Further proof that Sir David is an aberration.

I'm not British, but I drink several cups of tea every night. I suppose it's meant to counterbalance the several cups of coffee every morning.

Coffee only tastes bad if you're drinking bad coffee. Sadly, that's mostly what you get in the US (and, I'm told, Britain). French roasts are my favorite.

I like my coffee same way I like my men -- black and strong.

I drink chai tea sometimes, but my great love is green tea.

Djur, I see what you're saying, but you've got to remember, people are idiots. Some are less idiotic than others, but we really are idiots. I find that the couples that married for personality, etc. and abstained from sex before marriage say things like "I am married to the most wonderful person in the world, I just wish he was better in bed" whereas those who have sex before marriage say things like "He's great in bed, but outside of the bedroom I can't stand him because (insert complaints here)". Basically, those who marry without knowledge of their partner's bedroom qualities don't care too much if they find out later that their partner has no skill whatsoever. Those who marry with that knowledge marry for the sex, not the personality, and certainly do care later when they realize that their partner's bedroom qualities are their only good qualities.

You see, having never had sex, you haven't the slightest idea what you're talking about. Sex is a major part of any romantic relationship. If it isn't any good, the relationship suffers.

I think the big issue with the abstinence crowd is that they don't really know how bad sex can be. And it is possible for such problems to be unresolvable. Especially if one partner has a special preference that the other finds repugnant.

Well, you can't account for morons.

But marrying without knowing the personality of your partner intimately is on the same level as marrying without knowing the sexuality of your partner intimately. It is foolish to marry without knowledge of both.

Um, RC, you are aware that evolution is a CONTINUING process, and the earth CHANGES, and if God created everything "perfectly" it'd die the second the climate shifted?

It's observable fact that suboptimal traits are required in a population for continued survival. As they say, "one man's trash is another's treasure."

Old-earth creationism suffers greatly from this fact. The only way species could survive on an old earth as geologically active as ours would be either through evolution or through blatant divine intervention -- which puts the lie to free will.

Young-earth creationism, of course, is absurd; it requires one to believe in a divine or infernal trickster with near-omnipotent powers bent on confusing humanity. Under those conditions, science loses all meaning and humanity might as well exist in barbaric superstition.

Census of Spiderweb community in General

Member # 3149

I am a 17-year-old male in a steady relationship with an 18-year-old female. Within the year, I will graduate from high school and live somewhere in my birth city of Portland, Oregon, in the United States. Both my father and mother are of Irish and French-Canadian origin; on the maternal side, the Irish comes from the old Lynch family from whence the popular name for a mob hanging originated. I speak English and bad Francais etudiant, and am informed by the teachings of Lao-Tse, Gautama Buddha, and Malcalypse the Younger. (Hail Eris!)
I arrived in the Spiderweb community in late 1999, and have been on the internet since 1994 at least.
As far as I know, I am neither a septuagenarian nor an eskimo.

What is the best Disney movie? in General

SOME MANNER OF STEAMBOAT WILLIE

Is there one where Walt Disney is brutally disemboweled for being pond scum?

Actually, my favorite Disney film would have to be Mulan. It finally cemented in my mind just how formulaic Disney animations have become. Spunky main character who wants to act beyond her "place", sidekicks (often a small, eccentric one and a big, stupid one), hunky males with nonthreatening tenors, etc.

Disney is as American as Ford and McDonald's.

Most of those translations are plain-language translations or revisions of the two major Biblical translations: the Catholic translation (sold in the US as the New American Bible) or the King James translation. The most egregious offender is the Living Bible, which deliberately mistranslated sections referring to homosexuality.

Women are, in my experience, much more judgemental on appearance than men are. Or, at the very least, more open with their judgement.

Frankly, it bothers me. I wish women wouldn't spend all that time tearing each other apart. That time could be used for more productive activities, usually involving me and a tub of whipped cream.

Exile I has some issues with playability, but E2 and E3 are far superior to the Avernum remakes.

Exile II and Nethergate are by far Spiderweb's finest games.

I'm going to be disgusting and compare humans to industrial products here.

What people don't realize is that there are about 10% of humans who are, let's say, "release quality." For one reason or another, they are attractive, popular, and likely to date early and often. Now, nobody's perfect. Truth is, most of these 10% are simply flawed in other ways.

But 100% of the women pay attention to that 10% of men, and 100% of the men pay attention to that 10% of girls.

This is at least my experience -- that because Suzie Miss Perfect won't go out with me (obviously), I felt strongly that nobody would. I took the most difficult person to impress, stated as a fait accompli that she wouldn't go out with me, and assumed that that applied to all females.

Later, I found out every once in a while that the quiet girl in the corner that I had a crush on all year had the same for me. But it was always too late. C'est la vie.

Truth is, it all changes. Once you're in a relationship, the blinders come off. You can always see what people think of you -- everyone except your partner, of course, and the other people who matter -- but you always spot someone's crush a mile away. You play matchmaker, you flirt, and eventually you break up and the blinders go back on -- the apprehension comes back, and you won't believe your natural instinct for people.

So I'm not going to say "oh, be less shy." I got where I am by being quiet. Wu-wei is my companion, and it serves me well. Shy and modest is one step closer to the Way, as I see it.

----

Have you seen her face?
Got a face that could stop a clock
With that face I'm sure to let it stop
To look her in the eyes
Dead mother's mm??
Like jewels so un-mm??
She's still so close to my reach
If I call, if I call at all
Any time at all, any time at all, any time at all, any time at all
So the story goes
If thou take her for a ride
With his moneybag by my side
She'd be knowin' it's the only way to go
So I show my face
And I can hear her face smile
But I left her inside of a mile
'Cause I can tell she's a joke, she's a joke, she's a joke
So the story goes
He's a whore -- I'll do anything for money
He's a whore -- With the things you like to eat
He's a whore -- Well, the stories I could tell
He's a whore -- And I'm a moron as well
I'm a whore -- He'll do anything for money
I'm a whore -- Because he goes anywhere
I'm a whore -- He'll do anything for money
I'm a whore
And so the story goes
I think I'll take her for a ride
With this moneybag by my side
A gigolo is the only way to go
Ohh, whoa, ohh

Stop being such a goddamn drama queen and act your age.

Seriously, this is the kind of crap I expect from irritatingly precocious 13-year-olds, but not from someone your age. If Spiderweb was any nicer, it'd be "Kumbaya Land for Sensitive Hippies."
