What a pointless thing...But at least it's simple, I guess.
everything is pointless to one who doesnt understand my friend..
Everything is pointless in general, made more clear by understanding.
Still, being able to kill someone with one punch is a ridiculous and simple dream, man.
But I'm not judging you, Jim.
No, I wouldn't have done the same thing; I'm good at my job.
Even if you aren't on the clock, your own fuckups are your responsibility. The only time I wouldn't immediately clean up after myself is if I was far too busy to stop what I was doing at the time. Which occasionally happens in my job. But if I was on break (if I got breaks), I would get it right away, and that whole situation would be avoided.
However, if your manager sees the need to reprimand you for something, they shouldn't even do it jeeringly or in front of other employees, because it is unprofessional. But managers can be dicks. I personally just ignore the fact that they are dicks most of the time. The most reaction I ever really give is telling them I'm really busy at the moment. Other than that, I ignore and patronize.
I feel they are miserable enough human beings on their own.

Maybe Mr. Kimmy is trying to prove something. Like...

Or maybe they are trying to hold a position as a major player on the world stage.
Or are trying to take advantage of the world economic crisis to be the new badass on the block, so to speak.

On one hand, it is a time-honored cultural tradition, but on the other hand...it's a bunch of regular people running away from from half-ton powerhouse beasts with horns.
But only 14 people have died in the last century in the major encierro in Pamplona, meaning that you are statically pretty likely to make it through with your life, especially if you are young and in good shape.

this isn't a joke. i heard about this months ago. and about the anti-matter, read angels & demons by dan brownthe anti-matter shit in there is dead accurate
It's true, just like how Jesus and Tupac made a rap record together that has been covered up for years by a network of secret societies.
I think I would see it as hilarious, and would give one to a dog if I had one.
Although, it would be weird to wake up with one laying next to me on my pillow...

That might be my favorite gif ever.
I use it as often as I find remotely reasonable to do so.
also; lawl, Frank Miller writes terrible dialog.

Lol, if they really created anything more than a micro black hole we would be gone already. But realistically, the only types of black holes that the HLC has any hopes of creating would evaporate almost before you could see them. Not that it is likely it will ever create even such tiny black holes.Besides all of that, any black hole created by the HLC that doesn't dissolve instantly will have well more than the required escape velocity to escape the gravitational pull of earth. For objects that small, the escape velocity is something like only 10m/s, but particles in the HLC are moving at significant fractions of the speed of light. And even if you aimed the particles straight into the earth, a black hole that small would fall through earth without absorbing enough matter to slow it down. This is because it has such a tiny amount of mass that its event horizon would be nearly non existent - it would have to directly contact the nucleus of an atom in order to absorb it, which rarely happens in particle collisions.
In short, its just another April fools joke :roll:.
This is pretty much what I was going to say.
What an irritating "holiday"

There IS proof of alien life outside our planet; even if it's only bacteriological as far as we know.I don't know if we are the only intelligent beings in the entire universe, in the same way as I can't be sure about the existence of one or several gods whom might have create us.
Personally, I like to think that we are not alone; that there are other worlds, and countless possibilities for different kinds of lifes and thoughts. Anyway, I'm not so conceited to claim "this is the way it's supposed to be" without direct evidence.
It isn't conclusive proof, but you would be referring to NASA's investigation of Martian meteors, I'm guessing.
They didn't actually find life, explicitly, but they found certain evidence thereof.
Planetary scientist Dr. David McKay said in, I believe, 1996, "There is not any one finding that leads us to believe that this is evidence of past life on Mars. Rather, it is a combination of many things that we have found. They include Stanford's detection of an apparently unique pattern of organic molecules, carbon compounds that are the basis of life. We also found several unusual mineral phases that are known products of primitive microscopic organisms on Earth. Structures that could be microscopic fossils seem to support all of this. The relationship of all of these things in terms of location - within a few hundred thousandths of an inch of one another - is the most compelling evidence."
Dr. Everett Gibson, of the same team, said, "For two years, we have applied state-of-the-art technology to perform these analyses, and we believe we have found quite reasonable evidence of past life on Mars. We don't claim that we have conclusively proven it. We are putting this evidence out to the scientific community for other investigators to verify, enhance, attack -- disprove if they can -- as part of the scientific process. Then, within a year or two, we hope to resolve the question one way or the other."
Then in 2002, NASA released a statement in which they said a team of researchers, using the Magnetite Assay for Biogenicity (MAB) as a biosignature, concluded that, "one-quarter of the magnetite crystals embedded in the carbonates in Martian meteorite ALH84001 require the intervention of biology to explain their presence," according the lead researcher Kathie Thomas-Keprta. Basically, on earth, we would assume magnetotactic bacteria caused them, so we assume that they at one time existed on Mars.
There is, however NO proof that life exists NOW.
These studies suggest that extremely primitive life may have existed on Mars over 3 billion years ago.
tl;dr, some scientist dudes found some shit that made them lol and say bacteria and shit existed on Mars a long ass time ago, lawl.

now that i think bout it, i think these were posted already (--,)
You have to put text before the spoil box or it wont open.

My first time was at a christian camp, while everybody was singing at the bond fire, I busted my nut in the showers with a fellow girl camper.Spoiler:
Second time was after leaving a club called MO-2, trying to have sex while having a buzz is no fun.
I think that's my new favorite first-time story.
Probably because I wish it was mine.

wasn't this posted in IB like two days ago? and wasn't that post like 3 months late anyways?The original post here is over a month old now.
I'm guessing people started replying to this one because of that other thread, in which there was a link to this thread, previously posted.
A friend of mine showed me a Washington Post article recently that said moot(creator of 4chan) is now in debt about $20,000 and has yet to find any way of turning a profit from 4chan. He's just going further into debt by charging sever costs to credit cards to keep 4chan running. The first thing I thought was, why would this guy keep running himself into the ground to keep afloat a site that is generally considered the anus of the internet?
But the article also mentions that other sites are having trouble returning on their investments; even sites considered more "friendly" like Facebook.
So the second thing I thought was, is it even possible to make money on the internet without a tangible product to sell?
What do you folks think about that sort of thing?

Poole[moot]'s problem is the problem of the entire Internet, which is built on wireless connections and a lot of "theoretically." It's where people spend time, make friends, play games, get news -- and yet despite all of that philosophical worth, the smartest minds in the country still struggle with how to make even the most successful sites profitable. In 2007, Microsoft invested $240 million in Facebook, but the site still hasn't found profits to match its implied worth. Twitter has an estimated 6 million users, but is still grappling with a firm business plan.
