These words could not be more appropriate, given his role, so...

Paul Bearer, Rest In Peace.

And aside from anecdotal evidence and the flash 7/14 and the D6 they seem to be valid too O.o

...are they aware of the existence of underpants? Seriously, we don't just wear them so there's something to look at when our skirts flip up, covering the void of space that would normally be there. I'm pretty sure that if you use underpants, you can't catch your pubes or cock in the zipper.

I've got three theories off the top of my head.

I don't ask, but since 'commando' is a term, there's likely a sizable number of people who don't wear underpants.

Boxers are fairly loose, so it could allow for things to stick out, and there's at least some pain if you're forceful enough with the zipper (do people actually rage-zip?).

I've heard of people using that hole in the front and leave it sticking through.

I've gotten injuries to the junkal region when it rests on the opened zipper while urinating. Nothing serious, but I have a scar near the base from it.

Not that any of you needed to know that.

I remain baffled as to the purpose of that hole.

Pulling your junk through it and the zipper without having to undo your belt buckle?

Sounds scratchy and unpleasant. I'd rather undo my belt.

It works fine. Just pay attention to what you're doing. When I recount the thousand of experiences I've had, and seen others have, at the urinal that didn't involve screaming, I think it's a pretty workable system.

Or accidentally flopping out that stupid hole at the worst moment right when zipping up. Didn't require hospitalization so it didn't make the statistics, but it sure wasn't pleasant.

Fuck the secession nonsense, but the goldbug thing is ludicrous.

"Over 100,000 people signed the petition asking to let Texas secede"

I'd like to think most of those signatures were from non-Texans.

We-ell. Hard to say. A lot were from Texas.

And then some were from wingnuts who, I'm ashamed to say, are probably from my neck of the woods and think if Texas secedes, it'll open the way for others.

And then you have the people who think it's funny to sign the petition.

What about people that just want to no longer be Texans' countrymen?

It's not "news", but its awesome. There's a publisher here in Quebec called "Les Éditions de Ta Mère".

Yup.

"Your Mom Editions".

Their FAQ is a bunch of "your mom" jokes.

not sure if this should be in political news
http://slashdot.org/topic/bi/are-hacker ... cyber-war/

basically, as far as i understand this, hackers are considered to be enemy combatants in cyber war.
an enemy combatant is never considered to be unarmed.
thus he is always considered an armed thread.
armed threads can be taken out with kinectic force.
so yes, the pudgy or frail looking pale fellow with the laptop can expect to get the same treatment as the big burly muscled guy toting knives, guns and bombs . .

Je suis allé là-bas en espérant profiter d'être capable de lire le français et trouvé seulement désappointement. Tout comme avec votre mère la nuit dernière.

Pat Buchanan basically suggesting Civil War as inevitable if same-sex marriage becomes the law of the land.

I actually appreciate Buchanan's ability to articulate his beliefs, which undoubtedly many Americans share. I don't agree with those beliefs, I think that they are fundamentally flawed. History and the examination of nature show that homosexuality, abortion, and other issues are not this abomination that has been lurching down the centuries like bogeymen, only now coming into the light of day because church folk aren't calling on them to be burnt on pyres in public. Any objective examination of the history of religion shows that beliefs and morality do change, and that homosexuality and abortion were always present - often punished in public and hypocritically embraced in private, but never absent, and at times more accepted than at others, even among Christians.

Are you saying there was a time when Christians accepted homosexuality?
