That's probably why there's all these heists there.

Internet says ~10mil people have it, and murican population is about 317 mil, according to internet. Dividing gives 31.7, and I forget how to make it into percent because I'm stupid. I think is is 3.17 percent. Still small
10/317 = 0.0315 = 3.2 %

Keep in mind, the majority of Americans get health care through their employer plans, so most people were never going to be enrolled in it anyway.
Can you show me this majority? In numbers? Because living here I don't know too many employers who do that. Then again, I don't know many employers.

I'm talking about Health Insurance plans being offered through an employer. Typically, the Employer pays some % of the cost and the Employee pays the rest. According to wikipedia, "over 95% of employers with at least 50 employees offered health insurance" and "about 59% of employers at small firms (3-199 workers) in the US provide employee health insurance". That accounts for the majority of the working population, since most of those plans already meet the standards put in place by Obamacare and don't require that the individuals sign up through the government systems.

I certainly haven't had to do a thing, since I'm enrolled in a plan like that through my company.

I misread,

"I don't care about the fucking oscars. ALL I CARE ABOUT ARE THE FUCKING FEELS."

as

"I don't care about the fucking oscars. ALL I CARE ABOUT ARE THE FUCKING EELS."

and didn't bat an eyelash. The only reason I even noticed that I didn't get it right the first was that someone commented about how much they hated that particularly usage of 'feels'. I'm believe brain may have gone too far in acclimating to the internet.

Eels are actually rather cute. The way they eat little fishes is delightful~.

I just don't honestly see where evolution contradicts creationism.
Creationism says that Earth was created 6000 years ago. Evolution and paleontology say that this is so damn not the case.
I'm pretty sure there are many Creationists who support the old Earth theory. One who I can recall off the top of my head is William Buckland, then again I'm not sure if he might just be a religious Evolutionist.

Young Earth Creationism is a purely Protestant doctrine, and is a minority (although a large one) in Protestant denominations as well. Old Earth Creationism, Directed Evolution (the major changes in the fossil record are where God poked in to change things, and appear random only because science regards the supernatural as untestable and thus beyond their reach), Fishbowl Evolution (God started the universe running, and just let things go), and How-God-Made-The-Universe-Is-Irrelevantism (God is the root cause of everything, but how He did it and when don't matter, the only question that is worth considering is Why) are more prevalent than the evangelical loudmouths would have you believe. Indeed, many Christian physicists have pointed out that Genesis 1 sounds like a poetic, dumbed down description of the Big Bang and stellar formation.

So what you're saying is basically "You have a really, REALLY shitty job"? :P
"You" in this meaning me.

The weather. Seriously, it's fucking summer, but it feels nothing like summer. It rains pretty much every damn day, sometimes light drizzle, sometimes a fucking storm. And it's stupidly cold for this time of year, like, the temperatures are nearly double of what they are right now.

It's like spring decided to stick around for several more months, heck, the winter was so damn mild you could say this is all just one big fall lasting over half a year now.

And what's even wierder is the rainfall patters, yesterday, and today, there was a brief shower in the city. And it's falling so wierdly that west of my building everything is rather wet, while everything east of it is still very dry.
