Hey reddit, I just started driving a manual again after 5 years of auto. Any tips/tricks?
I got a manual license 5 years ago, and hadn't driven one since. Two weeks ago, a family friend moved overseas and left me an early 2000s manual Subaru Impreza. I've practiced enough to be able to get around fine (feels normal again now), but there's probably some good things to learn from more experienced redditors. ...

Gf got stache, I asked to fix. Am I the jerk?
Hello RA, I was hoping you guys could chip in 2 cents about something that I went through recently. The gf and I have been together for about two months now.

Catching up on my House M.D. backlog, I came across the episode with the psycho chick. And when they described her symptoms, I realized that they fit me perfectly. I thought I was just a bad person till now. Guess I can now start blaming a medical condition for my being an asshole.

looking for Mercurial hosting with source browsing
I find myself desirous of something github-like for Mercurial. Yes, I've looked at BitBucket, but it lacks one of the most important features (for me) for such a site: the ability to browse source code files rather than just download or clone them. Any suggestions?
Why does it say forbidden when I try to go to /r/mysticism?

Case study in Zionist manipulation of Western media: did UN Chief Ban-ki-moon "praise" Israel's response to Goldstone?
Check this out. My favorite is the NY times one -- UN Chief Praises Israel Probe of Its Gaza Actions. The Times has the UN Chief saying "'Israel followed up on every allegation.''

Property is physical objects. It is not the form of physical objects, as this would conflict with the former.
That is to say, I own my hard drive, and if I manipulate the bits on the drive so that I can play Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance", I am exercising my ownership over my hard drive. To prevent me from organizing the form of my hard drive the way I please is to take away my ownership in my hard drive. As for the inevitable "Bu...

I've said it before and I'll say it again: why are we so unconcerned about the interests of those with power over something that people get so much more of their information from than from even fucking libraries--that being the media.
Simple concept: there is no law preventing a news organization from lying to you, even in the news [citation1]. Furthermore, as businesses (notice no news organization is not for profit), their interests are in making money (whether through lies or truth, whatever suits their profits best), and not to tell you the tru...

I'm addicted to RPG podcasts. Any suggestions on good ones?
The obsession began with the Penny Arcade D&D podcasts.. they did two sets, the second set having Wil Wheaton along, and I loved them utterly.

I come here with a personal question, but I would love to perhaps spark a bigger discussion about the role of perfumes in our current culture. I love perfume, candles, scented lotions, drawer papers.
