Iranian Election Thread
This is very good for both Iran and the US.

Aaron Poreda called up
Probably got a status alert. Something that isn't "OMFG SOOOO DRUNK" at 3 AM on Facebook kinda stands out.

What politicians do you like? Or have you liked?
I really do like Barack Obama, as cliched as that may sound. Bernie Sanders is another one I like too.

Guns & Religion.

World of Warcraft
Warlocks are pretty hard to play, but maybe that just goes for all clothies. I got it to 19, pretty confident, and poor Arulparagasm got raped in the battlegrounds. The holy pally and the rogue were never such easy things to kill.

War in Sri Lanka Over
GMAFB, where did anyone in America hear about this conflict? It was probably the biggest victory in the entire Global War on Terror and barely anybody knew it ever happened. Was there even a post on ST regarding this war? If there was did anybody even respond? You can call me an elitist/stuck-up college kid/whatever but the very thing I'm accusing this board, and on a broader level the entire country, of couldn't be more true. -There is no 'y' in the word political.

War in Sri Lanka Over
I know nobody cares about wars between brown people and brown people, but this might be the end of the most prolific terrorist organization in the world. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/may/1...ender-sri-lanka

Court mandated chemo
Abortion is a little different because there is actually a debate as to whether a fetus is life. There is no debate as to whether a child is life.

The Republican Thread
Who is going to be accountable for this? This kid's dumber at 14 than most people are 45.

Hurricane in Carbondale?
This is what I show people to illustrate what went down. Use the people as a scale to grasp the absolute monstrosity of that rootball.

GOP, RNC to rebrand Democrats as 'Socialists'
You really have to stop using that word "Socialistic", kap. This will be a hit with extreme far-right base, but of course the more those guys embrace anything the more nobody else wants a part of it. Red Scare didn't work in November and it wont work now.

Hurricane in Carbondale?
Definitely Sonik, you bring the hookers and I'll bring the drugs. Bad news for CDale: http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?C...Field2=-89.2174

Hurricane in Carbondale?
Trueblood is so much better than Lentz... I'm shocked that place passes inspection. Either way I'll be right down the street from Sonik next year! Creekside 09!

I gtfo'd once I realized I had no food and no means to get more.

My pet conspiracy theory
The USSR did something a lot like this in the Cold War to get their hands on USD, they called them Eurodollars. I'm not sure exactly who else in the world wants USD's who couldn't get them (Venezuela? Iran?) but for them it's a total win/win. If the US Treasury doesn't default on loans the other governments get to trade in $'s and if we do default that's the global hegemony shift they've been praying for.

Hurricane in Carbondale?
this was fairly typical everywhere.

Hurricane in Carbondale?
Here's what happened: Friday was the last day of finals so everyone was kind of packing up and getting read to move out. Weather was s***ty in the morning, but more the miserable Chicago weather s***ty than the Gulf Coast in hurricane season s***ty. Around 12:00 it got pretty bad, winds at about 50 mph. Half hour later, 106 mph winds sustained for at least 20 minutes. A bunch of cars got crushed by trees, the town isn't going to have power until probably next weekend and the radio stations were telling people to ration food and water for the long haul. My dad took 4 hours to get from Marion to Carbondale because a semi got blown over on Route 13. It was pretty bad.

World of Warcraft
What classes were the three other chars? DK's got nerfed like crazy in the patch. I guess they cant tank the way they used to.

World of Warcraft
Hey man, I'm actually on the same server as William Shatner. I think his Shaman is capped though so I never see him around the lower level zones where I'm stuck now.

If You Were King...
hehe I would ban marketing of any sort. None is allowed. You can't advertise for anything anywhere.

World of Warcraft
WoW is the s*** and there better be other people here who play. I got a level 50 subtlety rogue named Malkmus who can out-dps 55 fury warriors. He rocks. My WoW cock is enormous.

What grade would you give Obama in his first 100 Days?
A-/B+ We'll see how he does with the SCOTUS though.

Official 2008-2009 NBA Thread
Hell yes. This Bulls/Celtics series is that kind of thing where right after the game ends you go out with your friends who are still freaking out and high-5 random people you overhear talking about the same thing- which is pretty much everyone.
