It has upset a number of people who are insisting the new advertisement be taken down. Is this another example of our society becoming too PC? Or should the sign be removed because it incites violence against women?What do you think and why do you feel this way? Here's one link to the story:http://counton2.com/2017/03/24/north-carolina-billboard-sparks-plans-for-protest/ less

The one I was on for six years, Ask.com, they SAID they closed down because of algorithms; wanted to try out new advances. But I have wondered if it was more the ongoing difficulties with moderation?A couple flame warriors and trolls, even one, can certainly compromise an otherwise fine site.
* * *I have a special reason for thinking about Q/A sties; which is, the global potential of the Internet; what if we humankind the little folk eventually just worked out things amongst ourselves here, world peace and the environment, society problems, dysfunctional families and such, bypassing all the machinations of governments, politicians, corporations and the various military industrial complexes? A whole new global version of 'democracy'...
So, why are do so many sites close down, why don’t they just sell out to someone else if they get tired of it all? less

Now I am a fan of science but believe we would be wise to have a healthy scepticism especially as what we know or believe has been proven scientifically is changing all the time.. one minute something is so, then they realise the test was flawed....and now Y is true... One that stands out to me is the one where neuroscience tried to prove that men are less empathic than women... they used dead salmon to determine whether male and female brains reacted differently...

I happen to love it. Just ate stir-fried tofu with teriyaki sauce :)Another example:candy cornNobody "kinda likes" candy corn. You either can't stop snacking on it or you think it's disgusting. Keep in mind this question is meant to be light-hearted. I'm sure there are people with mild opinions of any of these :)

A tragic break from 24/7 sameoldsameoldsameoldsameold. I wonder how many other "tragic breaks" are being planned right now for other places in the world?
