Yeah, I couldn't enjoy a nice cider for a good two years after the terrible moving-car-vomit incident of 2007. If you're willing to give whiskey one more chance, you should try Jameson. Irish whiskey is distilled differently to Scotch, so it's not as smoky.

Dude. She's six. (Wait. Are you this guy?)

Whiskey > rum That said I enjoy the odd mojito. But generally my association with rum is drinking it mixed with coke when I was younger and then feeling nauseous. So I don't really go for it.

I mean, it sounds to me like she has some kind of special needs-type-thing and should be in a school which can cater for that. But that's up to her parents, I guess.

Um...no. I don't know how you extrapolated that from my comments. A six-year-old with a weapon is different to an unarmed six-year-old. That's a completely different situation that should be dealt with differently. However, it'd still be completely against policy here for police to restrain...

I don't know what the rules are in the US. But here in Ireland, most schools will have a policy stating that a kid can't be taken off school grounds by anyone other than their parents, without parental consent. They don't have the authority to pass the kid over to another authority. The child's...

Well, if it's your own kid, obviously restrain them all you want. But in a school, there are policies, you can't just go ahead and restrain them for the sake of protecting your stuff. Even in the event of someone being harmed, it's not really allowed. There's all kinds of health and safety laws...

With discipline, positive reinforcement and other such methods. Or else you choose not to immediately deal with it, let her trash the place while ensuring she doesn't harm herself or others (I mean come on it's a six year old what is she really going to achieve) and then deal with her when she...

In Ireland, school policy dictates that you're not supposed to restrain a child or even really touch them. However, sometimes it's necessary because the child is a danger to others. But by "restrain" we're not talking about handcuffs...we're talking about dragging the kid off whoever they're...

Get them before they get you.

This one time, I was playing in the college cafeteria with headphones in and I was crawling through an air-vent minding my own business when suddenly a headcrab just dropped down out of nowhere and started jumping in my face and I started screaming and then everybody in the room was looking at...

That's weird. I love my boyfriend, but he is stupid sometimes. Conclusion: All boys are dumb bitches! (I love my granny too, and she's really stupid sometimes. So all elderly people must be dumb bitches. This logic is leading me to many conclusions).

The more I think about this, the funnier it gets. Because I mean, technically, this is in direct defiance of the laws of causality (if an event happens at t = 0, the consequences of the event cannot happen before t = 0). So the Arizona government have taken it upon themselves to break the laws...

Why don't they just come out and declare the uterus to be government property?

Just roll with it, seriously. Don't freak out too much over it. Be nice to everyone, try to make yourself happy, and let whatever is going to happen just happen. Take comfort from the fact that relationship issues always seem more complicated and tragic than they are.

Well....I don't know, that's not really what I was saying. The issue is that this situation is the product of men usually earning more than women, and women usually getting custody of the children in the event of a divorce (often a mutual agreement, sometimes court-ordered, not always deservedly...

Do the laws actually discriminate against gender specifically though? Surely it's the spouse who has the kids that gets the child support payments, which could either be the man or the woman (and similarly, the spouse who earns more gives alimony to the spouse who earns less, I'm guessing...in...

To be fair, this whole Briffault's law thing is crazy too though. One law being unfair =/= all womans are evil. This level of hatred and anger doesn't help anyone or change anything.

Alimony seems kind of dated to me...I mean, it's more normal now for both partners to be working, so it just doesn't seem necessary. Also, why should you benefit from a relationship that you are no longer in? I mean, if I split up with my boyfriend, I won't still expect him to drive me places...

Yeah, let me clarify actually: Having a distinctive stanley knife meant that if somebody else stole it, I'd know :p Seriously, you leave your stanley knife down for two seconds and someone else "borrows" it for a minute to cut something and then you never see it again. ****ing actors. (Edit...
