Yes it gets cold, and yes it snows, but some people just turn into complete jerks and lose the friendliness they had during the summer!

I mean we are speaking in stereotypes here but, it seems to me that females are more apt to believe in the supernatural, horoscopes and other magic like things than males. Is there a reason for this or am I just imagining things?

As senior car park attendant in charge of someone we hope to get soon, it can be quite lonely and I thought Y Answers to which I have just associated myself seemed a friendly haven where some of my actions would be supported as an official doing a difficult job with people like the Liddl crowd who will use our spaces when they know I am on break but the responses have been very similar to our more well, awkward regular customers who ignore the rules and threaten to cut me.

Their reaction to the school teacher that allowed kids to name a teddy bear an 'improper name'.

This is from Yahoo News:

"Concern for the teacher's safety grew Friday after thousands of Sudanese, many armed with clubs and swords and beating drums, burned pictures of her and demanded her execution at a rally in Khartoum."

They rob us,
carjack us,
shoot us.
Rape us
But, when a white police officer
shoots a black gang member
or beats up a black drug-dealer
who is running from the LAW and
posing a threat to ALL of society
... You call him a racist.

I find it funny that life throws so many obstacles at us and hardsihps, and people either act fake like, something's wrong with you if you complain about it all, and you're some kind of a loser, or they seem to be the types of people that complain 24/7 and can't see the beauty of life. It's either extreme, but more the former.

I don't understand why society and people have to act SO fake.

And it is. It's all about the percieved image of someone or something, not what they're REALLY like.

I'm sure many people fake, lie, cheat, whatever, to what they want their lives to be,and put on a show for everyone else, and if you're going through a hardship, or something is difficult in your life, they look at u as to say, what the hell is wrong with you?

It seems like mostly Americans are like this. Like, if you're not doing great in life, work a great job, successful, well put together, etc etc, they act like it's the 2nd coming of Christ.

Why all this phoniness?

If some sort of plague or other incident wiped out everyone around you and you couldn't find a trace of humanity by searching or radioing or the Internet, there would be a number of things to keep in mind. Where would you go and what would you do?

As an instance of one of the lesser-thought of issues, how close do you presently live to any nuclear reactors? In the event of a catastrophe that removed all other humans, that reactor would essentially be in a final countdown-stage until meltdown (unless you and you alone knew how to shut it down safely, of course). So you probably wouldn't want to stick around near any cities that have nuclear power. Staying too close to any nuclear stockpiles might not be so good, either - if any one of the bombs goes haywire and the detonation device triggers via a malfunction at some point decades down the road, you'd be critter toast.

So there are some examples of possible issues. What would -you- do first? Where would you go?

I may have to get involved with this if I get a job that I really want - and I need a heads up as to what it is all about. So if you have experience of this and would like to pass it on to someone who is just thinking "map reading and mud" then I would be really grateful. Thanks

Consider some would say oral sex is immoral just procreation is ok and definately not homosexuality. Others would consider murder is immoral. But then in such a case, would you consider a homosexual immoral if they contribute tremendously to the community? How about the WW2 heros, who murdered (trained to kill is murder. premeditated) yet saved the world then therefore are immoral? In my personal opinion since we are just human there are only immoral or moral acts not immoral or moral people. Agree?

Does anyone knows where Singapore is? How do you define Singapore?
The island, always spotless and well organised, is becoming even cleaner and greener. Though little is left of Singapore's wilderness, growing interest in the ecology has seen new bird sanctuaries and parkland areas gazetted by the government.
The customs and festivals of the different ethnic groups in Singapore highlight the nation's rich cultural heritage. Singapore's people are largely descendants of immigrants from the Malay Peninsula, China, the Indian sub-continent and Sri Lanka. They have gradually acquired a distinct identity as Singaporeans while still retaining their traditional practices, customs and festivals.

Like 4 of them and they stayed there for hours. The ambulance and fire truck were sent away only minutes after arriving. Everyone cried. This is so weird. I could see the whole thing through my window. She was a young mom and I just saw her the day before she died. I don't want to ask people picking up her stuff now what was going on.
