"Do you think Donald Trump is a publicity whore or is he sincere"? your thoughts? He is a roundheels hoor no doubt. He does it so people will pay attention to him. Other hoors do it for the money. He has money but he still prostitutes himself wantonly and promiscuously. You can certainly tell by the company he keeps how desperate he is for attention! Wonder what his wife and children think of him? Are they humiliated/embarrassed or do they not give a dam*? :(

Big wedding,small wedding, what wedding ,say what:-)? My first one was large. A couple of hundred people. Dinner for everyone. A band played. The marriage lasted 6 years. So much for 'traditional'!

Everything else is packaging and discardable! :)

Why are some men so sensitive on this site when answering questions that are OBVIOUSLY jokes? Here's the problem with that Araya...and I'm a gal as you know. Some of us don't always know when others are joking. My default mode is serious. I also don't lie. Therefore when I see something that appears to be serious I respond in like kind. So you may always know when your leg is being pulled but that isn't true for everyone. You need to cut us some slack! :)

Your boss said he would give you a huge raise for a creative reason for wanting one. What would you say? If I leave it will take 3 newbies to replace me. Your choice. Give me a huge raise or replace me with 3 novice newbies who have no clue how we do things here and then you will have the learning curve to deal with...training them. Will they stay or go? Meanwhile if they go you get to do it all over again. Choose wisely. You will have to live with it! :)

But war...well sometimes everyone loses more in a war than can ever be gained.It's a crapshoot Araya. If you're...

You have to speak the same language and understand the words you use and have them mean the same thing to you as they do to your close friends. They don't misunderstand you because they are coming from the same place as you are so they understand. To understand you have to be on the same level of communication.

When you desperately need something, do you provoke people to bring out the better in them? If you provoke people that brings the worst out in them, not the best. If I desperately need something I try to handle it myself so I don't burden/disturb others. Everyone has his/her own problems. But if I can't do it myself and I do need help I will ask for it. I'm not too proud to admit my inadequacies. :)

Is the sense of enlightenment a delusion? No. Lightbulbs go on all the time. However it is transitory, temporary and case by case.

Is the reason people get addicted to drugs, weed and alcohol because it makes them feel enlightened? If so, are they really enlightened? I have never personally experienced a physical addiction Mark but I think those who get addicted are in some kind of pain emotionally or psychologically and the substance they choose to use makes the pain go away temporarily. When they're drunk or high they don't feel and it is numbing which is preferable to hurting. :)

Do you agree on Einstein's view of education in 1949. In this regard, socialism does not sound bad, or? Please, see description... I have only one comment on this whitehair...'.an exaggerated competitive attitude is inculcated into the student...'. No that is not so. I have never been competitive ever. No such thing was inculcated or suggested or demanded or insisted upon. I reject competition out of hand. I have no interest whatsoever in it. My only true competitor is me. Am I better today than I was last year? That's it....

I guess some people are extra good at finding slights where none exist and in so doing actually create them all by themselves. So they really don't need anyone at all to do it...

If someone doesn't trust you is the fault with them or with you? Some people distrust everyone. Usually they're the ones who are untrustworthy! They judge others by who they are and if they're not so hot that's how they see the world...not so hot. Some folks lie to everyone. Dealer's choice Mark. You takes your pick. Either/or...neither/nor! Happy Tuesday! :)

We are expected to report spam, offensive, duplicate and nonsense questions. Isn't that how the nazis started? Aarrgghh! Oy vey! Mazeltov! Yom Kippur too! So how are ya doin' Om? Doing well I hope? In answer to your question...nope. Hitler was insane. AB staff is not..Joel, the originator of AB was quite brilliant and not insane..nor are Moderators, CL's or AB members. So nothing is remotely analogous therefore because with insanity as the base you get nazis. With logical options as a base you get a...

A new survey says... A new survey says..... stop paying attention to surveys. They're all bogus! They're like polls...those are bogus too. They tell you what you want to hear and truth has nothing to do with it. Besides even if true it is only true for that instant in time. People change their minds 24/7. What was true for you two hours ago may be not be so now! :)

Answer to:
When someone says "What you see is what you get"(as is often said of me)..What does that really mean? You don't lie for starters. You don't wear masks, you don't pretend, you are not full of yourself. You are down-to-earth, accessible and direct. You do not backstab, bully or sneak around being duplicitous as some on AB do. We call them two-faced. You are not. You are simply you! :) Happy Tuesday to thee yanggui zi! :)

Is Mitt Romney a \"closet liberal?\" His Ma. health care law will be interesting debate at best with Pres. Obama! I think Romney has more liberal leanings than he dares admit so he, like any other chameleon changes appearance to suit the surrounding just so he can survive. He did what was needed to be done in Massachusetts to win. If he does the same thing here in the General Election and follows through as prez then he will be a much better president than any of his GOP rivals and probably alienate the...

Why do so many people on the internet think that religion is so important that it needs to be a dividing line in defining human beings? It is natural Mark. I'm a progressive liberal dem and chances are I won't be tight buddies with an extreme right-wing conservative. I'm also an old lady of 74-1/2 so chances are I'm not going to be buddies with a 14 year old. I'm not wealthy so being friends with a billionaire is unlikely but being friends with those who have worked their butts off their entire lives is something to which and...

Anyway loyalty is my middle name and being as how I worked for a couple who owned 7 McDonald's restaurants for 12 years I gotta go with the McNuggets and say they're deliciouser even though I've never even heard of the McBites if in fact they do exist! :)

Answer to:
What was that thing you wanted so badly and now you don't want it anymore? I don't remember what that might have been and I was a very young child if it ever happened. Wanting something 'so badly' is not my nature. I've learned to pace myself...expect the best but be prepared for the worst. That way your feet are always on the ground and you never get too high up or too low down! Happy Monday Doc Psy! :)

Have you ever been underestimated & has it inspired you to do great or inspirational things? Yes I have and no it never inspires me.... it ticks me off. Usually those who arrogantly believe they have a superior intellect flaunt their "brilliance" by patronizing others, being condescending and generally assuming everyone is beneath them. Nothing to inspire me there. The more patronizing and supercilious they are, the more ticked off I get! I either ignore them entirely or I start...

Answer to:
Do you think eavesdropping on other people's conversations should be encouraged? I do not. I think eavesdroppers never eavesdrop for positive reasons or to enhance the lives of others. They usually do it to get 'dirt' on folks so they can use it against them. Wiretapping...sending in a mole...espionage. I'm anti all of it. It is dishonorable and disgusting. Just my opinion. I never ever went through anyone's pockets or drawers or cupboards or opened anyone's mail in my...

Do you think that being told something's off-limits only makes it more attractive? For me personally no. Others however take it as a personal challenge to find out. I follow the rules. If I'm told it is 'off limits' I move on. Now if it is something affecting me personally or those I know I might react differently. I don't look for ways to invade areas where I'm not welcome. That seems to me to be counterproductive and a complete waste of my time! :)

Is it fair to hit parents with harder fines for taking their kids out of school? Say what? You're kidding aren't you? Since when does any teacher have authority/jurisdiction over parental decisionmaking? And the parents tolerate it? Is this any school? Is there no recourse for you? I'd sue them for having the nerve to try extortion to keep me from doing whatever I choose to do vis a vis my children's education. How dare they? :(

Why do people living outside Major Cities have such Liberal ' turn the other cheek' opinions of inner city problems not affecting THEM?? I think you're confused . The "turn the other cheek" and ignore and pay no attention folks are the Conservatives. They believe in taking of yourself, screw everyone else, whatever doesn't affect them they don't care about. So you misspoke. No big deal. Politicians do it all the time...they also lie a lot. Happy Sunday NWM! :)

Broken hearts are what give us strength and understanding and compassion - Agree or disagree? No anil. Broken hearts make you angry, disappointed, sad, distrustful and miserable. There is nothing positive about experiencing a broken heart. They don't make you stronger they make you wary, cautious, scared. They don't provide understanding because you never can understand why it happened. Happy Sunday! :)
