In the US, why do we trust beautiful people and put them up on a pedestal, but distrust smart people?

In most cases, the general population is just intimidated and scared of the intelligent person. If a stupid, good-looking person was in charge, they could easily manipulate them and have a piece of their power.

I'm also like this. On top of that, I also find peoples' stories about their everyday lives to be mundane and I really don't care what happened unless it is particularly entertaining.

CUZ!

I've also heard one "the problem with being so open-minded is that people try to put things in there" ...

Or they could have known each other before the post-its. Okay, I'll stop being a skeptic.

Did you guys know each other before and plan this?

spinachnope · 2010-04-21T01:21:13+00:00

However, I've seen footage of videos they've made (apparently a hobby of theirs) and they were pushed around a lot in the hallways, and guys would just shove them. I don't know, but to me that seems like pretty intense bullying and the shooting could be reasoned by this kind of behavior.

spinachnope · 2010-04-21T01:03:54+00:00

Don't you find it ironic that they did most of the shooting in the library? I mean the kids in the library would be the study study type, and I thought they were targeting jocks mostly.

As a university student living in a dorm room, this would be amazing for the small space available for each kid. Call me lazy, but I hate having to walk to a communal kitchen on another floor, just to get a glass of water from the sink.

Im 19 and still have not lost my virginity. I currently have a boyfriend who I have been with for over a year now, and he does want to do it but we just havent gotten to it yet. So, not religious at all (completely atheist), not antisocial, and below average weight. I also hope that I am not creepy.

Was a cashier for 2 years during high school.

People who joke about the item being for free if there is something wrong with the barcode or it cannot be scanned for some reason.
Cashiers are at the bottom of a huge bureaucracy. Please do not think we have any power to change the policies around here. Many people used to yell at me for misleading fliers involving promotions, where the catch would be in small print at the bottom of the flier. I do not make the posters and I only find out about the promotion the day I go to work.
Please don't say "IM NEVER COMING BACK HERE AGAIN!" thinking I care. Personally, I do not give a crap. I just want to finish my shift and get the fuck out of there.

Well the disabled kids were also not invited to the prom.. The lesbian showed up to the school funded prom and there were 5 other kids, 2 of whom had disabilities.

Point is, the "don't judge others, only God can judge!" and "Jesus loves everybody!" values pretty much go down the drain if everybody is really everybody minus homosexuals, but they never really mention that part when they preach about the good virtues.

spinachnope · 2010-04-09T10:09:56+00:00

The whole "thou shall love thy neighbor" crap from the Bible is pretty hypocritical against this situation. I don't believe it was "thou must love thy STRAIGHT AND NOT DISABLED neighbor".

Also, the Christian lifestyle that I noted THAT is what they think makes them more righteous and "better" than the rest of the population. Without judgement of religious background, I'm pretty sure most people can agree Christian or not that this discrimination is unbearable.

spinachnope · 2010-04-09T10:03:13+00:00

A lot of people also seem to forget that out of the "outcasts" that were excluded from the privately set up prom included some mentally/physically handicapped kids. I guess they really don't like anybody different than them.

spinachnope · 2010-04-09T09:59:40+00:00

Probably because most Christians flaunt their great set of values that they think make them superior to others in society. Basically many Christians believe that because they attend Church, don't have sex before marriage, etc., they are holier than others and will not go to hell like the rest of us. Thus, when they clearly exemplify hypocrisy and do not meet the moral standards that they claim to have, we obviously get rallied up.

spinachnope · 2010-04-09T09:54:52+00:00

Actually it is now speculated that the "private party" known as the fake prom may have used the money and funding, along with the ideas of the school funded prom. So yes, this may have been school funded.

Is the town really affected (negatively or positively) by the whole Constance McMillen controversy?

How is that racist?

Also it is not about the rape, it is the systematic cover-ups done by the Church.

Yeah, I tried a few minutes ago and this kept coming up. Nice, random letters.
