I think that Hitler was actually a fairly good politician.I think that he made a horrible mistake trying ethnic cleansing, however. That was stupid. He as well as his cohorts re-shaped Germany into a then modern day power.If World War 2 had not happened, the Germans may have well been strong enough to win a later conflict.

I hate to do this but aren't these threads kind of impossible to keep safe.

It starts with people saying that they like the third spider-man movie but soon becomes about people voicing support for throwing acid onto the face of women married to industrialists, smash the bourgeoisie, while others start chanting that Hitler didn't go far enough. And then the most heinous hate speech of all, liking mass effect's ending.

Never forget people, never forget

I think that feminism is outdated and should really just fade away and be replaced with general humanism. You know, not being a dick to your fellow humans (without provocation) because it's the right thing to do.

Really unpopular opinions.

Bullying serves a useful social purpose.

1.encourages conformity.
2.Teaches people to deal with conflict at an early stage.
3.Teaches that some people are assholes and not everyone should be implicitly trusted.
4.Strengthens character for when real troubles occur once out in real world.
5. A fair proportion of people decide to show the bully's by becoming successful.
6. Those that don't cope with it well would probably be eaten alive once out in the real world.
I know I shouldnt but...

I think children have a right to attend school and feel safe and not tormented by a minority of dicks

you should ask anyone who was consistantly (and horribly bullied) how much it "helped" them...chances are it turned them into bitter twisted people

I was never bullied and I turned out 100% fine....even if I did seem like the kind of person who couldnt hack in this thing you call the "real world" we learn lifes lessons sooner or later..we DONT need some asshole beating us up to help us

the level of condescension that comes form their posts if they disagree with you is disheartening to say the least, and sadly leaves no room for actual discussion(because they truly believe their right and anyone that disagrees with them does so because their less intelligent). .
that sounds exactally like an argument I had a day or so ago....you know the "Im smarter than you" and the condecending, I mean the levels were off the charts

as for the ego stroking...Im guily..of receiving and giving..Im kind of like an internet ego whore :p

Now, have you seen the Scorpion King 3? That is an amazing film.
I was surprised that I really enjoyed Scorpion King 3. Then again I like cheesy films and that one has some real cheese moments.

But it was an enjoyable film.

I used to like Mutant X and Victor Webster played my favourite character in that so I couldn't hate the film if I wanted. He gets a free pass for nostalgia purposes.

I liked the second one as well though to be fair.

The Star Wars prequels are actually good and that everyone is blinded by their nostalgia goggles. Or they're on the bandwagon.

]I was constantly and horribly bullied, I turned out fine. I probably turned out better than I would've if I went through not getting the shit kicked out of me on a weekly basis.
I guess...but I think its definetly wrong to say "I went through hell and I was fine, if youre arnt fine that just means your weak"

I don't see it as nessary in anyway and the assholes who bully SHOULD NOT get away with it

Even if you are a internet ego whore, you're still the nicest one I have ever had the good fortune of meeting. :eek:)

Also, I like your new avatar. I recently changed mine to a picture of Loki as a kid.

I didn't think he was lazy because of the repeat thread, I called him lazy because of comments like this;

Alright seriously people I just couldn't be asked to use the search bar. I just don't care enough to sift through thousands of other threads so I just made my own.
If that's not laziness I don't know what is.
Yeah, it might be lazy not to search but c'mon, it's one single thread. One single thread that can easily be ignored and shrugged off, forgotten about before the day/night is over.
Like I say his attitude just really got under my skin. If it was a mistake I wouldn't have cared as much.
Let it be known that I'm not a lazy person, I'm a lazy user of this website, but not a lazy person. Besides, on the internet what you do shouldn't tie down people's opinion of you. This is why sites like 4chan and tumblr have so many users, because nobody cares what they do.

But if this thread is rustling your jimmies, quick follow me to a new thread! [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.375893-High-school-stories]

I am confused, probably different term usage but what do you mean by trade? to me that means a skill, not an actually job title? maybe store clerk? just wanted to know and cant find on google.
ah
in Australia we call them the "trades"

stuff like Carpentry, plumbing, building, electrician...that kind of thing
Ahh thanks, I thought it might be that, but larger in scope. but was confused that someone would say they didn't want to do trades as a female. No disrespect. Just explaining my question and thoughts :)
