So there's this little girl gone missing in WA and it's awful and there are heartbreaking media appearances from the girl's mother and and the mother's new partner and VINYL NEEDLE SCRATCH SOUND and I feel like a terrible person for thinking it.

If it was a murder mystery show, I'd complain it was too predictable.

The number-one cause of mortality in children under 12 is being a stepchild. If you were an insurance company, you wouldn’t insure one.

Big up to all the stepdads out there being real fathers.

Like a lion taking over the pride after defeating the previous lion. Previous lion's cubs (not always, but) often get eaten.

More like psychos know how to pick their targets. No one gives a fuck about single mothers and their children. They're obviously just sluts, amirite?

Guess I didn't make my sarcasm obvious enough, sorry Lightspeed.

And statistically you're right about no one giving a shit about that demographic, which is a shitty, horrible situation.

I'm thinking another "Madeleine McCann" scenario at this point, never to be found again...hope it doesn't go down that path though.

Average score is around 6 correct answers, which is worse than a monkey randomly bashing answers.

10. Interesting. I believe only 1 answer was the middle option, and after the first question when I realised what it was trying to do, it was easy to estimate what the answer should be for the rest.

It's a great tip, can also do it with cut off 1.5L soft drink bottles.

Very angry

My granda's Dad was an orangeman (Protestant), but he married a Catholic, and he literally single handedly managed the Ormeau Road. Anyone fucked with him, and they learnt the hard way. The bars knew when he would be expected, and he would Jake the Muss his way through life. He was torn between his his birth and his choices. He made a decision, and he stuck with it. My young uncle held a gun to the IRA after doing bombings for them, and as a result got us petrol bombed (twice) and he fled the country.

If you think life is fair, or just, or majority rules, you can fuck off.

Make a principled stand, and stick to it.
People respect those with principles.

I am very happy to report that the girl has been found and is apparently unharmed and it sounds like an abduction by some other dude. She was found in a house not far from the family home.

I was so happy to read that today too! The abduction itself is surely traumatic for her as it is, but I really hope she didn’t have to endure anything else in the time she has been away from her parents. What a nightmare

How many digits in your account number? Mine is a low six figures, pretty sure that counted as "high" back in the day.

It's in the 34-35K range. /. was amazing in 98-99, people like Marc Andressen and Jon Carmack commenting. My reddit account is less than 1k.

Lowtax offed himself? Wow.

One of those weirdly influential people from the internet old days. I remember him leaving PlanetQuake to start SA. I never thought a forum you had to pay to post on would be successful, it was amazing to see how big it became.
