JohnRich 4 #26 March 23, 2006 QuoteI'd like to see what passes for science in this study... There's not much science to it - it just makes a splashy headline. I would have dubbed the thread: "Republicans are Whiny Babies!" Here's the relevant discrediting info, written way down in the article:"...personality is not the only factor that determines political leanings. For instance, there was a .27 correlation between being self-reliant in nursery school and being a liberal as an adult. Another way of saying it is that self-reliance predicts statistically about 7 per cent of the variance between kids who became liberal and those who became conservative. (If every self-reliant kid became a liberal and none became conservatives, it would predict 100 per cent of the variance). Seven per cent is fairly strong for social science, but it still leaves an awful lot of room for other influences, such as friends, family, education, personal experience and plain old intellect."

miked10270 0 #29 March 23, 2006 Sorry mate - Your post is irrelevant in this joke thread! Now... What's your Ideal Job in Mediaeval Times ? These are called "The Good Old Days" because Noisy Americans confined themselves to dancing around totem poles & living in TeePees where they belong! Iran & Iraq were the centre of civilisation under The Abussid Caliphate, and Europe had a stable co-operative government called The Borgia Family! Mike.

rehmwa 2 #32 March 23, 2006 QuoteDumbest thread ever. Oh no, there's been much worse. I particularly like it when PJ, Amazon, Kallend, Narci, Steel, and Rushmc get together and just throw darts at each other. Sometimes it's hard to even remember what the original post was all about. Doesn't matter though, them's good attack/counterattack PA-blatant postings. It's really an art form. ...

You guys are in a totally different class and that you'd put me in there I think makes your post just now one that I'm super proud of. Heck, I've been called out as an 'ineffective peacemaker', so this is even more of a surprise. I'd be proud to be in there if you all would have me. But thanks for the 'cute' thing. It means a lot. ...

It still looks like a PA per post somtimes, but the more I understand your humor, the more I appreciate it and can see why you say think it's harmless. (it really is harmless, frankly, I think you're sweet and tough and confident all at the same time FWIW. I'd skydive with you any day) GRRR - it's snowing again. We need to dry off the runway for the season, not keep it covered. Gotta go you guys. Fun stuff ...

ROK 0 #39 March 24, 2006 The following stolen and bastardized from a post by STEEL: All people are born female LIBERALS the presence of higher amounts of testoserone LOGIC makes the clitorus BRAIN develop into a penis USABLE ORGAN and is eventually followed by all the other sexual CONSERVATIVE differences. Higher amounts of estrogen BULLSHIT develop more female LIBERAL characteristics all the way through puberty OLDAGE. > ties special no slip knot at top of leader < Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was lurking and just DYING laughing in that thread More like crying because you wish you had a penis. Still sadly for you, you know better than any of the rest that having the big diesel truck still does not give you a penis. If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass.

DUDE all that bodybuilding stuff must do some kind of wierd shit to thought processes... Why have just one when I can get to sample so many and use them as I see fit....if its too small throw that one back in the pool of wannabe studs and find a bigger one... with a man attached to it that knows what he is doing with it. But having your GF show up... that was priceless. Oh and on the big diesel truck thing.. I have mine to go hunting and haul the trailer... I have mine to take my 25' boat out to the coast to go fishintg.... I have mine to haul firewood and building supplies...I certainly dont give it a thought about how it relates to small penis size.
