Social Science - 10 October 2006

I have followed Yahoo answers from its conception to this current moment in time, and have noticed that there is a huge concentration of "trolls" present (look it up on wikipedia if you are unsure) there also seems to be a significant number of answers that are resolved by wikipedia or google search. So has Answers been compromised and what is the point of it existence (apart from like myself bored moments at work to laugh at stupid people - the dead cat Buddy and its deranged owner - not to mention the countless replies and deciding whether asking a racist or inflamotory question or being the tw*t to answer is more redicolous). I thank you.

It occurs to me to see the reason in some part of the world that the women just let their underarm/armpit hair grew naturally.

Most mainland chinese women I saw, eventhough they are pretty, they kept their hair trimmed but not shaved and you can easily get distracted by the appeareance of the hairs and these turns me off.

I understand that in some part of the world like in middle east also exist such thing. in Africa, its not very noticeable since its curly and dark skin, and some still pick their hair constantly.

in other part of asia, its already become traditional thing to endulge beautiness without these hairs..... so whats up with the girls from china??

thanks in advance.

How can you have a 'tide that raises all boats' and keep inflation down at the same time? If everyone who is making 20k a year suddenly made 30k a year, there would be inflation. If there is low inflation, it means that demand is stable, that no one is becoming capable of purchasing more, which means that class is stable and that there is no social mobility.

Then the question this leads to, how can Capitalism claim to be about what's best for anyone besides the upper classes? Why does anyone believe in something like 'trickle down' theory? Isn't it really 'crumbs from the table to ensure the fortunes of the wealthy?'

And if social mobility is on the decrease and the wealthy are rigging society for themselves, why aren't more people angry? Is it just that America is intellectually decadent and thus incapable of understanding what is happening to them, or do people not mind because of some other reason?

I have seen several posts and self descriptions in Yahoo 360's (and throughout my life in general) that people with high IQ's like to tell people about it. For some reason I find it a bit tacky.

i have been told that i have a strong identity by a friend of mine, i told him..i guess so,but i just know what i want in my life and who i am- it's no big deal!!
(:
just curious of why some people have a stronger self-identity then others? it's not like i am superconfident about everything all the time,it's just that i have strong preferences and i know my pecking order in the big sceme of things,in other words- i know who i am and i am perfectly fine with myself,imperfections,flaw s and all- the good just ain't as good without the ugly i always say.

The DVLA know exactly where any untaxed car is located among the millions of cars in Britain.

But the Government haven't got a clue as to where thousands of illegal immigrants and terrorists are located.

Do you think we should put the DVLA in charge of immigration? LOL

I’m so happy, lively and jolly at home, but at work, I clam up and become a mouse. It’s like I have 2 personalities (which I don’t by the way – this is just a saying!).
