Hunger v. Money. Apparently people like money...who knew? :p

I'd definitely do both though. Eat a ton on Thursday, wrap up in time and go about my normal business and then on Friday buy cheap stuff that I was looking for anyway :cheer:

Except that companies like Walmart, Target, etc. Force their employees to work after 4PM on Thanksgiving, because they’ve decided that Black Friday starts then.

United Arab Emirates and women's rights :sick:

 

Nowadays women aren't even allowed anymore to kill their boyfriend, cut said boyfriend into pieces, cook the pieces and serve it with some rice as a traditional dish for Pakistani workers. What's next, not allowing them to buy vegetables?

I honestly don’t know what that man thinks he was doing. I’m honestly more sad for the Sentinelese who will have more unwanted attention now. They’re happy, leave them alone. Plus they’re one of the last completely uncontacted tribes in the world. Interesting to think that as I type this on a computer, they’re just surviving using wooden tools and an unknown language.

Well, they are not completely uncontacted by any stretch. They even received some aid from helicopters or something I believe, but indeed, they remain to be there without interaction with the outside World.

If I'm not mistaken, they once accepted a 'gift' from some NatGeo people in the 70's, who approached them with the utmost care, bit by bit. After the 2004 tsunami a helicopter went and checked on them and they greeted it with a rain of arrows :p 

 

They might not be literally 100% uncontacted, they definitely didn't have any recorded sensible contact (as in, actually communicating back and forth).

For now. There's less and less of them and literally thousands of years of incest isn't gonna increase their survival chances..

    • Edward Prentice   2/20 hits, 41:30 minutes behind. Picked up the wrong sport, perhaps.  
    • Meant to ask this during the Olympics, but how many of you non-USA peeps are familiar with this song?  In case you don't know, this was written for the LA84 games by John Williams, renowned film score composer (Star Wars, Superman, Jurassic Park, etc.).  NBC now uses this all the time in their Olympic promos, intros, etc.   I had a friend who moved from the US to England, and when the Olympics came on, he commented that he missed this song.  So, perhaps this song is unknown to non-USers...but I have a sneaky suspicion that you Olympics nerds might have heard it.         Another one NBC uses (though I just learned myself that this was originally by French-American Leo Arnaud, called Bugler's Dream, dating back to the 1964 Tokyo games...apparently in 1996, John Williams combined it with Olympic Fanfare):      The combined version:   Edit: I'm hoping to make it to an athletics session at LA28 so I can be in the stadium where he directed the orchestra to perform this song during the Opening Ceremony.  Williams is still alive, and at 94, I hope he can hang in there two more years to see the Olympics return to LA and receive some honor.  He also composed music for Atlanta '96, and the opening theme of Summon the Heroes also gets used by NBC a lot:
