Anyone else feel like the Tea Party is getting a little racist? These “Tea Party Comix” have been circulating for a couple of days now - no one's taken responsibility, and some Tea Party hotshots have disavowed them as a plant.

Aerik -1 points0 points 5 hours ago[-]

I know.

All the racist signs and slogans we see at tea party rallies are exactly the same we saw at Palin and McCain rallies during the 08 election. It's just the same group of bitter republicans who can't stand a black president.

After years of losing billions of dollars, bailed-out GM and Chrysler are posting profits again and repaying government loans ahead of schedule

except certain CEO's claimed to have managed it in 3 months

Pretty much sums up my shitty day. [SC2]

I think you can sue for that. Consumer fraud is serious business. Write in to economist.com

I want to get to know my Kansas City folks!

It's not on the new page, either. In fact, I just plain don't see it outside of your profile page or that of the other who commented. Woops.

OK then fine, let's start on the August meet up?

"For weeks, I've seen illegal immigrants tell CNN reporters that they feel victimized by the Arizona law, as if somehow a promise has been broken. They resent being hunted. That's too bad. They're supposed to be hunted. They're here illegally."

You're an idiot. "anchor babies," as you so racistly put it, pay for their own health care.

Immigrants come into the country to raise their own family are not taking money out of the economy. Since they are living here, their money stays here. The value they generate stays here. And since we do such a damn good job of abusing them, they in fact put more into the economy that most of us do. They are made to do more work for less pay.

They are the ones paying for our healthcare and our welfare and the damages when we commit crimes. Not the other way around.

I just had an overweight person yell at me from their car. Does this really make people feel better?

they're trolling you, moron

Second Beta Release of Firefox 4 Arrives

Aerik 0 points1 point 1 day ago[-]

No, it will install itself in separate folder from your 3.* release, but use the same profiles. Nothing will be overwritten.

It hasn't disappeared...

Second Beta Release of Firefox 4 Arrives

Aerik 1 point2 points 1 day ago[-]

for fuck's sake.

Safari has tabs. Firefox has tabs. Nobody accuses Chrome of copying tabs or extensions from anybody. But everything firefox does is somehow ripping off chrome just because mozilla doesn't have a multi billion dollar corporation shitting out new features faster than others.

Shit like this is already on all browser vendors' minds. Anything and everything you can think of, I guarantee you that they came up with the idea by polling internet users, or when programmers of all kinds got together. Which means, they are picking and choosing popular ideas from users. It's not exactly innovation.

Tab closing as easy as click, click, click (Firefox 4 gains a great UI feature from Chrome)

Aerik 0 points1 point 1 day ago[-]

So how come when chrome has tabbed browsing, nobody says they're just copying firefox, webkit and safari. But everything firefox does is somehow copying chrome? go fuck yerself

Trollface on women

Aerik 1 point2 points 1 day ago[-]

Found the /r/mensrights attitude perfectly. They think every little thing is equivalent to the shit women are made to fear every single day, while simultaneously claiming women are just lying about it. Including male circumcision, which isn't nearly the same as female circumcision beyond the fact that it was an non-consensual surgery.

Pissing with boxer shorts on FFFFUUUUUUU [NSFW]

More like "you pee like a total idiot ffuu"

Here's an idea: don't pee directly into the water, moron. The entire point of a standing urinal is, in fact, so you can aim your urine stream such that it's nearly parallel with the surface it's hitting. That way, no splash. You can do the same thing in your bowl toilet if you bother to try. But apparently giving a shit about not smelling like piss is too much for you, even when you give a shit about having it on you. Asshole.

"For weeks, I've seen illegal immigrants tell CNN reporters that they feel victimized by the Arizona law, as if somehow a promise has been broken. They resent being hunted. That's too bad. They're supposed to be hunted. They're here illegally."

Aerik 2 points3 points 1 day ago[-]

I'm so sick and tired of these monstrous rightwing nuts, alleged 'moderates' and even some leftists comparing illegal immigrants to robbers or something.

Know who they're really comparable to? jaywalkers. Because that's all they're doing. Walking where they're not supposed to because an authority said so.

What's sick is that the more brown you are, the more likely you're actually going to be locked up for it. Even if it's actually jaywalking.

Mystery of healthy fat people: Why some obese people go on to become diabetic while others do not

Aerik 0 points1 point 1 day ago[-]

How is that a mystery? obviously fat is not the cause of diabetes.

Drew Carey...wtf!

Aerik -1 points0 points 1 day ago[-]

heh I know. I wonder why he had them off for the pic. I wonder how the body makes the eyes sink into the skull in reaction to glasses? I remember when I used to wear glasses, when I took them off I looked beat up.

Drew Carey...wtf!

Aerik 5 points6 points 2 days ago[-]

HA!

Anyhoo, isn't it interesting how sometimes you can look at a person and think, "yup. Gonna wear big ol' glasses their whole life."

Drew Carey...wtf!

Sad but true. Large weightloss comes with saggy skin. Sometimes your weight actually keeps you looking young.

I'm getting wisdom teeth taken out in a 10 days, Arnica was recommended to me to keep bruising down. Will this help or is it homeopathic mumbo jumbo?

Aerik -2 points-1 points 2 days ago[-]

By everything I can find, seems like homeopathic mumbo jumbo.

As for what to do, I wouldn't know. I had an excellent orthodontist. I've had 3 of my 4 wisdom teeth come in so far, and it was just uncomfortable for a week, then as if nothing happened.

Any other Firefox users getting this while browsing Reddit? It is annoying and I'd like to fix it.

Aerik 0 points1 point 3 days ago[-]

This is a couple months old problem that's been impossible to replicate in any meaningful way. Once a week or two, somebody makes a post like this, three or four people have been seeing it too, and nobody can figure out why.

Why does Google Chrome do this?!?!

Aerik -1 points0 points 3 days ago[-]

Because every tab is it's own process, using unshared resources. It's supposed to do that. It's actually one of it's selling points.

Sucks how it means any other app on your computer is starving, doesn't it?

is anybody else unable to sign into google reader with 4.0b1?

Aerik [S] 0 points1 point 3 days ago[-]

I'm using beta 2 now, I'm able to use google reader now. Hm. I'll shrug it off, I guess.
