Is it ? Really ? Did you ? So it's not there then ? So you haven't got it then ?

It's so IRRITATING, just stop it!

i've already told the head of department and they said they'll look into it but nothing has been done. i'm seriously unhappy about this.
coz the thing is, this woman has something against me, i don't know what/why, but she's always nasty to me for no reason and i hate having 2 work with her. she's always taking the mick out of my accent which really hurts me coz i like my accent. like today, she was complaining i wasn't pulling my weight so i told her i was really tired coz i had a really late night yesterday, then she twisted my words and told everyone some utrue cr@p. i also overhead her talking about me during lunch hour and she said "he doesn't like his life, i think he's gonna kill himself. don't blame him either since he's such a lowlife." she also says that i'm "really stupid" coz i'm a punk and she doesn't respect my lifestyle and beliefs.
who do i report this to? head of department isn't doing anything and i'm really unhappy about this.

I've already asked this on womens health but would like to reach a larger audience. (How many of us go onto womens health) Have you had one? Tell me, please, about pain, activity, fear, psychological effects. I know it's very individualized, but on a scale of 1-10, how much pain were you in a week later? 2 wks? Where you able to shower? Were you scared out of your mind to the point that you can't sleep at night just thinking about this very major surgery?

Hii...

Today is International Women's Day. I was reading different features on this day in a newspaper. While reading different successful and unsuccessful stories a question rise in my mind which i want to share with you all. What's youropinion about women's success or failure in science &Technology world. I have found many of my friends (both girl and boy) saying Technology is men's world.What you people think is it a men's world or there should not be any such mentality regarding education as anyone can comeout with flying colours through hard work and devotion??

I hate the word revenge it sounds too negative, so I sugar coated it. I am not speaking of a physical retaliation or destroying something they own. Just bringing their pride down in a very public way. It would not be considered slander because it would be the truth. Infact court documented truth. I know I should think of karma but it is sssooo...tempting!

I think reading this in 5 minutes would be better than listening to the news in a lifteime.
My question is: what percentage of what I say is acceptable to you?
Hi people.I'm Iranian and I live in Iran.When I chat with people from other countries, I understand that they have totally wrong ideas about Iran.I just wrote this article to correct you.
The first thing they accuse our government of, is that they don't let you be free.Actually, Iranians would be some of the most free people in the world, since thousands of millions of strict rules in other countries, don't even exist in Iran.In Iran every single house has a sattelite. Sattelite channels have a serious influence on people, now the way they wear clothes sounds like western countries, only there are scarves that don't seem to be worn because we're Muslems.People wear fashionable scarves to make themselves more attractive and most part of their hair is out.They do whatever they wish to, and some of the things they do, don't fit our culture at all, however it's normal in Iran, since people have got used to such acts and behaviours.You really need to pay a visit to Iran and you'll be surprised seeing the difference between what you imagine and how the real Iran is! It's wonderful, believe me.The Iran you know, is related to at least 40 years ago.At present, everything's so great.Even at that time Iran was not a bad country either, but many things have changed so far.
Some people think music is forbidden in Iran, but did you know that Iranian pop music has won the prize in France in 2005?Iran's full of music and they're all current pop music.The best you've ever heard.I've put some links at the bottom of the page to some Iranian music.If you like you can just right click on them and choose "save as" to download.


Some people think women don't have any rights in Iran! What would you tell me if I tell you that women are now overtaking Iran? They're treated very well, most of the times they're the winners in most cases: They get into the best universities, they get the best jobs, they've got rights that have made it difficult for men to marry them, because husbands seem to be under control of women and they have to buy them expensive things and treat them very well, otherwise women will have the right to divorce them, and then the their husbands have to pay them a great amount of money which most husbands cannot afford. (so, they can simply sit in the corner of prison! lol).Another funny thing: Your footage about stoning the women who have committed adultery.Have you ever asked yourself they relate to how many years ago?Just for your information, those are from Afghanistan which was once ruled by those freaks (Taliban).I find it difficult to make you understand that Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan are SEPERATE COUNTRIES! and thet we're Persian not Arab!And I find it even more difficult to make you understand that Iran is a normal country like any other countries in the world.There's nothing mysterious about it!(The media is very good at making good scary titles: BEHIND THE CLOSED DOORS!!! IRAN UNDERCOVER!!! This would be enough to scare people away! Iranians are much more educated,sophisticated, intelligent and open-minded than what you think!!! I'm sure you don't know that there are lots and lots of Iranian geniouses and scientists that are all under 25.You don't hear about their discoveries and inventions on TV. A small example is this 17 year old boy who's invented 72 amazing inventions that the biggest scientists haven't ever managed to.You don't know that Iranian students and spotsmen are winning gold and silver medals in different compotitions in the world all the time such as robotics, biology,maths,physics,anything! Why don't your media talk about them?Did you know that the countries having the highest number of scientists in the world is in this order? 1-India 2-Korea 3-Iran
Some people think, Iran's a desert! Iran's a modern country with very beautiful nature and lots of historical places to visit.Please take a look at the following links and see if Iran looks like what you think or not! (Surely it doesn't!)

See how the media are fooling people? None of the things you hear on the media about Iran are true.So, please don't worry about us, cos we're really free.Ok?

I thought it's better to clarify some political matters as well:
Some of the Americans I chatted with (not all of them), said here in the U.S it's said that president Ahmadinejad hates the U.S and Israel and wants to nuck them!! Now, this is so odd, their media is good at putting comments, it's easy to show a video or an image of our president or leader on the T.V screen or on the internet and say he says this, he says that.....
First of all you should know that Iranians don't hate anyone, if our government complains about some injustice that's now going on in the world, it's not bad.Is it? Nor do we hate Jews, nor do we hate Americans.They're both nice people.If they're media is fooling them, it's not their fault.If I were in thier shoes, I would hate Iran too regarding all the terrible lies they keep hearing about it nearly everyday.Who says we want to force the others to convert to Islam?Have you ever found a Muslem that knocks at your door and asks you to do so?Who says we call Americans athiests?That's so funny, Christians and Jews are both God believers.We've never disrespected them.I wonder why the media like putting words in our mouth and raising hatred.In Iran, religion would be the least important thing, it means that where you come from and what you're religion is, are not important for us at all.And I wonder why some Muslim countries think there's a problem between Shittes and Sunnies, it doesn't make sence in Iran.
I wonder Iran is a threat to whom? How is it possible for Iran to nuke somewhere while it doesn't have any nukes?!!!(The media have never been intelligent liars).Has Iran ever attacked anywhere?
Some say he said: Israel should be wiped off the map! But have they told you the rest of his speech and that why he's said this at all? If you know a little literature, you know that it's a passive sentence.He's never said that IRAN wants to wipe Israel off the map! And he wasn't talking about destroying Israel, he was talking about relocating Israel, so that they could live seperate from Palestinians and they could both live in peace.They've only told you this phrase not the rest of it and it's mistranslated deliberitely.Be concious! Iran's always defended itself, but it's not an offensive country, while most countries have nukes and are clearly threatening Iran to nuke us! Good isn't it? Some say he's said: Holocaust is a myth! Ok, he's said this, but is saying it a crime? If 6000000 Jews were killed, that's so terrible, but those 300000 Shiite Moslems who were killed by Saddam aren't important at all! 650000 Iraqi people are killed and it's not important! When Fox News simply says: America and Israel are capable of destroying and killing all Iran's 690000000 population (, it's OK and no one says they're treatening other countries to nuke them (I saw this with my own eyes on the Fox News web-site) I know Americans don't like it either, but what can they do?

If I ask a trivial question on Yahoo Answers like, "Should I fish, fight, or hold the light" I seem to get funnier and wittier answers from women compared to men. Why do you suppose that is?
