Have a go at it for the new year, folks.
Please post primitive comments that aren't worth a whole thread, but which stand out; I'm sure there's going to be more in 2011 than ever before.

I figured you'd wait until either New Year's Day or Top Primitives results were posted before creating this thread.
No matter. I absolutely can't WAIT for the 2012 Posts That Stand Alone thread. THAT one...will be glorious. :rotf:

No, the new one's usually gone up the same night voting on the top primitives is closed.
I was a few days late this time around.
The deal is, readers like to consult this thread when making nominations or voting, and so it has to stay within the same "time frame."

Algebra question: How to figure a Paypal payment. Can anyone help me?
I have to pay people certain amounts by Paypal, and I have to pay more than what I actually owe each of those other people because Paypal take out some of the money for themselves, and I can't penalize those others because I'm paying them with Paypal.
The Paypal policy is to first take out 30 cents, then take 2.9% of what's left. The remainder goes to the recipient.
What formula can I use to figure out how much to pay so that the recipients get what I owe them?
If you know the answer, please drop by this thread later on and post your opinion. Thanks.

This was in response to other DUmmies complaining that Algebra is required in schools, but never needed in real life. Obviously most DUmmies don't know what Algebra is.

7. The difference between liberals and rightwingers I have found
Edited on Wed Dec-29-10 09:25 PM by tabatha
is that liberals like to make sure that what they think is right (fact checking), whereas conservatives like to think they are right no matter what the facts are.

In these tough and troubling times, why are government contractors allowed a profit?
Wouldn't it be their patriotic duty to cover the employee salaries and office overhead?
We need to make the defense industry non-profit as the patriotic duty of the company involved. This will stimulate the business to seek profit in other sectors, hopefully with needed products. Until the profit is removed, or well diminished, I fear we have no hope to rein in the MIC.
Just thinking...
-Hoot
Obviously you weren't thinking. Government contractors would also include all those companies working on building and roads for the government. Those same companies that give hundreds and thousands of dollars in kickbacks contributions to the politicians that award those contracts.

33. risk in the sense of variance of profit
let's say i'm contemplating opening a new branch. i might hire and incur other expenses but i might generate plenty of revenue. i'm not completely convinced i'll make a profit, but i'll surely get more market share.
at a 10% tax rate, a $1,000,000 pre-tax profit nets me a $900,000 gain, but a $1,000,000 pre-tax loss costs me $900,000 (i save $100,000 in taxes by writing off the loss).
at a 90% tax rate, the same scenario nets me only $100,000 gain or $100,000 loss. so my the bottom line consequence of my business decisions becomes much more predicatable at a higher tax rate. i.e., variance is low, risk is low.
so in that case, at a 90% tax rate, i can try it. if it fails, it doesn't cost me much, and i can get out for little net loss. if it succeeds, true, it doesn't net me much gain either, but it does build market share which in turn can lead to longer-term advantages as well. moreover, i can keep it going long-term and gain big time if tax rates ever do fall back down.

This may sound stupid, but I have a technical question.
If a male (knowingly, obviously) fools around with a pre-operative transwoman, does that qualify as a heterosexual experience, a homosexual one, or is there a third category?

The nerve of my mom. She printed a calendar full of bible scriptures to give through me and wants me to "go back to the bible and go back to god".

I can't for the life of me figure out how 'conservatives' have convinced working people
to continue to vote against their own interests year after year. Instead of seeing benefits union members may get as something every working person in this country deserves, they would rather take it away from people because 'I don't have it, why should they'.
Instead of being angry at the Wall Street banks who gambled and lost their 401k and pension (if they even had one) money and then bailed out with our tax money, the conservatives have convinced them that their neighbors and kid's teachers are the ones who are stealing all the money.
How the hell? Honestly I don't get it.

Hundreds rally to 'Save American Dream'
Video at link below:
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - Hundreds rallied on the steps of the State House in Providence Saturday as they stood behind their fellow protestors from Wisconsin.
The Rhode Island Teacher's Union marched to show support for their Wisconsin colleagues vying to keep their collective bargaining rights and to preserve the American dream.
"We're not gonna let them take away collective bargaining from us...it is time for every worker and every person in America to stand up and fight corporate greed," urged one protestor Saturday.
The rally was part of a national effort organized by MoveOn.org which spanned across all 50 state capitals.
Mixed in among the crowds were Providence teachers who protested the recent firing of some 2,000 teachers in the district.
http://www.wpri.com/dpp/news/local_news/hundreds-rally-...
You would think that the 2K affected teachers would have showed up for the protest. Then the headline would have read "Thousands rally to Save American Dream."

48. The Oscars does not create homelessness. The film industry = UNION JOBS
We in L.A. have a huge homeless population every day, not just Oscar night. The Academy Awards is a great booster for one of the last American industries that makes a product people buy world wide, and one that pays its people well.
You might think of the stars attending the awards but believe me upstairs there are the craftspeople behind the scenes who have worked hard at their craft to be an Academy member, who are NOT rich or famous. Case in point: my husband and I will be up in the cheap seats tomorrow!
Also many people in the film industry are huge supporters of liberal causes and Democrats. So I don't really like this implication of "Oscars are bad because there are poor and homeless people."

Sorry. Doesn't make sense, DUmb shit. Since um....even with a window in the stomach, you STILL couldn't see out for light. Seems like a fairly stupid thing for me to bitch about, I know, but in the thick of the crap us Wisconsinites are in, I'm sick of DUmbasses. For Christ's sake. They may as well stick the Gitmo detainees in the Capitol building, and lock the doors.

Tenn. bill would make following Shariah a felony
So this is how it's going to be. Illegal to be a Muslim. Who's next?
"Tennessee is considering making it a felony to follow some versions of the Islamic code known as Shariah, the most severe measure yet put forth by a national movement whose members believe extremist Muslims want Shariah to supersede the Constitution."

Senate Bill 1028, which is co-sponsored by state Sen. Jim Tracy, R-Shelbyville, is designed to protect Tennesseans, "including those who engage in the peaceful religious worship of Islam" from radicals, according to Ketron.
He singled out Carlos Bledsoe of Memphis, who said he was following "jihad" when he killed a serviceman at an Arkansas Army recruiting station.
Ketron stated that the bill is modeled after the federal Material Support law, which has been upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court as constitutional. It has three key provisions:
•It gives the attorney general authority to "designate" a "Sharia(h) organization" as one intent on engaging in Shariah jihad through violence or criminal activity
•It defines material support as the flow of financial or material support or advice for terrorism and states that those who back a terrorist organization can be prosecuted, fined or imprisoned for 15 years.
•It also provides for civil action against terrorists if a person is injured or suffers property or financial damage in an act of terrorism
The Tennessean (http://www.dnj.com/article/20110224/NEWS01/102240322/STATE-LEGISLATURE-Ketron-defends-bill-vs-Shariah)
SB 1028 (http://www.capitol.tn.gov/Bills/107/Bill/SB1028.pdf)
Beyond scoring political points, I honestly doubt walldude really cares what happens to Muslims in America (and the rest of the world as well).

Where's the law to ship every one of these sum bitches who want Sharia" back to the hell hole they came from? That's the bill I wanna see!
What the **** is wrong with these people? They're country is bein' invaded by a culture that would cut off their heads, and they don't see it!
-
I didn't know about this until I heard it on the radio this morning, but Senator Ketron is from Murfreesboro where a group is building a
mosque community center. Back in January, they buried a dead body on the property without a death certificate or approval from the state, and without following any state codes for burial (you don't put a dead body in the middle of the water table) so they could consecrate their mosque community center as a holy site.
I've barely been able to find any mention of it in the local media outside of a couple of mentions in passing, as if burying a dead body on your property was something that happened every day.

Well, it used to be a fairly common practice. There are all kinds of family burial plots dotted across Kansas. Of course it hasn't been practiced since somewhere around 1950. Someone found out the water next door started tastin' funny! Imagine that?

Why hasn't Bradley Manning been released?
1)The leaking was months ago. Why are we still focused on something that happened in 2010? Why are DUmmies still focused on the 2000 and 2004 elections?
2)His detainment is too divisive. Isn't social cohesion more important than anything? STFU
3)It's just a matter of time before Congress passes retroactive legislation that makes it ok to leak State Department documents. Only if Dems can get majorities again, then maybe.
4)Doesn't this story distract the country from focusing on more important issues like disbanding unions? Unions are a minority and have outlived their usefulness.

If this helps one DU'er, or non-DU'er, it's worth posting.
Last night I was cleaning my ears with Q-tips and afterwards I noticed that one of the cotton ends on the stick was missing.
Did it come that way....or was the other cotton end in my ear?
I panicked, but managed to calm myself. I didn't FEEL anything...and I was hearing OK...
I rarely go to the doctor, one reason is I have an individual insurance plan with a humongous deductible.
But I decided that this morning I'd call my family doctor and go. Either that or worry worry worry.
I went to the doctor and he looked in my ear and didn't see anything. Thank goodness!
Anyway, my fellow DU'ers, my purpose in posting this is to warn you: Don't clean out your ears with Q-tips.
(I've always been told that and from now on, I won't.)
If you do clean out your ears with Q-tips, make sure the thing has both cotton ends on it before sticking it in your ear.
He looked through the ear and saw light on the other side.

The hell? If the cotton ISN'T on the tip, you'll know as soon as you touch your ear with it. These people are as dumb as a rock.

17. The governments job is to levy (legally raise) taxes (revenues) to pay our debts.
Edited on Thu Jul-14-11 04:36 PM by earcandle
Revenue is like sales in business. You have to raise revenue to pay cost of goods and overhead.
The governments job is to levy taxes (revenues) to pay our debts.
I don't understand why they are not simply raising the taxes.
This is a numbing argument. I took government accounting.. our leaders are charged with levying taxes to pay our debts. If they have no courage to do it, then they need to be impeached. If they refuse to do it, they are treasonous and need to be not only recalled, they need to go to jail.
People, stop being duped. Tax raising is required. The share of taxes you will pay is relative too the profit you make. If there are no profits, you pay no taxes.
Spending is legally mandated to provide services to the American people with the money we (individuals and businesses) pay for taxes, licenses, and fees. Some spending is allowed because of grants and contributions made by organizations that want something done for a restricted reason.
The costs to run a country is based on the ability to raise revenues.
If the tax cuts are returned to our coffers, and the loopholes are closed, then the debt can be paid in one no time.
NOT to raise taxes is stupid. Are we stupid?
And cuts are NOT a raise in taxes.
This would be putting back into the coffers what has been missing for the last ten years.
If we remove cuts and loopholes and raise taxes fairly, we will all be prosperous.
I am tired of government by belief. Think and act for a change, or leave. Do your job.

16. More will die in the week after SS checks do not go out.
No prescription renewals of life preserving meds.
No groceries.
Less food distributed at the food bank as more people show up. (Food banks hand out very little protein other than dried beans.)
No transportation.
Seniors will do things to save/acquire money that endanger their health, such as not using electricity in spite of the hottest months of year coming up.
Not just people, but pets as well.
No SS check no pet food. (I walked three hours yesterday collecting $4 in recyclables. I spent today in bed shaking with spasms due to aggravation of the spinal cord damage that has me on disability, but that will buy 8 cans of food for my cats.)
Stress from landlords demanding rent and creditors demanding payments will probably claim some of those lives.

18 Countries Where Women Have It Way Better Than In America
(A 2010 article but still applicable IMO.)
"Ninety years since the nineteenth amendment and 50 years since the civil rights era, American women still lag behind men in several key metrics.
What's worse, America's gender gap is among the largest in the developed world, according to a report from the World Economic Forum.
The report compares female-to-male professional achievements, educational attainment, health and political empowerment. America scores lowest on politics, namely the number of women in office."

That's the first post I've ever seen from Laydeebug. Has any of her other posts ever been brought over? She seems to be another one trying to prove she's the stupidest person on the internet.
I just thought of something...Do you win some sort of prize if you get crowned the stupidest person on the internet? If not, why are so many DUers working so hard to claim the title?
Never heard of her. Moonbats are just like moles, in that they're afraid to show up in GD until they're over the 1000 mark. They accumulate stats with "K&R" and "LOL" posts in all the DUmp's trash forums, especially the Lounge, and then show up in GD with post counts that give them some DUmp street cred.
When you see how DUmb so many DUmmies are, it gives you a new appreciation of the truly bottomless stupidity of poor, stupid Beth. It is hard to imagine the depth and consistency of pure ignorance it would take to displace her as the stupidest person on all the internets.
It sort of reminds me of professional golfers. The first PGA tournament I ever attended was way back in the 70s. Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus were both playing, and they had galleries like Tiger Woods today. So I started following some guys I'd never heard of. Every one of them hit the ball like nothing I could have ever imagined. I was awestruck. One rocket shot after another, huge drives, draws and fades into the pins like dreams. Amazing skill. Then it struck me that these guys were the losers who probably wouldn't make the cut. They couldn't compete with Nicklaus on their best day. That's how the vast majority of DUmmies compare to EFerrari in stupidity. They're incredible idiots, but she's the Tiger Woods (in his bimbo, HGH prime) of DUmbness. One DUmmy who comes close is Pedro Picasso, but he's like Lee Trevino to Beth's Jack Nicklaus.

I visited Free Republic for the first time today. OMG!
There really is a parallel universe. The ignorance, anger and deep-rooted hatred there seem like some kind of demented script that could have been written by Rod Serling or Stephen King.
I’ve often seen anger and occasionally seen hatred here on DU, but nothing to match the soul-searing hell of freeperville. The “thoughts†and beliefs these people hold makes one wonder how they make it through any given day. And, IMO, it seems impossible to live with the amount of bile they have stored up within themselves.
I’ve often gotten shots taken at my Ops here on DU, but nothing compared to what I just saw. Free Republic is a very ugly place. And the ideas expressed there are almost beyond my comprehension. I really don’t know how any normal human being can live being filled with that much rage.

2. the idea is that by raising taxes you diminish the economic activity since the
amount of the tax is taken out of the economic stream.
The economic theory of the multiplier effect is each dollar spent multiplies as it travels through the revenue streams of the private sector causing more economic activity and therefor, theoretically, increases the taxable events and so tax revenues are increased.

If you'd tax me more, I'd hire more people - as a small business owner
(and the same would apply to any major corporation) if my taxes were raised by a sufficient amount, then I may as well hire more people to do more of the stuff around the office.
If my taxes were raised $30,000 a year (not very likely in my income bracket, but just for an example) then I won't have the money in my pocket. I may as well make my life easier (and save some money) by hiring someone for that money and have them do more work that I could make money off off. Additionally, since the $30K is now deductible from my income, I may actually wind up paying less in taxes since they're based on the profit the business earns. And if all the wealthy are hiring, more people have more money to buy more of whatever product I make.
It's the simple reason that employment goes up in higher tax periods and drops every time we give the "job creators" tax cuts. Even my grandmother gets this concept, and she worked at home her whole life. But somehow these brilliant economists consistently can't get their heads around it.

US borrowing tops 100% of GDP: Treasury
US debt shot up $238 billion to reach 100 percent of gross domestic project after the government's debt ceiling was lifted, Treasury figures showed on Wednesday.
Treasury borrowing jumped on Tuesday, the data showed, immediately after President Barack Obama signed into law an increase in the debt ceiling as the country's spending commitments reached a breaking point and it threatened to default on its debt.
The new borrowing took total public debt to $14.58 trillion, over end-2010 GDP of $14.53 trillion, and putting it in a league with highly indebted countries like Italy and Belgium.
Public debt subject to the official debt limit -- a slightly tighter definition -- was $14.53 trillion as of the end of Tuesday, rising from the previous official cap of $14.29 trillion a day earlier.

So he sits in jogging pants all day on the internet (if you read this Doug; I was referring to someone else!

It failed. He hasn't had another decent offer in probably 6 months, but doesn't seem to care. Internet works. Money is rolling in, albeit less, and he can eat and drink to his heart's desire.

I'd guess this is probably within reasonable payload limits for the types of RC planes he had.
5lbs of C-4 wouldn't do that much damage to a building and it's doubtful that it would have killed anyone unless they were pretty close to the blast.

IMO, 5 lbs. of C-4 wouldn't do catastrophic damage to the whole building. Maybe to the room where they hit, but not much to the entire building--or to a wing (or a ring) of the building.

And when push comes to shove, no friends, either.

Hey gopers, Herman Cain was chairman of the Kansas City Fed.
I love telling them that.
I bring it up here every time his name crops up n case they are reading.
He supported TARP and is against an audit of the Fed.

Herman Cain's "Stage four" colon cancer should disqualify him
Five-year survival rate: 8 %.
http://www.webmd.com/colorectal-cancer/guide/treatment-stage?page=2
Is it true that he was diagnosed Stage IV? Have his medical records made public?
I'm reminded of the Paul Tsongas fiasco, in which a candidate denied his own mortality and put his country at risk by running while suffering from a fatal illness.
Liberals support Obamacare, thinks cancer patients should hurry up and die. (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x1998587)

14. That is the thing about choice
I don't have to like theirs, they don't have to like mine.
We just have to respect that each of us has a right to our OWN choice and leave it at that.
And let us be honest here...seriously, for every Duggar child, there are multitudes of abortions done that can offset the balance of damage to the earth.
I personally would rather have 20 abortions than 20 kids.
But, that is MY choice.
Let's just keep our eye on the prize. Preserve choice for ALL!

52. Well, the locals seem to have decided how they will deal with constitutionally-protected
freedoms which should not be surprising considering that a sitting president has said the Constitution is just a piece of paper. The picture and video depict actions symbolically pissing on that piece of paper.

You said it, and I caught it, DUmmie. Now there's no rerasing it, or dumping it down a $kimmer hole.
Just wanted to have some DUche admittance on record. ;)

9. Well, I suppose you'd have to take the marginal rate to 99% to get even close
But it was the marginal rate I was talking about. I don't care if its a man's first earned dollar or his last, I do think his society had a right to more of the results of his labor than he is.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x2361683
WTF? This idiot is advocating a 50% tax on every dollar of earned income?

5. Personally...
I'm celebrating being a dour buzzkill who tries to suck the joy out of any occasion I can find, by criticizing the occasion and our society, and then issuing an overly pious apology on everyone's behalf to the rest of the world, who will neither hear it nor care.
Or I could just go get some leftovers. Gravy, yum!

12. heart defect
if i had been aborted because i had a heart defect, i would not be 35, married with a beautiful one month old daugter. I never had costly heart surgery. I am pro-choice but anyone in such a situation should give it a lot of thought. As for the article, it's a terible tragedy.

13. "and the stupid think he's smart..."
On This Week with Christiane Amanpour, New York Times columnist
Paul Krugman gave his two cents about why Republican support is
beginning to coalesce around Newt Gingrich, with a snarky barb
thrown in for good measure.
“It was his time, the Republican base doesn’t want Romney and they keep looking for an
alternative, and Newt — although somebody said ‘he’s a stupid man’s idea of what a smart
person sounds like,’ but he is more plausible than the other guys they’ve been pushing up.â€
http://www.mediaite.com/tv/paul-krugman-newt-gingrich-i...
In truth Krugman could have as easily been describing DUmmies and Obama
‘he’s a stupid man’s idea of what a smart;
person sounds like,’

1. Let me explain it, Mittens...
...there is nothing wrong or immoral with being gay and there is nothing wrong or immoral with serving one's country. In fact, service to one's country, no matter what one's persuasion may be, is praise worthy.
However: There is quite a bit wrong and illegal with the violation of the First Amendment clause requiring separation of church and state.
Duh....

Wrong, dip shit. On both counts. Sorry to be the guy that's politically incorrect, but it's true.

4. This information needs to be a priority.
I am so sick of misrepresentation ....I myself will tell all I know.

So what will you guys do with those precious few seconds of your life? Actually listen?
I personally plan on singing the "ABC" to myself, and then walking away rapidly. That is, if I ever meet this primitive. (Knock on wood)
