Arranged marriage is barbaric
But at least people in the US get to choose who they marry. I remember reading something that was like, "In cultures that require an arranged marriage, there is a much lower divorce rate.. Yet a much higher suicide rate." Pretty interesting :P

Fiji Water, Is There A Difference?
The best two kinds of water (in my opinion :P) are as follow: - The tap water in my bathroom - The bottled (freezing cold) water in the soda machines at Great America (don't remember the brand, lol) =P~ I remember tasting the Figi water once, and I didn't really like it. Probably just my taste buds expressing their individuality though :P

Too many stickies
Yes, sometimes it seems like there are a lot of stickies, but I think they are all necessary. In response to Mercifull, if we delete the relationship sticky and direct people to other relationship-based forums, why shouldn't we do the same with threads about other video/computer games? If people start talking about WoW on Off-Topic, why shouldn't we tell them to beat it and find a WoW forum? If people post a news article, should we redirect them to a 'current events' forum? Relationships/boyfriends/girlfriends is a huge topic and I think the sticky is important. If people make their own thread for an important Youtube video link and provide a good start to a discussion, then we usually let the thread stay. The stickies keep the forum clean and discussion-based. I think that removing 80% of them would only cause a huge [bleep]e in spam and a decrease in productive discussions.

Favorite Music?
I think the concept of this thread is fine, but it definitely belongs in the Music and Movies forum. Before reposting, be sure to search the first few pages of the forum to make sure there isn't already a similar thread in existence.

Another great siggy You did a terrific job of displaying the "dreamlike" concept. The way the image seems sort of "far off" - the light colours in certain areas really emphasize that. The whole scene just looks so peaceful. Great job :) I love it.

Sorry, but I'm locking this due to the large amount of unnecessary flames. This thread would have been good if it hadn't turned into a flame war early on.

Ballet dancer [Please close.]
I think it looks great so far :) You've made a lot of progress since the first image! I am one of the few lovers of digital painting, so I'll keep my eye on this :wink:

Autumn... Oh it's mid winter already? darn.
Great concept and nicely created :) As runemesta said, great transition between the images! I know I wouldn't be able to make it look that seamless :-w I love the colours/lighting on the girl.

Do you have a cell phone? What kind is it? Do you like it?
I have a "Razr" and I hate it. I never really liked them - weird shape, lack of vibrant colours, it never tells me when I have a voicemail (I have to manually check it, the little icon doesn't come up. And same with text messages), etc. I only ever got it because my awesome, cheap phone, which I loved, kicked the bucket a few weeks ago so I got my dad's "hand-me-down."

Animal testing - right or wrong?
Can you substantiate that? Go to Google and type in: iams+testing. I think the very large number of animal testing results is enough to back it up. I had to write an English report on it. I don't remember the original website I went to, but here was one of the first Google results (unless you'd care to look yourself): http://www.uncaged.co.uk/iams.htm Small excerpt:

Animal testing - right or wrong?
Each to his own I suppose. I suppose you are a vegetarian? Strangely, I'm not. I've actually wanted to be, but I've grown up my whole live eating and loving things like cheeseburgers and salame sandwiches. It'd be impossible for me to take them out of my diet now :P Besides, if I decide to become a vegetarian, I really might as well campaign against lions killing antelope for food as well. I'm just more anti-society than anything: anti-government, anti-media, etc. Which leads me to not liking the human race very much, after seeing all the damage we do :P Which leads to my opinion above.. That's basically my philosophy of life in a nutshell. I could go on for hours :-#

Animal testing - right or wrong?
I'm against animal testing - even if it's for "good intentions." Example: Iams dog and cat food company purposely gets dogs and cats sick just so that they can find a cure. Although they have good intentions, a very large percentage of these dogs and cats die in the process, but suffer for a long time before that.. I have very extreme anti-society/advancement opinions, which makes me craft my second opinion: animals' lives are far more valuable than humans', in my extreme opinion :P
