    what happened to doctors?

    Where are you? From what I understand a doctor has to see you (especially in emergency) and if they don't you can sue for malpractice. From my own 2 emerg. visits (one for me, one for baby) to childbirth to just plain old family doctors I can't complain.

    Ever Leave an on-Line Community?

    I was thinking of my own experiences in on-line communities, and how we move on from one community to the next. Or not. Basically, I was wondering if you have ever left an on-line community that you were a significant part of. Could be a gaming clan, or a community like The Escapist. What...

    Odd Anniversary... (Ever Leave an On-Line Community)

    So... about a year ago (actually a year and ...3 weeks ago) I left my on-line community. I was pretty involved with them. Very involved actually: I wrote for the front page, was a Mod, clan leader... etc. Anyway: I left that community abruptly. Well... not true. I was thinking of leaving for...

    Are men finished? Will our new female overlords be kind?

    someone else pointed out tthis point: I really think that this is a good thing too... for men! Look guys: if the patriarchy goes away... you don't HAVE to be the breadwinner! You can stay at home with the kids if you choose to! You can do what your heart's desire is, not what society tells...

    [Marvel/DC] Male counterparts to female heros/villians?

    See: a bunch of these women superheroes were created because they wanted to protect their own IP. Make a superhero (a man... natch) and then you have people thinking of the female version. Make a spider-man: you also have to make spider woman, because someoen else will. superman gets super girl...

    Would naming my kid "Vault" be a detriment to him in life? Or a bonus giving him instant geek-cred?

    I like it. Here's why. As a middle name is fine. First names: it's not that other kids make fun of him: but that it's such a polarizing name: if he hates it: he doesn't really have a fall back name. Can't shorten it, or whatever. (i.e. if you hate "John" you can be a "Jack" etc. Elizabeth can...

    My dad wants me to get an Ipad 2 -_-

    Ipads are great... for certain things. Not as your go to for school or whatever. It's a supplemental device that's great for surfing the web while you watch tv. to actually get work done? get laptop. Would that convince him? I mean an iPad is great... but not for what it is that you need...

    Being a gentleman/ How to Treat a Lady

    a thought: a pedestal is nothing but a tall, round prison. Treat people like people. Someone mentioned it: if you want to hold doors etc, that is great. Do so, but do it because it makes you feel good about you. I hold open doors etc for the person behind me. Whoever they are. Kindness to...

    Feeling really bad

    I would talk with a councellor at university. I think you could use someone professional to talk to. Nothing wrong with it at all and you will feel much better. They will be able to offer you better advice than anyone here can offer. Good luck.
