Society & Culture - 19 January 2007

I usually go to Supercuts to get my hair cut/trimmed. This costs $13.95, but I never know how much I should tip. I know that at nice salons, people tend to tip high (15-30%), but I wasn't sure if this applied to the more budget-friendly Supercuts. The haircutters usually do a good job, and I tend to always go back to the same location. So, how much should I tip? Thanks!

Personally, I think they are both wrong.

Its a tit for tat fight. They hit me, I hit them... I think it is simply crazy at this point with the he said she said nonsense.

Hamas wants to erradicate Israel and they fire their little rockets into Israel. Of course Israel bombs the crap out of them for it.

As an american and christian I cannot support that craziness over there. I cannot support either side because both are wrong.

Palestine needs to leave Israel alone and Israel needs to leave the Palestinians alone.

They are like the brother and sister that sits in the back of car constantly pestering each on a long trip.

Am I naive or what am I missing here?

Can one truly be happy without knowing the truth (whatever it is)?

Jesus was Jewish, and the Jewish men of the age had to be married before 18 or it was a hugh sin against God. He would have been granted no audience if he wasn't married. All the references in and out of the bible about Mary suggest that they were. What do you think?

Doesn't make much sense seeing as you choose no religion. I'm not saying you don't belong here, I'm just curious as to why.

in one of the verses the bible clearly states that god ripped apart small children and killed women.It also states god created evil. So explain how this loving god would SIN and go against his own morals? (i will get back to you on where you can find these verses in the bible)

If the bible is the word of god, then why should'nt we take the bible as the sole source to know the things of god?

I’m sick of hearing sanctimonious Brits complaining about Americans and talking down to us. Some of the crap often spouted by Brits:

1 Yanks are overweight
2 Yanks are loud
3 Yanks are racist
4 Yanks are religious Bible-bashers

Lets dispell these myths

1. Yes, many Americans are fat. But I've been to the UK and lots of Brits are fat, too. I live in Northern California and there are few fat ppl here. BTW, Britain is 3RD in the world for obesity: http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/hea_obe-health-obesity

2 Americans may be loud, but so are lots of Brits. Ever been in the UK when the World Cup is on? You'll see lots of loudmouthed, arrogant flagwavers

3 Racists do exist in the US, but its also a problem in Britain. I heard lots of bigotry directed at Asians when I was there

4 Americans are Bible-bashers? You Brits have an entire REGION (ie N. Ireland) where Protestants & Catholics fight over religion like it was the 15th Century.

Get off your high horses, Brits.

should we also include The Lakota Creation as a valid theory?

It starts like this:

In the beginning, prior to the creation of the earth, the gods resided in an undifferentiated celestial domain and humans lived in an indescribably subterranean world devoid of culture. Chief among the gods were Takushkanshkan ("something that moves"), the Sun, who is married to the Moon, with whom he has one daughter, Wohpe ("falling star"); Old Man and Old Woman, whose daughter Ite ("face") is married to Wind, with whom she has four sons, the Four Winds.

Don't look at me for it, it isn't my theory. But wouldn't it be fair if your God gets a place in our schools as a valid theory, that we include this Lakota Creation story as well?

I was born in New York and am stilling living here. I just got done with college and would like to pursue a career in politics, as that is where my passion is. My goal is to be the Governor one day.

I am an honest person and was thinking about just coming clean at the start so they know who I am. I don’t have anything against religion, just how people use it.

Do you think I have a chance?

I have recently got my first job and am on my own for the first time. I went to the grocery store and during my purchases bought some cat litter and put it on the bottom of the cart.
When i checked out I forgot to tell them about the cat litter, and hence when i walked out of the store the alarm went off!! The manager pressed charges despite my repeated offerings to pay for the cat litter!!
He said "punk teenagers like you have to learn, stealing is wrong"

This guy has insulted me and mocked me, I need revenge, but I dunno what to do!?
does anyone know how to bring down a grocery store from the inside out??
