Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

My uncle just became my friend on Facebook. I'm not sure how I feel about this.
I have too many categories of people in Facebook, I'd like it if FB had group level access control.
Sorry to hear about your job Shir.
Dude, Jesus was WAY cool.
I love it that he was exactly the kind of person his most vociferous followers would condemn as a bleeding-heart Dirty Hippie these days.
Whenever my mom gets snotty about people wearing less than Sunday best to church, I fire back with "So Jesus had a dress code for the lepers, beggars, and whores he ministered to, did he?"
Hilarious & Crazy Signage, Part 12
My fave is the sign that says "Dog Crossing" with another sign below it that says:
Old Dog
Young Dog
Several Stupid Dogs
Please Drive Slowly
Also the "Please No Defecating on Subway" sign. (The CTA could use such a sign, based on one experience I had.)
I am in love with "No vague malaise/No epic complaints."
heavily bible-based, with a very strong emphasis on studying the nuances of the original languages the books were written in, as well as the historical/social/cultural context, and yet *rigidly* literal in their interpretation
Bart Ehrman, the author of Misquoting Jesus, says in his introduction to that book that he was a literal interpreter of the Bible until he started studying it, whereupon he became more convinced that, since no one really knows what the original writers of the Bible truly wrote (the earliest written manuscript remaining at this point dates to the 4th century), you can't really interpret it literally.
