All right, this really frusterates me - and I was curious what everyones' thoughts were on it. Why is 'African-American' politically correct? My belief is, unless you were born in Africa and then became a US citizen, you're not African. I mean, I have family in Germany, and I don't go around demanding to be called 'German-American.' Why don't we just all stop referring to each other as 'black' or 'white' or 'democrat' or 'republican' and go on to use what we all are - AMERICAN? Technically, someone like Charlize Theron is an African-American versus someone like Jamie Foxx or Sean Combs.

I don't deny there is racism in this country, and I've grown up in a partially racist household. I, personally, am not racist. At the same time, I can see where the race card is being overused. I mean, some black people would have a fit being referred to as 'colored' and yet they gladly take money from the NAACP. Maybe I'm just blowing off steam...but does anyone else see this too??

Have you notice how much people give importance to age?
Isn't that just a number (if you consider people mature differently)? So why is that obsession with - at what age you did this, went there at what age or became this at what age? Sometimes I think people even use the age factor as a competition and deadlines...
Wouldn't it be a better world if what really matter would be - you did this, went there and became this just for the fun of it?

Don't Americans go on about the US being a land of liberty? It really is strange!

I have read a few answers from Americans that call people a liberal or imply someone is when the question is anti-war. Why is this? Is it still seen as a good thing in America to want conformity, lack of freedom and to be controlled? I thought the days of Milgram's subjects being the typical US person were over.

The cement cannot be removed under any circumstances, and your friends and classmates will refer to you as "Blockhand," "Concrete Pete," or "Cement Cindy," making fun of you on a daily basis. Plus, it will be uncomfortable and stuff. If you take the cement block off of your hand, millions of people will die of starvation within a couple of weeks. Will you go for it?

Think hard about your answer; search the depths of your mind for your true feelings on this subject. Ponder the grammar I have utlilized here. Does it flow with the poetry of a starry night? Or does it jar with the ruckus of a vibrating headboard? What do you really believe about "porn," or pornography?

With the Internet, its place in popular culture in shows like Friends and movies like Boogie Nights, and studies that fail to link it to antisocial behavior, is porn even really taboo anymore? Or is it mainstream, a commodity like toliet paper or light beer?

What do u do when you work with somebody that drives u crazy and irritates you? I read that "It's not them who irritates you, its you that lets him/her irritate you?" but still can't cope (and other co-workers can't either) with that I'm better than you, I'm the boss best friend and I'm so perfect I can't believe myself kind of attitude? Do you have the same problem? What do you do to cope?
