Bank tellers, Waiters, Waitresses, Bar tenders.

In my opinion, people who are rude to those mentioned, just don't have class and are straight out guetto. Why do people act like that?

I lost touch with this friend for 10 yrs. After a week when I met her again, she wanted to borrow $150 from me. I was hesitant but I felt guilty when she said her husband & kid got nothing more to eat. I didn't ask when she'd pay me back but she's the one who promised she would do so after 3 days.
It's been a week now and I didn't hear from her anymore! I feel guilty to "haunt" & remind her coz I know she needs the $ but she must also consider & ask me if I needed the $ as well. I worked for my money! To me, if she didn't have intention of paying or she'd delay it, she should have at least contacted me and not promised anything at all. She could have asked for "donation" from me and not used the word "borrow".
If you were me, would you just forget about it & her... or will you demand for your $? I really dislike people who "forget" about their obligations.

When you go to heaven, do you lose all memory? Would you still remember your parents and other loved ones? (I wouldn't be happy in a place without my family and friends.)

I would like to learn to converse with Indo-Americans, or be able to understand Bollywood movies. Something a bit generic, that if I were to travel there, I wouldn't be completely lost. I know there are tons of dialects, but a good jumping off point would be nice.

There alot of yahoo answers junkies , typing in day and night...
it has became a trend , socializing in here and some people dont answer question at all rather make posts commenting on the person who asked the question and critisizing his/hers point of view or attitude. this has really got to stop since those people are very annoying.. when i ask a question that is not cheesy sounding or funny, that means i want an answer and nothing else some people just go off chatting . yeah sure make a few comments but when u see a question like .."HEY WHO's HOTTER BRITNEY OR JESSICA" but when u see somthing like "How do you convert miles into km " plz dont go off about ur personals.

If an atheist did not believe in God, why, then would they care if there was a public display of a religious symbol, esp. a Christian one? Wouldn't to object acknowledge that there might be a God that the person hates rather than seeing the symbol as a harmless object that means nothing to them?

Since this is what this world and society has come to, don't you think maybe we actually may need a little guidance? Even if you're not of a particular religion, do you have enough spirituality within yoursef to pray over situations like this?
Do you think lack of prayer and lack of belief in a higher being has something to do with the tragedies in society today?
I'll tell you honestly yahoo friends, this is the kind of thing that makes me sick at my stomach. My heart aches for this world and the people in it. This is only one story. This is only one story that has been brought into the public. This kind of thing goes on all day every day, and much worse. We have people killing people for $172.13 in a cash drawer of a convenience store, and someone has to bury thier loved one. All to pay for an addiction, to fill a void. What is that "void"?
I'm open to suggestion here from every age, gender, and religion.
Everyone.

Why do most people have a problem with believing that all life evolved from a single instance. Through 4 billion years of time (that is a very long time) and a little bit of serendipity, we evolved to ask the question, where do we come from? We are the only species on the planet to discover science and use it to understand the cosmos.

All life on our planet is made of the same basic chemistry, based on the same basic elements. Nitrogen, Hydrogen, Oxygen and Carbon. Carbon is the key, all life is based on carbon. Go one step further, Carbon is abundent in the Universe. Perhaps on other planets, life evolves as well.

To deny that Evolution is fact, you are just deluding yourself of the beauty of the evolution of life in the Universe. There is this sense of oneness with everything once you accept that simple truth. We are not important or special or unique. The entire universe is full of life, no more important than we are.

The countries that are the most religious are also the most violent or ignorant in our world. Consider Western democracy headed by the USA, and as published by the President of the United States of America.

“We are a peaceful nation, a freedom loving nation”

Some people around the world, especially those who have lost their loved ones, could not be faulted for interpreting those words as meaning ...

“You will be free, or else”

It seems to me that the most religious countries are clearly ignorant in the majority, and the most violent. For the record, the population of the USA is 85% religious, and I’m sure you will find that all of the other Holy War countries are just as bad or worse.

After reading some of these supposed "questions" on this site, I am beginning to wonder if it still exists, especially among the young. Do people these days sacrifice morality for the sake of what they deem as humor? I am not a prude, I understand sick humor but come on, we have to draw the line somewhere. What do you think?

If movies portray real life, then would a white person actually make a dumb move and go investigate what's behind the curtain? But then again, I have heard of some white people walking out in the woods along and getting stung by sting rays. How is that intellectual?

The absolute lowest enlistment rate for Officers and /or NCOs of any socio-ethnic-economic group in America is held by the Jews!

One/eight of one percent being Jews in all of the combined military Branches!

Speaks volumes!!!

Ever wonder why?

The blood of American men and women seems to mostly pour from the viens of the Goyam spilled in the Middle East!

This conflict, make NO mistake, is ALL about Israels Right to exist!

So just where are all the American Jews these days? Some say mostly on Wall Street and in Kosher valley (Hollywood)?

Logic dictates there should be lines forming around the block with guys named Finklestein and Goldberg itching for a scrap begging to enlist...but where are they, hiding out in Woody Allen brigade?

We seem to be living in a world where guys are so anxious to prove their heterosexuality that everybody just goes overboard trying to be a "bloke", including making a complete fool of themselves with all the wrong things.
Is it really that wrong to refuse to go there and be gentle and natural instead? I would be very interested in hearing both males' and females' opinions on their perception of how a man should really behave.
