The way I see it, self expression is fine, Christian even! Tattoos aren't my way of getting there, but they're not evil or anything. If others want to get them (safely) that's cool. :smile:

Wait... isn't it like, you can't be buried in a Jewish cemetery if you have a Tattoo? At least an Orthodox one?

I guess, I don't know, I'm Christian but I was never told tattoos were demonic. Obviously denominational differences!

It's basically a classic example of someone who doesn't like something and tries to find spiritual reasoning to deprive others of something they personally don't like. That's like pulling out a bible verse about fish to rationalize the fact they don't want someone to order anchovies on their pizza, when that person isn't going to eat it anyway.

I have this rant right now that Janice would probably sympathize with. It's when in school, when everyone's talking and it looks like they're never going to stop. Then when I say my first word, it's that exact moment everyone stops talking and I'm the only one with his mouth open.:mad:

What in the world IS this Sensa stuff? Seriously, I see NOTHING! I just see a bunch of weird people dancing out on a beach shaking a box of nothing onto their food and claiming they lost 40, 50, 60 pounds with the stuff... WHAT IS IT?! I DON'T SEE ANYTHING! IS IT INVISIBLE OR SOMETHING?!

I hate it when in your free time and you feel like you have nothing to do and get unbelievably bored. Every time it makes me want to scream my head off!

You know what I hate? I hate weaves, plastic surgery, implants, and make-up. I really do.

I think it's an insult to natural beauty, and the cause for conceeded people.


Weaves may be hair extentions, but they just don't look nice to me. They all come in the same color, and in the same style, which also illiminates uniqueness in people.

Make up is just a cover up. make up looks very nice on people. Really. But wearing to much can ruin your skin, or really, you just don't know how to wear it, or you think the world revolves around you, because you have Art on your face!

Plastic surgery isn't one of my main peeves, but I do admit it has the ability to replace bones in the event of severe facial damage. (Steve Wilkos, watch it.) But it just changes your face and you look... You just look wierd. Like, if it's intentional, it usually looks wierd. But if it is required, you look just fine. But still, it's just wierd. Look at Michael Jackson. he go plastic surgery, and it made his skin pale, and his face ugly. he's not cute like he used to be. (Or WAS 'cause he's dead... XP)

To put it the best way I can, Implants are just dumb. If men only like you because of the size of your... bosoms... Then you DO NOT need them.

I needed to just say that.

Shoplifters. 20 years ago I worked at Penney's, and it cheesed me off to no end when someone would come in our store with the intent to rip us off.

Actually this weekend marks the 20th anniversary of this little debacle. A gang of punks came in, acted obnoxious, spat on the floor, knocked over displays, harrassed other customers, and looked like they might pull something. A short time later, they were escorted out of the store by our store security, mall security, the Wayne Township police, and a thousand dollars' worth of merchandise. A few of us cheered as they were led out in handcuffs.
"Cuff 'em and stuff 'em!" And I took the liberty of yelling at one of them "That's what you get for being ****ing stupid!!!"

One of the cops actually took me aside and said "You shouldn't say that."
Okay. So maybe, just maybe, trying to rob a store and getting caught WASN'T stupid.
Tell you what, Mr. Petty Thief. If you're a minor, and you're at the police station, and you're waiting for your parents to come get you, OR if you're an adult and you're waiting for them to take you to the local jail until your hearing comes up, think things over for a while. If what you did wasn't stupid, take a good hard long look at yourself, and see where your brains got you. Okee doke?

I agree with the cop. I'm sorry, but you were wrong for shouting that in a store full of customers. That was extremely unprofessional on your part. I understand why you would do it, but you shouldn't have
