While I would be happy to get a custom title it's just not going to happen.tsujoi seems to be able to change his title though, so it seems it is "happening" to some of us.
Tsujoi is also a mod of the Specific Manga Series forum. As far as I remember Mods are able to change their titles as they please.

I don't look my age, and I'm happy about that!!!! I still get carded for booze but not for cigarettes anymore! I do wonder, who is the oldest here, I'm 27 how about you guys?As far as I know. You're it.
The more I think about this large gathering..I am saddened that physics don't work the way that I want them too.
If only the gathering would be like a group of drunken monkeys on acid. Mix in a little chaos and anarchy for flavor and BAM! A Fakku Frenzy
The idea was shot down because it would clutter up the boards with needless information. While I would be happy to get a custom title it's just not going to happen. I only know of one person who has a title that isn't related to fakku (Admin, Mod, uploader) and that is our Nee-chan who has been absent since her marriage.

I think in this case, the earlier stimulus represents a failed attempt by the government to control the recession. We'll have to wait to see what Obama and the dems do in terms of future stimulus packages. Public works projects, which achieve a similar effect by artificially creating jobs, are probably a better investment in this case, since the recession doesn't look like it will end quickly. Obama also seems interested in sending out a few stimulus checks though.Public work projects seem like a good idea. Our infrastructure is in serious need of assistance. There was a report that 60% of our bridges are in a critical state (I'm not sure on the actual number somebody needs to back me up or correct me). I'm sure people remember the I-35W bridge collapse. Not to mention the poor state of our roads in some areas. There could also be a new industry on recycling some of these houses that are becoming havens for less desirable. I believe there is an estimation of a surplus of 2 million houses in America. The banks are just sitting on these homes and when they do sell. They are sold at a loss for the bank so why not demolish them and resell the pieces?
I'm still not fond of the "stimulus" idea. No matter who puts the idea forward. Though if the stimulus was put forward with an equal amount of government cut backs then I would approve.

That Jesus guy seems to be quite vital in influencing our world to become what it is today, no?Jesus? The guy who works at that Taco Bell in town? Well..I guess he's changed the world...If it wasn't for him Taco bell couldn't have made those awesome tacos. (I had to do it mnx)
If I had to pick...I would say Thomas Jefferson. (I'm a fan boy sorry)
He was the third president.
The author of the Declaration if Independence.
Founder/co-founder of the Democratic–Republican Party
Founded the University of Virginia
Not to mention the Louisiana Purchase.
Hell. JFK even said once (when he invited a group of Nobel prize winners to the White house) "I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent and of human knowledge that has ever been gathered together at the White House – with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone."
Without the man America we know wouldn't exist in any shape of form nor would the ideals the country was founded one. By indirect methods without Jefferson (and the other founding fathers) the world wouldn't be the same in the ways that America has had a hand in it (WW1&2).

When you think on a larger scale you can realize that people have a larger influence than we think. If it wasn't for ww1. Lawrence of Arabia would have convinced the tribal groups in the ottoman empire to fight against the empire. Thus never leading to the creation of the Muslim Brotherhood. Nor would Israel have been created.

1) What's the point of a stimulus package(say, giving everyone $500)?
The basic idea is to smooth out consumption. If a lot of people lose their jobs, they can't afford to buy as much stuff. In a short recession, a stimulus can help put a little extra money in the hands of consumers allows them to maintain a higher level of consumption and thus keeps industries from being hit as hard. In a longer recession, the effect is the same, but less likely to succeed on a large scale. It may simply make the recession slightly less worse, or simply represent a failed attempt by the government to keep the recession under control at its outset. Further stimulus packages are also motivated by the desire to keep people from losing their houses.
In the short run you are correct but, how is a one time shot of $500 supposed to help the individual? What is that...the power bill and maybe cable? If your going to hand out money the logical step is to make it several payments. Though that would be less popular since that's just welfare. A measly one time shot of $500 isn't going to keep anybody in their homes. If it does keep anyone in their homes. It's only for another month hence the reason for several payments. So how about we cut the fat and just let them lose their homes rather than spend money the government already doesn't have for a placebo effect.

3) Why should we bail out the Big Three?
Normally, the government shouldn't and wouldn't. These companies have been pursuing an ineffective business model for at least 20 years. The only reason they will likely get help is that this recession already looks bad, and killing the Big Three would destroy a lot of jobs, making the recession even worse. Basically, many economists, including those at the FRB think that the cost of not bailing out the Big Three is too high at this moment. However, the government should try and squeeze everything possible out of both the Big Three and the UAW win terms of reform with this bailout.
I support unions but, the UAW priced themselves out of a job($60+/hr). The management ran the company into the ground. A bailout is only prolonging the inevitable collapse of these companies. As long as people aren't buying cars so bailing out these companies isn't going to do anything constructive. I highly doubt we'll come out of this in the near future which further backs the argument against the Big 3 bailout. If we weren't in a severe recession/depression they could bail them out on the condition that the companies retool and restructure in return for the money.
The only theory I can come up with of how the bailout would work. The UAW takes a drastic pay cut, replace the current management with people who aren't incompetent. Retool to produce fuel efficient cars. Besides the problems with the UAW and the management. The American consumer still isn't buying cars )let alone hybrids or fuel efficient ones since gas is $1.60/gal).

@Angelus. I'll take the challenge! Though I dislike the taste of gin and I'm sure you'll win as you have the advantage (height and weight).

Waste more of your time on the internets.
Also, I genuinely don't feel like the internet breeds rapists. could be wrong. But I've been to many a nerdy gathering in all sorts of environments and places, and I've never seen any real rape.
Statutory, perhaps, but not violent rape.
Anyway, height and weight aren't all there is to drinking, sir.
So sue me for failing to remember a 4chan meme. I'm just thinking about the concept of a bunch of guys and a couple of girls. Maybe it's all the group rape hentai I've seen over the years impairing my judgement. Also Angelus drinks as much (or as regularly as I do). For all intents and purposes I'm assuming our bodies can process alcohol at the same rate. I'm giving him the advantage because he's got a good +40lbs on me. The effects will be a bit slower. So unless he's doing 2-1 I think he's going to win.

No, no I agree that the governments should implement public works to get people back into some form of employment, much like FDR's new deal programs. I also think it's feasible for the government to deal with the energy crisis by creating more green-industry jobs. Unfortunately, I also think that this field is more R&D than manual labor, and it will take a lot of money to implement anything related to energy-reducing protocols and practices. For the most part, we would need something technologically and pragmatically possible to implement before suggesting a face lift for the green industry.Some economists believe the new deal actually made the effects of the great depression linger more than it would have if the government had stayed out and let the market. Though I agree with scribe that a massive industry output would be the best cure for the ails of the world economy (similar how WW2 pulled the U.S. out of the depression). Though I'm not exactly behind government expansion to cover infrastructure (i.e. expanding government to solve the economic crisis).
I agree with G-money though there is a lot of work to be done before giving the green energy sector a face lift (efficiency is one of them).
As a lot of problem are still plaguing the green sector. Distribution of resources (Natural Gas, Hydrogen). When it comes to electricity such as solar and wind the problem lies in distribution as well. Our energy grid is very inefficient while groups are trying to block reorganizing the grid. Another problem with solar power is the fact it only catch 10% of the spectrum. It takes years for a solar array to be come profitable. companies aren't exactly jumping at those kinds of investments.

@FPOD: Lol, that "I'll be flipping tables on my way out" line had me cracking. I, too, would be pretty damn disappointed if my girl wouldn't suck my cock and vice versa, but then again, if my girl don't like bondage, forget about sucking cock. Though most likely I'd be able to persuade her into bondage, then everything follows after that. I place a lot of confidence in my persuasion skills.
And by persuasion skills, you mean roofie coladas?
No, I meant my EQ level and debating skills.
"Do you like bondage?"
"No"
"Well you do now!"
Ha!, awesome

Solution: Buy a treadmill. I did, and I set it right in front of my HDTV. Being able to watch tv while exercising sure helped me lose weight.I've actually wanted a treadmill for years, so I could walk or run without leaving the house. Not a whole lot of safe places to walk or run around here. But they're pretty expensive, and I'm trying to save money so I don't have to buy pants. A treadmill's far on the horizon for me.

For instance, give the "Big Three" incentives attached to their bailout to start producing hydrogen and electric cars, bring the oil companies on board with Hydrogen filling stations and algie oil replacement technology.The best part being literally everyone would jump on-board and invest because it's already the world fastest growing industry, consumers are starting to love green products for to relive their guilt/help the enviroment and people have always loved gratuitous wealth.
Also what better way to start gaining energy independence then to start moving to green and unfortunately but necessarily nuclear power.
I agree with the overall idea I think there is a "minor detail" that needs to be looked at.
People don't have money to buy cars. It's not that we don't want cars, we just don't have the extra money to buy one. Look at the car dealerships (I know you're across the pond and the info might not be easily accessible). A majority of the countries 21,000 dealerships haven't had a profitable year since 06 (according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution). As of June 08 auto sales were down 18.8% (according to the USA today). People don't have the money or the desire to buy cars (let alone "green" ones). Which is part of the reason I think the U.S. automaker bailout is utter rubbish but, that's another subject for another time.

Some high school kids can be fucking crazy. They don't have any respect for people older than them. I know in my area, some teachers are scared of the kids since they'll do anything to fuck someone up for XX reason. And because they are so overly protected, everything goes in they're favor. It really pisses me off to see those kind of children, fuck only a few years ago when i was in high school i respected people older than me. Now sometimes i got a fucking 13-14 year old kids who are like '' Want to fight punk! '' at me. Most of the time, they are in gangs of like 10+ kids and your by yourself. Still not an easy fight.Teachers should have a degree of power over that shit.
& This might also explain why i love hentai where teachers rape / controle they're students, specially when those students are just has annoying.
That's happened to me before as well. I got jumped by a group of like 8 14-year-old kids. Which is weird, because I don't even look like I have any money. But kids these days can't even fight effectively in groups. I could have beaten them at 14.
But yeah, kids these days, ain't got no respect.
Of course, neither did/do I, but I'm not an idiot about it.
It's difficult to seriously hit someone when you have thin wrists. Is it just me or do kids nowadays look scrawny? Were we that malnourished looking back when we were all kids? I know I was around 90lbs at 13 but, I had an insane metabolism...stupid riddlin.
