Does your cat do this? If I pet him just right, he'll start purring and flip over on his back, so I can rub his belly. It's so cute! :)

I was invited to a party in a castle in the indian ocean, and i have my diving attire but I want to know if mermaids smoke sea weed? I don't want to be hanging out with a bunch of high mermaids, and I don't do drugs. And the mermaid I am trying to get with, I don't want to if she smokes sea weed. So does anyone know if all mermaids smoke sea weed? Thanks.

There is no way we've become that politically correct. I'm not saying I want to call someone this but I just want to know how I'm supposed to describe someone that isn't "literally" this way? I was watching Comics Unleashed and I noticed that when a comic said that word, he was bleeped. I understand we shouldn't be making fun of people who are seriously mentally challenged but back in the day, who didn't call their cousin a "retard" because of acting goofy?

I have a few white friends who occassionally say things that other black people might find offensive. But I give them the benefit of the doubt, and generally let it slide.

But one of my other friends says that I should not tolerate it. That someday my white friends will turn on me (as if that makes them any different from the black ones). I dont think my white friends are flatfoot racist, I just think they grew up with in mayberry. Should I not be cool with them?

We read reports of men jumping out of bushes and frightening women, but have any men ever screamed and sort help over a woman doing the same thing. I have been round the block more years than I care to mention but have never seen an incident reported in the Newspapers.

haha i think this is a stupid question in general but i saw it posted somewhere and it got me thinking that in certain parts of the country specifically the south and midwest have more racial tension then other parts.

im black and i have friends from pretty much every race out there and my neighborhood is mixed, my school is predominantly white with other races here and there. and my friends are from god knows where - everywhere!

anywho...i know ppl are different by experience so whats your opinion?

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE KIDS WHO WERE BORN IN THE
 
1940's, 50's, 60's and 70's !!

First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried us.

They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a tin, and didn't get tested for diabetes.

Then after that trauma, our baby cots were covered with bright coloured lead-based paints.

We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking.

As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags.

Riding in the back of a van - loose - was always great fun.

We drank water from the garden hosepipe and NOT from a bottle.

We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually died from this.

We ate cakes, white bread and real butter and drank pop with sugar in it, but we weren't overweight because......

WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!!

I know that Americans are ready to mind their own business and respect other people's freedom of choice, but I am always hearing that in Europe such groups are treated in a much more tolerable way. Is this true? Could countries like Britain, France and Germany be more tolerable than America? Wasn't America supposed to be the true "free country"? If not, then what does the Statue of Liberty do and why is it standing in Ellis Island???

It seems people like Al Sharpton Jesse Jackson and Hillary always answer their questions with a NON answer. They never answer a direct question, just re direct and continue on about something else. More people are doing this in my personal relationships as well. Are we all lemmings following these sleezeball politicos?

This is more of a philosophical question. The reason I asked this question was to find out peoples opinions on what would have happened if Africans had gone into Europe and the Americas. Would they have colonized it the way Europeans did or would they do something different. Would Africans abuse their power? Or are Africans genetically more moral and peaceful? If colonization and slavery would the resulting new Race of American-Africans and European-Africans resent there African roots or there European Roots?

I was watching South Park the other day and it was on Scientology. Throughout the show, they were telling where Scientology originated from and like what the scientologists actually believe in. They said they believe in like aliens and that there was this great war and the dead aliens' spirits live in the human's body??? And like on the bottom, it said "This is a true fact" or something like that. They were saying it was true!! is it? I mean, I dont know anything about scientology and it sounded really stupid. Especially knowing that South Park is a bunch of bull s h i t ! ( I still ove it) Someone please explain to me
