Let's apply this to real life. I'm innocent, so if you kill me, then it's murder. My brother avenges me by killing you, so it's justice. Then your brother kills my brother to avenge you. The flaw in Gandhi's quote up there is that my brother would have evened the score, restoring justice. Your brother started a new one by avenging a GUILTY person. What do you think?

Alright, so I have discovered this so-called "Top Contributor" tag that so many people appear to have. It is described as someone who is "particularly knowledgable" in a certain category. Don't you love how people can always fake their way into things like this, and it's always the people who are really good at things that spend life in a miserable unacknowledged existence? Not to offend you Top Contributors (I am sure a good deal of you know what you are talking about and have earned that rank with hours of hard work, but others have just earned it for nothing.), but in general, the people who earn credit are usually the ones who pretend to know how to do things, not the ones who put the best effort and most logical proof into things. What are your opinions? Agree or disagree, and why?

I'm asking because I'm curious. I never got passed marijuana, and even then I didn't like the high. Good thing too, otherwise I would be blazing with my pothead friends today, perhaps doing worst drugs.

For some reason (thank god for that) Drugs don't do it for me. I have an analytical mind, I'm always trying to dechipher everything. Impossible to do when my mind is altered. I remember the first time I smoked weed, I was so paranoid, I thought I was gonna have a freaking heart attack. I tried a few times after that, same effect, never tried it again. Despite the constant pressure of my idiot friends telling me that I have to build a tolerance for it.

Anyway, what drugs have you guys tried? What were the effects? Why, if so , did you stop?

Thank you

Why do beautiful women continue to go out with fat guys when even fat men don't look twice at a fat chick? And why do fat guys think that they have a shot with me? I'm not trying to be mean, but you know if a fat women asked out a good-looking guy who was in shape, he would either laugh or get angry. What's with the double standards? And why do women keep on thinking they have to live with a pig?

I don't have anything against drinking. Alchoholism doesn't run in my family, and some of my family members drink ocassionally. I don't have any reason why I don't drink, I just don't.

The other day I went to a bar with a friend (I usually don't go to bars, it was a spur of the moment thing). He met some of his pals there, we were introduced and the waitress came over and ask what we all wanted, some ordered beers, others shots, I didn't want anything so I told her to bring me some water....

Everyone looked at me like I was from another planet. Then the barrage of questions started: "why don't you drink?" "are you a vegan?" "are you one of those?" " are you gay?" "are you on the wagon (or off,however that goes)" just on and on.

NO. NO . NO. I just don't drink. Not for health reasons, Not because I'm a recovering alcoholic, or because I fear it. I just don't drink, jesus.

I felt like a teenager. It was like they were peer pressuring me to have a beer because "it wont kill".

well, I was thinking about something random my friend told me, and it was really weird!!!
There is this word that alot of people say to insult people, but they don't know the dictionary defenition for it, which I think is hilarious!! (cuz they are actually saying the person does something odd, and they might take it offensive, if they know what it means..)

well, I need to know this:
What is the word for when you have sex with a corpse??
or, what is it called when you have sex with a dead body??

I was randomly remembering this, cuz my other friend told me this: "So when things die and they twich sometimes it is called rigormortis"
I wanted to tell her about the weird thing I knew that she probably didn't....
So, a little help please??!?!?! THANKS!!

um...I think it starts with a "b", but, I'm not sure.....

I know that "sex sells" and I'm not implying that sex is bad, but I think the message that using lust to make a profit is ultimately doing more harm than good. And I'm referring to all types of media: magazines, tv, movies, radio, stereotypes, etc...

I was just wondering.....how many of you out there ever did a good deed for someone else and instead of accepting payment, reward or restitution, asked only that the person "pay forward"?
(for those of you thinking.....HUH? Pay Forward means....if you ever have the chance to do so, do a good deed for someone else)

Would that not be more fair? Why is it that smart people are so highly valued compared to the less intelligent when you consider that statistically, smart people are as "odd" or "unique" as dumb people. I don't give me the argument that smart people contribute to the betterment of society because the proof of that is nowhere to be found in today's world.

Most people are more drawn to things they show some aptitude for...but then there are people who can't do something but just do not give a damn.

For me it is wrapping presents. They look so bad...but it is a Christmassy thing and I am usually in such a good mood, I just love to do it!
