    I've always been a firm believer in broad generalizations.

    Because most of time I've found that when guys talk about broads they generally agree.

    They also make vague statements because like they say no two broads are alike. If they were we could have figured women out long ago. LOL

    Thanks ind06

    Comments by Uncle Dave are always a knee-slapper. Always.

      Articles written at satirical websites rarely have names attached to them. Most of these sites have a small group of writers, some are just one person.

      For the record, I have links to 37 satirical news web sites that update their entries with widely varying regularity. The Onion and CapNews have new articles up daily. This site, Confusion Road, usually puts up a new story once every few months!

      Sadly, my list of now defunct satire sites is almost as long. Though I've lost the link, the best sign off headline was "Satire Writer Gets Life", which may indicate the kind of hours these guys are putting in.

      I'm glad you like them. I enjoy posting them for you. :)

        "Don't listen to that Watson guy," said Dr. Robert J. Bernstein, president of the Southern California Skeptical Society. "He's an atheist. You can't believe a single thing he says." Hysterical!

        I think it far too general, to say that broad-generalizations are usually wrong, but I get confused, very easily.

        OK, lay off of Obama! I came here to escape the political scene!

          Before I even read the other comments, excellent find ind06. When I read the headline it sounded like something from the onion. bookmarked for later.

          "Watch out for that slippery slope argument: it's a gateway fallacy," Watson warns. "If you start falling for that one, next thing you know, you'll fall for another logical fallacy, and then another. You'll become completely gullible, and sooner or later you'll be ripped off by con artists, lose everything you own, and you'll be left to live a life of poverty and misery."

          Yup! Ya gotta watch out for that slippery slope. :0)
