Re: Death Panels for All! The health care thread

The health care is unsustainable debate sounds really stingy when you tally your military expenses in this last decade. If you guys have money to start wars on other countries for no real reason, sure you can hack up some more to take better care of your people. Because military funding and healthc...

Re: Death Panels for All! The health care thread

Saying you wanted to leave the debate at that would have been fine: I wouldn't have commented at all if you;d just done that.. Personally I thought some of the posters arguing against you were getting too personal, and risking simply attacking you, or a strawman argument, rather than your actual poi...

So your response to people disagreeing with you is to throw what looks from here to be a temper tantrum, delete all your posts, and storm off in a huff? Robby did come off a bit abrasive, but not enough to really justify that sort of reaction, surely.

Re: Death Panels for All! The health care thread

As a British citizen, I feel it is my duty to tell you all that, despite the lies flying around about the NHS, the government has only attempted to euthanise me twice. And one of those times, I sorta deserved it. Seriously though, a lot of the controversy over there seems baffling to me. There's not...

Both. Simultaneously in different dimensions, so they cancel each other out. Simple.

Re: Get Ya Freak On.

I've heard Years of Refusal in passing many times, but I've never sat down to listen to it. It just seems fairly unremarkable to me, though that might just be the jaded once-teenage-Morrissey-fan in me talking. All I can say about it from what I've heard is that it sounds very... Morrissey. There's ...

Re: Get Ya Freak On.

Well, of course, you don't proclaim a song to be better or worse simply based on what country it's from or what language it's in. I'm not asking purely so I can be a snob and say 'Look, I listen to non-English music, I'm more sophisticated than you'. That'd just be stupid. (Though it is tempting whe...

Re: Get Ya Freak On.

Been listening to a lot of raï music recently. I've found Khaled's music quite catchy, though a lot of it is from the 90s and thus the cheesiness factor's off the scale on some of them. But Aicha's the nicest song that I've ever sort-of remembered hearing before in English, and just on its own it ma...

If the Republicans and Democrats want in on the election, they can PM Ahaugen like everyone else.

Re: The Ubiquitous YouTube.com Thread

Hmm, someone just put all the original French Asterix cartoon movies up on Youtube. Asterix in Britain with French voice actors speaking French with English accents?

DONE.

Eh, I always got the impression that AnarchySpace'd prefer ammunition and firebombs to paper votes. Must be part of some fiendish papier-mache plot.

Re: We woz robbed! (Oscars)

Personally I think it's criminal that some of the films in the Best Film in a Foreign Language catagory didn't get a look in at Best Picture. Any award ceremony that has Benjamin Button nominated for Best Picture but not Waltz With Bashir has no credibility whatsoever.

Re: Livejournal-style Whining Thread 2.0

I'm always amazed how many fascists you can find on Youtube. And how pathetic they are. I found one trolling a video of a kitten, saying how best to kill one. Fearsome.

Re: 11th Doctor cast

I wanted Paterson Joseph, dammit.

Oh well. As long as this guy's a change a change from the Tennant persona, it'll be OK. I liked Tennant more than most here, but it wouldn't be right to switch actors and keep the same personality.
