I think your rule crosses over into adopting everyone else's preferences into your ethics.
Well, you didn't reprint the part where I say this works in some scenarios and not in others.
I think your rule crosses over into adopting everyone else's preferences into your ethics.
Assuming that it was 100% applied (which I have stated is not the case), it would cross over into me accepting other people's preferences when I'm in their domains, with no onus on me to be in everyone's domain and certainly not simultaneously.
The fact that the rule only works in some scenarios and not others is why I think it's not a good rule. And why following that rule is therefore not a matter of ethics.
I never called it a rule. It's also a bad poem. So what?
My personal ethics are in adopting the rules of the store/community/country when I cross over into it.
Why wouldn't this be a rule, though? If it's a principle that only works sometimes, I feel like it's not a good principle.
This is making my head hurt. You should tell me to stop if it makes yours hurt, too. I feel bad for arguing with you on the day of your MRI.
Edited to fix quote.
Ew for the roach. Too tired to read the ethics discussion.
Just skipping to say, did anyone else post about getting all 7 seasons of Buffy on an iPod?
I don't want them preloaded though. I want to buy them and load them myself. Though Mr. Jane thinks he has a way to do this, so perhaps I don't care, but Buffy! while I'm working late!
I don't think counting cards is a big deal, and I can't wrap my head around not illegal, not assholeish, but still wrong.
I also hate dress codes. I am the anti-ita (though most certainly not anti-ita).
Also, I'm thinking of sending a care package to my sister. I want to FTD her a small tree and send some presents in the mail or with our other sister so she won't be so lonely. This is the first Christmas since our little brother died that she won't be there with us. I may have mentioned, because I'm so fucking proud, that she's the first woman to play the Elf in the Santaland Diaries- so good for her, but bad timing. Are there any suggestions for cheapish, small presents for a tomboyish, snarky, tall, lanky, comedic actress?
hmm... tough one. an iPod? I kind of want to get an iPod for everyone this year.
BTW, Grey's Anatomy folks: am I the only one that thinks a perfect pairing (granted of dysfunction & misery) would be Alex/Meredith? It would cause such angst...
I love boxing nun! I also love iPod, but not of the cheap.
I'm not that nice. She'll be missed, and I don't know if I could deal if I couldn't make it home. It's going to be strange because usually we're all there by the 22nd or so, which was our little brother's birthday. We have a party for him, and then we do Christmas Eve. I won't be there for the 22nd, and I'm sick about it. I can't imagine how she feels not being able to be there for either, but still doing this really awesome thing for her.
I am in love with bon bon right now for her use of Kantian ethics to justify card counting.
I am also wicked tired and I think I'll be going to bed right after I get the matress cover out of the dryer.
