I have lost all forms of hope

Them's high maintenance dames.

 

Oh, yes, Scataphungus, do tell us all about hatred.

 

Your post brought back memories from my childhood. I was fortunate to have many male role models in my life with different backgrounds and professions. As a kid spending time with them, these men made similar remarks about how life is changing from what it used to be.

I didn't have a clue about the message they were trying to get across, but now I'm their age, they are gone and I understand those conversations.

Maybe some of them lost hope with the changing world but mine was just begining with little background into their former life.

Change with the world rather than focus on what was and never will be again. Somtimes I'd like to imagine I was born yesterday so I won't be burdened with the "way it was".

The "way it was" comes in handy sometimes, though.

ps. one story I enjoyed from the past is when my uncles would tell me, there were fewer traffic lights, or the lights were never red at night and how they could "make time" wherever they were going at night. A fast car, cops couldn't catch them, 2 way radio's were for shid( or somthing like that), no harm no foul, must've been fun.

 

The world is futile! Get over it. If you need a second opinion, your spelling and grammar sucks too...

BTW, I'm old and you are a very good reminder that I have to trade well or die!!

I've said it many times here on ET, Trade Well or Die Folks...

 

Trade currencies.

Or.... take the profits from CL and offset the necessary evil by feeding the hungry and clothing the ragged.

Or..... trade stocks that have a eco-friendly track record.

Every young person believes that things suck. You havent lived long enuf and because you are rich by world standards you are bored and lack stimulus in your life.

Fight the war on drugs.
Be a volunteer firefighter or paramedic.

You want to feel good? Give your life some meaning and fight back. But above all, please remember.....whining is for women and children.

 

Porn sites have a >3% infection rate. Probably an acceptable rate.

( Imo, google images is a land mine of virus)


Here's a few celebrity stats: with some as high as 50%

Celebrity
1 Jessica Biel
– Major buzz about her figure and high-profile relationship with Justin
Timberlake makes Jessica Biel an easy target for spammers and hackers.
When “Jessica Biel screensavers” was searched, almost half of the sites
were identified as containing malicious downloads with spyware, adware
and potential viruses.
2 Beyoncé
– Beyonce tops the MTV Video Music Award nominee list and McAfee’s
results as the most frequent, highly-ranked celebrity. Inputting
“Beyoncé ringtones” into a search engine yielded a dangerous Web site
linking to a distributor of adware and spyware.
3 Jennifer Aniston
– Hollywood’s favorite leading lady should be searched with caution.
More than 40% of the Google search results for “Jennifer Aniston
screensavers” contained nasty viruses, including one called the
“FunLove virus.”
4 Tom Brady
– The New England Patriot seems to attract many fans who want a free
download of the athlete in action, but not the Trojan that comes with
it, as identified by McAfee SiteAdvisor technology.
5 Jessica Simpson –
Jessica Simpson is as dangerous to search online as she is famous.
Searching for “Jessica Simpson videos” can mislead unsuspecting surfers
to sites with potentially damaging downloads.
6 Gisele Bundchen
– The world’s highest-paid supermodel is a popular target for
cybercriminals. A search for “Gisele Bundchen photos” can direct users
to red-ranked sites that breached browser security in McAfee’s tests.
7 Miley Cyrus
– Cybercriminals are using Web sites related to Miley Cyrus’ image to
link to other harmful sites containing spyware.
8 Megan Fox, Angelina Jolie – Both
tabloid fixture Megan Fox and American icon Angelina Jolie resulted in
an equal number of risky download Web sites, proving cybercriminals are
in the business of capitalizing on the world’s most famous faces.
9 Ashley Tisdale
– The “High School Musical” star is a popular search term when it comes
to searching for screensavers. A host of screensaver Web sites
contained numerous malware-laden downloads.
10 Brad Pitt
– Appearing in the top spot last year, Brad Pitt fell towards the
bottom of this year’s list, resulting in a few less, but just as
dangerous, red and yellow-ranked Web sites.
11 Reese Witherspoon – Risky
Web sites were identified when searching for “Reese Witherspoon” and
“Reese Witherspoon photos” promoting free files with hidden malware.
12 Britney Spears –
McAfee SiteAdvisor technology found a single site promoting free
Britney Spears wallpaper that was embedded with more than 50
potentially infected downloads.
13 Rihanna – Free
Rihanna ringtones are some of the most sought after, but some shady
vendors mislead those who subscribe by gathering and selling their
personal information.
14 Lindsay Lohan –
McAfee SiteAdvisor flagged Lindsay Lohan screen saver sites as offering
a combined 50+ free screen savers infected with Trojans, viruses and
spyware.
15 Kim Kardashian –
The biggest reality star in recent months is now susceptible to
Internet lurkers too. A search for Kim Kardashian wallpaper and screen
savers generated numerous downloads veiled with malware.

Wait! What???
Did you really mean to say "Fight <i>against</i> the war on drugs", or does this mean that YOU are actually in favor of the senseless political imprisonment of hundreds of thousands of harmless drug users? Subjecting people to lengthy prison terms for the 'crime' of putting prohibited substances into their own bodies while directly harming no one? Ruining the lives of the many functioning addicts like me who are actually <b>better off</b> on drugs than not?

YOU of all people support this shit?

Really???
Fight the war on drugs? Fuck your war on drugs!

 

Typical addict behavior. If you can clear your mind long enuf to focus on something other than the nose on your face, you would clearly extrapolate that an individual fighting the war on drugs is radically different than institutions fighting the war on drugs.

But because addicts are impulsive by their very nature it does not surprise me that you jumped out of your chair and ran into the wall without first checking to see if there is a door.

Common-sense is out-of-fashion. I have little hope about this thread.

 

In that case, why not go around advising people to go "join Al-Qaida"?

And then, when an observer points out their instinctive horror at your suggestion that joining a band of terrorist thugs would be a good idea, you can come back at them like a condescending dick to point out the fact that "an individual waging violent jihad is soooo much different than when an institution does it".
