then do something productive and show me those notes. as far as i can see, the principles discussed in that text are quite coherent. make a lot of sense too. |

I had begun to type out a response last night but have far more important things to deal with than refuting a poorly written, bastardized interpretation of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, namely school.
At the end of the day, anyone who reads the utter drivel you posted and can't see the utter lack of any academic credibility is a fool.
Beyond that, in the end, this is really just a debate for fools. |

of course not. other people's belief system(s) have never affected anyone's life ever, have they? i dont care if im weak by getting annoyed by stupid people (not, not directed at squirrel). so be it. everyone has their weaknesses. if you believe that wanting people mentally and emotionally unshackled by superstitious nonsense is "intolerant", then you are perfectly free to represent that view as you have done.
if you haven't realised it, intellectual progress has been motivated by ideas competing against each other, sometimes synthesising into new ideas. merely doing my part in the COR for anyone that might be tempted to embrace bull into their lives.
so, in the mean time, why dont you go post in a thread about "buttsecks" or "LOLs" and avoid coming to a battle of wits unarmed.
i have accused fate & destiny as being nonsense. im merely asking their advocates to explain to me how they're not.
see, this is where the stupidity comes to bear. im not asking for a blow by blow description of your crazy, ty life that has forced you into kowtowing to notions of cosmic control. i couldnt give a about life circumstances that you havent been able to deal with properly, and developed some quasi religion based upon it. id like anyone to explain to me how they believe fate works. you, someone else. i dont care.
if anyone wants me, im taking my magical flying carpet to visit the king of the potato people to beg for freedom. |
P.S. You're a retard. |

i've said it before and i'll say it again, if you believe in fate, or more specifically, pre-determination, than how can you believe that you are responsible for your actions? |
I think people use "pre-determination" as a way to allow themselves to not feel guilty about what they do, or to feel bad about what happens in their life in general.
like....."fck it, it was going to happen anyway" |

You need to move it from after such to in between typical and stupid.

Your answer is partially correct. The location of the comma depends on intent. If Jamie meant to say the subject is true to form of what one would expect a woman of deminished intellegence to be then "typical stupid chick" is fine, however, if the intent was that "typical" was to be used as an adjective meaning ordinary independent of the adjective "stupid" then you are correct. Knowing Jamie as I do I believe her intent was likely to stress that Squirrelly is exactly what she would expect a stupid chick to be thus I believe the first comma should have simply been omitted.
Maybe we can share the cookie. Why type is it? |
