.

Really?? Maybe, just maybe, the CIA found a few physicians who thought that it might be more humanitarian (stretch your brain here) to help these interrogators some understanding as to the kind of damage they are doing to the bodies and minds of their prisoners. It may be a naive assumption on my part, certainly on the physicians' (if they had it), but I'm reminded of the first docs that stepped up to be in the execution chambers during lethal injections after California passed its law requiring their presence. Clearly a violation of the ethical code. But dammit, and IANAD, the state has condemned the men to death, and I can understand a physician wanting to make sure that the man dies without pain. There could be there some parallels to that kind of motivation there, and this group's report wouldn't exactly highlight them.
Really? Get a job at practically any big company, or at many small companies for that matter. Many of these apps specifically check for certain browsers, and don't work if you're not using something "approved" by the developer. Many use ActiveX controls, and the Firefox ActiveX plugin options don't really work that well if said ActiveX controls interact with the browser content through JavaScript. I've used two of these applications today! And they suck. Suck, suck, suck. Both are apps purchased from vendors, rather than apps built in-house. But it's not like these companies are going to pay to redevelop them just so their users can run Firefox, or switch to another product, etc, etc. Did I mention these apps suck?

I found the disconnect between how I knew of him already as a reporter and his own naivete (though I hate to use that word because it seems so...I don't know... condescending, I guess) with something happen to him personally really fascinating and somewhat understandable. In fact, I think it's necessary for a good person to have those blinders to live in this messed up world we live in.

Really?), he just uses words wrongly, such as "nitrogen producing," instead of the proper term "nitrogen fixing," which I think they teach you in middle school, right around the time you take Earth Science or do that token unit on Native Americans.
I do think it's unfair to point a finger at him for being a corn farmer though. He's producing what sells, and he's been told by various interests and informed by technology advances that corn is a sort of wonder plant. It'd be like blaming someone who assembles SUVs for the auto industry, when it's clear the problem really lies with screwed up legislation that incentivizes the wrong production.

Really? As a "take your pick type" person who's been involved in these kinds of politics, I agree that the blank slate view of gender is nowhere near universal even in queer society. But it's not a strawman, and there are people who really believe in a wholly socially constructed view of gender. I've known genderqueer/transgender people who have been just as hurt by claims that deny gender as revelatory, as they have by attempts to use gender essentialism to define and constrain them.

Watches have, in my experience, lost their utility as time-telling object because of cellphones but retain it as status signal, so the watches I do see now are either purposely ridiculous1 or are really nice.

really? The cartoon definitely has a joke -- the skeleton isn't Jewish, but "we have to get to six million somehow," meaning they'll pretend it's Jewish. No one thinks this literal scenario happens; it's representing in a ludicrous way something Holocaust deniers actually say happens: Jews distort the historical record in order to inflate the numbers of Jewish dead.
Anyway, I agree with you that it was their method of making the point that was the problem -- so much of a problem for me, in fact, that it makes no difference whether they really believe this shit or not. It's just so grotesquely callous to drag the Holocaust and the nastiest of antisemitic tropes into a dispute that was wholly unconnected to either. A relevant choice of target would be, as Slap*Happy suggests, Christianity or modern Europe. This target was chosen for some reason other than relevance to the underlying dispute.

Really? The exact opposite for me. That's a phase that every male that I've met who goes to a country with relatively few fluent foreigners goes through (for some reason, not so much with females). Sure, you grow out of it, but it's like having worn neon colored clothing in the 80's or having feathered hair in the 70's: it isn't a bad thing, just a somewhat embarrassing-in-retrospect thing.

Sure, maybe occasional one or two sentence response to entice the interviewer into asking a more in-depth question where he can lay it all out. But the greatest orator of our time does not say 'I am aware of certain “in fighting” . . .'
Really? Because I think the problem is that the idea is fundamentally stupid. It's as if someone protesting against violence went around punching people in the face. If you don't like racism then say so. As Mitrovarr said, the most common reaction won't be "Oh, I guess they're really upset about racism, let us examine our behavior". No: it's going to be is going to be "Moslems are being racist again, what a surprise."

Really? We were protesting the government torturing people. These bigots are protesting giving health care to poor people. You said: "Yeah, this is what y'all looked like to the other side during the Bush administration." Care to explain to me how it's a straw man?

Really? 'Requalified' feels kind of suspect too. And if you stop to try to work out how OVERCOMPENSATED got there you start having to try to account for the presence of that block of 3x4 tiles, which similarly doesn't work - the three letter words can't all have been there beforehand since 'ENSA' or 'ENS' or 'NSA' isn't valid, though at least that one can go via E-SATED -> COMPENSATED -> OVERCOMPENSATED or something.

really? Isn't this the same MetaFilter where we like to tee off on the sons and daughters of the rich/famous/powerful for being spoiled? Seems to me that if you're going to a state function, you should probably dress up a bit. This is how children learn to do things that they don't necessarily want to do, to not be completely spoiled. Besides, this sort of function is the perfect place to wear all black. You just really can't wear the Docs.
Really? I can think of several situations I've been in where having the door locked while the car was off was a plus. Aggressive panhandlers in parking garages are a special scary. Not to mention the times where you leave a passenger in the car to run and get something.

Really? A guy stabbing himself in the stomach during a business meeting is a typical suicide? I have a hard time believing that. Maybe there aren't a disproportionate number of suicides - maybe there are just as many suicides at this company as there are in the population at large. But doesn't the fact that workers are killing themseves and blaming it on the company deserve at least some attention?
I agree that it's a bit hasty to look at this story and read it as: 'this company is causing people to kill themselves!' However - and I'd really like to see statistics on this, although I imagine they're hard to gather - when most people kill themselves, their list of reasons, the standard litany that goes into most suicide notes, isn't usually topped by 'my workplace is impossible for me to live with.' The fact that this subset of people, though it might not be an unusually large one, is overwhelmingly upset with their working life seems to me to be a fact worth thinking over a bit.
Really? I think its a bit of a stretch to say that most windows users replace their laptop every year.
Really? I haven't seen shit like that in years. No one walks up to your Windows computer in a coffee shop and goes "ugh, look at that Windows Vista, how dclass". No, the only time we make comments like "maybe you should get a Mac" is when you ask us dumbass questions like "How do I get rid of spyware" and "I think the drivers broke my wireless network, what do I do?".
No one cares what you use. Have fun with Windows. Really. Just don't ask me to solve your problems or expect me to sympathize when you're bitching about the latest bullshit that you have to deal with. If you do, I have a license to be a smug Mac-user asshole the entire time — "What? Registry is screwed up? Gosh Windows is so terrible. Yeah I'm trying to fix it. What's your hotkey for Quicksilver? Oh... I see."

I would say yes, IF there weren't a cap on the total donation amount. If EVERY yogurt sold (or lid sent in) led to a donation to research, then great. But that's never how it works. The fine print always caps at some (for an international corporation) really small amount of money, like $2 million or such. I guess I'm one of the cynics noted in the FPP where this is concerned.

REALLY?) but I have a hard time turning down the exotic and new. So, I think most people here are "puritanical" and "anti-pleasure" since they don't eat, oh, sesos and amaebi and taramosalata enough, and they don't fish or hunt. The defensive clinging to what's on offer from MeatFarmCorp which is, in common practice, the oppositional position to veganism, is bizarre to me.

Really? Because statistically speaking multiple measures of quality of life are starting to get worse in the United States, not better. Even before overextended banks collapsed in the bubble taking the economy with it, the pace of wages against inflation was stagnating, the gap between classes was growing, larger numbers of people were getting by with contract or part-time employment, and life expectancy looks like it might start getting shorter due to crises in healthcare and nutrition. Meanwhile, our economy is burning through multiple non-renewable resources at a rapid pace.
Really? Why?
Really? I'm just not seeing it, and I think it's probably a question of upbringing, perspective, or something like that.

Really? Does every fucking town have to have high tax rates and provide lavish public services? Listen, if a curmudgeon wants to prevent little kids everywhere from going to the library, that might be villainy. But if he doesn't want to pay for a library in his one particular little town, and so he tries to convince other local voters to go along with him? That's democracy in action. As long as they're not oppressive and dangerous, towns should be allowed to conduct experiments in living. Some can be more communal, with libraries up the wazoo. Some can be composed of private enclosures and golf courses. Communities can choose which way they want to go. Immigrants can choose what kind of community they want to move to. Posh towns are not like nation-states, where discontents may have neither exit nor voice.

I remember having at least one "under construction" image on my own website. The site was indeed originally as described by burnmp3s above. Stolen images, random and not really interesting content. Now it has donated images, and actual, referenced content which generates a respectable number of hits.
Really? Damn. It's like seeing that picture of yourself from 7th grade, all awkward and dressed funny, with your hair all screwy, thinking at the time how cool you looked and how proud you were of wearing that specific shirt on picture day. Then years later you realize you looked like a moron, and now you can't get your parents to burn the evidence.
Really? When I hit that line, I stopped and did some math, and figured that $1200 is very close to what my wife and I spend on food for 2 months. Buying at the less-fancy (no carpet) grocery stores in Minneapolis.
Really? You're that riled up that I think it's insane not to react to Obama receiving the Nobel Peace Prize at this time by questioning why Obama is the one, at this time, selected to win it? Did you not react that way, and you're afraid that I think you're insane? Look, I promise I don't think you're insane, ok? I propose, in light of the context of this thread, that we all lighten up and be nice to each other. Whaddayasay?
Really? That's nice. Really, it is. My poor sad eyes might be able to handle it. However, a book does not need batteries to power it, and the content isn't DRM locked. I can give it away to whomever I want. You can call me a hoarder, a sentimentalist, an 'object worshipper' (though seriously, just because I prefer a physical thing I can hold to digital bits doesn't mean I 'worship' it), but I think I'll stick to a good old fashioned book or hundred.

Really? Had he never been to the state? It's the one place in the US with a long-standing, entrenched Spanish speaking population. Many of whom will go through great pains to explain they are not Mexican, but rather 8th generation New Mexicans with an untainted Castillian heritage. Which is weird in its own right, of course. Main point being; Spanish-speaking culture is endemic to New Mexico, not imported, and it's absolutely insane to act otherwise.
really? Because I look around and see plenty of TV shows that wouldn't have been aired on networks even 15 years ago (or if they would have been, there would have been an uproar). I see tons of adult-appropriate films and books, and fashions that have gotten progressively more revealing as time progresses. For the record, I think all of this is good or at worst neutral, but c'mon, man, Halloween's always been at least partly about kids dressing up and having fun and getting candy.

Really? So why did cotton diplomacy not work?
Really? Who was debating it? When? I'm aware that the South issued bonds backed by cotton and tried to increase demand for them by refusing to sell cotton in Europe. And I know that Gladstone and the editor of the Times (whose name escapes me at the moment) bought some of these bonds in the hope that they might obtain physical possession of the cotton and sell it. Of course, that prospect disappeared after New Orleans fell.
But I really don't know of any famous figures who urged intervention on the side of the South. The UK had both Bismarck and Napoleon III to worry about. I hardly think they were going to wage war with an industrial power their size on another continent.

What I'd be more concerned with are the philosophical issues. Sure, I can believe it's within the power of science to take the information in my preserved brain and reconstruct it either digitally or biologically. I can even accept that it would from all external appearances be the same person I was at death. But what I'd really want is continuity of consciousness. That's where the fear of death comes from, doesn't it?

Really? Isn't it obvious that what Heidegger was *trying* to do with his later work was support Nazi ideology? Using the phrase "weirdly parallel" is a bit of an understatement.

Really? It's not perfect, but it's very good, and was totally groundbreaking. If we're going to hate blockbusters just because they were popular, why not start with genuinely terrible movies like Spider Man, Iron Man, and the latest Star Trek, which has to be one of the worst films ever made.

I have to tell you, none of you seem to know much about the case you so profoundly defend, other than the announcement of a lawsuit by an individual detained by ICE for eight days. One would think after the "TSA agents took my son" hoax, a poster would be a little more careful before they went tinfoil on the gummint. A poor showing indeed.

Really? Is there a universal definition of "success" the way that there is a universal definition of "mass?" You aren't challenging yourself enough here. Ask yourself--am I doing good science when I focus on my own perceptions of what success is "defined as" in "our society?" and use my perception of what that is to form the basis for a "quality" I am measuring?
Really? How do you define income? You realize that "income" requires operationalizing too, and that it can be done in a variety of ways, don't you? Let me say this again: operational definitions are not subjective. "I defined X this way" is a FACT, which is OBJECTIVELY VERIFIABLE. "Variable," or "open to debate or change," are not the same thing as "subjective."
You don't know anything about cognitive science. You had no idea that working memory capacity could be measured. That's a basic fact that anyone who had an intro class in psychology should know. You also don't seem to be aware of the properties of correlations, like that they are unitless, which makes me doubt you've had an intro stat class. Understanding statistics is a necessary condition for understanding cognitive science. You're really opinionated for someone who doesn't have the understanding to back it up.

Yes, really. I distinctly remember it. I'd have to look up a citation to be absolutely sure, because admittedly my memory is not always reliable with stuff like this. But I'm certain this is the way my brain know it, though my brain has been wrong before when it comes to details like this.

Really? They busted up their faces? Why would they do that?" and the archeologist responds as above, how would you expect them not to quote it?
And while what the hell the ancient Europeans were actually doing with these pit certainly seems a fit subject for debate, since we're only speculating on what really happened and why, the idea that beating someone's face in until it's unrecognizable is a wee tad dehumanizing seems pretty universal to me. The significance of gestures and symbols varies a great deal among cultures, to be sure, but desecrating the body of a defeated enemy as a calculated insult is something that crops up pretty widely, and thus doesn't seem like a big stretch. It doesn't mean the theory is correct, either, but I wouldn't say it's pinning current morals onto it. I mean, we can still sympathize with Antigone's desire to see her brothers buried, can we not?
It's not a joke (well, not really).

Really? Correct me if I'm wrong, but would the whole health care thing even be on the table right now if McCain/Palin had won? I find all this wholesale condemnation somewhat disturbing. At least there's a debate about health care going on, and the chance of a positive change. Surely this is better than nothing, and surely no one thought meaningful reform would happen without a protracted and complicated struggle.

Similarly, I think there are plenty of people who want a large, powerful and efficiently run military.

Really? I haven't been involved in this racket even peripherally for a million years, but way back in the day, people producing non-fiction TV used to hire writers to do a bunch of research and interviews and write up some outlines and storyboards, all of which were then blithely tromped into unrecognizable shards by the directors (and sometimes the producers, and sometimes the network staff).

Well, first I must disclose: I'm from NYC. Jay-Z and Alicia Keys are both from NYC too. Their song really captures the essence of my hometown, for me. I, along with many New Yorkers, love this song. I assume that those of you who hate the song any strongly didn't grow up in NYC, or at least, in the same NYC that we did..
Really? People who don't dig this narcissistic wankfest of a song are just not New York enough to understand it? What a load of shit. Center of the Universe Syndrome is by far the worst thing about living in the city, and eating up these clichs is a classic symptom.

It's always been my dream to be at a film or musical performance or something that goes down in history as a legendarily controversial event, like the riot at Rite of Spring. I was really hoping that there'd be some crazy reaction when I saw Lars von Trier's Antichrist recently, but besides some shocked gasps (including my own), nothing of note happened. I want to be somewhere where there's a major cultural upheaval going on, where people are passionate and not just consumers or fans. But alas, people are too passive.

Touche. But my point is really that you could say the same thing about any so-called mismanaged city anywhere. They are generally speaking run by idiots. They are also generally speaking full of people in denial about how bad it is there. This is not a unique-to-San-Francisco phenomenon. Nor does it establish that SF is the worst-managed city in the US.

Really? How about all those prints of French champagne advertising from the 20s and 30s that graces people's walls and are collected by galleries/museums/collectors? How about Russian film posters from the 40s? Advertising is art, it just sometimes takes historical distance for people to accept that fact. Also, some of the greatest photography of the end of the 20th Century has come from advertising (fashion, mostly).
Really? That argument already felt stale back in the mid-1980s when I first met it, and it isn't any fresher since then. The cute part, however, is that in the 1980s my friends and I were totally, 100%, completely certain that punk was dead, any band still around was probably just sell out posers faking it, blah blah punky cakes. So it has always cracked me up to see people pointing to that time (and correctly so) as a pivotal moment for punk, because it didn't feel that way at the time.

Of course, Logan is the only airport I fly through internationally, so perhaps the security is actually more annoying at other internat'l terminals in the US, I really wouldn't know. But I do know that Logan isn't any different than Reykjavk, Lisbon, Paris, Madrid, or Rome in the whole "Take off your shoes, walk through this metal detector, turn around and dance like a chicken" arena of security.

I think "speakeasy-style" bars are becoming really popular and on-trend, at least according to my 20-something friends who live in Chicago, Cambridge, and NY.

(Cosmopolitan, vol. 32, issue 11) was published in Journal of Sociological Research I switched over wholesale from Olde English Malt Liquor. For the best, probably -- Old E's 'scientists' tended to just break a forty on a counter and threaten you with it until you finally admitted you drank the "High Gravity" variant because it sounded cool.
Really? That seems like the least filmable of the PKD books I've read. Most of the plot, especially in the beginning, revolves around relationships and politics rather than the usual gadgetry and action that most sci fi films depend on. And without giving to much away, the final confrontation at the end of the film would make absolutely no sense if you just saw what was happening on the screen rather than being told the significance of what was going on via the narration.
Personally Ubik is the one that I think would make the best film if done right. They could cut out a lot of the setup from the beginning part without really losing much, and once the plot gets going there is always something happening that would be interesting on screen the rest of the way through. With good special effects it would at least be entertaining, even if the screenplay wasn't that great.

And yet congress just keeps voting for more and more off-budget supplemental funding resolutions to keep it going. Doesn't sound very fiscally responsible to me. More to the point, no one who's making these claims should be self-righteously waving the "how will we pay for this flag?" particularly since HCR was a program that had its own funding sources and reduced the deficit.

History may be full of them, but I am sure that means they are the most stable.

I'm asking seriously. I'm too young to really know what constituted pop any time earlier than this decade. And within that limited frame (and from what I know of 90s pop) there weren't any real freak pop musicians. Were there earlier than that? If so, who? I'd like to know.

So those wall street fucks deserve the money but the people who have to deal with the fallout of the crappy, inequitable society we have are somehow not deserving of more than $30.00/hr? Puh-leeze. You get what you pay for. If the teachers were paid a decent amount, more quality people would step up to work.
Really? Our bodies are biodegradable for a reason!

Really. Because at least in the eyes of the law (from the little I know), a baby with FAS or other conditions developed by the abusive behaviour of the mother is better off than a baby who wasn't born. There is no such thing as "unlawful life" in the courts.
Really? So the vast majority of old work where determining ownership is impossible should just never be used?
No way. I have worked near these things plenty, and never got sick of them. I don't like it because it's novel; I like it because I think concrete and glass look really cool together. Especially at twilight, when the brightness of the sky just about matches the brightness of the lights inside, but of course they've got very different color temperatures, so you've got this beautiful contrast between the cool blue exterior and the warm yellow light coming from the windows--and this from a building that's just flat gray the rest of the day!
really? Man, I miss Bobst. That was easily my favorite building on campus. I always liked to study in there, especially on the higher floors, where you could see out through the atrium.
Really? She didn't seem like she was making rational decisions at all. A fairly classic case of codependence. The tipping point for me was her treatment of Joel as an adult - interpreting his rejection of Glen-as-a-father as a rejection of herself.
Really? Just considered as pure sound, it's got a kind of rustling/burbling glutinous quality that makes me think it's the last thing a shoggoth victim hears.*
I'd be really sad if these accusations turn out to be true, because Yelp was the one online-review place that I trusted not to pull this kind of shenaniganry.
really? Not me- I had a bad experience with them about a year and a half ago, and after that, I was done.
Really? That sounds more like Michael Bay that McG. McG has done two garish, T&A-filled "action" films that barely qualify for the genre, one movie of the week-style tear-jerker and a dour but bland action sequel. Brutalism is the last architectural style I'd compare him to.
Really? Because the dogs in the two films look pretty similar to me - they both even have the same white spot on their foreheads.
Really? are we going to be that condescendingly dismissive of a nation's "ugly habit" when we don't even have the perspective to look at it objectively? I thought MetaFilter discourse was better than that.
really? That human is just as bad ass as a Predator? I mean, standing side by side, hand to hand combat?

Really? Because I've known only one guy who was an operative in the CIA. Always insisted he worked for State. Until he was killed in Afghanistan. His wife, a former lawyer for the CIA forced them to admit that he was an operative.

Really? I mean I know that work places don't run like clockwork, and I've waited for plenty of interviews, but if I even caught a hint that someone is playing stupid power games like that when interviewing me I'd only take the job if I desperately needed the money. Oh, and I'd be looking for a new job from day one.
I'm not really buying all of this "these are the same people who have oppressed black people for ages." Not only because many of these people ARE black themselves, but because this movement is, at least in their minds, a pro-black charge. Through their eyes, they are acting in an attempt to strengthen the African-American community, not undermine or oppress it.
Really? You have access to their minds? OK, how many of them would let a Black man marry their daughter?
really? sliding your finger on a screen can be a patent? i guess.
Really? The best argument he can muster against IE is 'won't someone think of the hypothetical people who are afraid of singing who go grocery shopping whilst upset over a relative's suicide?'
Really? A savage? I mean, I understand the sentiment and agree with it on a visceral level. But certainly you can understand that it's a nuanced issue and that "corporation" doesn't just mean "commercial economic entity." Moreover, even if that were all it means, do you consider "savage" anyone who advocates against censorship of network television broadcasts? After all, that's helping grant free speech to a corporation, is it not? Was George Carlin a savage because he helped grant free speech to corporations?
I've done this every day for five years. All the other faculty think I'm insane*, because the food isn't disgusting, but it's not really healthy. More to the point, I'm one of those weird people who think that leaders needs to be willing to do anything they expect their followers to do. Though, unlike the AP above, most of our kids eat the free breakfast and lunch provided, because it's quite possibly the only meals they'll get that day.
Really? God help us all.

Really? I got a similar notification, and considered it one of the most refreshingly honest letters I've ever received from a company... Basically they said "in order to maintain our current profit margin, we've decided to raise your rates and lower your rewards".
Really?
Really?
Yes, really. Flippancy aside, I want to understand. Yes, the Korea-Japan thing we all understand and it's a factor, but Kim Yu-Na won. Handily. My western head is used to second place grousing, or those who feel they never had a chance because others got so many advantages (like how U.S. baseball fans feel about the Yankees)... but not the winners. I just do not get it, but I'd like to.

Important point - I didn't buy a $40-60k luxury/sporty car, which every dealer I visited really wanted to push me into (apparently when they see early-20s males walk in, the dollar signs start flashing in their eyes). I bought a $12k no-frills compact sedan, which has served me quite well since then.
Really? I've made probably about $400 off of my credit card rewards over the time since I've been using them. I pay them off in full every month. What has this cost me?

REally? You sure about that?
Really? I'm pretty sure the Catholic Church's doctrinal prohibition against same sex sexual relations is pretty deeply grounded in Catholic doctrine throughout the ages. Since the Catholic Church doesn't really go for the "literal interpretation in the Bible and nothing else" approach of some Christian sects, I'm not sure the argument that the Bible doesn't unambiguously condemn same-sex relations gets much traction here.
Really? The advent of Kindle and Espresso printers is order of magnitudes bigger than the fucking printing press!? Come on. I found the article a little breathless and self serving for my tastes. I'd expect to see this in Wired perhaps, but I expect more from the NY Review.
Really?
Really? I see faith in an absolutely good deity who is distant and removed from the evils faced by the protagonists to be distinctly Christian. Faith and virtue are irrelevant to Gilgamesh, The Monkey King, or Heracles, who are personally confronted by gods that are only occasionally good. These themes and structures only look universal, first because we live in a Christian-centric culture, and second because modern ideas about theology have become distinctly less literal.
Really? All the controversy over whether we should focus on nuclear, coal, or renewable energy sources and the discussions over the US's procurement of petrol that have been going back and forth and back and forth for decades will finally be solved in the next two years? AWESOME!!!
Really? Did you actually read the linked page? For that matter, did you read 1984? Here's a hint - in 1984, the telescreens couldn't be turned off, and with this software, you have to (voluntarily) download and install it. For that matter, there really isn't anything that can USE this library yet.
Really? Men have historically been granted privilege on condition that they and their bodies are exploited to further the economic interests of power, whether that's being cannon fodder for some imperial adventure or risking your life in the bottom of a mine to generate profits for Wall Street. Men who resist are branded as cowards, deranged, criminals or traitors, and all "good men" are required to do their patriotic/patriarchal duty and protect women from them.
Really? Superficially this doesn't seem true, but that could of course be very misleading. I'm interested to read examples of this.

Really? UW-Madison is a public university. I'm guessing its newspaper is funded at least partially by taxpayers. Does anyone know authoritatively how much leeway papers like this really have to reject advertisements before running aground of first amendment lawsuits?

Really? I've seen multiple friends (and my husband with his ipod, twice) boot up their macs only to be greeted by the sad mac icon thanks to total hard drive failure or some sort--two while they were thesising. I don't think this necessarily means that Macs are any more unstable than any other computer--just equally so, and, thanks to the initial cost of the hardware, a potentially more expensive failure. Where or not this is worth it is up to you. I'm a cheapskate, so dickering with kubuntu linux (which has gorgeous UI and design, for what it's worth) works for me--it's no more perfectly assured to work at all times, but in computing, as in so much else, nothing is.

While I like the jab "He’s a “secret agent” who tells anyone his name," I think the focus on the transparency of the books is misguided. I side with R.M. Berry, who said "Genre books aren’t bad. They are the paradigm of good books." You don't go into a spy novel with expectations for something groundbreaking, just like you don't watch the Bond movies hoping to see something really novel in movies (except new spy gadgetry). Again, it all comes down to what sort of "bad" you see (or expect to find).
Really? The headline? I prefer "WA- (headline continued on page 2)"

Really? "Sputa"? In that context, I doubt the speaker was using correct medical terminology. The colloquial "spit" probably would work better, and if it was an idiom, then the translation should find the nearest English idiom instead.

really? OK, that's cool." It doesn't really have any bearing on his activities as the World's Foremost Skeptic. Being 81 years old, he comes from a time when homosexuals were much more persecuted (like he says), which is why I'd guess he waited so long to come out, and he seems like he was even afraid of how people would react. I would think most people's reaction, especially among hyper-rational mostly-atheist Randi fans, would be the same as mine.
Really? Before the health care fight, before the economic stimulus package, before President Obama even took office, Senator Mitch McConnell, the Republican minority leader, had a strategy for his party: use his extensive knowledge of Senate procedure to slow things down, take advantage of the difficulties Democrats would have in governing and deny Democrats any Republican support on big legislation.

Prime Minister: I love that word "relationship." Covers all manner of sins, doesn't it? I fear that this has become a bad relationship; a relationship based on the President taking exactly what he wants and casually ignoring all those things that really matter to, erm... Britain. We may be a small country, but we're a great one, too. The country of Shakespeare, Churchill, the Beatles, Sean Connery, Harry Potter. David Beckham's right foot. David Beckham's left foot, come to that. And a friend who bullies us is no longer a friend. And since bullies only respond to strength, from now onward I will be prepared to be much stronger. And the President should be prepared for that.

Because from where I stand as a GenX-er...only people with a certain level of privilege, education and resources end up falling into these retarded over-generalized categories. There are lot more people out there born in the early 70s than a bunch of rich, white people.

It just sounds exactly like every other top 40 pop song in the last 3-4 years to me - heavy autotune, distorted filter-y portamento-y synths, a hip hop-derivative beat, etc. It's completely cookie cutter.

Kinda like a modern Stock Aitken and Waterman, whose shit also all sounded the same.

As someone who's considered an expert in something - in the literal sense, as I'm an expert witness in several court cases regarding specific IT issues - I can say there aren't really any "numbers proving your certifying your expertise". I'm an expert because other people consider me an expert, and pay for my services as an expert, and my knowledge of the subject matter has convinced the people paying for my services that I'm an expert (and because the opposing counsel hasn't convinced the judge otherwise).

really? If it's really public and freely accessible land, I don't think anyone could reasonably expect a higher level of privacy. I think there may be a different range of acceptable behaviors, for example, dressing oneself, or pissing, or carrying a firearm, that may not fly on a public street. One may indeed find more privacy. But to expect more privacy may be a mistaken expectation.

You know what pisses me off? When people are just outright racists, but have to spin some nonsense tripe obfuscating the historical facts or evident truths of a situation so they can cast their racism as justified by something other than outright hatred. If you're going to be a racist, be an honorable racist and come clean about it. Don't be one of those holocaust-deniers who says the gas chambers couldn't have worked, or one of those anti-black racists who says the Civil War was really fought over "states' rights" in some abstract sense. Don't bullshit us.

This is laughable... this is categorically NOT a hidden chapel, nor is it anything whatsoever to do with WWII and the digression about Churchill's secret army is frankly baffling and reads like you needed to fill a word-quota. The auctioneer quoted must auction cars or something, because he obviously knows nothing at all about history or houses.
really? There's a certain degree of apocalypse porn about the whole concept of something that could kill us all that we can't do anything to stop, but there's also the idea that we can't do anything to stop it, as opposed to all kinds of horrible shit it is completely within our power to stop and that also is affecting people right now. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say probably none of us are lucky enough to see all our problems wiped away by a cosmic reset button, and aside from campaigning for a fully-funded space program (which we should have anyhow) that would have the beneficial side-effect of maybe seeing us clear of this unlikely scenario there isn't a lot we can do to prevent such an eventuality besides, so pretty much, I dunno, fuck it.

Really? As much as I may not like him, and as little as I know about you, I can say without any doubt Bill Gates has helped and done far more for the poor of the world than you, even if we don't look at the millions of people he's employed and the billions of dollars of wealth he's created for the nation. He's among the most generous and pragmatic of philanthropists, and I think you're mean.
REALLY? This is like the kid who murdered his parents asking for pity because he's an orphan. Geez louise.
Really? It seems odd that you had no problem (or at least not enough of a problem to prompt a comment from you) with the discussion in this thread imputing racism or bigotry to the tea party protesters, but as soon as the discussion started ascribing "reasonable-sounding viewpoints" on tax policy to the protesters, you needed to make sure the discussion had an actual basis in fact, voiced by a spokesperson and/or articulated in a platform of something. But whatever. We all get to be selective about where we give the benefit of the doubt.

The angriest of them all seem to be the militia movement, which as far as I can tell recruit members from the poorest strata of society. Their anger does not seem to focus at all on the financial sector (hell, it's not that well focused at all, as far as I can tell).
Really? God. We get at least two every election, one in French, the other in English. The last one had five party leaders involved. They have become exercises in tedium for me...a bunch of pasty politicians all struggling to spew the best one liner of the evening, because that's what will make the news.
Really? You are positively sure about this? One of the most irritating parts of privilege is the unerring ability to be obtuse about its existence.
I really respect Ebert but, I mean, come on. Gruesome violence has been a part of media since god-knows-when. What about Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus? How about Grand Guignol? That and comics are a medium and have not been purely childrens' territory for a good thirty years now. There's no goddamn reason for a six-year-old to see this movie at all. Not in the theater. Not on home video. Period.
Really? Bullshit. Utter bullshit. Sure, they're shooting one another. They have been shooting one another. They will continue to shoot one another. But if it's a movie that sets them over the edge, there's a good fuck barrel of incredibly regrettable issues w/r/t socialization and parenting that precedes some kid picking up a gun and blowing away his peers.

really? The answer, of course, is really really hard. To simplify this whole business for non-piano-tuners, you have to stretch out the upper half of the keyboard so the notes are slightly higher and likewise, lower with the bottom half. (If this oversimplification is wrong, I'm sure someone will correct me!) You do this by tuning in fifths and purposely make them imperfect, by, say, counting seven "beats" (wavering to the ear) in 10 seconds. Or you can use a computer program. In fact, I've always wanted to have my tuner use his computer to tune my piano the way they did before equal temperament, but I'm too chicken. I sure would like to hear a "wolf," though.

$400-500/oz for "really good" weed
Really? Seriously? Is that what Americans pay for "really good" bud? Because up here in Canada, where we really have no choice but to grow indoors, an ounce of the best can't go over $300. I mean, most of us still cringe at $250. If you're dumb enough to pay >$400 for an ounce of weed, you're not getting the best around anyway. Can someone tell me how many US dollars the average American stoner ACTUALLY pays for an ounce?

I thought this was a little silly too, the whole thing is built with advanced computer technology. I mean, it uses OCR and a camera to read. It's really more of a 'demonstration' of a Turing machine then anything else. Also, his claim that this is the "First Ever" Turing machine also makes no real sense at all. It's just one of the most literal interpretations, in terms of appearance. But in my mind it's not a 'real' turing machine because it's built out of other computers, rather then simple circuits or hardware.

I don't like the part about women being described as "relentlessly upbeat." They did that in Sheryl Sandberg's profile but that exact phrase was how Joe Wilson, in his memoir, said his son (Valerie Plame's stepson) described Valerie Plame. I know I'm supposed to think that she's awesome for being so cheerful and sunny and happy and so different from those of us who have variations in our emotional states, but it really makes her cartoonish. It is okay to want to scratch Karl Rove and Robert Novak's eyes out, Valerie, or consider writing/saying mean things about them on the interwebs. You don't have to immerse yourself in baking cupcakes and pretend like their ruining your career was a blessing in disguise because you got a book deal.

really? i've been on more anti-racist marches than i've had hot dinners but in the last three or four years the influx of eastern europeans (which is what the 'vile, racist bigot' was referring to) willing and able to undercut the indigenous workforce (particularly in the building trade etc) has become a real issue for a lot of people in the uk. this make right on guardian reading types like me uncomfortable, but to accuse anyone who wants to ask reasonable questions about these issues as racists or bigots is i think at best, a cheap shot and at worst, similar to the kind of kneejerk bullshit that the BNP thrives on. and i'm surprised that Brown wanted to take such a cheap shot at someone who'd supported his party for so long. i'd always had a soft spot for Gordon, but no longer, and his apology rings very very hollow.
really? Think about it: it's marketed as a breakfasty beverage. But what else do people enjoy for breakfast? That's right, cereal. Cereal drowned in milk. And what happens when you introduce acidic orange juice to proteiny milk? The milk curdles is what, and it tastes vile. It's all part of the great Breakfast Conspiracy: you eat a big serving of shit first thing in the morning along with your newspaper - two big servings of shit, really - and no matter what happens you figure your day can't get much worse. And on top of all that, after the last dregs of OJ you go and brush your teeth, and that's just mouth-fuckery on a catastophic level. Wake up, people!

One of the things I've always loved about her work-- particularly early on-- was what she was able to make out of the most elementary building blocks: a few chords on the guitar, plus her imagination. An autoharp is the most anti-virtuosic instrument there is, really, so it's the same thing: her imagination is all.
Really? The same person? Not possible. That's not to say that Flash is horrifyingly bad at its core - it's perfectly serviceable, and frankly the best thing out there for rich web development - but if it's possible to screw that up by layering shit all around it, Adobe seems hell-bent on trying. And it's to be expected that Apple - who clearly wants to move into a future where they have more and more control over what happens on their platforms, given the particularities of this iPhone OS they've tied their fortunes to - will do all they can to remove any other player who threatens their dominance there.

Seconding what delmoi just wrote, you have to remember that the whole Gulf coast was just utterly devasted by Katrina only five years ago, and in most places hasn't really made any significant recovery. This disaster is threatening not only to do major, major ecological damage, but a HUGE chunk of the economy that remains down there is in fishing, etc., and that's all stopping now too. So, yes, this will very quickly become a humanitarian crisis as well.

Although I maintain that it's really not that bad if you consider it a light fantasy. It's about as far away from reality as anything involving magic or elves or dragons, so why not?

And then to find out the Lynch himself is actually filming conceptual Lynchian works seems almost like a double Lynchian negative, which by definition must form a "positive" non-Lynch manifold, of which the original concept must have been from Lynch himself, so it can't be Lynchian. It's like an Empedoclean paradox of Lynch-non-Lynch and oops, there goes my brain. Which is exactly what he must have intended, and then of course he must have intended that I feel that he intended it, and oops, there goes another Lynch infinite regression of the surreal.

Really? Shannon always struck me as more of a "love the one you're with" situation, given that, you know, every Sayid episode has been about how Nadia's his true love. That's a small quibble though, really - I guess Shannon's got to get to heaven, too.

DO NOT. Ahem. Do not remind me how much of my life I wasted watching Cheers. I mean really. There were shows I enjoyed less, but none of them strike me as an actual waste of time, if that makes any sense.
really? I suppose I'm unable to judge it accurately, given how formative it was as a major cultural piece of my childhood, but man... I don't know that I've ever heard anyone refer to a show that's conspicuously and explicitly about non-motile barflies as a "waste of time".

I can't really explain this. I mean, I have all kinds of useless knowledge in my head and I don't lament any of it. I like that when I visited the cultural museum in Seoul, the thing that immediately sent me into shock was seeing spirit posts like that one episode in M*A*S*H. But for some reason, I'm just furious with myself for spending any time at all watching Cheers. My life was not even momentarily enriched by getting to know Carla Tortelli and Norm and Diane and the rest. I suppose some people feel the same way about, I dunno, Full House, but I never watched that show.

A headscarf isn't the symbol radical Islam rallies behind as it sends Jews to concentration camps and tries to conquer the genetically inferior people of Europe, despite what Belgium, France, and Switzerland might claim. The swastika represents complete and aggressive intolerance of other people, beliefs, and ways of life and is almost universally understood as such. You've seen case after case here of women choosing to wear a headscarf of their own free will for their own reasons; what the headscarf represents is not "universally understood" period.

really? The PMRC was pretty harmless. If I recall correctly, they didn't even want to ban "obscene" music -- they just wanted to label it, right? And I mean, we have that now, and lo and behold, the musical universe hasn't imploded or anything. Hell, I support age limits, labeling schemes, and rating systems -- anything that keeps the kids away from the adult stuff so that adults are free to enjoy it.
Really?) More than that, the weirdness really doesn't fit with the songs, which are little more than well-crafted pop.
That said, when I say "well-crafted" I really mean it. They're very catchy, fun to sing along to, you definitely recognise one when you hear it, and they're simple enough to play as well. I was a happy man when I found how easy it was to play Bad Romance on the uke.
Really? Because though they say "Here you can expect to see all types of science fiction, from near-future, sociological soft sf, to far-future, star-spanning hard sf, and anything and everything in between" from the line-up and the science articles I;m going to guess they lean to more science fiction science fiction, which is no bad thing (possibly even a gap in the market right now).

Is it bias I cleaned myself up and made good of my wreck of a life? Making assumptions doesn't really help your argument at all. I didn't even know how to work a computer properly till I was in my late 20's. We didn't have one when I was a child. Heck I didn't even know what FM radio was till I was 16. I bought my first one with the job. Aol. What a dumbdum I was hmm?

I'd be interested to learn, though. Could someone, say, point me to a characteristic piece of recent pre-Gaga pop music, and then something after Gaga that shows me how she destroyed it? You know, a dramatic before-and-after? If she really did destroy pop music, it should be easy to do. You could, for example, easily do this for the Beatles...
really? I don't observe my music year-by-year so much, and I wasn't alive in the sixties, but the sixties music I have, which ranges from pop to rock to psychadelia, doesn't have anything that sounds particularly "here's where the Beatles changed things" to it. No more than, say, Hendrix changed people, or Dylan changed people. Even within those three artists each one changed the other two so much that you can't point to a single one as "most" influential.

Really? Watching that video made me lose some sympathy for the protesters. If you are going to be peaceful then be peaceful. If you're going to be violent at least do it in a way that is effective. Otherwise you look like a total tool who looks more like they are trying to provoke a reaction than make a statement or solve any problems. And it always seems to be the religious types who are the idiots doing this sort of thing. Don't get me wrong; I don't support Israel's reaction, but this type of shit just pisses me off.
I actually had a really good argument recently with one of my good friends. He is an ardent supporter of Israel. I noticed, over the course of the discussion/shouting match, his inability to see things from a Palestinian point of view. I found myself suddenly labeled as a supporter of terrorism. Needless to say that in reality I think that there is enough blame to go around in the I/P discussion. Really....a bottle? Fucking amateurs dude.

Yes. Really.No. Not really.
Also, the men making these remarks are using humor to cope with a nightmarish scenario. Which means that they think it's something they have to endure. You really don't want to foreclose their coping mechanisms, because if you do, they might start to think that maybe it's not something to be endured, but something that really must be changed.

Because she's right, many of the people who were supposed to be involved in this process failed at their jobs, or at least did their jobs poorly in a way that must be incredibly frightening for a person who is about to have her first baby. And then, you know, there's the medical/science angle of four days of labor (which I don't think is universally diagnosable as either always do a major surgical intervention or never do a major surgical intervention). And then there's human fat on the floor.
Whatever your personal beliefs might be about how to deal with fertility issues, I thought this story was pretty compelling.

Yep, every scout has to decide when it comes off the resume (and whether it goes on at all). Some really find jobs where that's respected. When somebody's in their late teens or early 20s, there's a good chance their boss will use it as a way to earn their trust -- "hey, Eagle Scout huh? COOL! Tell me about that! -- and then give them a crappy job. There's also the chance that they're working in something outdoors-related and have developed a significant skillset, toward which the award serves as a single pointer. I have a lot of friends who did search-and-rescue, and some who still do it, and Eagle Scout stays on the resume.

Really? I'm going to assume that sentance is missing some qualifying statements. Torrents: Not necessarily legal, but certainly a way to watch TV shows on Linux. Content offered direct from other broadcasters: I've never had trouble watching the Australian ABC's online content in Linux, and I'm pretty sure I've watched the commercial networks' online content as well. TV Tuner card: Yeah timeshifting is great, isn't it, but one of these would let you watch TV on Linux. Just to nitpick.

Really? My '50s classic is a 650 and "only" has about 35hp. A 350 from that period is pretty unusable on the highway. Hell, the 650 is just barely adequate for modern highways, with nothing much in reserve at the speed limit.

Really? I have always been baffled that music education spends so much time and effort on teaching reading music but doesn't concurrently teach students to accurately play by ear at the same level. I think sight reading and general music reading, as well as standard notation, are very important skills to learn as a musician (particularly as a working musician), but ear training and ad hoc shorthand notation to remember sequences and parts learned by ear are at least equally useful but are, for the most part, neglected in music education until a fairly advanced level.

Yeah, I had the same thought. It really does seem that the conservative wing of the Republican party and the Vatican are sharing the same playbook: "Whenever you start to lose cultural or political currency, try to convince people that women and gays are destroying the world, and that you are the last line of defense against complete social disorder."

Really? To itself? I thought it was buying ads and putting them on tv and on billboards and radio and frigging everything. Now, it might be that the cost of actually purchasing those ads is $30 million and the extra $100 million is a fee from WB to WB, which would be totally dishonest, but is that what is happening? Likewise, the distribution fee of $212 million. That seems high, but it is unarguable that movies cost money to distribute. It's stated that this is just WB paying itself so that the movie has a loss, but absolutely no proof is given.
The thing that really stands out (to me) is the Negative Cost/Advance (probably because I have no idea what it is).

It is too bad, because as with the Wachowksis, Christopher Nolan arrived with a nifty little quasi-film noir (Bound vs. Memento) and then launched into a big stupid iconic trilogy (Matrix vs. Batman). I really wanted to like this, but I am forced to admit that I couldn't.

Really? The meatpackers, drywallers etc...moved up to where exactly? It's not that immigrants are "taking" jobs from people it's just that labor, like any other market, is supply and demand. A large influx of workers that will work relatively cheaply allows businesses to drop wages for a given job to the point that these jobs become unattractive to most people. Real wages for "working people" have been stagnant for decades and the prosperity that comes with increased productivity has not increased for everyone in the end. Or, on preview, what chimaera said.

The obnoxious radical vegetarian who spoils your party is a myth. I have never met her. No one I know has met her. She is a phantasm of your own mind that you project upon others.

Really. It's quite tolerable, provided that you don't pour too much water on the stones. I've most likely (don't know for sure; not all saunas have thermometers) been to a 110C sauna, and it wasn't really any worse than the one my father has at home that only goes up to 90C because the air in there is always so damn humid, which is the thing that really matters; you don't really feel the heat itself when you're in a sauna, you feel the hot water molecules in the air. Enough steam can make even a 50-60C sauna intolerable.

And promising the perfect BLT to one and all, AS A BIRTHRIGHT, codified in the metafilter Bacon Protocols... and meticulously...passed down.... through the years..... from hand to hand....that old bacon lettuce tomato recipe... and a blowjob...would be the perfect... way to shuffle off... this mortal coil....Maybe also a Brompton's cocktail........Carrot bacon eh?? Pffftt......
Really? Huh.
Ha.. I was once at a really pretentious party thrown by some really pretentious classical musicians who forced us all to sit through them drunkenly playing a string quartet and then Lithuanian drinking songs, sung in Lithuanian, with shots of Krupnika consumed at the appropriate moments, for extra gratuitous drunkenness. Yeesh. Later in the evening, I talked to the viola player, he asked me what I did, I mentioned computers. Suddenly he launched into a drunken tirade about how iPods and computers were destroying music, they make people into mindless music consumers who never even consider they might perform their own music or listen to music performed live.

Really? Somehow China's position in the world was previously in doubt, and other nations are not yet figuring out what will happen when China starts pushing and pulling more on global markets?

I felt sorry for the people involved - not for what they were presently experiencing, but for the whole course of their lives. The participants were being degraded and I felt sad and angry on their behalf - even if they were complicit in their degradation. But these prisoners - we don't know their names, they quite possibly weren't even aware that they were being photographed. It's just not comparable. They're not even doing that walk-of-shame thing that I see on USA TV.

I think what this shows is that it's entirely possible to be a 'scientists' and still have woowoo out there crazy ideas. A lot of people think 'scientists' should all think the same way, but really that's ridiculous. What makes someone a scientists is what they do when they're doing their research. Not what they actually believe.
Really? It seems to me that once time passes, it's gone. History doesn't 'exist' at all, just the stuff that used to be in the past. You can tell what the past was like based on evidence (including memories) but I don't think it exists the same way, say, the sun exists.

Really? So if she's torn apart by a mob, that would be OK with you? Something happened in this woman's brain, something bad, and it would be prudent to find out what it was that went on. Mob mentality punishes for an act without trying to understand why the act was committed. And I'm of the opinion that determining cause is just as important as determining guilt. I also believe that truly civilized society will not condone the punishment of sickness with violence.

(Yes, they are tagging stuff they don't own, even if it already has a university property tag on it.) The same people who have informed us that we can't buy Apple products because they are "legacy systems", while the 8-year-old thin clients running Windows XP are the norm - even if the computer is for research, and will never be used on the VA network? The same justification for periodically not allowing us to buy software for Macs - well, we don't allow them, so why should we let you buy software? - and these guys have been convinced that a Blackberry is OK?

I don't even mean that in a bad way, or a wanting-to-dodge-the-label way, since I tend to like hipsters alright.

Almost every article about it opens like the first one of this post: "The Oval Office has gotten a makeover. When President Obama addresses the nation on Iraq on Tuesday night, he will do so from newly redecorated digs." The timing is not a coincidence; the Iraq speech has been bundled with the Oval Office redesign to make it more palatable to the public.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding their presentation. Aren't they saying that no one race/national origin group, when trying to attract a romantic partner on OKCupid, announces their like of football more frequently than other such groups? In other words, that it's not that white men like Van Halen but don't like football - it's that only white men think that announcing enthusiasm for Van Halen is an effective dating strategy. But I didn't read the article closely and I haven't really thought about their statistical methodology at all.

I agree with you on the "Big Lebowski" example. That's not as clear with some of the others, e.g. "tall dark and handsome." When it comes to things like movies and singers, few people will claim to like a movie when they really hated it. But many people will choose to mention that they like movie A and not mention they like movie B. So it's still skewed even if no one ever falsely claims to like a movie/singer/whatever.

In my world there is Santa claus and presents on Christmas morning. In my world there is love, lovers, feasts, art and parties. Do you reenact the sacrifice of a God and drink his blood, eat his body to cleanse away your sins after forgiving your neighbor? Have you ever spoken in tongues or felt then gifts of the holy spirit descend down on you. Stand in the church of the Holy Sepulchure on Easter and watch holy fire ignite inside the tomb and let your 33 candles be ignited as the sheet of fire spreads out. If you are just an illusion, why not enjoy a grand illusion. Stand in Al-Aqska or the grand mosque in Cairo for Friday prayers and bow to Mecca. Open the Torah read the prayers and rest. There will be time for you data and deductions after the sabbath ends.

A lot of the time, 'specialist' ranges are confined to cities - and teens can't easily travel to them or order online even if they could afford it. I grew up in a town with a sizeable Asian population, and a population of about 100,000 - you had a choice between drugstore and maybe Lancome, neither of which are great for darker skins. It's also not a rich area, so no store that charges 18 for a foundation is going to open up there. Maybe that's why the fashion in that town is for streaky fake tan...

All references to US media, with apparently no awareness of English English, let alone Jamaican, Indian, Australian, ad infinitum? Just some whining old grump having a tantrum because some provincial newspapers nobody cares about displayed some slack copyediting? Sorry, but that was seriously the worst thing I've read in a long time. Pretty ironic that this piece is (as far as I noticed, albeit without a fine-tooth comb scan) free of spelling and grammar errors, and of essentially zero worth, whereas someone out there is an error-strewn article this guy would presumably sneer at for its mistakes, which, despite them, communicates something worth communicating.

Really? I could fit 5-10 (or more in some pants) full size SD cards in my watch pocket. MicroSD cards are so tiny that carrying around a few of them is completely unnoticeable unless you are the princess from the story about the princess and the pea. Of course, they're also very easy to lose, so there is that. Nevertheless, being able to add 32GB of storage to a device is pretty handy.

Universities need to cut programs that are doing poorly and reallocate resources to programs that are succeeding. It sucks for students caught in the middle (I was a linguistics major when my school cut the linguistics department entirely), but in the long run students want to go to great programs in their fields. Old-fashioned state universities with 500 mediocre departments are struggling to attract great students, because they'd rather go to the schools with 20 really good departments. Not everyone knows their major when they pick a college, but most know beforehand if they want to do humanities, social science, science, or engineering and can apply to schools with good programs in those areas.

We all do it, everyone does it everywhere. It's part of being a human. But yeah, the re-branding of traditional Middle-Eastern dishes as "traditional Israeli" dishes - as though they were served in King David's court 3,000 years ago - really kind of gets my hackles up. Maybe not the hummus thing so much. But it's all part of the colonial outlook. If you can't force a cultural artifact to vanish, you appropriate it.

When I was a kid, other kids would make fun of costumes simply for being too cheap, or not "cool enough." (ie "a Power Ranger? Dude, they are *so* two years ago") - I can't imagine that kids today are any different. The proper lesson here is not to tell your kid "No, why would they make fun of you? They won't make fun of you" but rather "So what if they make fun of you?"
