Does a picture of a pretty woman effect your purchase decision?

Do you want to buy it more or less or no effect at all on your decision?

Now, I know it all depends on ones definition of good and bad but for the sake of this question, lets use the sterotypical good and bad. I think most people are bad at heart. Humans especially when they are younger are so cruel towards one another for no reason. Most humans are selfish and only care about themselves. They seek revenge and feel hate. Humans are only kind to thier friends and family but to most people are a**holes.

Think outward, rather than inward

Be thoughtful about others, not yourself

What do you guys feel about this one?

To all those who answered my questions,
I am truely sorry as to invoke emotions which would cause you to answer such trueful and almost uniform answers. Let me put your minds to rest as there is no immediate danger to my or anyone else's life. You see I am a college student majoring in the field of psychology, and the questions, while morbid, were intending to study the trends of a public forum. The 30 min. study was intended to research two human traits, 1 being the actions that would be caused by the visibility of someone in a life threatening situation, and the 2nd being wheiter or not their would be followers of deviant trends after someone commented to the fact of cheering or assuring the nature of the questioning in a manner of disrepect. I am not refering to those who meant to answer honestly but assuringly but to those answers that did not go into detail but just cheered on the troubled individual. The study was intended to run 24 hours but do to the fact that Ive recieved...

all the answers that were given were very good ones. but they are still abit empty. I've tried alot of the things that you all have suggested but I've run into so many things that won't allow me to get into school or get my own business going. I have prayed to god about this on many occasions. I still have the same problems . I've worked very hard all my life and I'm still not gettting anywhere should I just give up on trying to be something better or should I keep beating my head on the wall until I either break the wall or my head? If there is anyone that can show me how to get it right I would be so very greatful to them I would give the shirt off my back to thank them. love and respect to all that answer.

Let's see...I hit the $100,000,000 jackpot in the lottery, got the girl of my dreams, home of my dreams, and the car of my dreams. People were nice to me, and didn't treat me like $#it like they've been treating me lately.

How about you, what was your best dream ever?

I understand that exchange rates encourage / limit international trading, and I understand that the changes are similar to the stock market and supply and demand. But, these numbers... where do they come from? Who decides? Is there an international committee of bankers that decide what they feel like charging people? Who decides that the GBP should be worth 1.98 against the USD instead of 1.70? I am ignorant, please enlighten me.

I'm in a dept where it's all women and I dread going in everyday and having the fake smile pretending that I'm concerned about them in any way and I know they feel the same. All they do is gossip and feel like your doing things to take their job! When I've worked with men in the past there was never any DRAMA, men are so laid back, give me a dept with men anyday!
How do you feel working with women esp if your a woman too?

'' when u ggo out you must see people and feel so alone'' and '' sounds like your confidence has took a big dent''
