If you think it's a dumb question then why would you even respond? I'm sorry I wasted your valuable time with my pointless rambling, but wouldn't you have felt a lot better if you had privately rolled your eyes and moved on? And you make it sound like I was uttering threats or stalking you...

I don't know what you mean by natural I guess... so yes, I'm unable to answer the vague question you posed to me. sentientsixpence-- are you going through every thread I post in and then giving a thumbs up to anyone whenever you feel like they 'got' me? It really does seem that way.

Well, I would have to ask you who you would rather invite to your house: a known sex offender who smokes meth all day, is known for random, unpredictable bursts of rage and who will hurt you til you cry before destroying most of your favorite possessions and then murdering you, or someone who is...

This is also why we are able to rationally justify any act we choose, isn't it? Do you think a child molester is doing a good thing if, as a direct result of his actions, one of a his victims goes on to help other victims of child molesters? We're talking about an act that has produced a lot...

I suppose it would depend on whether more good or more bad ultimately comes about from a specific action. If anyone considers destruction to be inherently bad, then just being a living human being is probably a bad thing... unless we're somehow preventing the rise of an even more destructive...

Even though I'm sure it's going to sound melodramatic, I'm not convinced that it's possible to do good things in the world... mostly because as a species (or more accurately as a species controlled by unbridled self-interest), we've long surpassed the point where we need to worry about having a...

It doesn't sound like you have a very good attitude towards what you were doing if you're calling it tedious... that doesn't mean you're incompetent or have a poor work ethic. Obviously if it's causing you an unbearable amount of stress then you shouldn't risk your health, but before quitting...

Sometimes the key to enjoying your work is less about the job itself and more about your attitude. One of the big differences between this generation and past generations is that in the past, doing a good job at whatever you were doing was reward enough... you could be a plumber who takes...

Please don't take this the wrong way, but how did a 22 year old get to be a career and academic counselor?

I'm going to be the guy who ruins it for you and tell you that you really shouldn't set your sights on just one thing and 'do what you love' isn't always going to work out for you. I'm not saying you shouldn't enjoy your work, but if you're into biology then there are all kinds of things...

I thought that as well at first, except part of the description including nurturing and a 'maternal' approach. I think that if a guy took a maternal approach to a heterosexual relationship the girl would think he was gay. Maybe he could get away with infantile, though.

I think that in public people want to project a certain image and the old-fashioned sense of 'men being in charge' just doesn't fly with the majority anymore... but if someone wants to be dominated sexually by a man in that way I always assume they're privately buying into the concepts they're...

I think a better title for this thread would be 'why doesn't anyone realize that muir is 100 percent right about everything?!' It's obvious that anything that isn't in line with what he thinks is a deception.

On the news they said that the US suspects that Assad will hide his chemical weapons on Russian ships to dodge the UN inspection teams... meanwhile Russia still doesn't want military intervention even if Syria doesn't surrender all of its weapons. Putin probably sold them the weapons and...

I think it's actually a relatively recent thing. Remember when Seinfeld was dating a 16 year old in the 90s? I don't think that it went over well, but he wasn't arrested or anything. I think when it comes down to it people are individuals and that means it's difficult to place definite...
