    Perhaps, we've gotten to a make it or break it point, but then again, maybe it cannot be said for other people.

    Also, I forgot to add a deadline for the Poll...

    This isn't a very useful quote against the OP. Free speech isn't being taken away, hate speech is being taken away.

    Speech is speech. If you censor speech, it is no longer free.

    This isn't a yes or no question.

    I actually thought that when I read it. The question appears to be asking if you hold either position A or B, so no & neutral are both identical answers.

    So, I wasn't the only one who noticed? It was almost 3am when I read it the first time, so I thought I just was tired...

    You mean "I thought I was just drunk..."?

    I believe in something called freedom of speech. Maybe you've heard of it.

    Oh, no, the one time I was drunk, I went straight to bed after returning home.

    "The one time"? Are you sure you aren't drunk right now?

    Yes, I'm never drunk, mostly because the drinks where I go out are ridiculously expensive. And also because we generally leave before any of us get drunk in the first place.

    Oh, no, that'd be even more expensive...well, for my friends, at least, I get to go free in the weekends. It'd take a while to get there, though, and I think the last metros go at 1am. No, we usually go out within walking distance from my house, it's quite convenient, especially as we have only one good bicycle here (I took one to Enschede, but it got stolen, so I took the other one), and my brother goes out quite frequently as well.

    Do you go to the Kuip often? I really like seeing a match there.

    I've been there...4 or 5 times, I think. It's quite nice, amazing atmosphere.

    Really? Just 5 times? You should go more often. The atmosphere is the best in the country.

    I know, I know. I've also been to Sparta and Excelsior once, and even Manchester United. I still want to go to matches of Newcastle United and Arsenal, too, but you really have to plan these things out beforehand.

    My brother goes like every two weeks. I'm going with my friends in a few weeks, too.

    I prefer to just go every once in a while. That keeps it...special.
