S.N.O.B. Collection by Tijana Pavlov presents a Belgrade man who's ready to step in to Europe but with a holdback that doesn't allow denying (in a good but also in a bad way) of that native-and-national something in him. And that is basically what the word SELFISH stands here for - primary to point out the selfish characteristic, but also to indicate through that "SELF" part of the word, the very

When your average person commits suicide, they do it because they feel that dying is the only option left to them. They are at such a point of despair that they can think of nothing else to take away the pain. I know because I’ve been there. A couple of times.

Hey DumBO, it’s not socialistic, it’s socialist… genius. And true to your Marxist mentality, you don’t even understand that you are proving McCain/Palin’s point. If you voluntarily share your toys, or your sandwich, no one would call you a socialist… they would call you a conservative. If the [...]
Isn’t this rich? At a rally in Sarasota, FL, yesterday Barack Obama said:

So I saw this quiz on Blogthings and I was pretty curious on how much I'd score on this. I've never been called selfish to my face, though.. but then again, who knows.. the people around me might have neglected to tell me that before. LOL!
So my score is:
You Are 29% Selfish
In general, you are a very giving person who treats others very well.
But at times, you insist on getting your way

Suicide is a selfish act. No reason is valid enough to justify such action. Just this morning, my grandma told us that a lady neighbor died, actually killed herself.

After hearing it, I lost my appetite.Suicide is a

On Wednesday I was driving to work listening to the radio like I do everyday. I don't remember the content of what I was listening to, the only thing that stuck out was a commercial. The commercial promoted the wannabe Presidential candidate, Mike Huackabee.At the beginning of the commercial I was baffled, "why would that slimy little used-car salesman run a campaign ad in Salt Lake in mid-February," I pondered. As the commercial dragged on my question was answered. The intent of the ad was to inform listeners that Huckabee's book, From Hope to Higher Ground, had just gone to paperback. As I heard the radio commercial voice tell me how great of a person this ex-governor of Arkansas (not really a prestigious group to be a part of) is and the power of his book something happened.You see, I m

I feel pity for students who go to school idling around during lessons and not doing given work. They are not only wasting the teachers' time but their own time as well. They are the most selfish creatures in the world to waste their parents' money.When things have to be done, do it.If you are there for a purpose, make the purpose valid.When you are at school, make full use of the time to study hard and absorb as many things as you can. Even if your absorption power is low, make sure you make efforts. If you do not want to study or do assignments at home, finish them during lesson time.

This is a "Banned" post! I wrote this almost a year ago and removed it from the site about an hour later, because I didn't want to cause a stir. That's wack. I went back and read it, and dammit, I want to say these things! You don't have to agree, just please be respectful in responding. It's all about the dialogue. Now, I know that I have readers of all races nowadays, which is great. I got love for anyone who's heart is good. But, there is an issue that I want to address that may not make everyone comfortable. I can only be honest, and if you are offended, feel free to speak. I am a Black woman. I date Black men exclusively and I wish that more of them shared our loyalty. *Waves sadly as my White internet friends bolt.*I know some of y'all, Black, White and otherwise see this as antiquated thinking.

He asked me to lend him my pair of climbing shoes cos he doesn't want to wear the ones at the climbing centre (that have been worn by hundreds other users).

When was the last time you reviewed your bio, back book cover, or description of your keynote speeches? What did it say? If you’re like the average Christian speaker or writer, your marketing text may be working against you.After reviewing the websites for over 100 Christian communicators, I’ve noticed a strange pattern. Most marketing text focuses on self-praise of the speaker or a self-centered look into the writer’s life. Granted, many of these people are just copying what they see others do. However, if you make this same mistake, you could turn off website visitors, influential leaders, and potential customers.Here’s the point: Your audience doesn’t care about how great you are. They care about what great things you can do for them. If someone visits your website and never g

On Tuesday, I spent most of the day with my mother. I knew I wouldn't be able to see her on Wednesday, which was the Fourth of July. We had friends over for dinner. It's difficult to include my mother in holiday celebrations these days. And besides, with my son leaving for college in January, I want to make sure that the focus on these last holidays is on him.My mom's assisted living facility had a party, decorations, and special food. Although I'm not sure that either of my siblings, both of whom live in Los Angeles, visited my mother, they hadn't dropped by when I called her caregiver in the early afternoon.It would have surprised me if they did. Until my mother moved into this assisted living facility, I was responsible for making sure that she had plans on almost every holiday for almost 17 years.Holidays have always been important to my mother. All three of us know that. And yet, it was rare for either my sister or my brother to invite my mother to spend a minor holida

Now firstly before I talk about the sorry he is definately the better looking out of the two and seems to have age much better too. She looks like she is about 68 with bleech blonde hair.Sting and wife Trudie Styler yesterday lost an employment tribunal on the grounds of sexual discrimination.The couple were sued by their former chef Jane Martin, 41, who was sacked from her £28,000-ayear job after eight years for getting pregnant.Ms Martin told the Southampton tribunal staff lived in a "climate of fear" because of 52-year-old Ms Styler's abusive behaviour, unreasonable demands and her need to "feel royal".The chef said that after contracting gastroenteritis during her pregnancy, Ms Styler said: "Who the f*** does she think she is? She needs to be available if I need her, or she should rethink her position."Ms Martin's solicitor, Mark Broad, said: "She is delighted with such an overwhelming victory."Manager Andrew Bowling of 800-acre Lake House, Wilts, denied discrimination.The 20-p
Self-actualization is the science of knowing ones true self. Over the past 3 years, I discovered the most effective way to reach this realization. It’s simply by interacting with one of the other spiritual beings on this planet. Arguing. Loving. Talking. Disagreeing. Disagreeing being the most important to me. It’s through honest discourse that I find my mind and my voice. It forces me to think about what I truly believe. It shows others my true mind. Together these two actions are what define me. A few days ago, I was struck with a moral dilemma. I work in an ESL school in Tokyo. The lessons are only 40-minute and usually pretty quick and dirty. It’s much like a fast food restaurant. I call it “Fast Food English”. One Sunday, at the end of the day, my coworker was feeling a bit cheeky. He noticed his next lesson included a student who had a stuttering problem. A really bad stuttering problem. Speaking from experience (pardon the expression), having him
Steve Rubel thinks that trackbacks feel irrelevant!
These days, however, the TrackBack feels irrelevant. Sebastian Kiel agrees with me. So does Jeff Harrell. It’s been replaced by little widgets that have the same effect. You’ll notice that all of my posts have a chicklet that show the number of links and diggs. This is powered by Feedburner.
Jeff Harrell thinks trackbacks are becoming useless.
Do people still use trackbacks? Have they fallen out of vogue because they’re rarely automatic and a pretty significant pain to invoke manually?
I’m thinking about disabling them on this site, and removing them from the checklist of features I include on new sites I build.
Here’s the flaw in the thinking of folks who think that the widget and chicklet will kill the trackback!
Widgets and chicklets are selfish! By disabling trackbacks in favor of chicklets /widgets your forcing your user to take an extra step to see who else is involved in the conversation.

[Copyright notice this is my stuff and carries with it jws blogprint] I feel sorry for the significant other in an evolutionist’s life, but more on that later.
For the next several days, leading up to that gloriously commercialized date on the calendar which is founded in fertility festivals and mythical stories about Catholic saints, that being Valentine’s Day, I will be discussing what else but…LOVE. This may come as a shock to some who believe I have the heart of the grinch, but hopefully these articles will show that I do have some small grasp on the subject     :-)Â
I invite my readers to please leave your comments and added thoughts as we go along, because love is nothing if not subjective, and you as the one being subjected to my thoughts on the subject, may have a totally different view.Â
The first ‘love’ topic that I want to address is that of love and the evolutionist, I see no monogomous monkeys and no evolutionary advantage to romant
Some jerk whose screen is "Eudaimo", who once tried arguing and then turned to trolling, left this comment on my Comic Dossiers blog:
I doubt this will be responded to, but why does this blog exist? It's so obviously some sort of trick that multiple people (myself included) have pointed out that it must be a joke (no response has been made).
Weirder is the fact that it continues at all. It's not a particularly popular site in the comics blogosphere...it's actually relatively ignored.
What end does this seeming social experiment pursue?I've since redacted the comment from the blog itself, as any asinine statements will obliterated almost instantly. Of course no response will be made. There is no need to. Anyone who acts as if they have the right to trespass like that on my premises gets their comments deleted without further notice.
And to answer the jihaditroll's claim that it's not a particularly popular site in the comics blogosphere - I should worry? I never expected it to gar
I guess I'm feeling pretty low tonight. These past few weeks Daddy hasn't had much time for me. Not because he doesn't want to but because he really just hasn't had the time. I know this, deep down I know that, but it doesn't make it any better.Since he started his new job, I have been really pushing myself to be a good submissive wife. I've been taking care of everything I can think of that needs my attention, and probably more. Trying to figure out exactly what he will need before he needs it, and I know I've done a good job. Yet sometimes it's very hard to be submissive, when there's no dominant to correct you for the things you did do wrong. Maybe that sounds a little crazy, and no I'm not the bratty sub I once used to be, I don't purposely brat him into punishing me, but I do desire for him to give me things to do and punish me when I fall short or don't live up to his expectations.I've realized a few things about myself lately. The first there is a big difference bet
Book DescriptionRichard Dawkins' brilliant reformulation of the theory of natural selection has the rare distinction of having provoked as much excitement and interest outside the scientific community as within it. His theories have helped change the whole nature of the study of social biology, and have forced thousands of readers to rethink their beliefs about life.In his internationally bestselling, now classic volume, The Selfish Gene (Amazon Astore UK | US), Dawkins explains how the selfish gene can also be a subtle gene. The world of the selfish gene revolves around savage competition, ruthless exploitation, and deceit, and yet, Dawkins argues, acts of apparent altruism do exist in nature. Bees, for example, will commit suicide when they sting to protect the hive, and birds will risk their lives to warn the flock of an approaching hawk.This 30th anniversary edition of Dawkins' fascinating book retains all original material, including the two enlightening chapters added in the se
I don't have kids.I don't want kids.I like to be able to hand the little heathens back to their parents after an 'accident' or in the midst of a crying frenzy.I like to be able to get up and go whenever I want without the burden of finding a babysitter.I like to be selfish.So, to sum it up again, I don't want kids.With that being said - I think we'd be excellent parents. A bit conceited, yes, but it's true.I mean, we've talked about it, we agree on many of the same issues surrounding the topic of children but yet - we enjoy our freedom entirely too much to give it up.Which seems to baffle the majority of people we come into contact with.I mean, once you get married that's the next logical step isn't it? To have children?So, why wouldn't you want that? It's expected.Oh, I know why - because I don't.And I'm tired of people trying to push that on us. It thoroughly pisses me off.And now upon rereading this post I realize that it looks like I hate kids.Which I don't. I like k
We were at Matt's flat, walking back to his room. One of his flat mates was in the lounge with his girlfriend. His girlfriend who just happens to be my best mate here. She strode out of the lounge, a look of pure misery on her face. Hurt, crying, and him still sitting on the sofa sulking."Come on, we're leaving.†She told me, already opening the front door.Matt and I exchanged commiserating glances and I ran into his room and got my stuff. I kissed him quickly, said, "I love you,†quietly and ran out the door after her. She was my ride, and she was also desperately in need of some comfort.Later on I realised what I'd done.I told him I loved him, and I actually meant it. It was the wrong time; his flat mates all hate me because when I'm around I "absorb†him. If I'm there his attention is on me. If I go out then he's with me. I'm making the two of them jealous, and that's making it awkward between me and Matt because they don't want me around, and
