I'm confused why so many people, even people who LIVE here, think we are a democracy. Why do we bill ourselves as such?El Poncho said:America confuses me, the more I learn about it the more confusing it gets. Also the more I realize it isn't as democratic as they claim.
Seems simple to me. In my experience of the world, chaps will say whether they're angry, happy, or sad...Betancore said:Don't know about that, I reckon boys are very confusing too.Jedamethis said:Well, suicide I guess...
And womenfolk.
it's an emotional drama about a girl in a love triangle.Ldude893 said:Girls and Twilight. That is all.
I think it's becauseJumping_Over_Fences said:I don't understand people's obsession with Nirvana. Yes, they made good music, but that was about it, nothing all that great. Did they revolutionize music? Hell no, they weren't even close to the best grunge band. I didn't understand their success when they were hugely popular in the early 90s and I certainly don't understand them now.
yes, i see that florence and the machine reference,but varity is not what there talking about like how can someone like good music(nirvana)or someones who's interested in music like bad pop(justin bieber)Girl With One Eye said:Haha I'm kinda like that too (without the Justin Beiber part) but I like to listen to a lot of different songs rather than follow a particular band.
What I'll never understand is why so many people waste so much energy hating Twilight. Just ignore it for fuck sakes.Ldude893 said:Girls and Twilight. That is all.
Because he has a high voice. End of.ThatLankyBastard said:Girls confuse me utterly...
... Bieber and Nirvana are one thing but there's a girl I know who's two favourite bands are Justin Bieber and SLAYER!
...another thing that confuses me... Why do people like Justin Bieber????
Well, fair enough. I just don't understand how 'we're friends' turns into 'how about we sleep together?'Jedamethis said:Seems simple to me.

Well, 'friend' mostly means somebody we like.Betancore said:Well, fair enough. I just don't understand how 'we're friends' turns into 'how about we sleep together?'Jedamethis said:Seems simple to me.

Nope, it's a republic all the way, anyone who tries to tell you different is either patriotic to the extent of fanboyism, ignorant, or just plain stupid.El Poncho said:It's miracles I tell ya! Fuckin' rainbows.Lemon Detective said:Lady-females.
And Magnets. How do they f***ing work?

No, I mean, well, when a guy says to me that we're friends, I assume we're friends. As in, platonic friends. It's kind of confusing when later on they let you know that they liked you all along, and didn't really consider you a friend in the first place.Jedamethis said:Well, 'friend' mostly means somebody we like.
Which is why some men have trouble understanding "love you as a friend"
You mean you don't like whoever you sleep with? What?
Hmmm...what do you mean by 'friend' when you say he didn't consider you one?Betancore said:No, I mean, well, when a guy says to me that we're friends, I assume we're friends. As in, platonic friends.

Surprise, surprise, guys want sex. Also, some guys might think that just cuz you two have fun together, share interests, etc., that you would work as a couple. Me, my problem is that I'd become friends with a girl and, after getting to know her, realize that I like her, so I then have to climb back up from that "just friends" status if I want to act on those feelings.Betancore said:Well, fair enough.

I meant that he led me to believe that we were just platonic friends, as I said, but now I just feel as if everything we did together as friends didn't mean anything because he only did it to get with me. Which is a little disappointing. You think that someone just enjoys the pleasure of your company, but it turns out that they want something else from you.Jedamethis said:Hmmm...what do you mean by 'friend' when you say he didn't consider you one?
Well that's the thing; it'd be a lot simpler if they made it clear that they just wanted sex, rather than pretending they didn't like you. Seriously, we're confusing? Double standards much? And I guess in your case, it'd be understandable if the girl interpreted that in the way I am now. It'd be so nice if we could all just say things directly without fear of embarrassing ourselves.gamerguyal said:Surprise, surprise, guys want sex.
