it's not just the government. that's pretty much the response of any of the majority that voted for that government. it's embedded into our culture.

pointing out a mistake is greater sacrilege than committing that mistake in the first place. press freedom is the lowest it's been. and we have things like stand-up comics being arrested for "hurting sensitivities".

the OP is right. we indians will always sweep info about our mistakes under the rug and this country, therefore, will never improve.

i haven't seen it yet. i have a sort of obsession with order so i'll watch it only after watching close encounters of the first kind and close encounters of the second kind.

you're insinuating urination?

the creator of this meme originally wanted to include mars instead of earth (which would have made it more technically accurate), but couldn't because it is the men that are supposed to be from mars.

yep. space facts can be quite arousing, indeed.

better than having a stroke to nude pics.

wouldn't those funds be better invested into developing a hard mode that makes you fly only boeing aircraft?

sometimes, one thinks, any intelligence for government would be a good idea.

ah, the british and their penchant for carving unwanted lines.

ah, so it was another misunderstanding, then. she was taught that the queen can do absolutely anything on the chess board and proceeded accordingly.

wait till you hear about their approach to roulette!

damn. how would russians watch unwanted ads now?

would it be about control? a fantasy about having access to a modernised version of a slave who is bound to do the protagonist's oft-perverted bidding with reduced rights of their own?

so when do they actually reveal the gander, then?

or is the menu filled only with sauce for the geese?

very aptly named newspaper. one upon which i'll refrain from depending.

you do know that you are technically dead-naming, right?

huh. looks like OP was left out of that loop.

for a minuscule impact on climate.

who defines what is miniscule here? what if an oil baron deems 20% to be miniscule? do we all go swimming in their blackened beaches?

how is 2% miniscule? and who says that emission reduction exercises have to stop at 2%?

it's sometime very easy to minimise the seriousness of something with the clever use of generic statements. there are enough spin doctors already trying to pull the wool over our eyes--we don't need to help them by also shooting ourselves in the foot.

she asked if i had a pen name.

"bic", i responded.
