Hasn’t anyone ever gone to a flea market? When you start a negotiation you don’t say the “fair” price. You start way below the price you are willing to pay and the seller starts way higher than the “fair” price. But the point is starting the negotiation and reaching a middle point that satisfies both parties enough to have a deal signed.

I hated Windows from the day I saw the 3.1 floppies had no write tab (that tiny piece that allowed you to write the disk). My first though was “we’ve payed for this and they forbid us to write on them? Fuck MS”. It was the last original Windows in any PC at home. And I used DRDOS, so even worse (Windows 3.11 had a “bug” that made it crash if it ran on DRDOS).

Too many times some shitty person that blamed gays for everything and wanted to rule against them ended up “by mistake” in some party with a dick in his ass.

I think it could make a nice sci-fi saga. Imagine the bible being only a “broken phone” version of space war propaganda.

Before that the Zionists, not the “normal” Jews, where doing terrorist attacks on Palestine. Just like they do now. This shit comes from XIX century. And Zionists have always have the same relation with Judaism like AlQaeda with Muslims.
