TIME OUT!

I agree.

Line-by-line replies are painful.  We all know it.  We all hate doing it.  It sucks to read and ensures new people are unlikely to contribute.  So let's stop it!

Definitely.

Of course, I mean look at Janos up there, he's really giving Goob some bathroom reading.

There's actually something very fundamental about multiquoting that degrades intellectual internet discourse. Each paragraph of the OP multiplies exponentially as its sentences are picked apart, spawning new debates. Not only are these responses individually shorter, but once resolved neither side can cease quoting for fear of appearing defeated. Thus one sees rapid entropy of discourse and descent into ad homimem. Mozilla is telling me it's spelt "homemade".

 
When I rule the world, monetary notes will be printed on various types of cheese.  When the note becomes so hairy as to be unreadable, it ceases to be legal tender.  This will keep inflation under control by ensuring that money leaves the economy at a reasonably predictable rate, while simultaneously ensuring that money continuously flows within the economy, as hoarding wealth (producing economic stagnation) will result in that wealth rotting away.

I will be old enough to assume the office of United States President in 2020.  Just keep that in mind, when you consider possible write-in candidates in the future.  After all, if you have to vote for a lunatic, you may as well vote for the biggest lunatic of them all.

I really have to admit that I wrote that answer in the morning, after waking up, without enough legal drugs in my system. It's my cardinal sin. Long line-by-line posts about political subjects while being angry and tired. It doesn't really make the discussion easier or more fun to read. It also focuses on small details instead of larger, more comprehensive lines.
lol wtf

This man wants to use zombies as an energy source.

**** yeah.
In my world of sleepers, everything will be erased.
I'll be your religion, your only endless ideal.
Slowly we crawl in the dark.
Swallowed by the seductive night.
