Why do they tend to name their kids so unique names. I really like it, but just wnat to know if there is a reason why. For example, i have black coworkers who have named their Children, Shanique, aiisha, Jazterika, and other unique names. And, how do they come up with them?

I was looking on Craig's list and this guy had an ad looking for "size queens." The ad also specifies no BBWs, so I know that can't be it.

I am friends with this guy and when I talk to him he looks straight into my eyes like he can see my soul. I absolutely melt when we make eye contact. And when we do talk he will stare into my eyes for about 3-5 seconds longer than most people. Is it a mental connection or something more? Do you think I'm the only one that feels this way or could it be mutual?

In school we had to learn so much about American History and Government, but is it true that some Americans actually think we all live in Igloos and other stupid stuff like that?

I am sitting here remininscing on those days in which I didnt seem to have a friend in this whole wide world, but one thing I could depend on was my belief that God knew me and loved me. My heart was always filled with happy hymns or solemn prayer in those days. I used to sing myself to sleep in a house with no lights or water and wake up to interesting days, challenged to find water to bathe. Those days are long gone. But the other day, I visited in a dream that old decrepit house by the train tracks , where my belief was so strong. This time I (me being in the now) was afraid. I was thinking OH No! This place is scary! When I first thought of this question, I was concerned I was forgetting my God, but now, I am refreshed to know He was with me in such horrible times. And I know He will comfort me the rest of my life. I can count on Him to deliver me, to bring me out, and I will not be afraid of fantastic and terrifying situations. I will look back and wonder How did I get over? But I know! It was my God all along! Yay! Good night, people.

I am a white girl with brown eyes, and am tired of always hearing that blue and green eyes are more attractive (white people almost worship light eyes). It really does bother me and sometimes even hurts me when I, or other brown eyed people, don't receive many compliments while people on tv and in person can't shut-up about light eyes! I know it's not very important, but I am curious and would like to know some opinions.

If your teacher teacher treated you differently because he taught one of your older siblings, what would you do? And, let's say this sibling was.. a "hooligan", and your teacher always thought you'd be like him and so never gave you a chance or showed you any respect..

Isn't banning gay marriages just a need for the Christian right to force others into their definition of the "proper" way to live?

Is that was the "pursuit of happiness" is all about?

I guess telling others how to live is what makes them happy?

Im not a racist, i dont hate people based on their skin color, nationality, religion and/or sexual orientation. I dont like to have the hate feeling in my life.

But why are still people who are racist and proud of it, i wonder what it will happen if, for example, they are in an accident and in the hospital the doctor is black or hispanic, arent they going to take any help from them?

So if any racist people asnwer this question, can u let me know why do u hate? personal experience? because is a family traditicion that u are afraid to get rid off?

Some guy just said in an answer that something sounded gay.. I know he did not mean homosexual and that is my point.

I am sick and tired of hearing gay being used in a derogatory manner. What if he had said... that sounded so black = a violation. That would have implied being black is bad.

And just like many prejudice ppl think black ppl are bad or less, I am sure many think being gay is bad or less BUT that is only your opinon.

We have rights and pay taxes too. We should not have to tolerate your abusive demeaning statements towards us... just as you should not have to tolerate being called derogatory names.

I was just wondering what makes life worth living and special. is it your career or something else. Sometimes life just feels hard with the financial burdens and not having a career that makes me feel really happy. I'm tired of just getting by. I feel like i'm 40 and going nowhere.
