I've seen this question posed before and people tend to answer by explaining the whole process. I KNOW that sometimes you NEED to face the shower to do certain things. I talking about the rest of the time. When you are just standing or daydreaming. Which is your default standing position? Towards the shower head or away?

A couple years ago, I had a dream about a massive tsunami hitting several islands. Later the next morning is when I learned of the Tsunami that actually happened, that was so devastating and widespread. Ever since then, I have wondered why I had that dream. I rarely remember my dreams, but for some reason I did that night. Was it just a coincidence?

every day we play the game of life and we do it well. do we play chess or do we play poker. basically I talking about how we solve problems. some people are calculative {chess} and some people bluff there way through life {poker}.

which is the way you solve problems and why.

here some examples of how each work.

poker solution: when someone his holding something good against you. you instaly solution and bluff an say you have something better or try to by them off.

chess solution to that problem: you think for hours as you come up with a way to solve the problem. eventually putting the other person in check mate.

I kind of both

p.s. you can go with another game for your answer if you' like.

I agree with this quote, it's all about how we choose to handle our problems, we can either go about it the right way or wrong way, what happens to you is something you can't prevent but you can control the outcome of it, it all depends on how you handle the situtation.

do you agree with it too ?

What are the things women envy about men?

Here's an example a woman wrote on this site for another question:


I don't know if you would call it envy, but you have to admit they got it a lot easier. They don't have a period, don't give birth, don't have mood swings, the world and our culture revolves around their wants and wishes, and even sex is designed more for them than it is for women.

I know of course it isn't easy controlling your lower extremities when you are a guy, but other than that I think it's pretty unfair what women have to put up with. Everywhere you look there are billboards, commercials, and media that all appeal to men's fanticies, as if we don't even exist unless that is our purpose.

I have yet to see a commercial where a guy walks into the house, gives his wife a huge kiss and starts playing with his baby (that would be a fantacy of mine), but we as women just deal with it everyday. It really is demeaning, but what can you do? I would give anything to leave my 2 kids with someone for 8 hours a day to go out and socialize with other adults and get paid for it, go home and have dinner waiting for me, and spend the rest of the night relaxing and doing whatever I want.

On the topic of sex, men can do their thing wether their partner is in the mood or not, then finish whenever they want. Women on the other hand can't really do anything if the man is not in the mood and her resolving pleasure is completely optional. What kind of cruel joke is that?

I don't envy men, but I sure do appreciate it when they look beyond themselves for a moment and give credit where credit is due.

Back in 2000, I had to drive from Illinois to Texas because my mother was moving back there. I was driving a small car and she was driving a 14ft. U-haul truck. Normally, it takes 24 hrs. non stop. But with the truck the fastest she could go was 45 mph. We, fortunately, had walkie-talkies so we were always in communication (she didn't have a cell phone). My mother is impatient and persistent so she insisted that we travel straight through. I've never taken the trip B4, so I didn't know what to expect. It was early March, so the weather was cold to give u an idea and I was on NoDoz. 40 hrs. later and on only 1hr sleep in those 40 hrs, I was shot. Somewhere in Louisiana, she took a wrong exit and cars and semi trucks were whizzing by and it took it's toll on my nerves. By the time we got home I was sick to my stomach, swaying and exhausted. Now, I can't drive on expressways w/o getting very nervous. Am I being paranoid? I feel like I was traumatized by that trip.

Does it bother you when naive people (ktbaron) believe that even confessed serial murderers shouldn't be judged for their crimes but rather coddled, reformed (hah) and reintegrated into society to offend again and again rather than being dispatched into the here after for the safety and common good of society?

Because some people excel socially whilst other excel academically? Therefore an academically smart person could be considered dumb by a socially intelligent person and vice versa. Or do they go hand in hand?
