The questions-not-worth-their-own-thread question thread IX

[Tani Coyote]

Why do you people keep responding to such statements like that? The baiting is rather obvious.

Is that about my response to Zelig or the response to Tekee?

If the Tekee one, I can clearly agree... but it's fun to ask silly questions just to see how many people will answer, I suppose.

Satan possessed the camera. Simple.

What do you mean? The vet says he's a healthy weight but he's old (at least 13 or 14) so he looks fat.

I word "redneck" insult?

Not always. It's sometimes a source of pride.

What this world needs is a few more rednecks
Some people ain't afraid to take a stand
What this world needs is a little more respect
For the Lord and the law and the workin' man
We could use a little peace and satisfaction
Some good people up front to take the lead
A little less talk and a little more action
And a few more rednecks is what we need

I was raised on beans and cornbread
And I like my chicken fried
Yes, I drive a pickup truck
And I'm full of American pride
I keep a Bible on my table
I got a flag out on my lawn
And I don't believe in mindin'
No one's business but my own

Now they're tryin' to take my guns away
And that would be just fine
If you take ‘em away from the criminals first
I'll gladly give ya mine
And I don't mind payin' taxes
But it makes my temper itch
When my hard earned money goes
To make some politician rich

What most people call a redneck
Ain't nothin' but a workin' man
And he makes his livin'
By the sweat of his brow
And the calluses on his hands
Now you intellectuals may not like it
But there ain't nothin' that you can do
Cause there's a whole lot more of us common-folks
Then there ever will be of you

Makes sense, just as many other groups have adopted slurs with pride(blacks with the n word, Hispanics with several terms for illegal immigrants, gays with the British term for cigarette, etc.).

...provided it's said by a member of the group, anyway...

Yours.

Delicious. My goal is complete!

Off-topic: but why does your avatar remind me of my SAT tutor...

...Actually, that kind of is a question, so not off-topic, technically.

Why do you keep asking the same question every few months except with slightly different pics ?

 

[Shekwan]

How do you know when somebody is inviting you to something out of politeness rather than that they genuinely want you to come?

The reason I ask is because a former housemate who moved due to work has invited me round to see her new place. I find this a bit odd as I was never really all that close with her, but we did get on quite well. I am attracted to her, but never made any moves because I lived with her and couldn't afford the drama of failure.

So I'm wondering if its a genuine invite, or a "come round some time" nicety. Opinions?

Nothing unusual. The camera's flash merely illuminated the cat's tapetum lucidum.

well, did you make an appointment or not?

 

[Shekwan]

Haven't yet. At some point tonight I'll respond.

Probably will though. Nothing to lose, plus the fact I'm nosy and want to see her new apartment. I've already decided that my opinion will be that its not as good as her old one.

Even if her new one allows certain things to transpire?

That would skew things a bit alright. I'd have to put it down more to my raw sexual attractiveness than any other factors if it came to it though.

 

[Yared]

Well, did she invite just you or did she invite other people as well?

Ok everyone thanks for not answering my question in this thread... i ended up asking my biology teacher and she said, it's because DNA is composed of protein and we can digest the protein. If it wasn't like this, it is possible that DNA from the foods we eat could affect our DNA.

SEE I am smart And we all had a good laugh at the girl who asked if trees have DNA

Typically, how long does it take for a cruise ship to cross the Atlantic Ocean?

Extremely unlikely at best. Your body is designed to prevent things like this. If you get cells injected into you, you don't take on their DNA.

What is the best way to increase Youtube viewership, without resorting to the exploitation of money for sponsorship like the spoiled child I am?

Spam it on your Snoic fanboy sites.

 

[Genocidicbunny]

Because your stomach breaks down the DNA. As far as your stomach is concerned, it's just another foodstuff.

Take a class on basic biology sometime.
