My parents had dolls and other figures in the house when I was a kid. I just didn't want to play with them at all-- I wasn't pressured one way or the other. It just didn't strike my fancy in the slightest.

Isn't the moon the one place in the Earth sphere you haven't invaded? Remember, we called dibs. :tongue:

Starbucks will begin serving craft beer and wine on evenings

Good. So that way when I come in I'll have an excuse to be naked and start going on about how only hipster fucks drink from Starbucks

^ Hey, I resent that. I consume just their store stuff, and the only thing I've ever watched "ironically" is MLP for its density of Warhammer 40k alumn.

English school children among unhappiest in the world due to bullying

I thought it'd be South Korea because they literally have to spend long hours going to school and they come home at about 9:00pm and only have time for dinner. Then again, schools can suck for a plethora of reasons. US schools will always be number one at having the worst nutritional education and school lunches though.


Also...

Japan has so many 100-year-olds that the country cannot afford to give them presents anymore

This is from the Daily Express so take with a pinch of salt, but here goes anyway: "We can't prove sex with children does them any damage" says the National Council for Civil Liberties (closely linked with Labour).

Read the whole article, she then goes on to describe the NCCL as "Naive and Wrong" look squig i get that you want to constantly prove that this country is somehow falling into mad max levels of moral decay but at least fully read the thing.
Plus that news is more than a year old.

I know that, I read the article. Doesn't mean it's not disgusting that this kind of stuff goes on in the upper echelons of our government.

Of course it IS the Daily Express, so YMMV.

And the stuff it's talking about happened in the early 80s. Doesn't mean it shouldn't be addressed, but it hardly says anything about the country now.

I saw the Atlantis when I was at Kennedy a couple months ago. Is was a truly breathtaking sight. Holy BALLS is she big, too. Truly beautiful. It's a shame she'll never fly again. They also have a Saturn V hanging from the ceiling in one of the big halls. Fucking massive. Words cannot describe the size.

Yes. I love air/spacecraft.

It's a shame that NASA doesn't have the budget for new parts. But I suppose this works, too. Despite being old, those components were designed to survive hell, multiple times. I'm sure a couple more visits won't hurt.

It's not much different from the SLS system, which is being built out of essentially spare parts from the Shuttle program.

Just to say though, not getting where they think this is due to "cuts". NASA received a hike last year. $18 billion is slightly above their post-80's average.

It's probably just the result of unplanned contingencies. The ISS was originally slated to fall by next year. There would have been no need for a new tank in that event.

Would post the link to the video i got it from but...........its a TYT link and i don't trust them with anything regarding cheating as ana has admitted to cheating on her ex boyfreinds several times so of course she is going to defend this.

teen to be charged with rape and attempted murder of 5 year old girl

2 teens being charged in shooting death of deliveryman in crescentville

Never change, America. Also who the fuck would kill a delivery man? Sounds like my old neighborhood B3

And finally...

Baltimore ranked above New York for annual homicides

I *would* make a comment as well about the tension between North and South Korea, but thanks to the no politics rule I cannot. I just wanna say, it's past the time the North claimed they'd do something, I'm still alive and Kimmy boy hasn't done SHIT!
