Not the show with the ugly dude and the other dude. Well, some of that stuff too.

But mainly bullshit like this:

This is just stupid bullshit and it's making me angry because they had a dude out there trying to convince people not to get the actual free flu shot from the government clinic around the corner.

Just pay $150 for a spine adjustment to move your spine into a defensive position to shield your organs from the flu viruses. It's completely natural, unlike the genetically engineered zombie viruses the government is trying to infect you with.

What bullshit have you dudes been dealing with.

    I'm just dealing with my usual bad credit bullshit. It's not my credit that is bad, its the idiot's who are trying to buy a car with the shitty credit that is my issue.

    i call my sister a druid, and told her if she takes the right feats she can replace the entire party.

    Her husband eventually explained the joke, i think.

    I was hanging out with the ladyfriend's cousin the other night

    she doesn't believe in evolution

    she's queer and totally nonreligious

    but she just doesn't believe that the fossil record or radiocarbon dating can ever be verifiable because "no one ever observed it"

    Could you give a hedgehog acupuncture?

    Someone take a hedgehog to a pet acupuncturist immediately.

    Buddy of mine is the same way. He just doesn't believe that there's anyway way we can ever really be sure that those sorts of things are accurate.

    "When you starting talking about going back hundreds of thousands of years, there's no reason you wouldn't be off by a few decades, and you have no way to be sure you aren't. So then you go back hundreds of millions of years, how can you possibly know you're not off by hundreds of thousands of years?"

    I feel like people who have never had the psycho boyfriend/girlfriend are missing some vital experience which imparts some essential tidbit, some vital token of wisdom that, if not obtained during tender, sensitive years, will somehow blindside them a million times worse down the road.

    Like how it's best to get chicken pox as a kid, rather than when you are older.

    Hey, I've had one of those too! We should form a league of some kind.

    It's fucking hilarious because they have these acupuncture charts of dogs and cats hanging in the window. Which is just absurd if you think about it. But it's also potentially brilliant if you do it in the right area because you only have to convince the owners it works. The pets aren't going to say shit.

    The only thing to worry about with taking a bunch of homeopathic pills is that sometimes they put real ingredients in there too.

    Zicam, for instance, has zinc in it, which can cause you to lose your sense of smell.

    I mean

    the reliability of these things does decay over time

    but that's kinda built into the models and doesn't disprove evolution or anything

    Yeah exactly. But when I try to explain that, when they go that far back, they say outright they're only estimates, he comes back with, "Then they don't even know for certain! It could all be horseshit! This is why I hate science. At any given moment everything they think they know is true could be proven completely wrong and total horseshit."

    I....yeah

    That is why I love science.

    We will change our 'beliefs' in the face of compelling evidence.

    Unlike some people.
