Kid on the floor got sick from the lollipop, so he looks bad, and that's not a towel it's a hat (like the kid entering the store). And don't you think kids of all ages get candy? The big one could just be older...... but I like your explanation better

Fuck you and your shitty existential questions keeping me up at night. I've been typing for an hour now and it's goddamn 2am and I have to get up at 6.
I've done a lot of thinking in the last hour though, and I think I've figured out the difference.

I think the difference between real and false love is how you treat yourself compared to the person you love.
Real love is when you consider yourselves equals. You don't bow to their whims and you
don't force them to bow to yours. You don't abuse them and you don't take their shit either. If you know that you have extremely bad qualities that will negatively affect this person, you'll try to better yourself to be worthy of that person. And you expect that they'll do the same for you. I guess the ultimate goal for a person in love is to see the object of their affections at their best.

Harley and the Joker don't act this way. Harley adores him but she never really speaks out against him. Instead, she does what she's told even though she doesn't always agree with it, and he completely ignores her objections.The Joker treats her like a convenient tool more than anything. He doesn't see her as an equal, and he doesn't respect her.
Their love isn't real. It's fake as balls. They're just too fucked up to realise it.

I think the question is, what if the best you can be isn't good enough? The joker is a murdering psychopath genius who spends most of his time in solitary confinement and kills purely for the fun of it without an ounce of remorse or regret. The whole abusive boyfriend routine might actually be the best and most honest version of himself possible. Because sure you can pretend to be perfect, but even if you can pull it off that's not you really you being in the relationship.
Ofcourse i'm not saying harley shouldn't get the fuck away because it's still not healthy but considering how fucked up joker is that might be the extent of his ability to feel and express love.

Knives in his drawer

Yeah i caught that too, also the needles or something in the box to his left and the fact that the kid on the floor looks nearly mummified and has a towel (i think) around his head. I'm assuming the kid died recently because the lolly pop is lying on the floor next to him... come to think of it there's no proof that they're dead really they could just be being stored for later unknown use, which would kinda fit because one of the kids in those tubes looks bigger than the other two.
Shit i guess it does get creepier the more you look at it... or think about it anyway.

If we start accepting them in, despite not immigrating through the proper, legal channels, then people will start demanding that you let in the other illegal immigrants, and before you know it you have just as much of a population crisis as China does, with less jobs to go around.

We already grant Cubans citizenship outside the normal procedures, it's not like there's no precedent for permanent citizenship en mass for the sake of asylum and Cuba isn't even that bad compared to the shitstorm that is the middle east. Even if we "win" i doubt it's ever really going to not be a politically and socially repressed shithole.

But at that point, they're just immigrants. Unless they go back when it's safe, they're not refugees.

So?
Also, there is somewhat of a difference between citizenship and refugee status (i think, could be wrong but it seems like it), i suspect that a lot of the reason those people are asking would be for some of the more minor legal benifits that come with living in this country as a full citizen. Like i said to begin with though i don't see the problem with coming and wanting to stay, plus some of them will probably never be safe or not have homes to return to at this point....

And don't demand permanent residency, which is what they do.

No. I don't care if they want permanent residency, i can't say i blame them for not wanting to go back home, shit even if it was safe i can't say i fault them for wanting to stay in the US.

But at that point, they're just immigrants. Unless they go back when it's safe, they're not refugees.

But they aren't trying to escape those values, or they would have done it much sooner. The problem is, when they get here, they start pushing for things to be like it was back home. They demand full time residence. They're not refugees, they're immigrants.

I'm fine with people immigrating as long as they don't expect us to change to suit them. It's also fine to carve out a local community of like minded individuals, just don't expect the whole world to morph into your home country.

I think tumblr actually tags posts when you use hashtags, not sure though.

Saddams regime? You know it was ultimately found that there was no prewar cooperation between Saddam and al-Qaeda, in addition to no weapon of mass destruction being found. If we hadn't fucked with things i'm not saying it would have been perfect, but aside from them possibly deciding not to give the US oil they likely would be a hell of a lot less war-torn than they are now. One of the main selling points of ISIS is "Fuck you america" and i wonder why that works so well? Shit man even the real terrorists in the region weren't half as well trained or well armed as we thought they were. Oh and if you're talking about regime change in terms of politics and spreading democracy to the area then i guess our next stop better be china, huh? Oh but wait we're not going to do that because they make all our shit and we're in debt to them. It's not about the need to spread democracy and freedom to the area it's a thinly veiled excuse to go in and take something we want.

That's as near to a good definition of "funny" as you'll get. The unexpected is by far the biggest source of the feeling of mirth in humans.

Example: think of any joke. Here, I'll give you one: "Why does Dr. Pepper come in a bottle?" The rational thought process would be to think "well it's an efficient way to distribute a soft drink.." but when it is revealed that the answer is "because he's single", it has become humor, because you were mislead or caught off-guard by the wit of the speaker. The revelation is what results in mirth.

By the same token, you would think this story might be a sad one where a guy connects on an emotional level with someone with whom he had only carnal connections beforehand, as you would imagine any rational person would do in the situation the poster had set up. However, it is humorous in that the story took an unexpected turn; he did not make a rational decision, but rather a very outlandish decision. This bait-and-switch form of wit is the very crux of the human sense of humor. The punch ranges from spoonerism, to homonyms, all the way to "basement-dweller turns out to be a complete dick". "Jarring" is perhaps the most extreme feeling elicited from this "witty deception", but it falls within the realm of humor quite comfortably.

That's a good point, but a lot of thumbs on this site are also herd mentality, see green vote green and vise versa. If only we didn't take ourselves so seriously maybe
