when i first heard about this it sounded like they just had a mode that was optimizing the vehicle's emission levels which sounded good.. turns out, they were detecting when a car was being tested to cheat the control system.. http://www.bbc.com/news/business-34311819.
their shares are down 19% - but larger than the financial fallout is the trust.
this is the worlds largest car manufacturer!.
Simon and SS,
Great lists! The only thing I would add is Slower Traffic Keep Right. If you are in the fast lane and you see my BMW on your ass and no one is in front of you, move over. And if you are in the fast lane, in a multi-lane highway/Interstate, and there are a lot of people lined up behind and no one in front of you - you aren't leading - you're impeding progress.
GTF out of everyone's way, and especially mine.
so i was fooled by the witnesses.
what can i learn from that?
not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.
"I personally found the comment as childish as your insults to those who believe in Jesus."
Good. Mission accomplished, although I was going for sophomoric. But what reason do we have to live if we don't have lofty goals?

The Rebel, aka Uriah Heep, from David Copperfield:
"ll say it again: Uriah Heep. It’s satisfying even to type it. Uriah Heep. I don’t know what it is. An Old Testament prophet gone sour? A pile of wee? Either way, it fits. It is the name of a man who will tell you he is the “umblest person going” while scheming to lord it over you. The name of a man you don’t want to touch. A man indeed, whose very touch will ruin your day – as David Copperfield learned to his expense."
Viviane is a good girl. When she is good, she is very good. When she's bad, she's even better. (OK, Rebel, do your homework, what famous person is known for that line?)

And a liar.

Hurts like hell when it's spot on laser focused accurate, doesn't it Rebel. You resurrected this with insults, so stop playing the victim. It is unbecoming, even though you wear it well, Rod.
And original? You're probably googling Uriah Heep right now to see WTF I'm referring to. It's Dickens, not the rock band, if that helps. And it's Aretha Franklin, Rod Stewart and Michael Myers from the Halloween series. Geesh, once again I'm doing your homework for you.
Another tip. Quit while you are ahead.

saturday, september 19th, 2015: .
earlier today snugglebunny posted a pic of today's "daily text" which is based on a paragraph from the november 15th, 2013 article.
that magazine contains the now infamous maxim: .
Oubilette,
Congratulations on getting your Master's degree. Excellent.
i noticed on the october issue of the awake magazine a much softer stance on the big bang theory.
now, i'm not sure if officially the org was ever against this theory ( i did not find much on this), but i do recall on a congregation level, there was constant mockery from jws about the idea that universe was the result of a big initial explosion.. we now see a softer position on this.
as the org now explains:.
Let's take a vote, class:
Big Bang?
Or Big Bust?
just on of the perks of being an apostate who is married to a branwashed, blinded jw woman.
you know, we have been married for ~27 years....most of which we had nothing to do with the piece of shite cult.
up till the begining of 2014 was when i woke up.
OC,
I don't know anyone, man or woman, who fits what you describe below. And LisaRose, women often use sex as a weapon whether the man loves intimacy or does nearly everything right in a relationship. Those are red herring arguments. But you two keep blame shifting this to men. The generations coming after you don't look like you, and that is excellent. Sex is sex. Being kind, considerate, respectful and affectionate should be a part of every healthy relationship. But sex is sex.
The economics of sex:
Woman: I want safety, trust, intimacy, etc...then I will give you sex.
Man: I want sex. I will give you those things if I get sex first.

OC,
"Frankly, if I had a husband that pulled that scripture out of his ass to force me to have sex with him, I would tell him to go fuck the bible and leave me alone. Using the bible to force a woman to have sex with him is one of the worst weapons that a man can use. It's pathetic, actually. Pathetic and pitiful."
I agree.
