You are confusing the word "fetish" with the word "kink."  Don't feel too bad, it's a common mistake.  Even the smarty-pants liberals on DailyKos do it all the time.

But once you know the actual, completely non-sexual, definition of fetish (an power object imbued with mystical substances) you start to realize how foolish (and perverse) misuse of the term makes one appear to those with error-free vocabularies.

Now stay off those naughty websites before they further corrupt and degrade your powers of articulation.   

The threat of annihilation or oppression needn't be "constant" (that's merely your strawman).

Life is intrinsically unsafe, and the price of liberty is eternal vigilance. 

In America, we are willing to pay that price because we are free and sovereign individuals.

In Europe and Australia, the slavish rabble have never risen up to secure their liberty and are unwilling to be eternally vigilant. 

Magna Carta was a good start but unfortunately there was no real follow through.  The French Revolution was admirable but they bungled it with Egalitarian Statism.

Enjoy your child-like feelings of safety, all warm and snuggly and resonsibility-free, protected by your benevolent owner, the Queen. 

Wasn't her Christmas speech lovely?   

I prefer Freedom and its concomitant responsibility, danger, and stress.

That's an easy one.  FirstAssScent is obviously the most stupid in the gun debate.

The poor thing doesn't even realized that only individuals have rights.  It's very sad, so I ignore it.

Well that settles it.  Guns are Evil objects, imbued with malevolent powers by their very nature.  Humans are powerless to prevent harm in their presence.

Even worse than drugs!

This so-called "headache" is merely caused by your lack of faith in TimeCube!

Unlike Mr. Calore, I don't write for a Condé Nast sellout dinosaur media printed magazine, so I needn't troll for pageviews.

Instead, here is a more accurate and honest memetic lifecycle survey.

   Wired: Vice.  They stole the few marketable bits of Wired and added gobs of Gawker style snark.  That's why they're still growing and selling ad space.  

   Tired: Newsweek.  They've living been on borrowed time (and oligarch money) since 1998, when Drudge scooped their embargoed Lewinsky bombshell.

   Expired: Wired.  Long past irrelevant, their 1996 highwater mark was Bruce Sterling reporting on mud-covered hippies and fun-loving Maker types at Burning Man.

I almost feel sorry for Wired.  It must be hard to keep selling buggy whips when all the kids on your lawn have TOR-enabled Android phones to browse SilkRoad.

Got my second set of 3 Maples.  All are nice and shiny.  Will buy more in the future!

376GH!?

great, best upgrade ever  

Japan and Germany are among the worst, but not the only countries of defenseless impotent men that the gun-grabbers love to cite as a model for the USA to follow.

They also use the UK and Australia/New Zealand to 'prooove' that gun grabbing is legitimate and works, forgetting that the people in those places are not free, having never fought or won a revolution and War of Independence, and are thus still serfs, peons, and subjects of the Crown.

OTOH, Americans own themselves and are not property of any Sovereign King or Queen.  Hence our concomitant right to keep and bear arms, plus its associated costs and benefits.

Japan, Germany, and the rest of our paper statelets are lucky we didn't feed them to the Chinese Dragon or Russian Bear, instead preferring to teach them about democracy, baseball, and value-added manufacturing.

We'll give the samurai their swords and the Hun his axe back when the time is right, unlike the Royalists who will never allow the peasants to be armed.

Teh Future: OMG...it's full of trolls!

/We didn't listen

I had some trouble loading the 'my workers' tab and reported the issue.   

Dood got right on it and now the site is snappy as a tweeking turtle, whatever that means.   

And rejects are a thing of the past, thx to stratum.  Hooray for everything!   

I know you are not idiot (idiots don't appreciate Havana Club) but anything as unique and zany as a silver garlic bulb must have some wild story behind it.

antique roadshow that bizarre artifact.  It could be a relic, from the silver age of the Etruscan dynasty or whatever.

Edit:  Clicked the pic and noticed it's ugly.   Suggest melt and make 10 half oz rounds.

   Pics or it never happened! 

Can I just buy the silver garlic?

/fetish

PPS?  Check.

Stratum?  Check.

Low fee?  Check.

Works great.  What a nice pool!

I'm saw the same thing today, simultaneous crash on all rigs upon Stratum detection of a new block.

Thought it was Windo'hs Update at first, but that's disabled on rigs that still crashed.

Putting half the farm on 2.9.6 and half on 2.9.7-1 until it's sorted.

Nice bars.  Put them on BitMit with escrow and I promise to bid them up to spot.

Same problem, different user.

According to CGMiner, performance is amazing even without stratum!  But nothing shows up on the stats.   

How dare he challenge The Consensus!  His Holiness Al Gore will not be pleased; ManBearPig shall not be questioned.


This guy is awesome.  Pretty sure he did it for the lulz.   

C'est fantastique!   

This event marks the end of the beginning!

I found a mercury dime in the front yard of my old house!
