[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

One of the author's points was that when health care is available, women can get birth control ... which, unfortunately, is also a no-no to many of the "pro-life" people.

Well that, and you might actually consider having children if you don't think prenatal care, delivery and post-natal and health care for your kids is going to ruin you financially.

Also, women with regular access to health care can be healthier. Seeing a pregnancy through might be a bit more appealing when you're not as worried about dying or ending up permanently disabled at the end of it.

Yeah, that group can suck my metaphorical dick. Seriously. I don't want to find common ground with that bunch of women-as-chattel jackasses. I'd feel too inclined to nuke it.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

no, sweetheart, Jesus did NOT say, "Give a man a fish, feed him for a day..."

Jesus was more of a "fish for everyone and I'll throw in some bread too" kind of guy.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

That Jesus, whatta great host!

“Not dead yet!”

And the wine. Don't forget the wine!

You're ignoring Matthew 25:28-30 (Today's NIV)

'Take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags. 29 For those who have will be given more, and they will have an abundance. As for those who do not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 30 And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Matthew 25:28-30

That passage must be really confusing to those who think everything in the Bible is literally true, and not, you know, some kind of metaphor or something.

The best one for that is the one in Kings where the lord brings forth a couple of bears to tear apart a bunch of kids who make fun of Elisha being bald.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Those passages sound like a drug deal. Gold for ten bags, indeed.

Here we go 2 Kings 2:23-25

23 Then he went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up by the way, young lads came out from the city and mocked him and said to him, “Go up, you baldhead; go up, you baldhead!” 24 When he looked behind him and saw them, he cursed them in the name of the LORD. Then two female bears came out of the woods and tore up forty-two lads of their number. 25 And he went from there to Mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.
