Alcohol is. We have video evidence of apes getting shitfaced on rotting fruit and acting silly. Well, sillier.

Nope, not what I'm saying at all. But we end up at the same place, so I'm OK with it.

I learned in the service to be asleep vertical instead of horizontal. That's one of those "life lessons" that has come in handy more times than I can count.

Yeah, that's what I said.

Oh, I'm not saying that it being illegal is insignificant. Just that I think the ethos is more of a factor than the law. It's a hair-fine distinction, because the law (the basic stuff, not the highly technical, abstruse parts) is part of the cultural ethos.

Because you only choose to see them when there are Liberal governments. Hope that helped.

I can. Elect Tories. (Sorry, couldn't help it. I'll go back to being reasonable.)

About the time you work out the implications of a pointy stick, "fast" starts to beat "strong." Just ask Goliath.

I'm sure a lot of it is just normal variation in devotion. There's daily Mass attendees and "Christmas and Easter" Catholics. I've known Muslims who go to mosque two or three times a year (and some who don't go at all, but still call themselves Muslims). Certainly calling yourself this or...

"Natural" is another stupid concept, that usually amounts to "what I'm used to/approve of." "'T'ain't natural!" runs "sinful" a close race for justifying brutality toward some person or group. Used to be "unnatural" for Black people and White people to marry. How "natural" is it to wake up...

Can't say as I really know. If the annoying characteristics of "wokeness" had played a part in preventing the Holocaust, I'd say it was worth it. Could it have? Fuck if I know. But in my travels around Europe, one thing has become clear to me. The Holocaust didn't happen out of a clear...

So. . . your point is that any taught behavior is unnatural? Teaching is, by definition, "outside interference."

Sometimes, more in Canada than in the U.S. I think, they just don't know when to quit. I went to Stratford last year, and they had a Hamlet with a Black, female actor playing Hamlet. OK, couple of things. First, it's been done, which detracts substantially from the "bold, revolutionary."...

Yeah, that shortness of breath's pretty bad.

Riot. . . Riot. . . Not a riot. . .

OK, YOU tell Chuy that. He's got a temper.

Simplistic. It implies that a riot is planned, and that the participants all have the same goal and tactics. Which is kinda the opposite of a riot.

Go for it.

And vice versa. You can probably tell the mental health of a group by how often they declare

Or don't go.
