I haven't heard enough of the Cosby evidence to really have an opinion.
I think OJ was guilty as sin, but I don't think it's surprising he was acquitted. LAPD was guilty of quite a few things at the time as well, IMO they're 100% responsible for creating reasonable doubt.
I was sent to non-denominational church as well. Nothing even remotely abusive or creepy happened to me ... I need to find some other excuse to have a trainwreck of a life

I was scratched on my arm by an old bag nun in preschool, maybe because I peed behind a tree at recess. Lmao, I remember my neighbors complaining about me doing that, favorite spot side of the house by the chimney.

This reminds me of a weird memory.... my elementary school was in a fairly old building that had 2 private bathrooms in each classroom. That school had to have damn near 100 bathrooms, god bless those janitors.
But anyway, I remember in second grade there was an epidemic of boys pissing all over the floor, not unlike the Men's bathroom in a casino. Well the teacher got particularly fed up with the piss one day, and said if it didn't stop she would start "aiming it" herself if any of us boys needed to pee.
I just thought she was being a whiny adult at the time, but now thinking back it definitely seems like she'd be arrested for that comment nowadays. I don't think she ever actually aimed and wieners, just threatened...

She called him like 50 something times after the alleged assault. From what I understand she may have called a lawyer specializing in civil litigation before telling the authorities.
They had also been exchanging gifts, I'm not sure if this was before or after.
As far as OJ and Mike Tyson goes, I just say all famous black people are innocent, that way no one can ever claim I'm racist (-;

Thanks for the 3AM existential crisis.
I don't believe anyone knows what happens after death, but I believe anything you could think up is possible. But my best guess is that absolutely nothing happens. We didn't have any consciousness before we were born, so what would lead anyone to believe there's any consciousness after death?
It's sort of a uncomfortable thought sometimes. If you believe in the nothingness theory, you don't even get to look forward to figuring out what happens once you die, it would just all go to black in an instant. Which is why I think people turn to religion, there's a lot of comfort in believing in a higher power's plan and a life after death.
I'm up for any possibility, for all we know we could be living in some intergalactic kid's earth simulation minecraft.

These are UPSCALE culinary items. NOx is the usual abbreviation since people become confused between nitrogen, nitrous oxide, nitric oxide, etc.Quote: gamerfreakYou can buy whipped cream dispensers that use little metal nitrous oxide (laughing gas) canisters that are under high pressure.
There are actually significant health benefits involved though most users probably just are interested in conspicuous consumption.
Of course its also a great way to consume very refreshing drinks and deserts while ingessting rather insignificant amounts of calories. This tends to be of great interest to females for some reason!!!

OJ: Guilty as hell. Bad cops, trial should have been in upscale west los angeles but they filed it downtown where jury pool is civil servants, drug addicts and welfare recipients. Criminalist failed to seize the dark blue sweats in the washing machine and failed to sample the water or seize the filter. Attorney Kardashian would not be violating the law in retrieving the sweats from the machine and removing them from the house.

As far as the Flamingo goes I do not feel certain enough to state its present condition but a decade ago the term "high roller" at the Flamingo could mean either 'wealthy gambler' or 'tall hooker'.
As a 'fleastiff', I obviously avoid each.

Oh no. After all there was that Canadian humorist who got Americans to urge Canada to refrigerate the Canadian Parliament's meeing place, The National Igloo, from the ravages of global warming. As well as to urge Canadians to abandon the Metric Minute of fiftytwo seconds and adopt the American minute of sixty seconds. And to raise the age at which elderly Canadians are put out on the ice floe and to urge Canadians to buy a jet plane rather than just propeller planes. And best of all he got Americans to sign a petition to buy shoes for the sore footed Moose who when evacuated from Canada to Prince Edward Island always walk back to Vancouver again.Quote: PokerGrinderBasically he just confirmed one fact that I know to be true, Americans are ignorant and like he said only worry about the US.

1. Canadians get free health care but are left to die when it comes to needing serious things done.
2. Their money is always fluctuating and is weak, oh and also looks like play money.
3. Their accents are worse than people from boston. And this comes from someone who lIves in pittsburgh

Guess all the charges that I'm really a Canadian are true.
1. Canada is the second largest country and has the biggest coastline, yet it's a country that more or less just "came to be" as opposed to obtained via conflict.
2. It is the Saudi Arabia of the West regarding fossil fuels.
3. It is home to the Kingdom of Saguenay.
4. Ontario alone holds about 1/4 of all the worlds' fresh water.
5. It has the longest country border in the world, 100% of which has no military presence.
6. The US has an open invitation where if Canada wished to become part of the Union, it will be accepted immediately.
7. It was named by the Iroquois "Kanata", which means "Village".
8. It's national animal is the beaver, symbol the maple leaf.
9. Any Canadian can request and have delivered for free to their home a picture of the Queen.
10. You're not allowed to carry any weapon in defense of human attack, including those which are non-lethal.
11. The entire province of Alberta does not contain a single rat.
12. The border from Wisconsin all the way to Oregon cannot be breached by American soldiers.
13. Fur trout.
14. More people live in Tokyo than all of the Great White North.

You can spot a Canadian by how many times they say "sowry", mention Tom Hortons, or if say "zed" instead of "zee" when referring to the letter Z.
With Americans, you can somewhat tell how rich they are by what kind and how many cars they own.

Halifax is a cool city to spend an afternoon in. It's the ten hour round trip from the nearest point of civilization that hurts the tourist trade.

I don't think most Americans know, or really care, but Canada did provide the bulk of the non-French military that fought the Kaiser to a stand still until Uncle Sam got its act together.
It gave us Neil Young ,so there is that.
