Quote from: Wikipedia
Over 30 years ago the two men stationed at the California Institute of Technology began pushing for the use of urchins as a model organism due to their easy availability, high fecundity, and long lifespan.

Edit2:  I like that the EU has established MINIMUM alcohol levels for stuff like this.
By the people, for the people. Truly the EU is the salvation of mankind.

Delete your browser history, that should do the trick.

Of course they have. How else would they express their frustration at being denied muffins?

A fee is more difficult to enforce, I think.

Next time someone opens up a competition, I say we spam them with Facey McFaceboat. Much more creepy.

Rolan, your drunk posts are great reading. Please never learn restraint :3

Women too, if they would, you know, talk to me.
That's why it's called skirt-chasing, and not 'shooting skirts in a barrel'. Maybe also because that's sort of a Frankenstein metaphor, but still.

Same here. My one sister used to get very annoyed at me at the breakfast table, because it's much stronger in the mornings. She has it too - her orthodontist at one point told her not to do it on purpose, because it wears out the ligaments. And you definitely don't want to have to explain to a nurse why exactly you no longer have control over the lower half of your face.

that chick
This. Very much this. It's a big reason I'm such a skirt-chaser.

Whut. Why would he do that? And why did nobody manage to stop him?

Also, you pointed out that other media is just as complicit as the nytimes, I didn't address that ... which means I accepted the point implicitly. [...] The only reason for singling out the nytimes is because it was previously mentioned in this thread as a bastion of integral journalism.
Hey, I only asked whether it was universally accepted as such. One can only make assessments like that up to American stupidity.

Also: Never assume malice when economic incentives will suffice. Which is more likely: All of the US media agreeing in a vast conspiracy to ignore something as obscure as UNASUR*, or the intended audience simply not giving a shit? Now, I don't want to pull the brakes on your anti-imp train, but it sort of feels like you found a couple loose bits of straw and are now warning of the big scarecrow uprising...

*Which, I might add, is very far away indeed from a South American version of the EU if folks over there still go to the brink of war on occasion.

Poopsmithing at the medieval level requires an impressive physique. Your average intertubes denizen probably is much more flabby.

Wait, NYT is not center left? I always thought they were held in high regard, journalistically if not politically, by pretty much everyone who should be allowed to vote... IMO a publication is no longer centrist when a significant portion of the reading populace consider it a propaganda machine instead of a news organization.

What SHOULD be controversial is government getting directly involved in marriage in the first place.
This. Interestingly both the far-left and (relatively) far-right portions of my friends at university emphatically agree with this: The latter because they don't like gay marriage, and the former because they don't want discrimination against poly people.
