The Pirate Party (Icelandic: Píratar) is a political party in Iceland. The party was cofounded on November 24, 2012 by Birgitta Jónsdóttir (previously a member of The Movement), and several prominent Internet activists, including Smári McCarthy.

They successfully applied for the ballot list letter Þ in order to run in the 2013 Icelandic parliamentary election. This marks their first electoral participation as well as the first party to request the letter Þ. The party managed to win three seats in the 2013 election and became the first pirate party in the world to enter a national parliament.

Not even close I´m afraid. Another continent.

Well I can tell you're using the French Canadian keyboard layout with a skull & crossed swords avatar so I'll venture to guess you're biker living in Montreal.

All right, I´ve analyzed his colloquialism to some degree and think he´s an American living in Canada. Now; where do you think I am? It´s presently minus four degrees centigrade. Cloudy, humidity 94%.

Keep the wasperies for yourself. I'm glad the rest of the world dont use °F or inches/miles etc for that matter...

Canadians use both Celsius and Fahrenheit, it's the commie French bastards that tend towards Système International units of measure.

I´m betting that the Hippie is in Canada since he uses celsius.

Great point.  If he's on the equator or the South Pole, we have a giant problem.....

Where do you live?

Yes, you are.

This is a phenomena called a Cold Front.

should we raise taxes already?

It is currently raining and 5C outside ATM. The temperature is expected to drop 15 degrees Celsius over the next 12 -18 hours.

I MUST BE FREAKIN INSANE TO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS ANYTHING BUT NORMAL...

Scientists: Creativity Part Of ‘Mental Illness’

Nonono, I´m not going to post any freakin text about that one.

“a pathological obsession for biologically pure and healthy nutrition.”

“Orthorexia nervosa is a label designated to those who are concerned about eating healthy. Characterized by disordered eating fueled by a desire for “clean” or “healthy” foods, those diagnosed with the condition are overly pre-occupied with the nutritional makeup of what they eat”.

I can see how it could be seen as a mental disorder if all the person is eating is a multi-vitamin and 20 carrot smoothies a day.. But I can also see how people with legitimate, healthy diets like vegans or vegetarians could be tarred with the same brush.

Ah, Orthorexia nervosa. 

OFFICIALS Declare ‘Eating Healthy’ A Mental Disorder

It´s so ####### dumb that I can´t even bring myself to posting the text. You´ll have to search for it if interested.

I read somewhere that experts have decided that people that are afraid of being unhealthy and therefore detest fast food and such and only eat health foods are mentally ill. it´s --exia something. Couldn´t copy paste it so forgot where it was.

I'm not the one who brought the sun (and it's electromagnetic relationship with the planet and it's inhabitants) into this.

You did.
