Either way, hard to say how right you are.
You'll be fine. As long as you look somewhat Asian then they don't care.
Now, if you look Cocasian, then they still don't care. Really.
Well, after just recently come back from Japan, there are several things.
1) Ride the Shinkansen. Riding on the fastest train in the world is pretty cool.
2) Visit Harajuku. If you ever want to see Japanese randomness, this is the place to go.
3) Go to Hiroshima. It's depressing, it's sad, but you need to go and see the memorial there.
There's too much electronic mumbo jumbo here.
I will now break it up with 1 serious word.

The real question of torture is do the ends justify the means?
If you answer yes, then torture is acceptable. In you say no, then it isn't.
It's a simple question.

But I don't think some people are meant to be Wal-Mart greeters.
Former Vice President Dick Chaney anyone?
Saw this ad on my page, and I couldn't stop laughing for some reason.

Note all my son's dinosaur shizzle in the background.
Kitty looks evil.
It has that glare in her eye.
Fli, that look awesome, will check out later.
BTW, may be sending out a PM for a better SF meet-up. Check inbox if so.
It's not the swine flu, but it is the flu.
I think I waited too long for the vaccine shot.
With 5 days off and a change in scenery, what do I get?
Flu. Just fucking great.

Well, the problem is X, because as a variable, it means anything.
In your set of equations, you assumed x=1, but it can mean any number. So If I put in 2, it doesn't come out the same.
Well, I'd be off.
I'm out of town for a few, so see you guys on the other side.
On the off hand chance, I downloaded Google Chrome and WOAH
Yes, I did in fact just do a Keanu Reeves impression. You can laugh now.
Anyways, I read your review stafff. And once I see the movie, I'll kindly disagree.

I dunno. I've been getting the same thing, and I thought I had a virus or something and did a system restore.

Gee.....that sounds like lunch break at the office.
hm.....
I still like Colin's remarks whenever they do a Hollywood Director sketch. I use them sometimes at work.
You notice why the floor is so clean? Because you all SUCK!
You know that feeling you get, the one in the lower part of the stomach? The one that raises when somethings going to happen, but you don't know what?
Happened to myself today. It came when I was about to leave work. Sure enough, as I was halfway out the door, it came. Right on time, because as I walked back in to the office, CRASH. Car accident. Probably would of been injured, if not dead. Amazing thing.
After awhile, do you begin to trust it?

and frankly any argument of "i wasn't trolling, i didn't call anyone a faggot" is not going to hold up. If you say stupid shit for the sake of riling people up, you WILL get banned. This forum has a much higher standard for discussion and if you can't get your shit straight before you post and you think it's cute to go into a hot-topic thread and say some pig headed shit, you won't get a reaction. You will get banned and your post will be deleted.
That's very true, but the problems I have with reporting people is that the majority of the people you've described are the "post and run" type, and their posts to me on the edge. However, I do keep a little black book (in the back of my mind) of everybody's posting type, so I do know sometimes if I recognize a name if someone's trolling or like what you said, just being a dumbass.

Not only do employment contracts generally prohibit bad-mouthing your company/supervisors even off the clock under penalty of termination, the restaurant claims to have also found that they were releasing confidential information.If this is the case, the firing seems quite reasonable, I think.
It depends on the type of contract and so forth. From the information here, it seems illogical, but as with many other issues the more information the easier it is to draw a safer conclusion.
I would say I'm a tad bit more conservative than my parents, but as far as main political policies we're pretty much the same.

It still works. It's not like there's an expert on Medieval mythology on here.
You got to know all the drink though man. All of them by memory, or else you look pretty damn foolish.
It's cold and wet and it's cold and wet. Only one thing to do today, tea/coffee and a good long novel.
I'm thinking Hemingway.

While you're dodging tornadoes, I'm dodging bad traffic in the rain.
Apparently wearing sunglasses and a totally buttoned up overcoat makes you a prime target for cars. Hmm.

How about a stress orange ball?
Because that's what I've been using recently.
Also:
Stress balls actually do work. Amazing. Probably a placebo effect, but still, great.
Filarious.
Fucking-hilarious. In the same league as fugly, or fucking ugly.
*grabs law textbook and various other books*
yeah.......sorry, not my specialty here.
Anyways, last day of evals, performance checks from last year. Still looking good.
How about we're missing the obvious reason here: Fox didn't want to interfere with their prime time slot?
Well, he gave his speech, which, for the most part, was predictable.
What did the rest of you guys think?
