Americans should not be allowed to say the word "europe"
they never use it right
No; we do use it right. We are pretty much the only ones who do.
For some reason all Europeans seem to think that their little country or region is exempt from being part of "Europe".
It's a continent. Everything west of the Urals until you land in the Atlantic proper. You don't get an exception for being kinda far north or an island with a tiny channel between you and the mainland.
Sheesh.
I hear those asians sure like their animus.
Edit: Asia as a continent, not race.
It's a farly meaningless term, you can't just go I hear those Europeans are/like 'X'.

Way to break out of the "condescending European" stereotype.
well they never fucking do!
you can't say "in europe they have x" like "in the us we have y"
Why can't you? Especially now with the EU, you're all just a bunch of member states.
the EU means polacks can work here freely and that there are limits to how one can fuck with the market. That's pretty much it.
Europe is not a homogenized entity at all. The EU doesn't change that. That seems to be another american misconception, that the EU resembles a United States of Europe. It really doesn't.
Besides, Norway isn't part of the EU proper.

I am routinely disappointed and angered by the American right wing's tactic of labeling anything other than their platform as "An Attack on Freedom"
I am also sad that the American Left has not taken this approach. Don't like free health care for all? Why do you hate FREEDOM of MEDICINE?
I say this because I am debating someone right now who has used the line "The Supreme court ruling is a strike for freedom of speech! If you disagree with the SCOTUS ruling then you support FASCISM and don't support free speech!"

Very infuriating
Just yell that corporations aren't people over and over again at him and note that members of said corporations, as individuals, could have contributed before, as individuals, just fine.

That corporations can buy politicians flat-out now, instead of having to be creative about it and occasionally getting caught.

to my understanding it is the opposite of the free market, I.E. the government directly controls the economy and other aspects from a small central location.

and I guess there is concern that the republicans are taking over the tea party
. . .
I would demand that depressed-looking liberals in Obama t-shirts personally bring me cocaine or oxy or whatever Republicans are into these days on a silver plate at the tea party for that money.

On a related note, I hate the word "Unamerican". As if what is appropriately American is clearly defined and unchanging, and daring to question it is tantamount to treason.

Try saying that Portugal has the same stuff as Estonia.
I'm not really suggesting that Europe has a unified culture or anything, but honestly the lengths that European countries will go to in order to try to except themselves from identity as "European" is just silly. The English - well, all of the British really - claim they are not European because they are an island and they kept their currency. Scandinavia considers themselves their own "thing" (but also like to exclude Finland kind of). The Spanish of course are too far west to be European and the same with the Portuguese. Eastern Europe, of course, is too young to really be part of "European" culture because of their isolation during the cold war and status as second-world countries.
Basically, all of Europe seems to see "Europe" as "Germany and maybe France".

Hey, buddy. I know you're upset, but keep in mind that 60% of Americans couldn't tell you what continent Norway is on, and 90% of us couldn't find it on the map. "One of those EU fellers" is as good as you can hope for unless you start threatening to nuke Israel.

It's considered to be the extreme right of the political spectrum, it is basically the government running everything and business. It's the opposite of marxist socialism.

I am totally getting an iPad, now that I have thought about it for a few days.
I can put all my game books away for good and rely on PDFs on a smallish mobile device that are legible and in color. YAY!
Also, remote desktop client, 1024x768. Sexy.
Yeah! You also can't listen to your music while you read your game books!
Or install the software you want to install!
Or browse the web freely because there's no flash!
Save your fucking money and get a netbook.
umm, you totally CAN listen to your music, just can;t stream pandora. Unless you are using an RDC like I plan to, in which case I can do everything and anything I want on a super light super thin slate, including multitasking while browsing and using flash on my webpages.
Ha. Ha. Ha.
Who fed you that bullshit? It's pretty well known at this point that the iPad doesn't support flash and you can only do one task at a time.
Word to the mother?
The iPhone is capable of playing mp3's while you're using other apps, it seems strange that a more powerful device wouldn't be able to.

That's the cheapest version too, I believe it goes up to around $850.

The $850 version can run two fart apps.

I have said this already.
$550/ticket

What, exactly, IS fascism?

Oh, that one.
I don't like that ruling, but I can't disagree with it. I mean I don't know of anything in the constitution that should make it illegal.
a spirited bout of fisticuffs it is, then!
On a related note, I hate the word "Unamerican". As if what is appropriately American is clearly defined and unchanging, and daring to question it is tantamount to treason.

I have read the wiki. Is my summary correct?
this guy I know is like
dude, you send a text to #### and they send you a daily update with all the weed specials at dispensaries in the city
and I am like, dude, this will be a work phone
and he could not figure out why I might not want to get pot-related texts on a work device
