Such as?

Well, pretty much everything. The Congress ignoring everything that doesn't translate to money or votes, President's office working to lock people up, political prisoners held with no justification without process, like Bradley Manning.... how is US different than China, exactly, apart from the brand of ideals it professes to have but doesn't follow?

Chinese people have jobs? And presumably a lot more cancer.

In all seriousness, though, Congress is always stupid; that happens when a minority of the population ever votes, a minority of those people ever bother to learn a damn thing about the people running, and a minority of those people aren't misinformed by shitty reporting and political opinion shows pretending to be news. I doubt most Americans can even name the person who represents them in Senate or the House, let alone who's running next election and what they all stand for.

[www.cbsnews.com] Manning appears to have been charged, [www.msnbc.msn.com] for a few things, and it was my understanding that the military puts their own through a different process than the rest of us anyway. I'm not sure why you think the President's office is somehow making unjustified detention of people they don't like a priority. It's not like the government can afford to hold prisoners anyway.

Though for that matter, they can somehow afford to lend money to banks at virtually no interest even though they themselves borrow at interest.

Fuck it, we're all going to hell anyway. Might as well start collecting sticks to roast marshmallows.

I learned that GPU fans are quite brittle and snap off if you so much are look at them wrong. Also learned you can pretty much super glue anything back together and make it stronger than it was. HA, take that newegg!

I learned that mixing hazelnut and cinnamon with ones coffee blend makes for a great drink.

I didn't learn anything yet, but I'm sure as hell going to learn on monday how deadly procastrination can be....(IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Sixty five is the new middle aged man. These days people are talking about the young-old, that is ages 70-75, and those over 75 as the old-old. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

What do now you call a guy now in his forties (that used to be the start of the middle ages) then? - Adult? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

There are plenty of guys in their forties who still don't act like adults. It'll take a serious case of hemorrhoids to slow them down.

Well, technically he's in his 50s, but the point stands.

Is he drag racing? Or is it like a 25mph ride and he just looks like that naturally?

He was test driving a tiny car with a giant engine, I forget which one. It was a "boutique" car, anyway.

I learned today that cab drivers on my city are charging extra just because of christmas.

good thing I barely use their services.

That there are quite a lot more gay guys at my college than I once realized.

Just how do you find something like that out?
I despise the gay community. It's just a meat market for sex-oriented wannabe-relationships in my eyes..... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

You probably just dropped like 50 points in Rob's book.

It was the Ariel Atom. I love that show.

Today, I learned of the existence of "Titanic II", the movie. Probably the most glorious film ever made.

I learned that one of my uncles and his son have a very strained relationship.

On a less depressing note, I also learned that I enjoy reading pulp adventure/detective stories. (The ones from the 20's and 30's)

I thought it was the Atom. That itty bitty car is still in the upper echelons of their Lap Times board.

I just learned that the next Super Sentai is going to be called Gobusters and they're going to have sunglasses.

Yeah, like straights don't ever do shit like that at all.

I just learned someone I respect very much, who is an Atheist like myself, believes in karma. I suddenly lost a little bit of respect for them.
