Slapshot: The entire sentence is, "After examining the DNA profiles of almost 1,000 criminals, two particular genes were found to be associated with violent, but not non-violent, behaviors."
In other words, the genes are associated with violent behaviors, but the genes are not associated with...
My thoughts were pretty much: Why didn't he try to find the solution on the internet like a normal person? Surely there are people who could unlock this iPad who are in no way affiliated with Apple. There's a lesson for the kids...never try to do things legally when the illegal alternative is as...
I work in a restaurant, and I specifically make sure to give everyone only one extra napkin. Then I intentionally mutter racist shit under my breath and wait for their reactions.
Then, after that, I give my customers to-go cups for their coffee, and I tell them to only pick up the cups from...
At first my only reaction was, what the fuck is an electrical scalpel? But those apparently do exist, so I'm just going to take the rest of the article at its word. Everything explodes in China.
You, Firecat, are crazy rubbish. This news article (despite its slightly misleading title) is great. It even links to the actual article in question, which has, you know, numbers and stuff: http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0070585
The idea is pretty...
Words cannot express how deeply saddened I am to read that the medal was in fact made of turkey bacon. If I were this guy, I would be fucking insulted. Goddamn bullshit imitation bacon. Unacceptable.
Did I imply either of them were? Or say that outright? You sir have an overactive imagination and/or unusually high standards for these forums all of a sudden.
...Firecat, I'm going to go eat some bacon right now, just to spite you.
Yes, but my two thoughts were distinctly separate from each other, so I gave them separate posts. Is that acceptable to you Varine?
edit: I mean, okay, they were both about bacon, but the impact of the first post would have been lessened had it been edited to contain the content of the second...
I get tired of buying bacon. I get tired of cooking it. I get tired of the physical act of chewing it, sometimes. But I never get tired of eating it, Firecat.
Never.
I had bacon the past three days, and I'm going to have some more bacon today. Right now, in fact. You can never have too much bacon.
Wasn't this story on these forums at some point in the past? http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/05/09/105-year-old-woman-says-bacon-keeps-her-alive/
That shit is too funny. They should have added grape soda to the menu.
Firecat, it's offensive because it draws attention to a negative racial stereotype that assumes all Black people love fried chicken and watermelon. It doesn't promote awareness of Black historical figures or their key roles...
Yeah, I mean, you don't have to concede...I just won't either, hahah. Definitely enjoy the debate. Like you said, agree to disagree. Last thing I'll say on the matter is I really think you're giving the news and media too little credit...even if they don't change anyone's mind about any issue...
Firecat agrees with you. For me, that's a satisfying conclusion to this debate.
Yeah, I understand where you're coming from. There are really only a few points about which we disagree here, and I still completely disagree with you on those points, but oh well. Happens once in a while I guess...
To the bold -- there are actually very few people spouting such misinformation (google things like "cannabis as a cure-all," "cannabis a panacea," whatever...it's mostly cannabis as a cure for cancer, and cannabis for use as a tincture, which would be significantly safer than smoking at least...
I mean...quite a number of things can cause underlying conditions to surface, and I would still argue that the condition, rather than the thing triggering that condition, would be to blame. The person imbibing these substances (or whatever) should be aware of their condition and not do anything...
This is so laughably absurd.

From my understanding, GMOs are largely undesirable not because they're inherently unhealthy but for a number of other reasons:
1) They might have other side effects we're unaware of -- that is, although we've supposedly changed only one small part of the organism, it's possible that another...
