i was watching a show and it mentioned that hemp was used to make ropes and other useful items in china then america started to grow it and make ropes and such. But who came up with the bright idea to smoke it first? were they really that bored? nothing to do? why would someone just pick up a weed and smoke it? how many other plants did they smoke before they got to that one and stopped? just wondering.

My answer, condemning female circumcision, has both positive AND negative feedback. So I thought it should be more openly debated.

What do you think?

Hopefully, no-one reading your answers will find out who you are and try this, if you answer that you WOULD hand over the cash!

My friends and I like to go out regularly and do something a little... embarrassing. For instance, we like to walk up to random people and just say "Hey, long time no see!" and see how long we can keep the convo running, or walk up to girls and go "You suck. You know why?" and try to come up with a reason on the spot. Just silly, harmless stuff like that. We're going out again tonight and maybe tomorrow night. Anybody got any ideas for stuff we could try?

In the past it was regarded the norm for men to ware tights, wigs, high heels and make-up. when and why did this change and are these days coming back with the introduction of the moistureising men known as metro-sexuals?

My Vegan friend called me a pervert for eating meat! This is no joke, I don't know what was going on his mind, but his agenda is to stop me from eating any meat.

I laughed and thought he was just joking around, but he had this serious look on his face and said to me "I'm your friend, and I don't want you to die!! Aghh!! Meat is like Cigarrette smoke... I hate you!"

What should I do with him? LOL. I'm thinking he didn't have enough sleep, that's probably why he's acting weird... I don't know.

Yea well....he snapped because...apparently he was in love with me and he thinks my bf is emotionally abusing me and wanted me to get out of that relationship soo....he asked me to choose between his life and my bf....i didnt choose i just didnt answer that.and told him i wasnt going to choose.
Now I dont kno...what i should do...should i try and help him? or should i stop communicating with him? i doubt he wants to tak.
