"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Hm, is it bad when I read "ex" in a post I completely ignore it unless posts continue to reference it and wonder "why are we still discussing this!?" No Noxx. The only people you should live with are family, friends, and your fiance. The only "ex'es" you should go back to are the ones printed on bottles. A man or woman cannot be trusted enough for a romantic relationship after a break up. Hence the breakup.

Is it HP? Sorry, I just hate HPs. Had so many problems with them. OP: Facebook quote statuses. Why doesn't anyone use quotation marks anymore? It'll help a lot whether or not I should call the sucide hotline on you if you say Life is a dispair instead of "Life is a dispair".

Society and Nudity
Violence is just an extension of our competitiveness, which we possess naturally: the want to exceed, to surpass our opponents. Competition doesn't have to be violent, like films where the hero and anti-hero have to outwit each other, but violence is just an easier form to express. I do agree that violence is played too much sometimes, but it's a lot more logically than sex. Sex isn't competitive, it doesn't solve a problem or end a crisis. In fact, most of the times it makes more problems. There are no ideals with sex, you cannot defeat a villain with sex or fight for freedom with sex. The only goal in sex is to please the character's biological need: normally you shouldn't care about the sexual needs of others, why care about the character's? All sex does is bring in viewers and spice up just enough controversy to get attention (e.g. nearly every trailer in the damn world. Sherlock Homes, crime detective? Show a clip of sex. The life of Emperor Napoleon? Show a clip of sex. Construction of the Hoover Dam? Show a clip of sex. It's totally unrelated to the main plot). Also lets be honest, that's why sex is on TV. It occasionally provides advancement to the plot but that can be suggested and not shown. It's done because every producer wants more viewers so they'll add an unnecessary sex scene. It'll be overkill. Unnecessary overkill at that.

As much as I don't want censorship, I'm glad sexualized images are not shown on TV. It would be done to such an overkill.

I've never met anybody who likes dirty public restrooms. Yet the majority are disgustingly dirty. Why, god damnit.

Perhaps he is Amish, catching up to the world. It'll get worse when you hit the later 2000s, trust me. :lol:

At the risk of sounding like an old man, I don't trust GPS systems. Where im living it's all still new to me and in a busy metropolitan area. I much prefer the old book maps over a GPS because I can map easily in my mind (yay for mental retardedness/Synesthesia) and usually when I use a GPS it goes "Turn righ- next turn in 'x' meters" Don't use the GPS as a navigator, use it as a (digital) map. In my GPS you can turn off all navigation features and leave yourself a map, tis what I do. I used to be the family navigator and prided myself in knowing the way, so I hate being told where/what to do. I would be using the good old Thomas Guides (iconic California paper map company) but they died out years ago. So none of the ones I have show all the new sprawl I deliver to. Also keep in mind I hated the concept of a GPS for years. But paper maps are just getting rarer in these parts - city street ones near impossible to find.. :sad:

Talking about touchscreens and driving, I got a GPS today and I absolutely love it. This is like the fifth technological improvement I've been neglecting, but loved it after purchasing it. Maybe I should loosen my grudges on "unreliable new technology". I sound like an old man when I'm only 20!

Far Cry is like Skyrim with guns/Fallout? Might give it a shot. So after many months of unemployment I got a job as a pizza delivery driver. I start tomorrow. Who needs resumes, references, or actual qualifications when you got friends? :wall:
