If you look like one of the characters on yahoo avatars do you think people on the street will look twice when they see you? Could it be beneficial in public life?

So far this morning, and it's only 10.30am ish I've been hit by a car while trying to cross the road, not hurt but the cheeky madam swore at me!! (I was on a crossing and she was stopped initialy then drove into me!) Then I get home and my Parrott's dead, we've had him 15 years, I can't believe he's gone just like that, he was fine an hour earlier! If things come in threes what's going to happen next?

'Blowing in the wind' was one of the greatest anthems of the sixties, an anti-war protest. What does the song mean to you today?

I know someone who went for a job at an indian restaurant but the person who owns it.. said to him he couldnt work there as he wasnt an indian.. (only wanted a waiters job).. so not cooking..

Do you think an English person could say that and get away saying that?

i.e. working at an English pub?

im not Racist.. was just wondering..

Any Views...

It's one thing that I find extremely irritating, and I'm just a normal 16 year-old.

Most common errors include, for example:

o "Your" instead of "You're"
o "Should of" instead of "Should have"
o Mixing up "their, they're, there"
o Saying such things as, "I did good" instead of "I did well"

That's just a few examples that drive me up the wall. With my generation living on the internet and with their cell phones it seems that common grammar skills, etc. for high school students are at level with kids in 2nd grade.

Please tell me there are others out there who still value this stuff we call proper English.

like, they brag about it almost as soon as they got off the bed. I don't mean to generalize, but this is mostly the case.

I am looking for a punk in London to interview for an article I am writing for a magazine.

I would like to shadow them for a day, and write a 'day in the life of' piece.

If he/she can't promise to provide financial support for you and are unsure if it can provide a stable living home for you in the future.

But he/she can promise to love you for the rest of your life and no others, and make you laugh everyday, and will protect you with its life.

Man I know it's 4th of July! The people across the street were shooting off fireworks in the middle of the night! I thought it was ridiculous especially when everyone was trying to sleep! What do you think? They were shooting illegal fireworks. But what do you think?

I was wondering if in a discussion about clothes if your son asked their parent if they could wear colored underwear? Has he ever said that my friend wears all these cool colors and I want to wear colored briefs? Did you say that when we go to the store you can pick what colors you want to wear? Did you say anything to encourage his decision? Have you seen your son in underwear before putting on his pants? Have you commented and said cool underwear?

I think it would make our life much easier, that way parents like mine would never worry about me marrying some white man and the English dont have to pretend to be tolerant, they could keep their race pure. It would make life much easier, its already practised, lets make it official, hence it would prevent any ethnic tensions and make English happy as well.

It hurts when someone calls me it...I've never tried to talk the way I do, I talk that way natrually. I've been told I talk too proper or I talk 'white'....At 17 im so bemused about society ...I don't live up to the black girl stero-type and because of that I'm taunted by my own race...It really hurts, and messes with my head...What is your take on it?

I see people criticizing each other just because of religion or preference in sex/gender. Why doesn't anyone know that it's not their choice to decide or say what's right or wrong for those others? These are just extremely ignorant people, I know, just need opinions.
