Yes, it was interesting and I'm planning to reread it sometime soon, but no it's not a quick easy read. I'd recommend snow crash or the diamond age, they're both fun and easy books.

It's not a rapey song. Yes, to modern us it sounds like it was made by Dennis Reynolds, but no it's not. Before looking too deeply at the lyrics, just ask yourself first, "does it make any sense you write a Christmas duet about raping a woman?" No, it doesn't. It's a playful song about making excuses to stay together longer. It's kind of a crap song anyway, so I'm not even saying this to defend a sign I like; I'd be happy to never hear it again.

I don't understand why anyone would argue against a garden. Should my yard just be grass? Why shouldn't I plant something I can eat in it? It doesn't matter if it's less efficient than industrial farming, it's basically unused land to start with.

The alternative is believing everything without confirming anything, do you think that's better?

Isn't it weird how your mom keeps having sex with your opponents in call of duty?

They are ribbed for your pleasure
