Take work for example. Many people get jobs based on the Buddy System. Its not WHAT you know that gets you good jobs. Its WHO you know, and what connections you have.

Many may argue that through hard work one can achieve anything. And i do agree with this. But people must realize that life doesnt work this way. Not everyone can work as hard as me or you. I think the reason why life is so hard is because the current world goverments dont want us to become independent to the point where we dont need them.

I am half-mexican, half-chinese, but have grown up in north america. Due to that fact, I've only dated white guys and don't find the majority of Mexican or Chinese guys attractive. I am from an upper middle-class family, so I'm not a "golddigger" should we say, I just find white guys more (a lot more) attractive. Sure there are very hot Latin guys and a scarce few hot Asian guys, but I generally find white guys way cuter. Is that okay?
On that note, are there any white guys that like hapa girls? I mean for a longer relationship? Like white guys that would marry someone other than their race?

It's apparent here and in the "real" world. Is it because of political correctness? pollution? Aliens? I must know

taken from todays paper. a black balaclava exposing the eyes and mouth would not attract attention on the ski slopes but it scares the pants of bank clerks and kidnap victims waiting to have there throats slit.the burka and veil go unremarked in their country of origin,but in britain.they sharply define one section of society and deliberatly excludes the rest.so muslims thats just one of the reasons people dont like your style of dress.on one hand you want exceptance in to society then you wear clothes like that.kind off defeats the object dosnt it.so to my question should the veil and or burka be outlawed in the name of multicultural harmony.and dont forget its not excepted for someone to wear a crash helmet or balaclava in to a bank so why is the burka allowed.

The difference between nasty, and just plain humor !! Sometimes there is only a fine line beween these two. One could see this clearly in this Yahoo questions and answers. Speaking for myself, i like a little humor, as that is the type of person i am ! I would like to hear some comments on this

Hi I like to hit the garage sales for bargains and other neat stuff. I live in a suburban location (fairly upscale...even though I'm a pov) and there are tons of people (mostly various dealers and ebayers) who hit the area really hard. Does anyone have tips for me? Several of the sales I've went to lately were cleared out by dealers going the night before - I may have to do this just to keep up - what peeves me though is that they just don't clear out the antiques but useful household stuff that working poor people like myself need.

all they are good for is for advertising 'stuff'.

none of them are great artists or musicians, or writers or, or scientists, or discoverers, or adventurers or really anything of much amount.

All they excel at is being sales people for brand name goods & companies & thats about it.

what a useless bunch of overpaid rubbish people.

agreed?
