You wear underwear while reading MetaTalk?

I think I can safely say that this is the first time I've stopped reading a MetaTalk thread so I can change my underwear.

I could write a short script to read all of them for you. It'd probably only take a couple of hours to run.

Bush kept his campaign promises. Unfortunately, he didn't tell America what they were. They were promises made to cronies, billionaires, and fringe partisans, whispered in back rooms, and he kept every one.

I think I'm desensitized - I have to watch every ad that goes on air in the UK through my job - but I've seen far, far worse. Unfortunately we aren't allowed to make ads unacceptable through being bad.

This is worse

So, is there context for this? I kinda hope there isn't.

and as an additional note:

People like this always come to you and say "I'm better now, losing you changed me and I'm a better person." "please come back to me." "I'm lost without you" "Here take this (insert item you really like chocolate or flowers or a new kitten) as a token of my shame and regret"

These are all LIES.

Long distance marriage?

Come on. Why is everyone pretending this is normal.

Go, go, go! Start making your own world that doesn't have your XGF at the goddamn center of it, and grow up!

I love being a part of the AskMeFi almost-all-male 'fuck the bitch!' chorus. There's something nice about semi-socialized self-centered passive-aggressive resentful Internet-on-a-lonely-weeknight men unapologetically being, um, themselves. How can you not love it? It touches me in a very Fight Club-like, 'look at how... [more]

TPS. You know I love you, in that if-I-ever-meet-up-with-the-brothers-Hanson-in-NYC-you-will-hear-from-me-first kind of way. So please don't take this personally.

But I HATE fashion week.

Since my time in the industry, I've realized that most of what I learned about it can be best summarized by utilizing the ageless wisdom of one William Wonka. I will dispense these learnings, now...

A little nonsense now and... [more]

You could ask one of them. You could walk up to him and ask, maybe give him a euro. Maybe he'll push you on the metro tracks and a metro will run you over. And then maybe in a few weeks someone else will post a question here that goes:

I ride the Paris metro every day to get around the city, and I've only recently noticed a strange phenomenon. At two different metro stops I've seen homeless people repeating the word "eight" in English over and over again at... [more]
