Re: Ohio man, 81, fatally shoots Uber driver, 61, after scammers target both of them

It's only a serious crime in Utah, Arizona, Florida, and Idaho, I believe. It's legal in the overwhelming majority of US states, and even in the states where it's not legal, it's only classified as a misdemeanor in some of them like California. A cousin of mine married a girl who was 17 and he was ...

Re: Pissing on "Frenchy"'s Grave?; Or, a Case Study in Mopologetic Selfishness

...do with Interpreter, apart from attending the odd meeting once every month or two... what about "supervising" filming projects strategically organized in New York? I hear it's beautiful country.

Re: Pissing on "Frenchy"'s Grave?; Or, a Case Study in Mopologetic Selfishness

But it *could*, of course, and that was the point of my OP: Dr. Peterson *could* have taken care of those "vicarious temple dealings." But he didn't. He was content, instead, to merely milk this story for personal gain, and for "clicks" on his blog. And yet, all along, he has believed that Frenchy ...

I'd like to see more Christlike service from the Proprietor, and less posing for the camera.

Re: Ohio man, 81, fatally shoots Uber driver, 61, after scammers target both of them

Wouldn't it be worse if a cognitively impaired woman takes care of a cognitively impaired man? No, because they can do their best, together. They can laugh together as they try, thinking back to the full life they had when they were young. That life drastically shortened when after a few years, the...

Re: What's with older men and younger women:

Re: Why does having a megathread feel offensive to people?

That's because you're interested in having a discussion. People who get megathreads do little but derail other threads in order to pursue their pet grievances. Or rather, their pet grievance. Usually it's just one thing, or tight cluster of similar things. Since the main point is to stop all other d...

Re: Ohio man, 81, fatally shoots Uber driver, 61, after scammers target both of them

I agree, but men over 29 marrying young women is probably a good idea. There are two problems with your response. The first is your own bias toward your own needs at the moment. It just so happens you are in your thirties now -- when you're in your fifties, then what's your response going to be? Ar...
