    Terrorism in the 21st Century

    I think the reason people assume terrorism has become more widespread is actually because of the media. In the last century, we've gone from paper to sound (the radio) to visual (television) and a combination of all three, PLUS now the internet. We just have way more sources covering these...

    Terrorism in the 21st Century

    What are your thoughts on terrorism in the 21st century? I think it's a horrible thing, of course; however, it is something we have dealt with as the human race for a great, long time. While the methods of terrorism have changed, it is still present and there to create only one thing--fear...

    Anyone else think shows like Teen Mom are contributing to the problem?

    I'm sure there's way more to it than is actually being seen. None of these girls want to have to go through the turmoil with their families. They get enough earfuls about getting pregnant in the first place. The help comes only after they've been told they screwed up (and sometimes it just...

    Anyone else think shows like Teen Mom are contributing to the problem?

    That's not the case though, about family always taking them in, and that was portrayed through Kailyn's story with Jo's parents. Kailyn couldn't live at home due to issues with her mother so her boyfriend's parents took her in (it's a place to live, but it's not technically her family). Plus...

    Anyone else think shows like Teen Mom are contributing to the problem?

    I'm really glad MTV is airing this show; not only 16 & Pregnant, but what comes after with Teen Mom. It's extremely important to show both sides of the picture--being a teenager and being pregnant and the struggle of everyday life when you're bringing up a baby at such a young age. It's very...

    TOO MUCH WORK.

    When I was student teaching, it was overwhelming--literally (this is at the middle school.) We had half the time to do it (5 weeks), a second teacher work sample, lesson planning for the entire 5 weeks, lesson revision/adjustments--taking in all the factors--and the actual teaching of class...

    Damn that smooth talking Salesman

    I've never been a victim of impulse buys. I know what those salesmen are doing and what their goal is and I am especially wary of them when I'm with my mom. I do this because I know she's got a problem with buying shit she really, really doesn't need. So I try to keep her attention focused on...

    Men and woman relationships?

    1. If the guy isn't responsible and only wants sex, why does a girl stay with him? This is a difficult question to answer because in order to gain some clarity, one has to view the individual (female). She will have her own reasons. Not every girl in the same. Not ever girl who finds out a...

    What's your job?

    I can finally contribute to this thread! I am a sales associate at the shoe store DSW. Nothing prestigious. Not like my last position as Administrative Assistant at a radiology practice, but it's something. Next, I hope it can be something like "substitute teacher" or "high school teacher."

    Cleaning

    I don't clean on a daily basis. There are things lying around that were either a) tossed there by me/a friend, or b) the cats knocked it over and I just don't care to pick it up at the moment. Hell, there's a bowl of oatmeal from two days ago sitting on the printer still. Don't even get me...

    Irrational Phobias?

    After my student teaching at the middle school (and student teaching in general), I developed a panic disorder. Every day I have some sort of panic attack or I am constantly anxious. It seems to have manifested to me worrying about my heart stopping when it gets to low or too high, even though...

    Friday nights

    I'm the same. I don't do anything Friday nights mainly because I'm boring. I do like to go out on Saturday's, though. Not like out partying or anything, just whatever.

    Serious Long Distance Relationships.

    I think they can work under certain circumstances: 1) If you're already in a relationship and say for instance your significant other/spouse is serving in one of the armed forces, 2) If you're already in a relationship and what is keeping you from seeing one another is business-related, 3)...

    Blind Or Deaf?

    I would definitely pick deaf over anything else because a) I could still learn to communicate with people, and b) I am a very visual person. To lose my eye sight would be devastating, so I'm going with the latter. Sure, that'd mean I'd miss out on music and the like, but that still doesn't...

    Multiple Platforms Dead Island

    I thought the creative direction they took with this one was spot on. Sure, it's gory and sure it's controversial because of the child being zombified and the whole being tossed out of a window thing, but that is what makes me want to play it. As someone mentioned above, it seemed more...

    Who are you again?

    Yeah. There's this guy who works at a store out in this one town. My mom and I usually go there when we both get groceries. I recognize this guy who I think is a manager. I'm pretty sure he went to high school with me but I cannot remember his name. I think he recognizes me too, but we...

    Glasses

    Depends on the person and their overall appearance. Some people use glasses to their advantage and stylize them, matching it with their personality--whatever that may be. Some people just need glasses because they simply cannot see. Those people tend to be the "geeks" or what have you. In...

    Thanks. I guess I'm not popular enough in this cliched world to make that much of an impact.

    Serious Marriage

    Who cares what this broad wants to do? It's her life. Let her ruin it. She'll figure out it was a bad idea in six months to a year when they're going through the divorce proceedings. You shouldn't burden yourself with other people's issues if it doesn't really impact you in any significant...

    THERE IS A REMAKE OF FFVII COMING IN LATE 2012

    Lul, uhhh check the date on that article from last year. Even if this was real, I'd be skeptical. xD
