I wonder what the religious loonies would say that the Guatemalans did to deserve it.

They undertook the sin of building cities on Karst landscapes.

Seriously. There would have been 11 commandments, but moses only could carry two tablets, single-sided.

A man who called 911 could be deported

Nono, you've got it all wrong. Increased immigration reform can't POSSIBLY increase crime. Because illegal immigration IS a crime.

New Zeland sex abuse trial aborted after elderly juror confessed to arousal at the evidence.

See what happens when you try to live in places where the Coriolis force runs BACKAWARDS? That shit ain't right in the eyes of the lord!

Not really a wtf moment, but we don't really have a catch all news thread. Girl trying to be the youngest to circumnavigate the globe is apperently in some danger at sea.

Man, the number of "Darwinist" shit comments I've seen on that on various news sites is just insane (all the "don't spend good money to save her because blah blah blah").

I mean, I can see where that attitude comes from as some intellectual construct, but er, no?

Its a fuckin' sixteen year old kid lost at sea all by herself. If I could man a fucking rescue effort, I would, but apparently I'm the nicest person on the planet, so that's not a big surprise.

Turns out she's safe anyway. So... ah... Fuck tha Hatas :D

the internet read Dune in 1995 and adores eugenics.

headline: 16 year old girl attempts cooler thing than most people will ever come close to, internet commentators dismissive.

Yeah, I was all like "Jesus Christ, it's nice to see a teenager do something way beyond their years for a change."

It's horribly short sighted in a Darwinist argument to condemn her anyhow. If you assume that the ideal thing is to pass on your genes, doing something that's potentially life-threatening but will provide you with fame and probably some amount of fortune is actually a very positive endeavor for genetic survival. The risk of dying at sea is outweighed by the social benefits of success.

Mongrel · « **Reply #2254 on:** June 11, 2010, 08:55:13 AM »

Well, most of the arguments aren't Darwinist per se... they're more of that horseshit Libertarianism that's been making the rounds "who's gonna pay for this?!? ppl shold fend for themselves she knew what she was getting into omg".

Inevitable posts about the Gold Standard show up soon afterwards.

Reading newspaper comments is pretty unhealthy in general, I find.

In other awesome news: for $200 you too can wield a laser that can quickly and permanently blind someone and also set their skin on fire!

And it looks like a light saber.

I can only assume y'all have heard of the guy who was hunting bin Laden, but this article mentions something important that has been thus far overlooked. (emphasis mine)

[he] packed a 40-inch sword and set off for Afghanistan on a quest to behead Osama Bin Laden.
