mircea_popescu: jurov you remember, the twinklevii, those people who kept buying btc back when it was 10. lots of it.
mircea_popescu: sure.
mircea_popescu: the point here isn't that we believe what they say. the point here is that what they say is less nutty than it was afore.

mircea_popescu: "or when you are of age, whichever comes first."
mircea_popescu: aw fuck.
mircea_popescu: or when you grow up, whichever comes first.
mircea_popescu: there isn't, nor are there "standard things". stop stereotyping, it's the mental process of the very stupid.
mircea_popescu: a very smart judge once said, in response to the gov't claim that "this is a standard deal" that there is no such thing as a "standard" deal.
mircea_popescu: he didn't make a claim.
mircea_popescu: but at any rate : if you ask some guy how did he find the steak and he says "stringy", you have no space to ask for proof of claim.
mircea_popescu: that high horse is a) legitimately high ; b) much higher in fact than your myopia allows you to see.
mircea_popescu: you're confused as to what a claim is truffles.
mircea_popescu: once your brains no longer has a reference language it will keep all, or at least enough functional constructs to be able to rapidly recover.
mircea_popescu: as long as your brains thinks there's a correct language to have and extras as modules to it, it keeps forgetting them

mircea_popescu: your delusions of gramar are a constant source of amusement, by all means, insist.
mircea_popescu: yes.
mircea_popescu: there are much better sources for your particular ideology, such as for instance you know, the people making it.
mircea_popescu: you need dialectics to understand anything, or to form an opinion at all. absent the faculty of comparison, you're not forming an opinion, you're merely parroting an ideology.
mircea_popescu: so you'd think.
mircea_popescu: so there you go.
mircea_popescu: in short, you're not nearly enough of a whore to discuss mating habits.
mircea_popescu: well, you speak one language, i speak a dozen. you've lived in one country, i've lived in lots. you're part of one culture, which is remarkable exactly for it's very stylisized relation to reality. i'm part of at least half a dozen different cultural spaces.
mircea_popescu: yes.
mircea_popescu: well yes. i'm not interested in a discussion of "time", as you're not qualified to carry it.
mircea_popescu: the male's pretty immune, biologically. you can father just fine aged 75
mircea_popescu: makes no difference. the body works a certain way, and that way is based on function.
mircea_popescu: times'd be well advised to adapt to it, cause it ain't happening the other way around.
mircea_popescu: use it or lose it. it has nothing to do with "times", biology is biology.
mircea_popescu: yea.
mircea_popescu: nah. the way the body works, a woman that is going to have children should deliver her first before 18.

mircea_popescu: romanian women still marry ~16 if they feel like it.
mircea_popescu: no reading comprehension anymore ?
mircea_popescu: in general women sew their own stuff, starting about 12ish till they got married. if they were really hot they married by 15 or so, in which case they didn't have the time or the skill to do it. if they were poor they'd have actual labour cut into that "leisure" so equally they had no time.
mircea_popescu: most of the women never wore those. that's like sunday garb, it varies a lot by locale and in general only a rich girl could afford a really elaborate version.
mircea_popescu: you're not a woman till you've showered on the lawn.
mircea_popescu: there, morning birdbath.
