Help! I'm not good at making conversation. We have a team lunch this week, and I'd like to prepare myself as much as possible and perhaps try to introduce some topics that I am comfortable with. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Conversation topics? Current news that I could read up on?

Anything will help. Thanks!!

I mean, they're just taking up space and worse yet, they're stealing the love and care that the rest of us would be and should be getting!

PS: For all of you who answer this, know that I love you, so obviously this question is not directed at you. But for those who don't answer... you know who you are. >:(

I have been fighting through and for life for so very long now, and I am tiring. I do not believe in harming oneself, and would never do that. I am simply tired and worn out from my life journey so far. It has been more difficult than someone from Western civilization could imagine. I'm not whining about it, simply being brutally honest.
I am a single parent of seven, grandmother of two. I'm finding that my daily fight for survival feels rather hopeless. Doing things alone all the time takes a lot of energy, and I often can't see positive results from my efforts.
I give myself positive reinforcement when I can, but sometimes there just isn't anything in me to give myself. I'm empty, depleted, and tired. Sometimes a person needs another human being to encourage them to make it through a day.
That is what I am asking.
Please acknowledge me, even if it is simply as a citizen of this earth. I often don't even feel I am that much.

My girlfriend saw a 3year old getting attacked by their pet Rottweiler. Right next door. so my girlfriend called the police but did nothing more to help.
If it were me i would have jumped over the fence and helped the kid but she said that she did not want to interfere because she did not want to die
Who is wrong

If it was anyone else but Cosby, I wouldn't even have given it a second thought. But Bill Cosby has paid his dues, he has shown that black people can be something else besides thugs, drug addicts and criminals. So, what do you think of his views?

I am not being racist. I just wanted to know at roughly what point in time it stopped being the casual non-offensive word meaning black person and when it became a racial slur offending black people. Please, no racist answers. Also, the same question applies to other words that are now "racist" (I won't list them, that would be edging on racist) - at one point or another, they were not offensive and black people didn't mind them, but then at a turning point in time, these words began to be offensive. Why is this? And when did it happen?

People apparently dont want honest answers, they just want to be told what they want to hear.

isnt it funny that we americans try to be very protective and we wont let our children or teens have myspaces or things of that nature like get on a computer and use internet but we let the go out at night door to door and ask for candy and half the time to people we never knew or ever will?

I hate having to ring up call centers in america because I'm scared that there gonna be rude to me. Maybee its just me but they come across as authorotive and unhelpfull and well just kinda rude. They say things like I'm sorry Sir you need to fill out a 1f10 like i told you yesterday. I was in New Orleans and this women was really rude to me becvause i didn't hear her when asking for directions. I'm British BTW is this a cultural difference or my imagination or what?

If youre in a bad neighborhood at night and you see these young black teens walking in their hip-hop gear towards your car.. Are you a Racist if you LOCK your doors or is it the media and propoganda of the police department that has us believing that young black teens in hip-hop gear are likely to commit crimes.

Is this a sign of RACISM or a Sign of brainwashing that has us acting without thought..

Now if those teens were white and in their church clothes would you lock your doors?

I have trouble at school because I am in the 'popular group'. I used to be all nerdy goody goody, and I have had to work my way up.
This year I have started cussing and stuff, and it seems so fun at school. But when I get home, and I think about it, I don't feel good about myself. I don't know what to do.
