Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
A funny [chat] happened on the way to the forum

I was being facetious.
Non-stick pans are for chumps anyway
I love that part. I really do.
Wait, when did you get a chance to demonstrate this? Is taking your daughter's boyfriend shooting a thing down there?

I want to report this for awesome, but then people will be mean at you.
It is if the dad is considering the wisdom of a "hunting accident."

it's not like they were feeding them tons of hormones and antibiotics in the 1860s

then find some hippies willing to break the law and listen to them bitch when they get busted every month
i mean
it's not the dairy farms that are pushing the pasteurization laws. they'd just as soon have lax health standards. it's public health departments.
people get sick off of raw milk pretty often. there's a reason for the laws. now, i'd be fine with exceptions that let adults sign disclaimers or whatever, but the right way to do it is to change the laws.
i know that raw milk is available at farms in Mass. I'm not sure if they're doing some sort of "give the milk away free and oh look here is a donation basket" or if there's an explicit legal exemption for farm sales of immediately sourced product.
pasteurization is invented long before the factory farm
too obvious.
yeah, the father in law is a hunter, and thom is a rogue
Listen guys, I know it's really fun to frame the story like that, but I'd appreciate it if you'd stop unless you can point to an incident where the people in the story I linked have been charged with a crime instead of just having their stuff stolen "as evidence".
Now, I could be wrong. Maybe they were charged with a crime and the article, which obviously has a bias of its own, left that out on purpose. But I sure as hell can't find any info on that.
So will you please stop saying they were "busted", instead of being the victims of state-sponsored-theft?
If she wants to bake, tell her to apply to every bakery she can find. Tell her to be tenacious about it. One of the guys we hired recently we hired because he showed up at the back door. Another guy was friends with one of our bakers, said "huh, I can learn to do that" and now he makes all our croissants.
Also, fitting in with the group matters almost as much as ability.
I will master you yet you cheeky bastard.
Also if the living conditions of dairy cows can exacerbate the prevalence of such diseases, it doesn't mean that that's the only situation under which they can possibly have them.
I should have done this.
OH LOOK AN ALLIGATOR!
*wrestles*
clearly. but you guys are seriously overstating the risk of disease if someone buys raw milk from a hygienic local farmer.
which is cool. you guys are a pretty risk averse crew.
The Citadel sucks.
i haven't seen it.
i guess it strikes me as hard to really frame a legitimate threat as well as have real human concerns in a mythic-level sort of scenario. it's why superman stories are kinda boring and why Marvel's formula of a soap opera with super powers kind of falls apart once the characters get beyond a certain power level.
watchmen had a pretty insightful take on it i thought.
Part of it is. I'm lower middle class. Leigh's family is upper class and there is a conflict there.
You didn't get to hear this story? So a while back, Leigh's dad came to Houston for business. And he wanted to meet me. So this was arranged. And he's pretty old school, and I think he was assuming I was Leigh's age rather then my real age. This lead to him trying to do the whole "intimidate the hell out of the boyfriend" thing. He did this by arranging to meet me at a local gun range where he rented a Desert Eagle chambered for .50AE. Now this gun has a reputation, and it's reputation is that it's owners are morons and Counterstrike players. So we did some shooting. Now I'm a target shooter. It's how I relax, is making sure I put every shot where I want it to be. He wanted to scare me with the big loud gun. Which didn't work so well when most of his shots weren't hitting the target and I had a nice grouping.
Nothing is better than me.
nice jacket gaywad
