Reminds me of my "DAMN big surprise he hasn't had his liscense revoked yet" signature from a while back. I might use that one again, actually. I'm bored of the Ned Ryerson one. I know! Let's talk about Radiohead, House, AND what my new signature should be!!

Originally the year the world was supposed to end was 668 or something, but the monk the person was dictating this to wrote down the wrong number and wrote 666 instead; or so the story goes. :nice: edit: Ah wait, no, it was originally 616, I believe; my bad.

That's okay, Paul, just sharpen those persnal insults skills and you'll be ready to hang with the best of us :P You can practice on me if you like.

How bout THEM apples? Chris could to a LOT worse than look like Hugh in eighteen years :wink3:

Or you can choose both sides! Like, watch THIS!!: I like Radiohead; ALSO I like House in addition to liking Radiohead. I'm such a multitasker!! :smug:

You never heard it because the clerical error happened at least a thousand years ago. Actually I only heard that on the History channel but I still think it's true.

I'm sorry, Paul. *pat* But really, if you go into a thread with arguing you better be armed well enough to take a comment like "good job Sherlock" WITH a :P after it. We are vary serious about arguing here.

Wow, Sherlock, I didn't notice :P It doesn't look like anybody's going to give an inch on this issue but I suppose we're going to keep trying :rolleyes:

Unless you make it public.

UH OH :stunned: Idk, I just felt like making fun of religion. I really donno if it's devililsh or not. I don't really think it is. The number of the beast was s'posed to be 668 or something anyway; it was just a clerical error, somebody miscopied it. Hey, I made a pun by accident! Cuz, like, it was a clerical error.... made by clerics. Get it?

It's especially what you'd expect if you were messing with the results :whip: *slanderslander*

Brooooke! Let's change the subject; Paul can still talk about Radiohead but me and Brooke are gonna talk us about some House! :wacko: (well if she doesn't want to I'll talk about Radiohead but whatever...)(or I could talk about Radiohead and House.... ahh now there's an idea! :D) I actually haven't watched House in a while :shame: I need to go watch an episode. :escaping:

Rong. Anyway since you didn't make the poll public there's no way of telling if somebody is messing with the poll for their own weird narcissistic pleasure anyway.

Exactly, if it were only that that damn theocratic state was a shade more tolerant, everything could be made of bunnies and rainbows there, too!!

That organization is part of the people who would get beaten up at the five-and-ten-cent store, though. Or they would if they wore KKK hoods. Those people are not common, Paul. You can tell cuz their website is so damn ugly :dozey: If they had a bunch they'd probably have a web designer who would make a pretty White Supremacist homepage.

But that isn't something I would ever do, so you can just shut up. Anyway, the job of a government is to appease its people so that it will not be removed; so indirectly it is individuals making the laws; or the majority, at least. Thankfully intolerant people are not in the majority in most first-world countries, so our governments are infinitely nicer and filled with more bunnies and rainbows then, say, Iran's. (And Iran is essentially a theocratic state anyway.)

I'm just one of those radically liberal dangerous people, I guess. But seriously, if someone wore a KKK uniform into the local five-and-ten-cent store they'd probably get mobbed by patrons of said store anyway. I'm pretty sure not many people would really wear a KKK uniform even if they were allowed to.

I don't really want to talk here but I suppose I will anyway... Let's talk about something important! Like... Radiohead!! :dance:

Woah woah woah. No, it's definitely a choice to cover your face with something; it's not your choice if the government of your country of choice punishes you if you do so. Ergo, by telling women not to wear a burqa you are forcing your choice upon them, ergo you are just as bad as anyone else who does this; you just think you aren't because you think you're right. But who are you to say what's right and what's not?

Probably because 13 is one of those devilish numbers.

Mark, you can still invent your own tags. What are you smoking, man? :thinking:

It doesn't matter what the Muslim countries/Taliban/what-have-you might make their citizens do, as part of the free world it is a first-world country's responsibility to give freedom to people. D'you think the Muslim countries would be any better about their restrictive rules if we didn't set an example?? It's similar nuclear disarmament -- nobody's going to get rid of their nukes unless everyone else does to. And about the Nazi/KKK uniform/nakedness point Mark has recycled about five times -- hell, I think people should be able to wear those uniforms, too. Good luck getting any services or jobs if you're walking down the street with a swastika on your biceps, but we have no reason to disallow this, especially because both the Nazi party and the Ku Klux Klan are virtually defunct now. And going around naked certainly won't hurt anybody, either, so that's just an awful argument. This is clothing we're talking about. (Or lack thereof, I suppose.) It's not going to hurt anybody. It's only a matter of you deciding to force your personal tastes and beleifs down others' throats, or not. Last time I checked dominating people into accepting your ideas was a bad thing, but I suppose it's just a-OK if you're convinced your ideas are the right ones, or that's the way it would seem. :shifty:

Wow, I'm amazed that so many people are with me on this issue!! :nice: See, Ian, you should get rid of them. Fo sho.
