Okay seriously folks -- nobody thinks that a company called Cyberdyne building a robot named HAL is asking for trouble? NOBODY?
All we have to do is pass legislation prohibiting the HALs from using Skynet....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

By then it will be too late!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
On Online Identity. I'd never heard the term pseudonymity before. I like it.
I think this is an interesting thought exercise, but "Jesus Walked on Ice, Study Says" is just asking for trouble.
I understand the motive for that sort of extreme piercing, the way I do for an ear piercing, eyebrow piercing or tongue piercing?
What is the motive for an eyebrow piercing? Only one of my piercings had a motive other than "Hey! I want that!" I don't want back piercings, but I don't feel it needs (although it may have) any complex motivation.

Not if we invent time machines first. And maintain an up-to-date database of all Sarah Connors.

A digital sign of our times -- at 1:02:03 am tomorrow morning, April 5, 2006, it will be 01-02-03-04-05-06.
This is for us Yanks. Other parts of the world, this number sequence will take place on May 4, 2006 (or 4 May 2006).

Oh, Corwood, am perfectly prepared to admit "You're as big a pain in the ass as the rest of us," bunk. It's the least I could do.
Aw.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I just had to Google (for spellchecking) another body part that he had pierced and got a mild shock (though at least I spelled it right) -- I thought it was the little cupid's-bow at the upper lip, but it turned out to be at the other end of the body. For future reference, frenulum!=philtrum.
Honest yo dog, this exact same thing happened to Bob Bob. But with image search.
Also, a friend from H.S. had some neck/upper back piercings-- they just crossed over the skin like in the picture linked to. However, he also had his tongue split. Which I'm sure I've mentioned.

Based on the principles he lays out, we seem to be doing very well. Good for us!

Always Anti-fascist!
You know it, bunky. I'd offer to bend you over a patrol car, but with the kid and everything? Nobody'd believe I'd threatened your virtue. Wirehead affection is not like other people's, is it?
