It's so addicting, yet sad to see that people are so lazy, clueless, uneducated and completely incapable of the most basic research and self reliance. So many questions show a chronic inability to solve basic problems by oneself. Anyone else see this place as the proverbial trainwreck? (You know, you don't want to look ,but you just can't help yourself?)

When I hear this subject being talked about, all I hear is "It's so bad that women can't go out after a certain time or they get beaten up." and stuff like that.

Guys, it's a totally different culture. Sure, you might not agree with it, but don't hold those other countries down that do. Just because we think women should have equal rights does not mean other people think that, and we need to stop judging these other countries because they believe that males are dominant. We have no right to say their country is wrong for discriminating against women. It's what is accepted in their culture and if you don't like it, too bad.


(Please note, I'm not agreeing with discriminating against women...in fact I hate the idea. I just don't like it when we (Americans) think we're better than everyone when really we're equal...we just have different beliefs).

the juvenile side of themselves by badmouthing others. Is it because they doubt their own beliefs and try to justify themselves by berating others?

I work for an adoption agency and see statistics daily for the kids in the foster care system....
1.7 million children are orphans because of :
abuse / neglect and abandonement
500,000 are in foster care. (awaiting for parental rights to be terminated)
100,000 are adoptable
1 out of 5 children who are "adoptable" will turn 18 this year, and be an adult without a shred of a family.
SO in Hollywood it is becoming almost a trend to adopt in other countries. Angelina Jolie, stated , that , "It took me longer to bond with Shiloh (her biological daughter with Brad Pitt) because she wasn't a baby I was able to pick out, Like my other children"
Madonna adopted from Africa.
Though these kids were coming from poverty. Do you think maybe the focus should be on helping Kids in America? They are in fact our future. When we are gone they will be the "American Body". Watch the link beleow:

Protecting the balance of nature? Nature was doing just fine for 4.5 billion years, get over yourselves. Get a life. These people dress up like they're going to war, spray themselves with urine to attract animals, then shoot them with high powered guns. They are literally waging war on the animal kingdom. Now that grizzlies and wolves are off the list, these "protectors" off nature can endanger them again

Is it just me, or old people (75+) EXTREMELY SLOW when checking out at a store?

I know whenever I get behind an old person my patience is going to be tested...

Cashier checks out their stuff, and they are dumbfounded that they have to pay for this stuff, and have no money ready. Then they either dig through their purse/wallet for money, or SLOWLY write out a check.

It drives me nuts!

I am not talking about the boardgame; on whatever level, do you ever think along the lines of pessimist philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer that , either way, you lose? (on whatever level) give an example

example: I take a medication for ailment X - makes that better but its side effect is long-term damage to the liver/kidneys, so you take......

I'm Chinese. Most people don't even care. But, some of my closest friends make fun of me for it. When they feel down about themselves, they go on about my 'chinese nose' and crap. Is there a way to get them to stop? I've told them, they're guys, so they don't stop.

I know sort of a wierd question. But it seems women are more ticklish then men but I realized since its just a series of nerve responses then there should be no reason for it.
