  • Thanks BJ Nomnom. I’m not sure you were the right man to write this book.

  • No they hang around the gate like vultures with credit card machines. At that point there’s nothing you can do except pay. This explains all the dickwaddery that’s been going on in the last few years. We call them ThievyJet.

  • Same story as the Costa Concordia.

  • He also gets called Dick a fair bit in Hollywood circles I believe.

  • Not sure but something like Bob for Robert or Dick for Richard.

  • Possible, his family called him Chevy short for Cornelius. Might have been a knowing joke on their part but ostensibly there is no connection.

  • Not necessarily. A true sociocracy would value corporations on a system of social good. Not, as now, a measure of how much spare money it has after trade and costs. It should also be very possible to run corporations as co-operatives which spread ownership among the workers.

  • Capitalism breeds fascism. As long as we have capitalism we will fight fascism. Communism is not the answer though nor is any extreme ideology. Social direct democracy or even sociocracy would be better systems.

  • Weaselling out of things is what separates us from the animals. (Except the weasel). Homer

  • Another Brexit benefit. Zero checks on food imports. Thanks Brexit.

  • Are people allowed to make mistakes? Are some mistakes beyond forgiveness? Should someone pay for their mistakes forever?

  • Exactly. The way to win people over isn’t to smash up their house and then tell them to build themselves one like yours. You need to build them a better place to live that feels doable for them and ask them to move in. Forgive my metaphor but it makes sense to me.

  • Here is this the archive of misheard song lyrics. https://www.kissthisguy.com It’s named after purple haze by Jimmy Hendricks. “‘Scuse me while I kiss this guy”

  • Is there some confusion with this meme? Socialism isn’t communism.
