Socrates Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 iPads and and smartphones have done their fair share of damage, case in point the stupid meme which caused this thread. The Pope should ban teh interwebz. I'm seeing way too much of people posting moronic internet "memes" on the debate table, as if they were real arguments worthy of debate and discussion. Pair a nonsensical caption with a photo or other illustration, post it on the web, and some idiots will treat it as authoritative truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Didacus Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Steets lights are evil! BURN THEM! The Pope should ban teh interwebz. I'm seeing way too much of people posting moronic internet "memes" on the debate table, as if they were real arguments worthy of debate and discussion. Pair a nonsensical caption with a photo or other illustration, post it on the web, and some idiots will treat it as authoritative truth. I've NEVER done that often.

Jl1989 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 It actually makes a lot of sense. Before streetlights, husbands, wives and children came home at night, ate dinner, spent time together and went to bed. With the advent of lit streets, men could hang out at bars, prostitutes could solicit more business and children could stay out longer. Nightclubs, bars, strip clubs and the like would never have existed had streetlights not been invented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was before Vatican 2. Vatican 2 changed all that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
