  1. It brings to mind the quote from Margaret Atwood — 'Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them.'

  2. I suppose I was being facetious. It is well worth considering if social skills should be taught as part of the general curriculum. I can see pros and cons (I would have run a mile-I was "expelled" from the Boy Scouts for failing the tidyness test but others might have benefitted)

  3. Nobody you vote for will change that, nor can they nor should they. Find a hobby or a sport and socialize.

  4. No drugs remove memories. Hiding from your trauma isn’t sustainable. Find help. Process it. Accept it. It’s part of your story and cannot be ripped out like some chapters worth of pages torn from a book.

  5. Yeah. The sci-fi equivalent of degaussing a sub. My friend didn’t want to add yet another made-up particle to the lexicon It was originally “exotic antibaryon sweep” (some un-named metastable particle) but it was edited, which caused some controversy but would be what the tech folks would probably call it http://blogs.scienceforums.net/swansont/archives/1043

  6. Are you by any chance using translation software? If so it is not very good; I think "technobabble" is the correct definition for the above.

  7. I agree. The political right and maga-class has been getting beyond ridiculous in ostracizing people who refuse to tow the party line and repeat the lies, casting out anyone deemed to be "others." It demands a level of purity nobody can ever maintain, and it's pretty sad that their views can't hold up to even remedial scrutiny.
