    Living a Ration Book Life

    Sounds more like hippie tree-hugging values than anything else.

    Ad: the "soul" of the Leica M-Monochrome

    Seems rather odd and creepy. A german woman providing the narration and a lot of war imagery? What were they thinking? Also, it was produced for a release in Brazil? Since it was narrated in German, was it targeted at the German expat community in Brazil? Very creepy.

    The general decline in standards today

    If you haven't seen any clinical evidence perhaps you could look a bit harder. As for the criminalization of drugs, it is precisely because they are criminalized that addicts have trouble getting help. They need help not jail and a criminal record. The criminalization of drugs only serves to...

    German tourist ad from 1939

    Well, Hitler was a washed out artist. He had very limited skills so no surprise he turned to an experienced person.

    Why!!!! Hipsters!!! Why!!!!!

    It looks like this thread will just be another chance to show how hateful one group of people can be towards another. Has anyone else grown tired of these hateful threads?

    The WWII Generation (1901-1927)

    Are you forgetting about the atrocities visited upon the world at that time? The people committing those atrocities certainly weren't any type of "best" that I would recognize.

    The Value Resume and Truth -Can they be reconciled?

    I'm not clear what a value resume is. Is it one where you intentionally lie? You seem to think that the true facts of your career are inconsistent with being proud in "speech or correspondence". If you are writing a resume, keep it truthful. The tone of the words won't make them falsehoods...

    Your Opinions please

    I think in the old days there were plenty of sweat shops right in America. How many photos have we all seen of masses of women stooped over sewing machines, doing jobs that today must be sent to the third world because nobody here wants to do them? How could they have gotten an individualized...

    Land Line Phone

    If the phone company charged $30 per month, after one year your total cost would be $360. That works out to $51.42 per hour that your cell service was unavailable. Keep that land line running for two years, and it is over $100 per hour. And so on... Even land line phones can go down, but it...

    The Dumbing Down of America - Here's Why

    It is ironic that in a thread about the lexical paucity of Americans, in which a poster assumes superiority to the "unwashed masses," that same poster does not know the difference between "your" and "you're". If one is going to show opprobrium towards people who do not know the meaning of a...

    The Age of Entitlement

    So, you don't like Walmart, but you go. You've seen the site enough to know you don't like it, which means you've read it, but you say you don't read it. Please explain these obvious contradictions.

    Graffiti on a church.

    In countries where hands are cut off and tongues are cut out, the punishment for adultery is stoning. Only women are stoned to death. It does not happen to the men. When a man grows tired of his wife, he simply accuses her of adultery and she will most certainly be killed. You are taking this...

    Graffiti on a church.

    But don't most people think they are honest and doing the right thing, even if they are deceiving themselves? Or even if they are incorrect in their belief that their action is the right one?

    Graffiti on a church.

    Isn't the term "hate crime" used to describe a crime against an identifiable group? As such a typical murder of an individual would not be considered a hate crime unless it somehow could be related to that individual's inclusion in an identifiable group, such as blacks, asians, gays, etc.

    Graffiti on a church.

    In a physical sense it is just paint. But the interpretation of the paint is another thing altogether.
