Do you know what I mean? Stereotypical. Think Mean girls, High school Musical, American Pie, Grease, and books like Teen Idol.

I'm from New Zealand, and my school is nothing like that. Stereotypes are not that obvious. For example, I'm in the top teams for my sports, but at the same time are pretty much obsessed with computers. Then I'm really into fashion and design.
Sure, there are some straight out 'freaks' at my school, and then there's groups of 'cool' people, but the lines between them all are entirely blurred. It would be hard to make a clear definition.

Could you, say, go into the school canteen (lunch room, what ever you call it) and label the groups of people sitting at the table?

Also, does everyone in the school really turn up for all the games, of the school's top basketball/baseball/american football team? Is there really that much school pride?

It just seems so... un-imagine-able.

Well i'm not a religious person . I believe more in science and that stuff so i was wondering...
I kind of think that relgion in some ways limits what humans think they can do.

Like the other day for example i saw a video posted on youtube by jeezus something ... anyway he said that he didn't believe that it was posible for there to be life on other planets - his reasoning was (sorry for those religions , Funny as hell ) anyway back to topc ,

he said that it would have been impossible for jesus to go to planet to planet , galaxy to galaxy and so on ... to preach to these intelligent life.

Well that's one example , what do you guys think ? any coments , please be mature. tq

If race is constructed that means it was created. And because is was created it was defined and started to exist! So do you think there's only one human race?

What can you say about a country that offers mediocrity to their people? Ex. People are in need of something, something that is of their best interest, for example, partying. In order to attain that demand/need, businesses create clubs that has low quality(mediocre) just so they could give what the people want, what they crave.

Senator John McCain uttered the following: "For me to stand here and ... say I'm going to declare divorces invalid because of someone who feels they weren't treated fairly in court, we are getting into a tar baby of enormous proportions and I don't know how you get out of that."

He's taking heat for using tar baby. Is it justified?

Should McCain be offended if someone says "pass the cracker" when they want a Ritz?

"Why Does My Booty Stink?!!!! I NEVER TAKE A SHOWER?"

I've wondered this before, but is there some kind of great prize for most points that I don't know about or are ppl just that bored? I must be missing something here. It's really a little eaxasperating. I asked one time, why ppl give smartass answers. I think I'm beginning to get it.
