I wonder if there was an "Occupy Poland," again?


Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

LOL!

I think we can be pretty certain about France.

You know how the Brits intentionally murder French by pronouncing it phonetically? How come we never did that on this side of the Atlantic? OK, I mean, aside from the bitterness left over from 3 centuries of Norman rule.

At least we have Detroit. So what if you can buy a house there for $7,800.00, it's still not Detwa!

You may be laughing now, but you'll be thanking them when all the banks pay us back.

That'll be the day.

That is awesome, particularly number 7.

My feeling about it is that it's been given a lot of negative coverage, and the coverage has largely been of the nutballs on the outskirts. I think there is a legitimate complaint to be made here, which can be summed up by this series of graphs:

As to how they plan to accomplish this change, well, sometimes you need to make a lot of noise to be noticed--especially when you don't have the money to be noticed.

So, does that mean if you worked for the only company in America that had people employed for them, that everyone else would stand around outside your building and wish you were dead?

That's a rather pointless question. Reduction ad absurdum can be a useful rhetorical tool, but it is so often overused in this day and age.
