Just a simple question. Really based on how society is towards every culture, race, media, people in general. Almost everything. All I want is an honest opinion from you guys. Is society acting a total B with everything it sees and hears? I vote yes. Mainly, it's cause of what I see everyday. A lot of ignorance. People just don't think stuff through, anymore. It's almost a rarity to find a lot of smart people, in my opinion. So ya, my answer is yes. If you guys got anything to say, go right ahead ^^ |

EPIC MUCH. ...Oh, hello there. Eh, just scourging for a decent-to-good RP. If you wanna RP or would like help on background bios for characters...or anything on characters...don't be afraid to ask, heh. (May not have all the answers, just to let those who do ask me stuff, know, heh.) Will work for the sake of working. | |

I agree society has gotten on the slow track...I mean I can't personally say that I know what it was like 20/30 years ago...but I know it wasn't as messed up as it now.... |

Close you eyes, take a deep breath, and the ask yourself on simple question, "Is where I am where I should be?" I pick myself up from the fall to be knocked back down, though I know one day when I get back up there will be nothing left to knock me down. The question is simply this, "Will there be anything left of me?" Leave me the reins and I'll steer myself to infinty, I've sold my soul to darker side of divinty. I've prayed with the wicked and danced with the damned, but in the end it's all in your hand. Tell me how you lead the lamb astray, searching for somethign in the shadow of the day. I sang, I danced, and laughed, and played. Broken and beaten as my spirit would fade. take my gun, take my knife, but please if you could only just spare me my life? I wasted my time and mispronounced the line, you sold away my soul on the edge of a dime. <-------( random ryhming I just made up of the top of my head. ) Father touched you with the hand of god. He's gripping tighter saying, "You will burn in hell they say, you will burn in hell!" | |

Yes. I vote yes. People suck. -I hate the people who make fun of you because you are fat. -I hate the people who make fun of you because you are anorexic. -I hate the people who make fun of you because you have acne. -I hate the people who discriminate you because you are bi or gay. -I hate the stupid teenagers who say they are "engaged" when they've only been going out with their mate for 2 weeks. -I hate the spoiled brats who go mental because they got a blue car for their birthday when they wanted red; AKA, the spoiled brats who can't be grateful for what they got. -I hate the people who think it's funny to see other people going through depression. -I hate the people who use stereotypes to play AGAINST you. -I hate the people who won't date you just because you aren't pretty or handsome. -I hate the stupid morons who make fun of you because you are smart and use bigger words. Well, for one thing, I'd rather be smart and still living, than have no knowledge what so ever and be dead already, dumb---. -I hate the stupid cowards who just stand there and watch when you are having trouble. -I hate everybody. If you prove yourself to be a smart, worthy human being, then I don't hate you, which most of you have proven to be. Yeah, I am very hateful. Yeah, I complain, and I can -----, just like everyone else does. Deal with it. But, anyways, that should explain how much I think society is bad. This is why I feel so very different at school, thus I seclude myself, even from friends, because there is only one person in my life outside of the Internet that truly and actually understands me, will always care for me and be a true friend, and THAT would be Spooky. Friends at school will never prove themselves to be, or ANYone else for THAT matter besides teachers and adults in a school really, to me, that they are a loyal and trustworthy friend full of patience, care, and understanding. |

Yes, I can't stand modern society, and how intolerant and ignorant it can be and the Internet has unfortunately became a big boon on this problem as well since it has its own "insult trends" (such as the whole "anti-emo insult trend" going on lately). Its irritating to see people rather hate and discriminate and insult rather than accept, try to understand, and whatnot. We have WAY too many close-minded people in todays society... Plus, it seems like people don't want to learn these days and this would also help our problems in society ALLOT as well since the more people know about other's differences, the more accepting we will be of them. Infact, I've been insulted in just about every single form, because I am very, very different from what is viewed as "normal" in society. Just wish people would be more understanding... |

Well, from living near Ohio, I can definitely agree with that. Most people here are very close minded, and there's allot of bigots here too (which includes my father >_<). This area is in the middle of what some would call the "Bible Belt" (or areas with very heavy religious influence), so I am not surprised at all with their anti-homosexual views. But I don't understand why homosexuals shouldn't be allowed to be together and have marriage. I see absolutely nothing wrong with it, if their in a great relationship, they should have the right like any other couple to have a marry and have a wedding. But religious influence prevents this, but we need to get away from that influence. Things change and we have adapted to that, which includes religion. Obviously we aren't murdering family members for not being Christian (which the "Old Testament" says to do), so why are we still hating people for being homosexual? Especially since their understanding of it 2,000 years ago is EXTREMELY different than our understanding today (such as we know its a mental difference for vast majority of homosexuals and bisexuals). I am not trying to insult religion, I just don't want to see it becoming enforced as law, which is what were seeing with these homosexual marriage bans...
Unfortunately, way too few >_<. |

Yeah I live in Ohio...I know what you mean..I have one good friend I can really trust just saying I'm bi...This place sucks...you know if you look at the bible from a logical perspective...some of his godly doings and generosies...don't seem so grand...I'd go further into detail but that'd start a flame war I'm sure... |

Yea, I live in Northern Kentucky, about 10 miles from Cincinnati, Ohio. That's the problem too, people cherry pick the Christian Bible instead of reading the whole thing. If they did, they would see some violent quotes with genocide, murder, death, etc. But so does the Jewish Torrah and ESPECIALLY the Islamic Qu'ran. Yes, it might be start a "flame war" but THAT right there is a issue with society as well, as there's some subjects some people feel that they don't want to question, doubt and debate and our society has somehow unanimously agreed that religion is one of these even though I feel ALL issues and topics should be openly debatable. I also feel religion is part of our society's influence so it should be discussed here along with any other society topic. |

I agree religion should be discussed, but I don't personally read much of the bible...although in the story of Job...god like killed all his children...how the **** is that fair!? I mean seriously...those kids didn't deserve to die...not even right... Well I wouldn't mind debating it flame war or no, but I dun feel like getting banned so I'm trying to let it go for the moment...I like the site, and don't want banned over close minded religious stuff... |

If there's one thing I understand about people, is that they mainly listen to how the media portrays people. I mean, the media is a bit good, but just a bunch of nosy-A people, I swear. Man, when I was younger, I'd always listen to the media, trying to fit in with society and stuff. Get the latest CD, new clothes, styles and such. Now that I'm 17, everything changed for me. Screw you, media. You just made things worse for people and for my friends out there. It sucks, bad. I'm just happy for those who still have common sense. Maybe I'll give 'em a hug, next time I see someone who has this trait *shrugs*. But for real, next time I see an ignorant person talking or doing some real jackass stuff, I'm gonna beat 'em, til they can't talk no more. |

I doubt you would and I would find it very wrong if you did get banned over that reason. Everyone has an opinion and voice, you should be allowed to openly voice yours like anyone else. That's a issue too, some people in society like to try to silence other's opinions and ideas from being heard, which we sometimes even see in the media...
Yea, the media is a HUGE, HUGE factor in the way society is. It pretty much helps set these stereotypes and trends in society and people, in almost a sheep-like fasion, have to try to "fit in" to one of these stereotypes or trends. Personally, I feel people should follow what they enjoy, what they want to wear, what they want to do, etc. I never cared for steriotypes and trends, infact, I hate steriotypes and can't stand trends... |

well I know it's not fair, but life gets that way...you just learn to deal with it...in my house my dad quite literally yells "LALALALALALA!!!" like a three year old in arguments so he doesn't have to hear our side of things.... and the media is bad about all that..I mean everytime I look in the media it basically says " Drugs and sex good, being an individual bad" |
