A god among men.

Did he pronounce the word "atheist" somehow funny in the last one?

4:42 ... wtf man

But I guess my main complaint is that I can't stand this style of rap. The main guy doesn't appear to have any idea where the beat is, he just blathers on, nearly incoherent.

Actually he's pretty good at imitating Jay Z's rap style. Have you heard the original?

Jay Z's flow can sound a bit awkward sometimes but once you get used to it it's pretty cool and unique.

Soo basically, you don't need any artistic ability anymore. Just point and click.


I don't think any artistic ability has ever been required to clone brush an object off the sky or remove lens flares.

Well, OK, maybe when there were no computers...

Upvote for the turn signal.

(Gasp!) A full-figured snow sculpture!? NO THANK YOU!
I'll take my women malnourished and covered in overpriced Gucci. Like Cosmo and Playboy tell me to.

"It's sort of like the GPS of astronomy"

What?

It's baffling how bad analogies scientists can come up with, especially in science documentaries on BBC etc. Sometimes it gets so confusing that even a person who's studied the subject has a hard time following what they're talking about. Almost every damn sentence starts "it's kind of like..." and it's another very far fetched analogy that neglects dozens of details and misleads the less educated viewer.

How was that "Ron Paul to Obama"? Was Barack Obama in the same room listening to this speech? Sounded to me like he was talking to the Congress and American people.

Wtf was that all about?!

Did Nixon look in the mirror and think he was fat?

People jump on tables if there is a mouse on the floor. Give the bear a break... little creatures are fucking creepy.

I would just like to thank the good people of Razor1911.

OK, maybe I should have given a longer description about what knowing history is, but I certainly didn't say it's ONLY dates and names. I'd still say it's hardly more than remembering a lot of stuff.

Even understanding that x caused y is usually specific for its time period and thus understanding one event doesn't lead to understanding all events with similar circumstances. And "understanding that x caused y" is basically the same as "remembering that x caused y" when it comes to knowing history.

Also I'm not American and I can't exactly relate to the public school system of the US, so I can't speak much about the exact details of the teaching, but I can however criticize enoch's arguments (which are still very hard to read...)

Edit: and btw, enoch, in my opinion it would help a lot if you gave an example of the way you think teachers SHOULD teach (history for example).

enoch, you can't teach history without a bunch of dates and names. If you want to talk about teaching problem solving, take a subject where there are actual problems to solve. Like mathematics or physics...

Knowing history is remembering who did what, when and where, and what was the impact on future events. Usually the point of history classes is to teach the bigger picture, but you can't exactly say "and then x and then y and then z..." without any timeframes etc.

And you yourself said that many of the teachers were poorly educated. I guess it's good to not let them teach their own bullshit but to follow the curriculum designed by smarter and better educated people. Also looking at your writing I suspect you're not very highly educated either.

Made more sense than The Phantom Menace.

Just makes me wonder WTF was WTC7 made out of...

Or maybe they designed it so that it would be super easy to bring down when its time came.
