Feel free to list as many as you please. It / they can come from any genre ~ rock & roll, country-western, R & B, whatever. And tell me why, if you wish. I could list several, but I will start with "The Tighten Up" by Archie Bell & the Drells--it's just a stupid song. Then how about Happy Together by the Turtles--stupid lyrics, irritating music/instrumentation. In the song, he sings these words: "The only one for me is you and you for me. That's redundant.What he means is "The only one for me is you, and me for you." Another is Mary's Boy Chile by a lot of people. A Christmas song about Jesus Christ being born on Christmas Day. Duh! Christmas Day was "born" to commemorate Jesus' birth, which WASN'T Christmas Day. He was born in the spring. So, whadya think? Got any for me?

when other races try to justify blacks being enslaved by the white man our own fault?? yes, we know devious, underhanded, money hungry, sell-out bastards gave certain africans up to the white man. but does that justify the way we were treated and the adversities we still face today? I mean, how come we can't go to school for free when "ablicas" do?! They came here on their own, we were forced!!

I was looking at an adult movie and there was a generic one that said "compare to 'butt bandits' movie". Should I get the generic movie or the name brand one?

I wanna know what you think, but as for me...

I like:
-TEXAS: Like a "Lone Star" in terms of its hospitality and generosity.
-Oklahoma: Lot like Texas
-Tennessee: Laid-back, mellow
-North Carolina: Much like Tennessee outside of the cities
-South Carolina: Old South charm, Charleston is nice tourist attraction
-Mississippi: Old South charm, sweet people
-Louisiana: Food, culture, that down home feeling
-Alabama: Much like Mississippi
-Georgia: Just as long as you avoid ATL

I can do without:
-Kentucky: Might as well be Ohio. Bad drivers, very unwelcoming to outsiders, snooty women...and I'm from there!
-West Virginia: There's nothing there!
-Virginia: like New York/New Jersey south
-Florida: like New York/New Jersey south-south
-Arkansas: had several bad service industry-related experiences in this state. Plus it elected BJ to four terms as Governor.

This is my opinion based on life experience. Every state has its good and bad points, though!

America and Britiain opposed each other?

I mean, other than the American War of Independence, have there been other times when USA and UK have been on opposite sides of a serious issue?

They don't seem to teach history very well where I am, because all I know from history lessons at school was that Queen Victoria reigned for 64 years and that WWI and WW2 were terrible.

My guy friend and I were engaged in a debate, and we'd somehow started on the subject of homosexuality. We were talking, and he believes that just because one member of a sex, has sex with another member of the same sex, that does not make the person homosexual. An analogy used was like when some women kiss other women, it does not necessarily mean they are lesbians. While I agree with the fact that just because some young, partying college girls tounge kiss one another all in the name of fun or experimentation, that does not make them lesbian; I am not sure if it would be correct to apply the same logic to two members of the same sex having intercourse with one another. Although as I write this, it is kind of making sense to me...because after all some people are just very free sexually, and like to experiment, and I know that homosexuality is not just about sex. What's your stance on this? Do you agree with his argument? I guess it all would depend on the individual...

At the bottom of a question - once you have posted it - its says ''Edit question" - this is a lie as all you seem to be able to do is add or delete. Edit means change aswell. You can edit an answer but not a question - why ?

They say suspension instead of termination?

Guidelines instead of Rules ?

I also echo what other people have said about why do they think that choosing which are best voters over best answers is more important than making sure the infrastructure of this site works properly i.e. editing out swear words etc.,

i.e. you can't put **** but you can put - a r s e - etc., and other things like making sure you can back track on your answers easily by having a proper archiving system - they are so hung up on this chat versus q/a business - wheres the common sense in that !

As many other people have pointed out - and I agree - what is the point of violating and suspending some people while others get away with murder.

The only thing right is the introduction of awards

As some of you may of heard by now Pope Benedict was reading a passage that was written hundreds of years ago comparing Islam to Christianity. To sum it all up the passage basically stated that Islam was evil (not my thoughts, it was what was stated in the passage) But anyway many Muslims, and Muslim leaders got offended by the remarks calling the Pope a evil man who wants to kill the Muslim people and a evil man who would go down in history with the likes of Adolf Hitler and Mussolini. I find that to be real extreme, since many muslims want to kill out the Jewish people (which is what Hitler tried to do). Which brings me back to my question, Why do Muslims think it is ok for muslim leaders to call for the killing of Jews but it is not ok for anyone to call for the killing of Muslims. (not that the pope was calling for the killings of muslims, that is what the muslim leaders took the speech as)

Seems that i have a negative outlook about things given these circumstances.

I had fair weathered friends, they are not happy when i achieve something.
I can't adapt to any enviroment with plastic people..and they are everywhere.
I'm bothered by the fact that people nowadays are too competitive, so its hard for me to trust people.

I don't believe in being friends or hanging out with someone who has hurt you, or wronged you, because it brings back the painful memories.
