Exactly! SG you need to post more, not less. And Brianna god damn you, stop running off just becuase Dana is annoying - it's not fair to the rest of us.

As it says in the title, what opinions do you have that most people seem to disagree with? I'd prefer not to get into actual arguments about them on this thread though, as that could lead to a lot of different arguments going on at once. (Assuming that this thread takes off.) If you want to debate a point made in depth, I think it would be better to start a new thread on it. Anyway:

from the OP. Perhaps it is appropriate that after 500 posts we refresh our memory of that long lost starting request... Or not.

OP here. That wasn't a demand or anything; obviously I can't tell you what to do, I just thought that it might be a good idea to keep this thread what it is rather than just another thread about Iraq/guns/styles of pizza.

I second that. This thread is good enough as is.

Back to the original intent...
+ Aluminum is lighter than titanium. People just buy titanium camping gear because it's cool.

[xoxoxoBruce]

Titanium is much stronger than Aluminum so theoretically they can make things thinner than aluminum with the same strength and weight. Plus it doesn't corrode and has better bragging rights.

The only camping gear worth buying for it's cool factor is a party bag of ice. Camping Equipment either does the job or it doesn't -if it does it's cool regardless of what it's made of or how much it cost. Everybody and evything look silly camping. But that's cool 'cause silly is fun.

That's why I have titanium underwear.

+ Candy and flowers are for women who don't really like sex

Now that one's just not true!

What do you mean?

A co-worker was telling me that he bought his wife flowers and that was my response. (i.e. Candy and flowers are for women who don't really like sex).

[Aliantha]

Well I for one am a woman who likes candy, flowers AND sex. Preferably all at the same time even.

For some reason that made me think of the William Blake poem The Sick Rose, from Songs of Innocence, Songs of Experience:

O ROSE, thou art sick!
The invisible worm,
That flies in the night,
In the howling storm,

Has found out thy bed
Of crimson joy;
And his dark secret love
Does thy life destroy.

Well, maybe not. The meaning of this poem is still hotly debated, but I'm sure it backs up my earlier statement.

The rose is a right wing proponent who has secretly been corrupted by the left and now suffers from something akin to stockholm syndrome which is slowly killing his beliefs.

What does that have to do with candy, flowers and sex?

If you can walk the store you have no business having a disabled parking permit.

No way, only give them to women who are going to give it up or you have plans in that direction, unless you are friends.
Also, we men should be wooed as well.
