So we're agreed... the man's an idiot.

So you didn't like #9 - but how about 1 thru 8?

Ok we'll go with those. Any preference on what they're made of?

Best. Invention. Ever.

I think they're great ways to raise a spoilt little brat, but I don't really see the connection between any of those behaviours and drug abuse.

The Best thing to give to your child is your "TIME".

What a load of bull.

"Cheat on your income taxes"??? Excuse me? Is this something a parent would share with their child? I mean...give me a break.

Pop culture quasi-intellectual drivel.

What if it's a soccer ball tethered to a rope?

And I suppose hockey is your idea of a Real Man'sâ„¢ sport.

Word up: only nancy-boys and little girly-men play hockey.

I think it's a pretty accurate list, over all. Many of the points (like the cheating on income taxes) speak to the underlying issues, not the act of cheating on taxes.

RPGs at 10 meters. :chuckle:

Yes exactly.

The best thing about posting things like this is that it really effectively shows right away who is and who isn't intellectually honest.

It doesn't take a rocket surgion to realize that the author wasn't aiming for precision in his list but instead was communicating generalities and using terms like Schizophrenia in the sense in which it is commonly understood not in the clinical, technically medical sense. And the use of sarcasm, as in the case with the income tax comment, appears to have flown right over a couple of heads as well.

Nah, I'll go easy on him and give him the advantage.

Even I played hockey, and I'm a pansy little wuss girl!

You'd love it over here. The entire country is devoted to Rugby in one form or another.

American football? Pfft. Real men don't wear padding.
