some people do not possess the ability to assimilate, especially when they emigrate to this country at a late age. my grandpa was an exception; came here in his late 50's and learned how to speak english. but most peopel from poor countries have trouble with this.

Most of Magic exists because science.
This doesn't even make sense. It wouldn't be Magic then.

Haha yeah. I think magic is meant to be stuff that defies science or physical laws, but it's just illusion and slight of hand. Good magic should have you completely baffled by how it was done, and whilst there is always an explanation, I don't think it has to be specifically 'scientific'.

if it can happen, then doesn't that mean it's part of the physical laws? it's more about our understanding of physical laws in relation to what can happen.

numbers are skewed.. even if all 8 million were english speakers, that's still a drop in the ocean. not to mention that muslim people, much like asians, keep their parents with them.. many of them bring their parents over to live with.
2624  Other / Off-topic / Re: What's your view on cannabis? on: April 29, 2014, 03:52:22 PM
i would say that the person on weed is probably safer for driving. high people tend to be more cautious; while people on alcohol feel more "courageous."
2625  Other / Off-topic / Re: Religion Poll on: April 29, 2014, 03:42:17 PM
so 4 million muslim people in the western world.. that's barely anything, especially considering that much of those 4 million probably don't even speak english or have not assimilated.
2626  Other / Off-topic / Re: Religion Poll on: April 29, 2014, 03:37:28 PM
well, muslim people tend to not speak english as their primary language.

it's primitive because it is animalistic. a primate that sees something that does not look like its; so it becomes aggressive towards it.. which it thinks is for the sake of its survival.

revisionists, man. after shit happens, it seems like people fashion the evidence to fit a narrative about nostradamus. i only hear of his predictions after an event occurs.. wtf is with that?

The US government being the largest holder of bitcoin is kind of a good thing.  That way the US will not ban it.  Think if China had that many bitcoin right now.  We wouldn't be in this mess.  The worse thing that could happen is that the US totally dumps and then bans it. 

they should just give it to the CIA so they can use it to bribe the people they already do.

I am rooting for the Atlanta Hawks. I hope that Pero Antic and DeMarre Carroll, with help from Paul Millsap and Kyle Korver will allow the Hawks to smash their opponents.  Grin

the hawks might have the worst fanbase in the entire league.. you are a rare breed.

So what :p spending 200days on a forum :p just tells me how much he loves this community :p or how much he hates his life..! but in both cases I'll congratulate him..! :p 20K posts are not easy to achieve .!
200/3 = 66.6 days per year. He spent about 20% of his year here.
With RitzGrandCasino.com signature program you would have made 0.0013BTC x 20000 = 26BTC Cheesy
That's a lot money :O
It's not a lot even if BTC was worth $1000; 26 000$ over 3 years is pocket money.

i did the math.. it was 18.2% of his entire life on the forum for 3 years, or 27% of his waking time for 3 years on this forum.
2632  Other / Off-topic / Re: What Song are you Listening To? on: April 29, 2014, 07:51:11 AM
ha, i like indie.. i prefer it over listening to pop. i like indie songs that sound something different, the kind of music where you aren't able to predict the next beat. i don't absolutely hate pop, but it's so bad these days. the only pop artist that i think is great/legendary today is.. adele. it's catchy with a whole lot of soul, unlike other pop artists today who abandon the latter.

is it just me or does anyone else find that there can be songs that you don't like.. even if you feel they are catchy? that's how i feel about pop.. it's got a lot of catch, but every song seems to be the derivative of another, so it feels like i already know every damn pop song out there.

one of the worst movies ive watched recently was frozen. omg i didnt expect this movie to be a musical. yeah i loved the story but fuck do i hate musicals and i had no idea and i had to sit through it with my gf. atleast i got head later tho

I want to see it after everybody had raved about it, but I feel the same; I really dislike musicals.

Haha. The only musicals I like are probably South Park: The Movie and Team America. I didn't even know Sweeney Todd was a musical.

mary poppins is a musical, isn't it?

Largest dose was 60 hits.  Received a vial of liquid and took 20.  Thought they were 1 hit/drop, turned out they were 3. Grin

Horrible. Normally LSD is a drug on which you can't overdose (The lethal dose of LSD that would kill 50% of average sized humans is estimated at about 12 mg). This guy will probably become the first one to overdose on LSD. An average hit is 0.08 mg. So 60 hits means 4.8 mg. Quite close.

i really doubt he'll overdose on LSD. 60 hits is not even "thumb print" level, and many people survive that. i do think dank is fried though. seems like long-term use can lead to psychosis.
2635  Other / Off-topic / Re: I'm tired of the United States on: April 29, 2014, 07:33:17 AM
Being from small-town Canada, I'd happily switch TO the United States.

I love Tech, specifically ecommerce. Canada Postage is too expensive, ecommerce dried out within Canada real quick. Competition is too difficult when you have the states right below you and Canada not trying to advance.

But as with most countries, there are pros and cons. Issue is people only look at the cons before looking at the actual pros of, for example, not being in Africa.

i like canada. if you came to the U.S. you would probably have to learn how to deal with so many dicks. canadians are really nice, communal type people.. and people more educated than most americans to boot.
2636  Other / Off-topic / Re: Worst Movies You Have Ever Watched on: April 29, 2014, 07:29:40 AM
why the fuck do people even like musicals? seriously.. it's just a bunch of people prancing and singing. i didn't like that johnny depp movie about the barber/butcher or whatever.

+1.

Me too hate these good-for-nothing musicals. Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street was the last one of this type that I watched. Could have been much better, had they made it as a normal movie.

i watched juno before sweeny todd, so i wasn't too perturbed. i walked out of sweeny though, one of the few times i've ever done that. i mean, i'd sit through most movies i think.. but then again, if i saw twilight, i would start getting angry with how stupid the movie is  Cheesy
2637  Other / Off-topic / Re: What Song are you Listening To? on: April 29, 2014, 07:18:27 AM
portugal. the man - sleep forever

I've never been able to get into this band. Every single one of their albums just completely bored me. Haven't listened to their latest album yet though.

i like their lyrics - mostly mocking how stupid society is. and sleep forever is a great song for cynics like me who live in their own dark mental space.

don't you like metal anyways? i want to use the word fag, and not the "cigarette" kind either  Grin

Nickelback How You Remind Me. I know everyone hates this band but I love this song.

I think they're just over-exposed.

They are now, plus their last couple of albums have been shit. They kinda just went all sleazy sexist hard rock when that's not what their first few albums were about at all. Chad Kroeger seems like such a hypocrite now.

i don't think they are hated for their overexposure. they are hated because they are an extremely successful band yet their music has no individuality or creativity. their music is just like a commodity, so generic. and then you see them wildly popular  and even though their music is catchy yet so trite.. they rehash the same music styles and don't even go through evolution. it's the same reason why people in the 70's/80's hated the eagles.

i have really negative views towards "pop" music and i'd say nickelback is one of the most poppy rock bands ever.

i did 10 days time in about 35 days.. i was so burned out. no way i'd go back there again.
2639  Other / Off-topic / Re: Religion Poll on: April 29, 2014, 06:52:34 AM
if i were god, i would totally look down at all of you human beings.. and just think "man, fuck this.. i'm not gonna stick around."

holy fucking shit, how can you spend 200 days on a forum.. out of 3 years? let's do the math.

you spent 200 days out of a total 1095 days.. good for 18.2% of your total living time for 3 years. but if you consider that people are awake for maybe 16 hours a day and asleep for 8.. that's 66% of your 1095 days = 722 days of being awake. so 200/722 is about 27.2% of your waking life was spent, per day, browsing this forum for 3 years straight.

i think spending that much time on this forum is unhealthy and will make you go crazy.
