Political correctness has brought on a denial of stereotypes. This is amoral. There is a reason as to why Georgia, Alabama, and Meeseeseepee are referred to as the "the dirty South". Yes, Florida is for old people. People from Oregon do NOT have an accent. New Englanders and New Yorkers are rude and difficult to get to know. Californians are retardedly liberal. Arizonans long for the day of the wild west. Texans prefer to be their own country and like to shoot people. People from Kentucky are extremely good shots. (Hence, the term, "Kentucky windage.") No joke. I met a few people in the Army from Kentucky, and I believe it is in their blood. I know ONE smart person from Tennessee. He lives in California now. People from West Virginia have velvet paintings of Elvis in their living rooms, chew tobacco, and play the banjo on their front porch. West Virginians also have very large satellite dishes in their front yard. But they don't have running water. Every other state in the southeast US expects preachers to drive white Cadillacs. New Mexicans are prunes. People from Ohio are boring. Wisconsans, Illinoians, Arkansans, are also boring, yet pretentious. I haven't met anyone nor been to the other states, so I'll reserve judgement on those until I go there or meet someone from there. Oh, and by the way, I hate people from Ontario. You are the rudest people I have ever met. If a group of 125 people go to a comedy club to laugh a comedian's jokes, shut your fat mouth. People don't go to comedy clubs to get mad, they go to have a good time. Jerks. The Dutch are jerks too.

Stereotype of people from regions in the USA
by free2beme inokay, before i worked in a call center that took calls from people from all over the country, i would have defended the idea of stereotyping people as 100% wrong and not possible.
we are all americans, all human beings and so on.
then i worked in a cell center and spoke to these people every day, in that time, i have learned the following to be sooooo true.. florida - is full of ooooooold people.

Marx was an idiot. Him and his brothers, Groucho, Harpo, and that other knucklehead. I'd follow Bear Grylls to the end of the earth, though.

New Ex-JW's: Smoking isn't worth it!
by AlmostAtheist init seems that many jw's take up smoking as soon as they leave the watchtower.
the reason is obvious -- they weren't allowed to!
lighting up is like giving the finger to the watchtower.

In that case, I'd say go for it. I was assuming that females would get more attached. But if no one gets hurt in the end, then rock on.

les stroud (Survivorman) or bear (Man vs. Wild)? (Discovery channel)
by troucul inme, i prefer bear.
don't know if anyone has seen the latest round of people who put themselves in harm's way to educate people as to what to do in a survival situation.
i like bear (even though he has a filmcrew,) because i think it's more realistic.

Me, I prefer bear. Don't know if anyone has seen the latest round of people who put themselves in harm's way to educate people as to what to do in a survival situation. I like bear (even though he has a filmcrew,) because I think it's more realistic. What is a loner going to do in the middle of nowhere? He comes up with the most innovative ways I can think of to survive. Plus, former military, and Brit to boot. Brit special forces are insane yet brainiacs. That guy kicks ass. Les, I appreciate what he's trying to do, trying to ensure that there's no outside interference from his filmcrew. But I think that gets more in the way. It alters the experience of his attempt at survival. Bear's experience exemplifies what one would and should do alone more realistically.
I loved it when Bear sunk his teeth into a live Alaskan salmon. Bad ass.

Who's to say J? Then again, a 22 - year - old male? He may very well change his mind within a year after you had won him over. You may have spared yourself some heartbreak.

It was a little excessive, but minor hazing is ok in my book. After all, she, and all other officers will be figuratively stabbed in the back by Iraqis during her tour. Better help her get her thick skin.
