How can it be an "impulse buy" if it's not in stock? Doesn't it take planning and thought to get a Wii when they're selling out the day they come into stock? They aren't just sitting on the shelves waiting for customers to think "Wow, that looks fun, I might as well get it since it's just $250!"
People tracking when stores will get shipments and calling to see who has stock are not buying on impulse. People buying them on eBay for twice retail are not buying them on impulse. For something to actually be an "impulse buy" it has readily avaliable. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Fair point. I'll ask another one. What makes these pajamas any more silly than ones that are a visible model of the human body? You know darn well that if these had all the bones in the body labeled or cartoonish human organs (lungs, stomach, intestine, muscles, etc) that geeks would be applauding such a cool product. How is teaching morality any wackier than teaching anatomy? Flag this | Edit this post |

| I never said God was a number, I cited examples to show that, logically, there can be cases where 1 + 1 + 1 = 1 (multiple items added to make a singular group).
As for your ignorance of Christian doctrine, it doesn't matter if you've never heard of it, a triune Godhead is what is taught by the Bible and it is the truth that all followers of Jesus Christ have believed for a couple thousand years. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | A triune Godhead is not three Gods. One God eternally existing as three hypostasis (persons) has been accepted Christian doctrine since well before the Council of Nicea in A.D. 325, when the Nicene Creed was made to articulate what is taught by scripture (and the Apostle's Creed which dates even earlier is trinitarian in nature as well). Trinitarian doctrine does not contradict logic. Three glasses of water in one pitcher is not three pitchers, it is one. Three infinite sets of numbers joined together can make just a single set. (I'm not a mathemetician so I'm not sure how to divide infinity into three, but I can do two. Even and odd integers, each are infinite and non-overlaping but are both part of the infinite set of all whole integers.) Flag this | Edit this post |
