@KitFox: re your 5 start link. That made me all depressed last week because it wasn't funny because it there's no parody because it is 'how things really are'.
Also, I blew a half hour looking through the rest. None of which were as good.
SCAM ALERT. If a man comes to your front door and asks you to show him your breasts, do not show him your breasts. This is a scam and he actually wants you to show him your breasts.
i really wish i could believe Sam Harris wasn't playing some big practical joke on everyone with the meditation thing
but when i concentrate on my breath for a while... i just feel like me, concentrating on my breath
i've conducted his meditation experiment in my own mind and got no positive results... unless you say it has to be for days, or weeks, or something
and that's the trouble with meditation. with weight training, there are guaranteed results. with meditation, one is told that one can have an "epiphany" after days, weeks, or maybe never. so it sure feels like a waste of time.
i'd find it easier to tame the shrew than the mind
as i've never been in a proper relationship, i have to ask.... how does that work? does the woman always just finish herself off? synchronous orgasms seem unlikely
It's the feeling you get when someone has been "gimmegimmegimme" and you give, and they roll over and fall asleep, forgetting your name if they ever knew it, because you are unimportant, only the thing they wanted was important.
@KitFox you should have some sympathy, though. you should imagine yourself being a relatively unattractive female, and getting zero attention. you should also imagine yourself lacking confidence, and feeling that no men are ever interested, nor being able to get anywhere. imagine how you might feel about men in general, especially if any time you brought it up, people wished you'd just shut up.
@JohanLarsson Yeah, there was a study. I remember it. The theory was that the expectations were different, and so they were more successful at working things out.
@JohanLarsson Yeah, if you don;t know any better and are convinced that complaining will shame your family, you are relatively likely to say it;s great.
@KitFox Maybe, but building things on raw attraction is a pretty weak foundation. Sure it is perfect for the first two weeks but after that it is pretty meh.
@JohanLarsson you're nothing like the Danish programmer guy i used to work in the same company with (and whose whinging probably got me fired). he hated my correcting his English :-)
@Robusto well it does seem like an odd coincidence. a couple of days after officiial support dropped, the thing just reset suddenly. it wouldn't boot, reset before the desktop came up
after a brief bluescreen about some windows subsystem error
I Googled this question as I too am often hearing people say “I’m, not for sure”. I am a 56 year old African American female from the South and I do not believe people speaking this way lends to their race, age or region. I simply think it is a lack of grammatical knowledge. I also agree that ...
I was saying that most of the Southerners I know use "ya" and not "y'all" for singular, and that means Carolina because those are the Southerners I know.
I fell afoul of a lifer at my last company when I schooled him on shit he should have already known — like that braces don't create scope in JavaScript.
I'm sorry. Let me be more specific. I will feel better if I can complain and gripe and have things not work right now. I do appreciate that you are trying to help though.
