The Global War on Terror 5.0: Putin on the Risk

Weird thing about pumpkin pie. I hate the smell of pumpkins (don't ask, some deep-seated Halloween anxiety or something, I dunno either) and I have assiduously avoided pumpkin pie all these years because of it. But I just had pumpkin pie for the first time last year and I LOVE it! It doesn't taste anything like pumpkin smells at all. On the scent/taste dichotomy scale it has to be second only to vanilla extract.

Because I don't really keep up on this thread you're just now getting my reply that is in no way tangential to this thread.

Pumpkins used for jack-o-laterns are not the same pumpkins used for making pies. The pie pumpkins are smaller, less stringy, and generally sweeter than those you'll see people carve for Halloween. There are a few varieties of pumpkin that can be used for pies, including some squash varieties. After that they're usually so spiced and sweetened that they likely taste only slighly like the base inputs used.

ISIS about to go tri-state.

On the Beeb today they had a Turkish defense minister who kinda gave the game away. He was asked whether the Turkish military could handle ISIS and he responded, "yeah, we're not worried. They're kind of a joke." Then he was asked whether Turkey might request financial aid from the US and he responded "OMG, we are facing an existential crisis! It is imperative that you send lawyers, guns, and money! Particularly money."

ISIS is also using a great judo move. If they can't take an objective, one of their fighters crawls up on it and plants a black flag. Fifteen minutes later the USAF bombs it into rubble for them. Your tax dollars at work.

OK, that one will get you some pretty good points too.

And the East German "lady" athletes used to get lots of points, too.

But the East German judge gave it a 9.4.

The breast feeding is second wave feminism. You're about 30 years out of date.

As far as rape culture goes, yeah, I can't imagine why it bothers them. How weird!

Yeah, I don't care much about breast feeding. It needs to be done, things can be done to placate the objections.

The "rape culture" stuff however is complete bunk. Making jokes about rape is not supporting rape in the same vein that dead baby jokes are supportive of a "dead baby culture". Yes, we shouldn't be doing things such as slut shaming and the like but, posting an image of Pinkie Pie with a "there are no brakes on the rape train" caption is not supporting rape.

You're gonna start getting the box for diving if you keep going down so often on the chilled speech whine, Pio.

You should know. Your bigotry is on display here daily. And includes denying others the right to speak. Especially if they're "fundys."

Clearly, the answer is to minimize due process protections for college guys and allow ideologically driven educrats to determine when "rape" occurs. And what the punishments should be. Wouldn't want to get the cops involved.

"Women's health" = free birth control (even for cows who can afford 60K tuition at Catholic law schools).

But, but, but breast feeding is natural. Yeah, well so is belly button lint and dingle berries.

Are you female? If so, I guess I apologize?

I was referring to the people who think we should have a 24-hour breastfeeding network on broadcast TV.

You're a little late on the "moderate Muslim should speak out..." canard. There have been a zillion stories the last week of them doing just that.

Your direct statement was "religion of peace" ... blah blah blah. That was a bigoted statement. I accept your apology.

Luckily, our own local heroes are on the case.

Re: The Global War on Terror 5.0: Putin on the Risk

To counter your inference that I'm a bigot, I was referring to the ISIS savages, not all Muslims. Having said that, it's far past time for the moderate Muslims around the world to speak up against the atrocities being perpetrated against members of their own religion as well as the "infidels".
