Problem is when you start demanding or announcing that it doesn't exist at all and claiming others are wrong for pointing out it's existence
I don't believe "luck" exists, I do believe in statistics that result in happenstance.
That's the definition of luck.

luck
lək/
noun
1.
success or failure apparently brought by chance rather than through one's own actions.

Well, I believe in the soul, the cock, the pussy, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter.

Have you guys even kept up with the fuckery of the dumpster protectors?

Serious :derp: all around but the 2nd party idiot didnt deserve to die.

Also, FYI, just because you are filming something, that wont protect you from the actions of :wat:

It began, police say, as a dispute among neighbors in Abilene, Tex. Two families argued about where to dump trash in an adjacent alleyway. Insults escalated to threats, and a father and son, both armed, allegedly shot and killed a 37-year-old man who lived next door in an encounter captured on camera.

Police have arrested the alleged shooters, 67-year-old John Miller and 31-year-old Michael Miller, who have been charged with murder in the death of Aaron Howard.
I will go update the meme thread now.

Yeah, despite the fact that the video wasn't graphic or anything... still pretty dark and disturbing. Sure, the guy was a moron and walked into it, but that doesn't make it an easy pill to swallow.
