Speaking of weird traditions like shaking hands, one thing I've never understood is the tradition of "blessing" someone when they sneeze. I understand where the tradition came from (medieval superstition about demons), but I don't get why people still do it. Why should there be an entire social inte...

The only video games I cheat in are: The Sims 2, if I get bored Civilization IV, if a civilization p**ses me off and declares war on me for no reason. So the Inca have decided to sneak-attack me after centuries of good relations? Fine, I'll just go into world builder and give myself a few tanks... s...

Whoa, I did quite a bit better than I thought: Your score: 28 A typical score is in the range 22-30.

I realize that makes me "un-American" to a lot of Americans, but I don't care about that, either! :...

I've always presumed it was because i don't like my name, but i am doubting that after reading these posts.

I couldn't care less about mainstream society, or today's celebrities. I agree wholeheartedly. I believe Sting said it best: Don't wanna hear about the drugs you're taking Don't wanna read about the love you're making Don't wanna hear about the life you're faking Don't wanna read about the muck the...

Yes, I've always had trouble with this myself and I don't know why. It doesn't matter if I'm with family, around friends, or at work, for some reason I just feel uncomfortable calling people by their names. I have no problem using people's names when I'm talking about them in the third person, but c...
