What Men Want in Dating JoeUser Forums

In a word: you. You are what men want. If you are talkative and opinionated, there are men who like that. If you are quiet and easy-going, there are men who like that. There are so many articles and conversations trying to figure out “what men want” (and “what women want”). They are all f’ing ridiculous. They seem to have the idea that all men want the same t

Reply to Capitalism is Racist in Politics JoeUser Forums

BS, to clarify one last time the point for you... In any culture or society (eg. capitalism) you need specific cultural capital to survive and succeed. The USA and Australia are not pure meritocracies as you would often have us believe. Nor is anywhere else. This should be taken into account when people make statements/judgments about people who are poor. BTW, why do you insist on resorting to insults BS? Dr Guy is a perfect example

Reply to Capitalism is Racist in Politics JoeUser Forums

Goodness, cacto, terrible isn't it: a less argumentative article that points out the flaws in capitalism while also acknowledging that these flaws are inherent to every system. No no, anyone who has a criticism of capitalism MUST be a lover of communism. However, cacto I'm afraid I disagree on one point. This article is in fact intended to apply worldwide, not just third-worldwide. OK, so I'm deleting the irrelevant comments. Ch

cacto, exactly. The title is to get traffic. But as usual (as I intimated with my 100th article), the JU Right just wanna get upset about the title. JillUser comes next closest to dealing with the issue. Yes, "Life Isn't Fair" was sort of the point. But this point applies to the Americans talking about Americans too. Really the point I made applies to every culture. Every culture values certain skills and gives no value to certain other skills

Capitalism is Racist in Politics JoeUser Forums

There are a lot of harsh things said on JU about people with little money or no job. People often say it’s because they’re lazy or stupid or other such ideas. The poor are poor because they’re stupid and lazy, is the conservatives’ cry. There are probably some cases where this is the case, but as far as I can see it’s far more complicated than this. There are plenty o

The Universe will sort it all out. Whatever happens will be what was meant to happen and you will find benefit in it. (My religion's way of saying "It's all part of God's plan").

Reply to Watch out USA in Just Hanging Out JoeUser Forums

There probaly are fat and rude Americans. They definitely do have a high level of obesity, and whenever you travel overseas, well let's just say you always know when there's an American within 100 metres and you know exactly what they think of everything they see. But I'm sure there are also plenty of Yank tourists I don't notice. Actually, I had a great time going to Carcasonne with a busload of Septic Tanks. It's like anywhere, you get your

Now explain why you think any of them are kooks. Although I think all three need to improve the way they make their points, is there not some validity in their comments? Secularism is definitely something that the fundamentalists rally against. The acceptance of hedonism in Western society is something that infuriates them. That doesn't mean you give in to them and become an Islamic state, but secularism is part of what the funda

Thanks Muggaz and Tex for your flattery. Well at first the thought "Hey I was in the dreams of a girl I'm not even going out with" seemed flattering, until I realised it was because you wished me dead..or at least my cyber-pseudonym dead.... Or is the dream implying that I am the killer? If I was killing Leonardo DiCaprio and everything he stands for, then I am flattered by the imagery. If it was killing his character, I don't know what to mak

Reply to Racial Profiling in War on Terror JoeUser Forums

My beef is that they';ve never done racial profiling on white kids who go to high schools and searched them for guns. They pretty much all seem to go on killing sprees those white kids. BTW Island Dog, how exactly does not offending a terrorist help terrorism? All it does is not piss them off as much as far as I can see. But you're right, it's a really good idea to piss off the terrorists. Next time I see someone with a gun I know I'll react b

This is my 100th article, so I thought I should do something spesh. Some of you will be aware that I, the Champ, recently went through a middle-aged crisis*, where I stopped writing about politics and started coming over all peaceful and at one with the world. But before I went on this wanky, peaceful path to enlightenment, I was a relatively popular blogger

Good work guys, it sounds like a worthwhile project, and one worth waiting for. Can I just ask, am I the only one who has lost some bits of their articles. My last one has somehow been cut off about a quarter of the way through.
