Question: I had a conversation w/ my relatives and they were saying that all pedophiles are white men because that’s what they show on the news. One if four black American girls are molested or sexually abused by the age of 18. The average black girl does not have white men in her circle to do such and I said this and I told them that most of the pedophiles in our community are black men the only reason they don’t get caught is that the adults will blame the child and/or cover for the man who is abusing the girl. If the black community actually reported most of the sexual abuse that goes on in our communities do you think that would tip the racial scales as far as pedophiles in the news?

I want to send out my wedding invites with stamps that are a picture of my fiance and myself. I bought some from Photostamps.com, but they were kinda pricey, and I was wondering if there was another place to buy them from. You can upload a photo, and then order the stamps, and they mail them to you. Pretty cool! Any help?

Of course it is a fascinating subject but it is not the ONLY thing of importance in the world. Do teens even know about the world or even the world around them?

1) It can cause cancer
2) It has murdered more than 50,000,000 people in the United States alone since 1973
3) It often causes women to commit suicide because of the depression following it.
4) to "save people from their 'unwanted' child", a person is shredded to pieces, sawed apart, smothered, or pickled to death. They feel 100% of the pain.

We are responsible to protect other peoples' lives (the children's)

The Baby is not part of the mother's body (genetic science proof), a human (biology), and therefore is a person with rights to "...life..." (The UN Declaration of Human rights, the U.S. Constitution, the Rights of Man and Citizen)

The Hippocratic Oath says "to do no harm"
Fancy that! a Greek from the 5th century BC could tell that fetuses were humans, just the same as you and me!)

Contraception and Birth control don't prevent pregnancy at least 50% of the time, so that idea encourages peole to have sex, which leades to unwanted pregnancies, and then abortions. also

I have a condition in my ear that has caused me to have a few weeks off of work - they are very understanding and say they don't mind, but this week my mum and dad split up and my mum is all on her own, no money and has lots to sort out.

I went to work today an explained the situation and said that I wouldn't be able to go in for today and tommorrow, they said it was fine, but I feel really guilty for letting them down again, do you think I should be feeling guilty?

Saggy pants. (Men's Pants) When they walk with pants down so far it hinders them from a normal walk. Comb in the hair. What's with that? "Then" one of those silly looking people comes into our place of work and they request a job. (Looking like that?) Do people know how to dress for success? And what's with this "Thing....Garment....what ever it is" the men wear on their head? Looks like underwear. What's with that?

Hi Folks,

I know that we are not all in a position to pick & choose ideal employment, but when I encounter miserable and grumpy folks, who are fed up with their work life, I wonder "well, do something else more suited, then".

I have chosen a career in an area of designing & installing power stations in remote parts of the world, so get to play with helicopters & big trucks etc.

My first college holiday job was putting thousands of toy tractor tyres on toy tractor wheels.
Soul destroying.

Surely, in an ideal work environment, which doesn't exist, we should all strive to look forwards to going to work, as we then enjoy it as a big part of our lives.

What do you do, and what do you you reckon on this notion ?

Bob

I'm tired of hearing that crap! "Oh, it's not to good a movie..... You should watch RAMBO!!!" "You're a guy! You should watch Terminator! The Bourne Identity, that kinda stuff!" "Pfft! The Notebook? Man, you cried over it?! Dude, that's stupid!" "Oh, I like Mel Gibson's We Were Soldiers......" "Dude, Cyrano de Bergerac was a stupid movie, anyways......" "Man, what's with you, crying over Titanic?"

News Flash, guys: I watch the movies you name!

How did the term "laugh my *** off" become a popular phrase? Did somebody really lose their *** because they laughed so hard? And does it really make sense to laugh ones butt off?

ok, this is the scenario: i regularly complain of being fat - even though i am within a healthy weight range and am of average weight. i know i am not fat, but i wouldn't mind losing a little weight... its not hugely a big deal, as i work out most nights and eat very healthy foods. people say there is nothing wrong with my body and that i am not fat.
my flatmate is naturally stick thin and is a head shorter than me, she is tiny. she also says i am not fat, but that i am of a healthy weight.
one night, we were really drunk, and i asked her if i was fat - and she said yes.
around 7 months later, she was describing to me a girl from her work and described her as being, "a bit fatter than you". she then quickly corrected herself and said, "um a lot fatter than you...". and she kind of trailed off and tried to act as though nothing had happened. i did not mention anything to her - but i do believe she had made a Freudian slip, which occurs when a person says what they really mean before

I'm curious.

In forums, I notice that many people use the name 'Anonymous' or 'anon' etc when they are writing ridiculous, obscene answers or comments. Why not use a screen name or at least make a name up if you don't want to give your real name? Better yet, who cares if you use your real first name - you're not the only 'John' or 'Mary' in the world...

I just wonder... do these people feel that when others in the forum then 'attack' them for their answers, that they are less affected by this 'attack' because they do not have a 'name' and thus no 'identity' (whoever false it may be) to speak?

I often wonder. Any insights would be great :)
