It's so stupid. People are so stupid. I hope they're joking. Stories like this happen all day every single day. But we just haven't heard about them because the news media hasn't thought that they were particularly sensational stories that people are going to care about, and the news only wants to give us the things that guarantee them ratings, like Kim Kardashians meltdown!

But after the Miami incident, and the buzz that generated around that whole incident, now we're seeing every news station around the country try to capitalize on the current hype of "canniablistic" crimes, and eventually, once the hype dies down, and everyone steps back into reality from fearing a zombie apocalypse, we're going to see the news media reporting about Britney Spears' weight gain again. God damn it.

Hence the reason I do not watch the news. Hell, I dont even watch the weather.

Americans panic easily.

C'mon reptile. You can pull through little buddy.

Zombies?

Then there's no right anwser. It depends on your level of comfort and where you go. You see, a very low maintenance person could pretty much go and beg on the street or working min, wage a few hours a week and be "fine".
Also, if you go to Est-Europe, your dollar will not last as long as in India and what not, so, even within your country it might defer.


On another subject, the dumbass is still a dumbass from what I see.

I mean in general. Anything related to diseases or viruses sends americans in a panic. I remember that whole freak out about bird flu. Then there was that panic about H1N1.

And now people are getting worked up about cannibal attacks. I can't say I'm surprised about it.

Constructive criticism: the font you chose isn't the most reader friendly.

Other than being creeped by having sex explained though a story about unicorns, kitties, donkeys, and tigers, I didn't quite understand your stance on abortion because this line read to me like a jumbled mess -- "Aborting the kid after having unprotected sex and not caring but don’t want a kid in the life yet is something that is not even tolerable."

I've been in the heat of the moment where you're sexual urges overcome your logical thought process to use protection. I can understand how people make that mistake once or twice, especially with impaired judgment. But I don't understand how people make a habit out of that kind of lifestyle.

The only reason I didn't understand the line that I pointed out is because it seems like an incomplete broken sentence fragment.

I understand your view on the issue now. Mine differs. I think it should be up to each individual woman whether or not she wants to carry her child to full term. It's her body. And nobody should be able to govern what she does with it.
I do not think a woman should be forced to go through pregnancy and raise a child for the rest of her life (or even give up her child to adoption) just as a punishment. I think it's a terrible thing to view pregnancy as a punishment.
If some mother is making the wrong decisions on how to prevent an unwanted pregnancy, I definitely don't want her having kids and raising them with her values.
By giving women the option of an abortion only if they have been raped seems like it's going to cause a lot of scared women to falsely accuse men of rape in order to go through with their abortions.
If they don't do that, but still wish to have an abortion, many of them are going to have to go through terrifying and unsafe basement type of procedures to get their abortions if they do not have the legal system on their side.
It always surprises me to see when people seem to care more about the rights of an unborn child than the rights of a living woman. I am pro-choice. And I think this sums up my feelings on the subject.

Ermac won the battle you sons of bitches. I'm a happy person.

Just found out a director I worked with in LA (he was also in the Michelangelo costume in TMNT2) knows Richard Divizio and Ho-Sung Pak, and has them on Facebook. 6 degrees of separation rocks!
I actually met the actor who played Kano in the MK Legacy series, so it's just a nice theme.

Nice. One of my friends is a programmer and is currently working for Stieg Hedlund, the designer for Diablo II. Yes, I am extremely jealous. Other than that, I don't know anyone famous or anyone that knows anyone famous.

this was a night to remember

Just wrote Ed Boon a "thank you" message on Facebook. I expect no reply, but considering the first video game I ever fell in love with was Mortal Kombat, I had to thank him. I can safely say this guy's video game started me on the path that I'm walking today.

Wow. First it was drugs, then there was abortion talk?

Quite the controversial crowd.

There are no barriers we won't cross! Let's discuss transgendered people!

I like to see other people's views on controversial themes, since I never really could have these conversations with anyone I know... except when finally meeting my boyfriend.

Their conversations normally consists of Harry Potter and random things that don't seem to even be controversial.

I remember back during the eighth grade, my best friend at the time and some other girl and I were in a group together and our topic was gun control. I was against it while those two were for it. What ended up happening was that they hardly had an argument to use against me on why they were for guns. I mean, because Harry Potter and Gothic culture was more of a concern of them rather than talking about controversial stuff, I won the debate, and they had a failing grade due to having little to no kind of support, while I had at least 13 note cards to prepare myself with.

Also, talking to people I don't know always gives out an interesting discussion. Despite that not too many would rather want to talk about these kinds of things, I do... at times... And I just wanted to know what people thought about the situation I heard from my boyfriend and their view about abortion. If it's too controversial, or not really something to talk about, okay then!

That and I don't mind transgendered people whatsoever.

On the subject of transgender people.

I have no strong feelings one way or the other.

Wow. People actually jumped into that. It was more or less a satirical suggestion after we were deemed controversial, but I'll give my opinion.

I have no issue with what someone wants to do with their body, because I believe in "be what you wanna be" unless that happens to be a serial rapist/murderer or something sick like that.

That said, if I can, I'll be avoiding having sex with one. I acknowledge the fact that I'm wired a certain way and I'll be uncomfortable with myself if I were to knowingly do so. I'll be double checking those ring fingers when I hit on the ladies at the bar.

Sometimes I really hate being Irish. We're such a lazy shower of bastards in this country, it's unreal. That or else we're clearly masochistic. People tend to think "oh the fighting Irish" but we're far from it, we're fools when it comes to our political system, and lethargic ones at that.

One word I have to say about transgendered people...



PINGAS!!!!

I think I was eight when I saw my first transgendered man. He was working at a video store in a mall (long ago when that mall was actually COOL). He wasn't really full transgendered though. He had long painted fingernails, he had boobs, but his face was hardly shaven and he went by the name of Michael. But he did have some feminine features too such as wearing makeup and his hair did have some barrettes in it... and girl-ish earrings. He also had a dress on too.

Anyways, as the little girl that I was, I held my question after we left and I asked my mom, "Mom, why was that guy wearing a dress?" And my mother explained it that an eight year old would understand.

To this day, I have no problem with what people do with themselves. If a girl wants to dress up as a guy, do it. If a guy wants to dress up as a girl, do it! I really have no issue with what people do with themselves at all.

My face got fat...
