Cultures & Groups - 9 December 2007

My girlfriend and I have been together for three years and living together for one of those years. When I FIRST met her I had a two young (5 months) pit bulls Jack and Karen. I told her that to love me she had to love my dogs. She was great with them, they're great dogs and very social and soon they became OUR dogs. So, last week she brings home this CrAzY rat terrier (WITHOUT CONSULTING ME) that has been terrorizing Jack and Karen since the day she brought him home. So after ignoring him for a week and letting him terrorize them Jack barked and growled at her little monstrosity and now she thinks I should put MY dogs out or crate them all day so her dog can run free. Her dog barks constantly, IS NOT house broken, and snaps at anyone who comes to the door. This has been an on going arguement. I feel she is inconsiderate for not discussing it with me before she got another dog? What do you think?

OK, so I was talking with my cousin on the phone the other night and I heard her soon-to-be-husband saying something in the background behind her and then she said to me "oh, 'sam' (her soon to be hubby) wants you to know that his mother just LOVES you". I didn't know what to say since I've only met this woman 3 or 4 times in my life. I said "um haha, tell him I love his mom too(she really is a very sweet old lady)" and she did. Today she informs me that she is annoyed because his mom doesn't like her very much and she apparently "loves" me and she's kinda been taking it out on me since then. I don't know what to say. Did I say something wrong? Why is she acting like this? She declined my dinner invitation and has been very short with me. why did he say that?

Is it a racial slur to call a japanese person a jap? I didn't think much of it until I almost used the term refering to my japanese friend. someone asked me if she was korean and i was going to say "no, she's 100% jap" but i remember that white people used to call them that in concentration camps in WW2. so is the term "jap" equivilent to the n-word or w*tback?

I moved into a new neighborhood some time ago to discover that I was the only non-Indian living here. I have noticed that many cars are smashed - they appear to have many accidents. Office lady told me they almost ran over a toddler the other day as he was playing around (they had put a sign not to drive faster than 10 miles an hour but no one appeared to respect that). I see many little temples hanging out of their windows (yellow and red colored especially) and I could inhale some odor as if they burn stuff all the time. Some elderly spit frequently. I said "hi" few times and didn't get a single response. A lady looked at me in a strange way as I greeted her. I feel I am living in a ghost town. I am thinking of writing a novel about it :-)

Of course, it could be an isolated incident :-)

And I swallowed what they taught. It was rigid time of blind faith and doctrine. From an early age I knew I was different somehow, but I couldn't put it into words. I followed what was expected of me, and performed for the admiring crowd. That is until I couldn't do it anymore and had to follow my heart. I did so with trepidation caused from years of indoctrination, yet as I stepped forward into life I never abandoned my faith. I couldn't and can't. What I don't understand is why my faith has abandoned me? Rather, why has the teachers of doctrine made me an example when I live an examplory life?

I sincerely believe that G-d put me here not to test me, but rather to test others on how well they treat their fellow man.

Any mature thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Oh, and the cause of the conundrum is that I'm gay and in a 20+ year relationship that will last until death.

There was a Scotsman, an Englishman and Claudia Schiffer sitting together in a carriage in a train going through Tasmania. Suddenly the train went through a tunnel and as it was an old style train, there were no lights in the carriages and it went completely dark. Then there was this kissing noise and the sound of a really loud slap. When the train came out of the tunnel, Claudia Schiffer and the Scotsman were sitting as if nothing had happened and the Englishman had his hand against his face as he had been slapped. The Englishman was thinking: "The Scottish fella must have kissed Claudia Schiffer and she missed him and slapped me instead". Claudia Schiffer was thinking "The English fella must have tried to kiss me and actually kissed the Scotsman and got slapped for it". And the Scotsman was thinking: "This is great. The next time the train goes through a tunnel I'll make that kissing noise and slap that English man again. Calm down only a joke.

postulated that the next step in human evolution would be the ability to speak mind to mind. If you could do that with wild animals, which animals would you wish to use that ability?
