Social Science - 4 December 2007

while i was taking the train home one day i usually sit by the window and stare at the trees and building while listening to music. On the side of one building some vandalist wrote "Logic is a threat". At first i just though it was some kid trying to be bigger than the law. Then i started to think about it and couldnt really think of an explanation of why this person wrote it. My question is what do you think this vandalist meant by "Logic is a threat"

like from a distant galaxy or possibly another universe or reality? like you know how we look at microscopic organisms under the micsroscrope? We could be those microscopic organisms to another civilization higer and way more advanced than us, and they are looking at us and learning and studying us. Then i though about my(how many known dementions are there) question, and i though, what are the organisms that look at under our microscope to the higher more advanced civilization above us if there is one. maby if there is a more advanced civilization looking down at us under there microscope and studying us, maby they dont have the technology to see the organisms we look at under our micrscope, like the organisms under our microscope we see are in a totally different demension than that higher more advanced one. just like us humas. what if the organisms we see under the microscope are studying even more incredibly impossibly small organisms under there microscope?

...the voices are always negative? Why can't someone have a voice in their head saying "Dang, you look great today!" or "Nice job on that project!", or at least something constructive like "Hey - why don't you go for a salad for lunch instead of that Big Mac?"

Ok, so I suffer sometimes from night terrors...whereas I have a bad dream and freak out and my wife has to wake me because I can't wake up from it...The last 3 nights in a row, I have had these...2 of which I can remember vividly...one was being stuck on a ship...I found a way to get her attention to wake me...and the other one I was being attacked by an invisible creature that was biting my arm...Last night I guess I had another one, (I don't remember) and I guess I woke up, cuddled up with my wife and then she went to get up and I pulled her back down and wouldn't let go (don't remember) All I really remember is that I had a hold of her in my dream and was trying to protect her from something...

Anyone else ever had this happen to them or someone they knew?

My boyfriend of 5 months just revealed to me last night that he was in a relationship when we met and started dating, and he continued to see this person. he said that he felt really guilty and wanted me to know. God had already revealed this to me in a dream, so I really wasn't very surprised. but the strange thing about it is that for some strange reason, I am not angry about it, almost like I dont even care, but of course I dont want him to know this. I do however like him alot, I am just not in love with him. so how do you explain this?? shouldn't I be devastated and crying my eyes out right now ?

I sometimes feel as though no guys find me attractive...I think I heard this one guy who I liked a bit say that only a blind person would find me attractive...Im so sad. I know I'm a bit overweight, but I think I have a decent-looking face...I dont know, what should I do? I hate feeling so bad. I feel as though the only thing I can focus on right now is school, because at least that can't really judge how I look :(

There's this guy from my work that I like. We met months ago on a work get together but work in diff. states. We talk now and again by phone and have even got together once..we like each other & he told me that. Also he wants to come see me soon. I asked him what he was up to for the weekend and he told me that he had invited a girl to his house to cook with him. I asked him if this was a girlfriend and he said no it is just a friend. His voice didn't hint of any feelings for her. Do you think he likes her as more than a friend? Also, if he wants something with me, why mention her at all? If he doesnt want something with me, why doesnt he tell me he feels something for this other girl? help.

I think the high divorce rate is primarily contributed to immature behaviors and attitudes of many Americans. Since the military develops self-discipline and respect, which are two qualities that are seriously deficient in America, I think the divorce rate will go much lower because many more Americans will respect and love their significant other much more and will develop more self-discipline, which would help prevent them from cheating or doing anything else stupid.

Also, after being in boot camp for a long time and being deprived of female companions, I developed a more heartful respectful for women. I don't know why, I guess when as a guy you go through such a painful experience for so long without women it makes you appreciate them more. Kind of like how you appreciate food more after you go on a hunger strike.

I could be very wrong, and most people (including me) would think that this is a crazy idea. But I'm just curious to know what you guys would think about this

More and more women are leaving this gem off their resume, or are neglecting to mention it in polite company.

Should the degree be renamed: "Learn-to-Hate-Men Studies"?

I mean how does it affect anyone ? Our society tests candidates on a case by case basis, you pass the test you get your score and later employers only care about results and performance, with their eyes set on the dollar/euro people who have any say have become blind to racism or sexism who denies that lives in lala land. So why all the rage ? I mean studies have found out that asians are the smartes on earth and I have yet to hear of men rallying in front of the japanese embassay throwing sushi at them.

I thought someone might have some experiences with dream interpretation. I had the WEIRDEST dream last night, and woke up really disturbed by it. Please lend your insight.

I’m at the horse races and it’s the Kentucky Derby. There’s 26 horses in the race, which is way too many. I have a lot of experience with horses and that’s just too many to have out on the track. I think that as the race is about to start. Anyways, the race goes off anyhow. At the beginning, a bunch of the horses get squeezed out, a horse trips, and a jockey falls off. It’s all a big surprise. The other horses that got squeezed out just get stopped by their jockeys. One of the jockeys tries to give his horse to the jockey who fell off. He tells him that he’s the one who deserves to run in the race, so the fallen jockey should get on his horse and try to catch up. The fallen jockey is telling him no, he can’t.
