Yeah, it wasn’t Pentecostal, but had a name. I wish I could remember it. The kids were nice but always were tired and had that look of abuse. I don’t think they were abused like hitting, but they all had to take care of the younger ones or themselves. They were always tired. Funny, but tired.

The were like the quiverfulls but didn’t call themselves that. I can’t remember the name. They believed every child that could be born, should be born. It was their duty.

I dig the Unified High School playing “Born in the USA” and “God Bless America” at around 28 minutes.

I knew a large family with 10 kids growing up. The last 4 called themselves the “too manies”.

I thought I saw comments from you, but there are people taking other’s names on different instances. A name doesn’t mean much anymore. I wish sh.itjust.works would move to piefed and we could have a tagging system.

I really hope you’re not a working scientist.

If you compare a 2 year old and a really smart dog, they’re about the same in their reasoning skills. So yeah, I’ve had arguments with 2 year olds and dogs.
Again, you’re saying you personally haven’t had those experiences, so you might be an outlier.

None of them have ever exhibited the ability of abstraction.
First of all, isn’t science always testing and studying? Why and how can you make that statement so confidently? You don’t know this for sure.
Second, couldn’t this just be bias on your part? I’ve had dogs that could speak our language the best they could. Granted, these were very smart dogs, so they might have been outliers. But your dogs could have been dumb as rocks too.
Third, you’re like that archaeology meme with the obsidian in the rafters. It might just be you.

But it is nothing more than symbolic association at its absolute best
Have you ever had a pet that you were close to? I think you’re right that it’s cruel to study them though.

I think you’re right. But why?
- Comment on My life has been way better since I started keeping a cursory view of headlines once a day 5 days ago:
The headlines are the worst thing to only read. Sometimes they’re flat out wrong and other times you’re being lead by the nose. Headlines are for an emotional response and/or propaganda.
If you read the first 3 paragraphs, that’s usually okay. If it seems like they’re fluffing it up, then try 3/4’s of the way down and skim the last paragraph.

I should have shared the wikpedia, it explains it better. Here is a good pic that shows how it’s referenced loosely. Memes don’t always make a ton of sense and that’s why everyone is groaning in this thread because it’s being referenced again. It’s kind of like a Rick Roll at this point:

So you don’t collect points or your employer doesn’t? We had certain hotels because we got better deals through bulk, and the employees got to keep the points. Not adding up or you’re kind of doing it wrong.
- Comment on We're going backwards 3 weeks ago:
oh, okay buddy. You go on 40 different trips, but don’t duplicate any of the brands. Sure.
- Comment on We're going backwards 3 weeks ago:
I stay in hotels 30 to 40 nights a year and, yea, just no. Most of it’s the opposite.
You get that treatment because of that. Us plebs who go once or twice a year don’t get treated like that, lol. I used to fly a shit ton, there is a difference.

I was just going to say that. I think in every country 36 or 37% will just believe random crazy shit and/or be fucking with the poll taker.

I’m thinking that they told him it was the Nobel Peace Price and he didn’t know it was the Soccer Peace Prize. He said it was the prize of his life.
