I disagree, though I believe in some financial inequality as motavation for sucess, the pay rates of the top 5% vs the average person are way to high. As also the payrates of the bottom 5% are way too low. Change that. Bottom 15%.

Let's give credit where credit is due though, at least he get me to quit prattling on like a rhesus monkey on Ritalin

Reading between lines not taking what is said plainly for granted is a funny entertainment...

Even IRL usually it seems, when discussing any matter, that some people is talking about something completely different... they may not be but they are just like some miles far away in "thinking distance"...

Some gents need heeded assistance from one hop to another... some just jump unconsciously to the equation solution, to "their" equation solution.

And some just enjoy the Sun, the birds, the dogs passing by, a chick from century to century, dancing like a beast and having a tap vermouth now and then and it's everything alrightee.

Nah, I know Metz to some degree. Sometime he's smart, sometimes he thinks he's smart, sometimes he's clueless, but he almost always believes what he says.

Mutually exclusive? Prease. At least the first category can experience the second category, while the second category...doesn't fully experience the first.

+1

Yep, Masta is a troll and rejoices in it, but he is honest about his opinions always and that has my respect.

Education vs. Experience? there's no such thing, there is something called Knowledge, it's Universal and Relative at the same time and the only thing that matters.

That and gentleness towards even rocks.

Everything is relative and subjective.

Everyone lives in their own bubble.

I probably have the most diverse experience going from an all-white country town and then living in southern California.

It only worked to enforce every stereotype (since southern California is where stereotypes come from, after all, since Hollywood sets the standard for everything)


All the poor blacks and mexicans have kids they can't afford to take care of and live off of welfare
and white people...mostly afford to pay for their own kids, with some exceptions, but either way - the kids are not planned.
asians usually don't have children

every woman wants kids. dogs are a placeholder for kids.

take a puppy into a store and watch the women hit on you

OMG HE HAS A PUPPY HE MUST BE GOOD WITH CHILDREN
HE SHOULD GET ME PREGNANT

... of course... anyone in the baby supplies industry is probably loathing the prospect of it.

Cam, while it's true that it SHOULD save money....... we're talking about people... and people are too $#@!ing stupid to use birth control properly as it is. They $#@! anyway, have kids, and bitch about the costs of diapers... when a pack of condoms 1/4th the price lasts twice as long.

I saw 3 of my best 5 friends from high school have oops babies. I never did... 'cause I always was smart enough to buy condoms... that and a girl I was hooking up with said that you get laid more if you come prepared....




As far as Prop 8 goes in the eyes of a strong conservative... I'm uncomfortable when I'm around a guy kissing another guy. I can't help it. It's just too different for me. But... how does my discomfort in ANY WAY give me the right to tell them they don't deserve the same benefits my wife and I enjoy? It doesn't. Period. Nobody should be able to say in good conscience that same-sex couples can't get married just because I don't agree with it.

The old fashioned person in me wishes a same-sex marriage could be called something other than marriage, simply on a definitions basis (to keep marriage as man-woman), but since I can't think of any name that would make sense.... it becomes a stupid desire anyway.

Here's a good question for you guys:


If a person is directly perpetuating a stereotype (i.e. - sagging jeans with a belt around the kneecaps), who's fault is it that the stereotype exists in the first place?

Go back eating donuts!

No sense of humour, these Germans.
