If any religion is good for you, you don't need to convert people. What other groups need initiation process , hmm

Rich ethnically-based religions do not seek converts. So Jews discourage conversion to Judaism, and Parsis prohibit it entirely.

I started my own cult in middle school, you all want to join?

What does it cost and what do we get?

10% of income for unlimited virgins in heaven?

unlimited virgins in heaven

Careful what you wish for.

It would be a bunch of fat pasty video game players who died of heart attacks at 35.

I have seen this myself in the Netherlands.

Well, good for them! I've always aimed for the hole or the cake. If the location of the fly is what I've always should have been pointing at, I appreciate knowing now. Somebody should have come up with a target ages ago, with a high score scoreboard. Men are competitive after all.

This reassures the tattooed that they are, indeed, living an unhealthy, self destructive lifestyle and that they need to increase their drug and sex pig behaviors if they become too well.

Same here. Good to know the aim place is the location of the fly. Good suggestion with the scoreboard. 😂

Shows you the damage soy does. Tattoo should have been a naked lady with a ginormous bush.

Bankruptcy Bimbo, the gal you never want to get involved with no matter how tight the putang.

At that time a simple math calculator was considered a a computer, The first lcd calculators were considered advanced high tech. People used to reserve a spot at university science labs to crunch numbers that we now use the most basic calculators for. When the fist lcd calculator was made it was big deal. Every much as a big deal as Windows 95.

As I recall, it took less than a year for the first LCD calculator to come out, before they were being sold for $10 at Radio Shack. They got cheap quick.

I remember my sister had a calculator that cost her $300 that use a red LCD readout, but it was a scientific calculator. That was like 1980. By 1985, every kid could own a calculator, although few did. I remember calculator watches in the 1980s. I purchased a calculator for around $100 which was a scientific calculator in 1989. It had all the constants programmed into it, and was able to do some simple calculations of common problems.

Those early calculators tended to break somehow, so my friend and I used to play this little trick on other students:

- ask to borrow a calculator (they were all the same model at the time)
- secretly swap it for a broken one we had
- before "returning" it, we would put it on the floor and stomp it

The owner would be horrified, then we would hand back their true calculator, unharmed. Kind of a mean trick I guess.

The glowing orange amber digits was the first expensive calculator. The LCD made them cheap. My dad was pissed because he spent over $175 for a cheap Texas Instrument calculator. Then a year later the banks were giving away free LCD calculators to open an account. The Casio Calculator wrist watch blew his mind. .

Well, it was an incredible advancement in technology in just a few years.

The Atari 2600 came out in 1977, and this was Donkey Kong on it:



And this is the Commodore 64, 5 years later:



Technology raced so quickly then. That's what made it interesting.

Too bad. She carried a lot of weight in her movement.
