I mean they come here and all they do is spend their lives saying "We are the best" i mean get a life, your probably a 40 year old virgin with nothing better to do, and i just know im going to get someone say "Do we all irritate you?" And just get on my nerves, your Country isn't the best, i wouldnt give it top 5, 80% of us immigrants are mexicans, so thats why theres high rates, your country has more fat people than skinny, more arrogant pricks than normal and is just powerful, your full of sh*t, and if you think im jealous, than you can think that if it makes you fell better, ide rather be a slim Brit than a fat american anyday, we ran this world back before your time, we owned you, so *** off n get a life, LOL

If there is garbage on the tv or on the radio, is there not a demand for it? More often than not, the news focuses on the bad and the shocking, but would people tune in to watch good news all day? If the news is biased one way or another, isn't that facilitated by its daily viewership? In light of this, is the media merely a reflection of society or is it its facilitor?

I married a good american man but I now feel very dissapointed, people where I live are very impersonal, not very aproachable, the TV is full of materialism and shallow mindness, the music is the same, its been such a lonely experience that I am getting sick, I do not want to end the relationship cause I am having a baby girl and breaks my heart to separate her from his father, yet I want her to experience the loving kidness of the people in the country I grew up in. My life is becoming by the day less and less meaningful.

My husband's mother is in the modern-day Ku Klux Klan. As most everyone knows, the K.K.K. is an enemy to all those who are not of the caucassion race. Anyway, my husband's perspective on the K.K.K. is rather interesting. First, let me explain that my husband's parents have been divorced for several years and his Dad has long been re-married. My husband's grandfather(Dad's Dad) fought against the Nazis in World War 2. My husband says that the Nazis were indeed our enemy, and one we destroyed. Now, this modern-day K.K.K. has the SAME idealogy of that of our former Nazi enemy. America is a nation where ALL people are to be equal and free, the K.K.K. wants division and white dominance. America is against terrorists, where the K.K.K. would rather terrorise those who are not of the caucassion race. May I ask, is this K.K.K. really a country-loving patriotic organization or is it nothing but yet another enemy to the United States and what we stand for?

I met some men between the ages of 27 - 32 still living at home & receiving an allowance from their parents. I ran into them at a bar, they were very good looking men, and were boasting about their allowance. When I asked them about their living arrangements, they saw nothing wrong with it & kept saying "would you turn away free money"?

I don't know what to make of this!

Why do people continue to attempt an institution that is flawed in surviving todays society?

We all know a few successes, but we ALL know many more failures... why the denial?

I love all women but I am spicifically attracted to Asian and South american Girls. I love the differant skin color the dark hair the different shaped eyes and how small many of them are.
I am comfortable in my fetish, but I wonder how people out there see it. What do you think about people having a racial preferance?

This is actually a serious question. I used to work with a girl who admitted to doing it often, but I think that probably isn't the norm.

Has anyone noticed these billboard posted along the highway with a picture of a baby on it and the words (it maybe just posted in Minnesota)
"What! Embryos are Babies!"
In small letters below this are the words
"Heart Beat 18 days"

Aside from the grammar issues of putting a exclamation point after a question word, who the hell are these ads suppose to convince! (see, I can do that too)

Seriously, that's worse then saying a baby is an old man. Embryos are defined as between the stage of life between fertilization and 8 weeks. Babies are defined as between birth and around 1 year. Seriously, how can anyone argue that these are the same thing. Even epigentically, they are different at this stage.

Furthermore, what in the world is hearbeat argument suppose to prove? Even if you were to argue the absurd idea that anything with a hearbeat is a baby, that would still exclude all embryos younger then 18 days. Can someone please explain why in world someone made these stupid ads?
