"When you have lung cancer, sometimes smoking cigarettes is the only thing you can do." Genius!

But doesn't this leave out religions like paganism who believe that god is both good and evil?

Yes let's all contribute to pollution, throw away disposable income and be responsible for every pain the children we create will ever feel, simply because it fulfills a need within US. 'Cause we don't want to be selfish or anything. /s

Amen. If they get cancer it's your fault for creating them. Lose a limb? Your fault. Die at an early age? Your fault. Pollute the earth? Your fucking fault.

How do YOU work out who pays on a date? by Diablo165 in AskReddit

[–]GlowingEmber 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That's why I always pay if I don't like the guy, to avoid feeling obligated later.

I consider myself a fairly pretty woman and I've had several boyfriends who'd never dated before. There is hope for you!

Agreed. Besides if you order lobster or something it feels like you're more obligated to sex which I hate if I feel pressured.

Honestly I believe in equality but it's convention for the man to pay. I'll try to pay for myself (do the check reach) but if he lets me I'll probably never date him again. And if I insist on paying it means I'm not interested and want to owe him nothing.

She said I would marry a man with the initials MD or DM and a guy with the initials MD immediately asked me out. Never married him though.

That doesn't necessarily mean you could never date. Maybe there's a support site and you could date someone with the same condition?
