I won\'t burn danish flags. However, I do have one question, how is the above quoted a bad thing.

I guess I\'ll jump on the bandwagon, now that it seems to be grinding to a halt.

1. The word \"Owned\" or any variations such as \"Al capowned\" \"Pwned\" or \"Ownage\". Seriously, come up with a new catch phrase; this ones been here since the Quake days.
 
 Hmm, I think that\'s the only thing I really hate. I don\'t really hate any people of any kind. Even racists. When you hate racists, and you immediately hold any negative sentiments against them without getting to know why they act that way, don\'t you yourself begin discriminating?

I\'m not going to go off on a wild tangent about love and equality but I will say this: Everyone has a reason for feeling a certain way. Not everyone is a brainless creep hellbent on world domination. If you don\'t give someone a chance to explain themselves, why are you even talking to them?

But yeah, the word owned is the only thing I really hate. And I really don\'t even hate it that much.

Ooh wait.

2. Kiern. Well not really, it\'s just funny to poke and prod him.

3. Broccoli. Because it\'s so hard to spell. Actually Scratch it. The person who gave broccoli it\'s english name. That\'s better. Wait. I\'ve contradicted myself. Now I have to do research on the guy who invented the word broccoli. Drats, being so open minded is a terrible strain on the google searching.  X(

1. any kind of meat
2. uv-mapping
3. my portuguese teacher (really, she\'s the devil... makes fun of us if we get an answer wrong... etc -.-\')

I\'m a pretty optomistic person, but I\'m sorry, I live in america, try to follow politics, and I\'d like to add something for this \"I hate america because of the president\" guy.

First of all you must understand how america\'s government works. They are really good at making you believe yur free when you\'re actually not. For instance, it may look like we can \"vote\" for our next president, but actually, we can only vote for one of three people who have been selected for us; a republican, a democrat, and an independant (although as far as I\'ve seen, nobody ever knows who the independant actually is, and so it seems like we only have a choice between the republican and the democrat).

Now, what most people from other countries don\'t realize, is that the majrity of the people in the US voted for Kerry, the democrat. But see, every state is worth a number of \"points\" and Bush just happened to win over those states worth more points. And in fact, it only came down to one state to change the stakes, because it was the closest run we\'ve had in a log time.

Sorry for dragging this on...^_^

Have a good day everyone!

oh yeah:
1. addicts
2. religion (the practice not the history)
3. the goverment (no, I\'m not an anarchist)

Actually, Bush lost both elections.  The first time, the election results were overruled by the Republican-controlled Supreme Court, and they appointed Bush.  The second time, the electronic voting booths were rigged to show Bush as a winner.

*agrees with first statement*

I think the rigging may be an opinion though *frowns* I can\'t remember them ever proving that, but I\'m not sure.

Yay, someone who actually understands why our country sucks.

-shifty glance-

But yes, our foreign policy does suck.

1 very religious people (be an individual)
2 people who don\'t eat meat (my dad is a butcher   and it\'s completely natural)
3 people who can\'t spell, I\'m a real spelling freak.

About the \"I hate America\" issue:
I don\'t hate the US, but I really wouldn\'t like to live there, because:

1 Education there is really bad compared to Europe,
Bush even proposed in his State of the Union to cut down on the education expenses to increase the defense expenses! Wow, that\'ll really do the US good...
2 The huge and enormous murder rate, watch Bowling for Columbine for more info. Really, in the 17 years that I live I can only think of 1 guy being killed in my region.
3 Foreign policy, just look at Bush\'s response to Europe\'s Galileo project:

europe: Yes! We\'re going to build an alternative to the GPS system!
bush: I want to control it.
europe: eh, what!?
bush: Terrorist might abuse it, so I want to be able to shut it down whenever I feel like it.
europe: Are you retarded?
bush: yes, now may I control it?
europe: like, NO!
bush: those europeans  X(

Hi

To Karyuu:
1. Nuuu! It\'s a murder.
2. Hmm, should this be read as chemistry or water? Or both? :)

To Lordbug:
2. UV-mapping. \\o/ I\'ve provided lodging for many pre-owned uv-mapping tasks. They\'re decent folk once you get to know them. *whispers secretly* Least Squares Conforming Map.

*edits*

To ThomPhoenix: Well hello there Karyuu. Anyway, somebody may be afraid of water. Not everyone can swim for example. I was interested because I used to love chemistry. I still have a poster of periodic table of the elements on my wall. :)

[ThomPhoenix]

Water ofcourse, she obviously means that the cat in her avatar doesn\'t like it

You know, this all depends on where you live.  Of all the places I go to regularly, none of this is true.  Education is great, the schools are very competitive, and everyone can generally spell well.  As far as murder goes, where I am currently living in Texas, I can\'t remember a murder in the last few years.  And my previous home I\'m pretty sure there was NEVER a murder.  Just use common sense (which I hope you would anyways), don\'t go in the bad part of town if there is one, etc..and you have absolutely nothing to fear.  In fact probably less, depending on your age and gender.  I go all over the place in Texas, and have never ran into any real trouble.

Unfortunately people like to listen to biased statistics that wouldn\'t effect you if you actually came here, or listen to the television.
