Ok, I am getting a portrait tattoo of my grandmother on my left thigh and a heart to her right side and a portrait of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt on the other side so when you put them together it's those two with a heart in the middle. Does anyone know if portrait tattoos hurt more than any other and does anyone know if they're expensive and if it's easy for someone to find someone to do that.

A 4 year old boy takes his sisters hair conditioner and actually unscrews the top of it and urinates in it. Then screws the top back on. This I find to be rather disturbing and this really happend. A little girl my mom babysits brother did this, she's 11. She called me crying about this because her mother just laughed, and never corrected the child.

I believe that everyone in the world has both good and evil in them. Question is, is it easy to be good, or even easier to be evil. ie, have you ever got road rage when driving you car, got offended by a coment someone said, or even hurt feelings from something said in the past, and then your mind thinks I should do so and so, and then you think no, I will not. Some thinks it is in upbringing, others thinks its in mind control. Others thinks it is in your destany? What do you think, why do people do some of the bad things they do, and why do people do good? Learned or is it gods will, or just unknown? Any comments, good, bad, or whatever. Thanks for reading. This question will be decided by vote.

"directly" defined--You had no loved one lost in the events of that day. You yourself were not present at the scene of those events.

In my expereince, the people I've come across who'd I'd say were highly intelligent usually weren't the happiest people. Often, they felt a bit misunderstood and were very sensitive, which made their feelings get hurt easily.

Write down every single thing that you can imagine would be in your life if you were perfectly happy at this very moment. Imagine that you have NO limitations at all.

A few more questions-

In what situations in your life, and with whom, are you not perfectly happy?”

In looking over your life, where and when have you been the happiest? Where were you, with whom were you, and what were you doing?

These questions were published on the 'net by Brian Tracy; they should make you think.

Ok so i asked "what is Freud's uncanny theory?" and a user on Answers had this opinion about him:

"Yes, the "uncanniness" of it, is that he has been proven through psychological research to be wrong about nearly all of his theories. The only ones not proven wrong are the ones that can't be confirmed or disproven through research. This was the problem with Freud - he just theorized, made things up from one or two observations of people that were not healthy mentally! And then tried to generalize this to the average population. If you know anything about statistics, research methodologies and science, you would know that Freud is a joke!

Keep in mind that he smoked more than 12 cigars a day and he was addicted to cocaine. He took his life in the end, through an increase in pain medication because he couldn't stand the pain from the cancer and the cocaine addictions. He is an embarrassment to the science of Psychology!"

What do you think?

Agree/ Disagree and why?

no really, are there some aphrodisiac chemicals in there or something?
everytime I smell something coconutty, my hormones turn on.. like tonight I went out to eat and the waitress had on this coconut perfume and whoa, I suddenly felt like kissing her. maybe this goes back to the time my first girlfriend and I went to the beach and she rubbed me all over with coconut oil, but maybe somebody knows if coconut has something in it that's supposed to cause me to react like this?

All the windows and doors are locked. It's broad daylight. Maybe you were drunk or stoned or just stupid -- but somehow you got locked outside naked. How would you get out of this mess?

Say they're a slow learner and get some things backwards all the time, but they LOVE hard math classes or they're anxious in social situations but LOVE acting classes & public performances. Is there a psychological term for that type of person or is it simply "determination," "stubbornness," etc.?

Alternately, how can they learn not to need challenges to be happy? Or is that okay for them always to seek one?

What happens to you is not nearly as important as what matters to you!
Except, that what matters to you is often a result of what has happened to you.

I feel there has been a huge negative change in our society. 10 years ago young women were considered strong, bright, opinionated, and respectable. Today it seems that a majority of young women only care about appearences, celebrities, they are way too ditzy, and dress provocatively. It also seemed as if people were finally starting to really really accept the "black" culture. Now, the term "******" is used way too easily, in a deragatory sense, and no one wants to correct people when they say it. Not to mention the new season of "Survivor" where the show is dividing up teams by race. Didn't our ancestors fight for something?
