Rap got popular in the 80's, like NWA and Run DMC, right as GenXers were entering their formative years. Really not hard to figure out before posting pointless replies.

This post is inaccurate. Neither WiFi nor GPS use FHSS, nor is Lamarr anything close to singularly credited with FHSS' invention (the earliest patent is credited to Nikola Tesla). This also implies that the Allies used her parent - they did not.

Also Richard Easton is the son of the man who invented GPS and had every right to be skeptical of this claim, and it looks like Internet dipsh*ts have bullied him into deleting his twitter account over this.

Can confirm, the spiders swear like sailors.

The whole trend is nothing new. Millennials and some GenXers were stealing all their slang from American rappers when they were young, too.

You're making highly authoritarian, essentialist arguments

Bruh, spend less time online and/or on campus, you're turning into a moon person.

The fucking irony of someone who was on the receiving end of malpractice from a psychiatrist as a child having to state that, yes, mental health professionals are generally authorities on behavioural and cognitive issues, and yes, adults are generally authorities on most things compared to 15yos. If I can get over it, I'm sure you can - hopefully before you spit out any little undisciplined animals of your own, and make them everyone else's problem.

As you double down while getting downvoted to oblivion as everyone tells you how wrong you are

This is an indicator of a weak mind. Popularity contests have about as much bearing as insults. At no point have any of you explained how or why my reading of the post isn't valid, and I highly suspect the anonymous downvotes and smartarsery are because you know it is and just don't want to think about it, either due to an overarching agenda, or because no one likes feeling like they've been hoodwinked.

Die mad, I guess.

Dude, I'm getting hitler comparisons and called a boot licker for inserting the only hint of healthy skepticism into the whole damned thread. Now I'm getting fuckin' 'u mad's straight outta 2008. Excuses, deflections, personal attacks; as the kids say, cope harder.

(Oh and I'm not discounting the more sensible responses, it's just there's not a lot to say to personal anecdotes about some guy's 12yo son.)

Any credibility you had, you aborted it with that last line. Naaaah, this is totally not just some teenager who resents adults telling them what to do, and this forum is totally not just a bunch of anarkiddies circlejerking, but also we're gunna call you a bootlicker.

Who cares if the quote is total bullshit by someone acting in bad faith if it hones the edge of the ideological axe you have to grind. Shit's just reddit all over again.

I wouldn't mind the star trek stuff if star trek fans could meme. So much painfully shit spam from those boards.
