Remember when you were young and you got your first football for christmas or how you were prodded along to be like a man and like sports especially when you went to school and how you were kind of pressured to play a sport and anyways how you always grew up hearing your classmates talk about the latest team players and who is going to win the championship and do you remember that coach type teacher how they treated you like you were a wuss if you did not fit in witht the rest of the sports loving males and how that made you try harder to like sports and keep up with the games and you know "be one of the guys."
I think this is all a bunch of B.S. I think if everybody was REALLY honest with themselves , truthfully, even those coach-like man's man type of figures back in grade school would admit that it is more based on an insecure image than it is really caring for the sport in substance. Would you not agree or does that conflict with your programming?

I was idly pondering the state of our fair nation, and the world, earlier on, and realised we've made an enemy of almost everyone. Off the top of my head, for both the UK and the world (delete as appropriate), and in no particular order:

Catholics
Protestants
Jews
Muslims
India
Egypt
Iceland
USA
Argentina
Germany
France
Italy
Vietnam
Iraq
Somalia
Hungary
Austria
Russia
Finland
Japan
Communists
Capitalists
Whites
Blacks
Asians

And, at present, the 'Islamic Extremists' of the Middle and Far East (as well as our own shores).

This list is by no-means all inclusive or without errors so please do not point this out, but just represents a few of our enemies over the past generations.

So who do you think the next bad guys are going to be?

Driving to the office this morning on the M25 motorway, I looked over to my right and there was a woman in a brand new BMW doing 90 miles per hour with her face up close to her rear view mirror putting on her eyeliner! I looked away for a couple of seconds and when I looked back she was halfway over in my lane still working on that makeup!

It scared me (and this coming from a bloke....) so much that I dropped my electric shaver, which knocked the bacon roll out of my other hand. In all the confusion of trying to straighten up the car using my knees against the steering wheel, it knocked my mobile from my ear, which fell into the coffee between my legs, causing it to splash and burn BIG JIM AND THE TWINS, causing me to scream, which made me drop the cigarette out of my mouth, ruined my shirt and DISCONNECTED AN IMPORTANT CALL.

F**king Women Drivers!!!!!!!

Do you value their knowledge and the life lessons that they can teach us or do you view them as a burden to society. I am a hospice nurse so I deal with a lot of elderly people. I go into a good many nursing homes and sometimes I visit with the elders there who are not my patients. I have learned many things from them, some have told me of hardships, some of travels, some of wars, and some of course focus on nothing but their aches and pains while others are upbeat and happy despite their situation. So I value them and feel like I can learn much from them. How do you feel?

...
In 1600s, plague & other epidemic diseases , wars caused England's population decreased too much. The King found a way to increase it.
Males in prisons would help to fertilize the "nation", so it started to work,, women were taken to prisons and after the job done, they were sent home back..
So the word ..ck comes from;
Fornification Under the Control of the King ..
Is that why some English are son of a b.tch ?

We see it as early as kindergarten -- one person always gets picked as the odd one out who is the constant butt of jokes and ridicule. Even as adults, we do it -- we pick those who are different then we are and insult not only their choices, but their worth as people? What is it about hurting others that causes us happiness?

I'm doing a little investigation here! Here are six terms of endearment:
1) Poppet
2) Love
3) Precious
4) Dear
5) Pigeon
6) Petal

Could you list, in order, whether these terms seem most appropriate when applied to a man or a woman, or whether they seem equally appropriate for both?

They don't have to apply to a man/wife relationship. Just generally males and females from all age ranges.

Please say your first instinct! Thank you :)
