Aye or Nay?

[Pompey Bum]

Aye to sushi.

And DM, since I don't think the "compliment PAM" thread is exactly your style, I want to say that you are an intelligent woman and a really good sport to but up with the louts on these game threads. Enough said.

Wasabi?

[Clopin]

Aye, it's good.

Desserts?

[Pompey Bum]

Aye.

Calling vegetables "veggies"?

[Clopin]

Uhm, nay, but at the restaurant I work at everyone always says 'veg'.

People from Quebec?

[Pompey Bum]

Good. Where the hell did that second g in "veggies" come from. Plus, "veggies"-- you're about to eat them, can't you give them some dignity?

And I knew and loved some Québécois nuns in Africa: all sweet, all lesbians (and hence kept far away), and very generous with their chickens. So for the Sisters, a big aye.

"Free" community college?

[Clopin]

No. Subsidize medical school and anything else the country actually needs. No subsidies for art history majors, no subsidies for women's studies majors, no subsidies for literature majors, no subsidies for history majors, no subsidies for indulging eighteen year olds who want to go to adult daycare. The standards are also INCREDIBLY low at community college, so low to be almost unbelievable.

Also why is a humanities education so expensive? A few decades ago you could get a summer job and pay your tuition and now it costs twenty grand a year somehow? Most probably subsidies and massive student loans artificially jack up the price since everyone can and will pay whatever the universities charge (would people be as willing to take a useless degree if they spent a decade working for the eighty or so thousand dollars needed for their program and living expenses?). Why aren't cheap online degree programs the norm for humanities? If I hear one more ****ing argument centred on students getting the "college experience" I may strike someone.

Classical liberalism?

Also Quebec girls are cute but Quebec guys are uh... well you may meet some, someday.

[Pompey Bum]

Well, I've always had good luck with Canadians. Sweet, beautiful women (best kept secret in North America) and earnest, masculine men. I've personally known very few exceptions

I agree about free community college, by the way. Mona was just quoting Thatcher on another thread: "The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other peoples' money." That sums up the whole project for me.

If by "Classical liberalism" you mean Mill, then aye.

Disney on Ice?

[Clopin]

Yeh Mill, Smith, those guys.

Nay to Disney on ice, even though I love Disney.

A life sentence without parole for Ross Ulbricht?

[Pompey Bum]

Nay, but it comes that way when you play the game with China. They never heard of Mill, right?

Whatever massive sentence Bradley Manning got?

[Dark Muse]

Aye to sushi.

And DM, since I don't think the "compliment PAM" thread is exactly your style, I want to say that you are an intelligent woman and a really good sport to but up with the louts on these game threads. Enough said.

Wasabi?

Thank you, it is all good fun,


I don't know enough about Ross Ulbricht to properly say so I will leave it for soneone else.

[Clopin]

Bradley/Chelsea Manning? No, of course not, that's disgusting.

Julian Assange?

[Dark Muse]

Aye

Anonymous (the group)

[Clopin]

Do they do anything... ever? Nay to anonymous and I've been posting on 4chan since late 2007 haha.

4chan?

[Pompey Bum]

Julian Assange: Okay, I mean the show's over there. Let him do a few years minimum security for stealing stuff, then farm him out to Umass.

Never been on 4chan, so I'll pass it on.
