The British or the Americans?<br /><br />British like to think themselves more educated and like to ask such questions. I know this because I know a lot of Brits.

McMahon has made a fortune during his career but took 1st & 2nd mortgages plus other liens on his home! Should Trump save his home- what about the rest of America?<br /><br />I don&#039;t feel sorry for McMahon in the the least. He can just sell his mansion and live in a perfectly nice smaller home somewhere else. So, no I don&#039;t think Trump should bail him out. I don&#039;t think anyone who chooses such an ostentatious and elaborate lifestyle should be bailed...

I am filling toefl application and have difficulty understanding this question. I would like to if there is a difference between education and specialization.<br /><br />Education is the level of education you&#039;ve achieved, including what degrees earned, where you studied and the year you graduated.

Also, I think it would be useless on sociopaths as they have no feelings of remorse or guilt; they are usually cold and emotionless and their brain waves probably wouldn&#039;t betray them as liars on a polygraph (since they have no...

Baseball is long enough already and has already lost a lot of fans over the years. Replays would only make it less popular. I also think there are way too many football replays which slows the game and takes away the excitement.

I mean, I&#039;m sorry, but there&#039;s no way anyone can look thru the threads here and say that 90%+ are actually decent Q and A&#039;s.

And why?<br /><br />Good question. This is something I contemplate a lot. I&#039;ve gone back and forth, but the answer I usually come to is that I&#039;d rather have someone love me more than I love them. When I fall in love, I fall hard and often become obsessesed.

Is there any sort of medical/scientific term for such a thing happening?<br /><br />This happens to me especially in times of stress. It is truly terrifying. Basically, you&#039;re mind wakes up before your body (or the part that controls motor skills, thus the paralysis).

It should be done on rare occassions though. Outright spanking (the way many of us were spanked growing up) is just plain wrong and the woman should get in trouble for that.

I&#039;ve been craving that since this morning, but I will have to fantasize I&#039;m afraid.

But I&#039;d be really happy if they multiplied the deodorant ads by 100. The smell of B.O. almost makes me pass out and there seems to be way too many people who are skipping that little grooming step. I&#039;ll put up with any stupid commercials if...

Most of the time when questions that do not support Christianity are asked, the retort from some Christians is that "there's is the bible, go read it"!<br /><br />1. The Bible is a long and complicated book, so I guess Christians like to discuss various issues in it. I don&#039;t see any issues there. Haven&#039;t you ever discussed a confusing book? 2. Why do you give a shit? Let them believe what they want, you believe or not believe what you want.

It seems like nothing could possibly hurt so much and it&#039;s sheer torture. I remember feeling that way a few times, the first time in my twenties....

That is a terrible, terrible, terrible idea. You&#039;re essentially reducing those people to an income of $28,000. Barely enough to live on in many parts of this country. Certainly, where I live you would barely get by on that income. Why on earth would you endorse penalizing people who...

Right now, I&#039;d give him a 5 or 6. But oftentimes, he&#039;s just a 3. I give his audience a -3. They are worse than a canned laugh track.

Do you do this?<br /><br />Well, I used to do that...... in high school. As an adult, I just try to be candid and speak my mind, but I don&#039;t go to the trouble of trying to manufacture debates just for the sake of it.

Do you hate yourself for it or think it's a reasonable thing to do?<br /><br />I do make judgments. We all make judgments. It&#039;s human nature. If a person&#039;s place is really messy, it gives me an idea of what kind of person they are. That&#039;s not to say they&#039;re a bad person, they could be a wonderful person.... but I would also think they are probably...

Most of these people I try not to communicate with but I see their threads everywhere and I just cannot get over the level of self-absorption, conceit and ignorance I see displayed in their comments.

Wright's rants or President Clinton's...eh..."White House indiscretion"? What does the public response (or lack thereof) say about the American people?<br /><br />For me Rev. Wright&#039;s rants were more outrageous and disturbing and it bothers me that so many people in that church were cheering so loudly as he was saying some of the things he said. I think Wright is an insane, paranoid, hate mongering, narcissistic racist... but that&#039;s him. I...

It&#039;s a sensitive, but very serious issue and it takes guts to bring it up in a church on fathers days. Kudos to Barack.

I respect your views, please do the same for mine. I choose to be a fool for God, what if I'm right?<br /><br />I think the way you phrased your question -using the term &quot;anti-God&quot; reveals a little lack of respect for atheists and agnostics. I know plenty of people who fall into those categories and they never refer to themselves as &quot;anti-God&quot;. I&#039;m sure we&#039;d all love to...

Does anyone have any advice on how to get over this? Unfortunately, he told me this after I found out he may have terminal cancer, so I want to be supportive, yet I'm hurt/angry.<br /><br />When I read this, I kind of got the hunch that he is messing with your head. Maybe inventing the cancer in order to get him off the hook for cheating and guilt you into sticking around or something.

Or does it just sound unattractive or annoying to your ears?<br /><br />All the beats sound the same to me, so it doesn&#039;t seem very creative. Also, the lyrics are usually pretty low-class and unimaginative (almost always seem to be about some girl&#039;s body or graphic sex depictions) and they get too raunchy. Additionally, it seems that rap musicians...

I know it's beneficial for me to forgive him, but how do I go about doing this? Everytime I think of him I want him to suffer as they did.<br /><br />First of all, I don&#039;t know why you need to forgive him. This type of forgiveness (for extreme violations) is just some overrated and usually phony Oprah psycho-babble. Secondly, a person cannot forgive someone for a violation done to another.

If I tell on him, it will screw up his life hugely - and maybe get him fired - and I'll get his job (more money). Should I tell for my personal gain?<br /><br />Absolutely not. Live by the sword, die by the sword, know what I mean? These things always come back to haunt you (as they should). And besides, you&#039;ll have a reputation as being meddlesome and untrustworthy.

I don&#039;t think people are happier when those around them are unhappy. If that were true than we&#039;d surround ourselves with miserable people all the time. In reality,...
