Random Thoughts II

[crocos]

Aah, that lovely word "normal" and what do we find? Such bullshit and selfishness hidden behind.

[mpx]

Normal is entirely not the right word for it but I've also not sure what crocos is trying to convey either.

Ab; would you agree that a person could be in a state where even though their thoughts may seem rational and logical to them, there's a chemical imbalance going on due to certain environmental or chemical factors (for example the loss of one's family) that's affecting them in such a way that their behaviour is ultimately compromised?

Although, I refer back to the letter of the elderly man where he was indeed in a situation where his own quality of life was rapidly dropping and made a choice to forfeit before getting any further along, in which case what you say, "If my desire is to take the positive action of ending my own life and I act on this desire through my own free will without coercion or direction from a third party, then what's the big deal? Being kept alive against my will so someone else can obtain the benefit of my existence is fuckin' battery farming." is entirely appropriate.

Frankly it's surprising I'm typing coherently: http://www.nzgames.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1971325

Yeah, I think there are plenty of cases where those grieving lost ones grieve what they miss out on for themselves and also grieve the lost hope they had for their loved one, for what they believed their loved one would get out of life if they lived.

Is it selfish to want to enjoy someone else's enjoyment?

How long are you down?

It seems I only fly in for day trips when the wind is particularly bad. Today wasn't as bad as two weeks ago when I was seriously considering getting a brown suit.

Does anyone know if there's a way to check how many phone lines are connected to your house? Whether they're active or inactive?

Ah, Papatoetoe, how I don't miss you:
Parents claim teens solicited by prostitutes

Prostitutes are soliciting young teenagers on their way to school in Papatoetoe, three concerned mothers say.

I'm calling bullshit on this one.
Think about it, what teen has that kind of disposable cash? From a purely business centric viewpoint, soliciting teens is not a good money making idea.

[DrTiTus]

those damn both male and female prostitutes at it again

How much does a street hooker set you back anyway? For, ah, interest.

[Golden Teapot]

From $1 in Mexico.

I suppose the price is inversely proportional to the duration elapsed since the streetwalker last had a meth hit.

Could you maybe get a new song to sing? This one is boring now.

[chubby]

gt's exploitative,misogynistic tone whenever he refers to third world prostitution,or the 'extra services' his mates with domestic staff in the middle east get makes me throw up a little bit.i like to point out that i think hes a cock.
whine a little harder-itll make it more fun for me to discount.

[Lightspeed]

What Savage is saying he doesn't mind being reminded of sexual exploitation, he just doesn't like being reminded it's horrifying. So GT's shit is okay, but you pipe down.

GT is a misogynist? news to me... he pretty much only hires hot bitches.

I hire the best candidates I can find.

For graduate roles across the eight dimensions of behavioral competency that I am interested in women invariably present far better than men. In reality most candidates female or male present badly - but of the good candidates most and often all of them are women.

There are people who refer to my team as Teapot's girls and indeed some of them sometimes do this themselves. I don't though - I accord all of my team the full professional respect that they deserve.

Conversations in my team are quite different to those found in more heavily male teams. For example, I have a person in my team who talks of plans to celebrates turning 30 or qualifying as an actuary (whichever happens first) with an augmentation procedure that I expect would be quite noticeable. I avoid participation in these conversations to avoid any risk of causing offense.

[Spoon1]

I would say an intelligent man who wanted female staff could devise a test that skewed that way. That man would never admit that on a public forum of course.

Props GT.

Old age is... telling a story with the same enthusiasm as last time, unaware your audience is wondering if you'll be OK going to the shops by yourself.

Stay safe Teapot. Write it down.

One of GT's pals right here:



Nothing wrong with helping people find a place in this fine country in exchange for a bit of the ole in-and-out, eh, eh?

Naturally, he completed his set...

Ok, so clearly, unlike you, I didn't grow up paying prostitutes for sex, and have no first hand knowledge of what kind of costs are actually involved, but I've been led to believe (by my dodgy Russian work mate that regularly partakes in proffered services, and then comes back to work and tells everyone about it) that the costs are likely to be in the range of a hundred to two hundred, for the upsized combo with bread roll.

I didn't have that kind of money to regularly hand over to prostitutes when I was 15.

(also: the answer is Wellington. Maybe our prossies are just classier, and thus cost more, than where you're from?)

[Lightspeed]

You're almost cute fidgit.

The prostitutes in question probably went to the same schools as the kids they were offering their services to. Or at least had dropped out not so long ago.

Some article my fiance was reading about some juggalo festival showed said $50 blow jobs, $75 onefucks, $55 eighth of mushrooms and $3 more you can get a juggalo to cut off his right nipple. I assume these are not high end prostitutes and since they're working outside of the law probably work for smaller money. There were regularly kids at my school with expensive cellphones, decent cars, nice clothes (and this was a public school in the hutt valley 04) There were kids with smoking and weed habits which could cover the cost easily too probably.

GT's flawless consistency has firmly awarded him the title of 'NZG poster of the decade' IMO.
