Where did my sodding avatar/profile pic for this forum go?  How longs it been missing?  Why didn't I notice before?  Did I ever have one?  Pretty sure I did.  Maybe I imagined it.  Maybe my whole life up to this point was imagined.  Oh myyyy gaaaawwwd!

I've decided to become a Republican. Mostly because it's a lot less taxing on my mind. On economic issues, I just need to remember the three principles: "Privatize it", "The free market can handle that", and "support Israel". On social issues, I just need to ask "What would Paul from Corinthians say?"

So easy. And with that line of thinking, I thought of a great way to privatize the army.

Isn't it still a few days too early to announce that?

There is a politician campaigning with the slogan "representing the white heterosexual christian minority."


...Which may sound like yet another white guy complaining about how they are being opressed but someone did point out that he really is in the minority. Christians in Finland only make up 27% of the population and propably not all of them are white and/or heterosexual.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Well, it depends how you define Christian. If you mean someone who truly believes in Christian doctrines, follows them and goes to church and/or other religious gatherings then yes, he is in a minority. If you mean someone who vaguely identifies as such and belongs to a church but it doesn't show in his life - maybe he believes in a vague greater power and sees Christianity as a part of the Finnish culture - he is in a majority.

What the fuck are hotcakes and how is that they've set the standard for things people love to buy quickly while I've never even seen one before?

Aren't hotcakes basically slutty pancakes?

I did a Google search. The first result was the Finnish Wikipedia article about pancakes. Take that as you will.

Hotcakes = pancakes = griddlecakes = flapjacks

They're all synonyms

Trump would probably be a good president if his policies weren't so dadaist (i.e the wall, the immigration ban, Trumpcare).

Does anyone take Donald Trump seriously, anymore?

And environmental policies, tax reform, lack of diplomatic skills...

Trump might be a good president if he wasn't Trump.
