Re: So, i haven't been on this site for over 2 years, what did i miss?

All I know about the new features is that they can be turned off or ignored without too much hardship. Although every now and then I press something unwise and a hideous monstrosity of a map projectile vomits its way over my phone screen... I'd actually forgotten the Zultar thing had happened. The d...

Re: If the military is overspending and filled with white supremecists should you support the troops?

because there is no way to really tell how effective one troop in combat will be until it comes to actual combat No way of providing a complete evaluation, perhaps, but a great many useful indicators. Take the example of Greece with it's contingent of national service conscripts who serve for a yea...

Re: Should there be stricter regulations on thoughts and prayers?

Re: If the military is overspending and filled with white 00 should you support the troops?

The EU and UK spend a little over 300 billion, and get considerably less bang per buck than the US does. China spends a little under 300 billion, and gets considerably more bang per buck than the US. The US is bigger, but we aren't talking different orders of magnitude in spending compared to simila...

Re: Should there be stricter regulations on thoughts and prayers?

What we need is an evidence based approach, so let's start with a small trial. The next time you have a thought, rather than posting it immediately on webDip wait 24 hours and reevaluate the thought, then wait a further 364 days and reevaluate again. If the thought still feels interesting, post away...

Re: Rhubarb Pie

In Italy rhubarb is mainly used to make a relatively light liqueur, the most well-known brand being Rabarbaro Zucca. But ages ago my grandma always had rhubarb candies for me, bittersweet and so good. Or the even more bitter boldo/artichoke ones. I still remember that taste, although I still don't ...

Re: Is it a moral imperative to hit someone with my car

So... if I understand the scenario correctly... brainbomb ran someone over in a display of hideous driving ineptitude, and is currently trying to find an elaborate excuse that gets him off the hook?

Is it someone you have met in real life, or who has an account on this website?

If he said yes I was going to ask if it was someone who owned a famous well.
