because of the way they act/treat others~EVERYBODY AND CONSTANTLY--talking down to everyone about every single subject under the sun just about after decades that someone should give them a book on narcissism for the holidays? Or just send them a book called "Trapped In The Mirror" so that they could FINALLY see themselves as other's see them?
I mean, I TRUELY mean that they've become soo sooooooo very self-important, self-absorbed over the yrs. that it is greatly obnoxious how they respond to other people. They do not "relate" --just seem to know how to cut people down.
I'm not sure that they each are AWARE of how it makes so many people feel [hear common complaints for large variety of relatives all the time, inc. myself feeling the cut downs from them].
I mean, come on--just because someone has a doctorate [both do] doesn't give them the right to constantly treat people as if they are intellectually inferior. Their specialty is mathematics but both seem to believe that they are

Ok, well I have no idea if this is even the right category to put it in... Anyway, how can someone have a definite answer, and/or opinion on a situation/question when both sides have their equal "supporting-factor" (i'm pretty sure theres a word for it.. if you know it, tell me plz!! :P) to support their side of belief. For example, starting off small, if someone called you ignorant, can't you say their innoicent? Moving on to bigger issues like abortion, both sides have great arguments, but I just don't see how people can "choose" a side when both sides' argument are equally good. And yes, I know I'm being hypocritial by not seeing how other people have the rights to belief whatever they want. But can a person be truly without bias? And what do you think a person like that will be treated in our society today?

Its hard for Americans, who only see themselves and have no empathy, to understand what life was like for the Russian and Chinese peasantry before the Communist revolutions in their two countries. For countless centuries they lived the most primitive poverty-stricken hopeless existence; nameless faces powerless.

After just fifty years of Communism Russians had moved to be the second world's superpower, educated all their people had health-care etc for all. A fantastic transformation..

In China the same thing. After just 50 years they are set to overwhelm even America as the preeminent power on Earth.

It must be said that in both cases millions (the "millions that Stalin and Mao murdered') died from famine as a result of a ill-advised attempts to transform their agricultural systems overnight when the basic logistical needs were not in place. Nothing compared to the billions who died from neglect and wars by their respective kings and emperors over the centuries.

Don't you hate it when white women who date black men try to act as stereotypically black as possible... and they're like basically shouting 'OMG I LOVE BLACK PEOPLE LOVE ME AND ACCEPT ME BECAUSE I LOVE BLACK PEOPLE! AND MY BOYFRIEND IS BLACK TOO!!!" I mean nothing wrong with interracial dating, I'm white, boyfriend's black, doesn't mean I have to basically SCREAM it to the entire world. Just be your friggin self.

I know "I" in German is "ich", in French is "Je", in Spanish is "Yo". But I don't know "Eo" belong to which language. Who can tell me?

If you don't know what am I talking about, please read this first:

'Ich.' Not a masterpiece of reassurance, is it? 'I' sounds nobly erect. 'Je" has a certain strength and intimacy. 'Eo' is okay. 'Yo' I can really relate to.....(quote from "Time's Arrow)

He called it incidental contact. Another case of the players having more class than the fans.

Just curious, but do you ever feel uncomfortable going out with your mate? Do you get stares or strange looks? I've gotten stares and smiles from all races but sometimes it feels very uncomfortable. I get scared sometimes that we'll get attacked by some fanatic racial purist...lol I know! paranoid! But does anyone know what I'm talking about? Relate?
Thanks!

Pray don't find fault with the man who limps
Or stumbles along the road,
Unless you have worn the shoes that he wears,
Or struggled beneath his load.
There may be tacks in the shoes that hurt,
Though hidden away from view;
Or burdens he bears placed on your back
Might cause you to stumble too.
Don't sneer at the man who's down today
Unless you have felt the blow
That cause his fall, or felt the shame
That only the fallen know.
You may be strong but yet the blow
That was his, if dealt to you
In the selfsame way, or at the selfsame time,
Might cause you to stagger, too.
Don't be too harsh with the man who sins,
Or pelt him with words or stones,
Unless you are sure--yea, doubly sure,
That you have not sins of your own.
For you know, perhaps, if the tempter's voice
Should whisper as soft to you
As it did to him when he went astray
It would cause you to falter, too.
