Opinions. (please elaborate/explain)
What do you think of abortion? I think that it ulimately is up to the mother, but it's really unfair to kill an unborn child. Everybody has a purpose, right, so why take that poor child's life and purpose from them? I guess in cases of rape, where it isn't the girl's fault, I frown less upon the matter. But if you're mature enough to have consensual sex, you should be mature enough to handle the consequences.
What do you think of the war? I don't agree with war. I know it sounds cheesy, but I think we really should be able to live in peace and harmony. War seems to me like nothing more than making existing problems bigger.
Should Hilary Duff be shot? Yes. She can't act and I personally think her songs are lipsynched...
Where'd you hear about us? Banner in me LJ
What do you have to say about cutting, etc.? Cutting yourself: not cool, Drugs: not cool, Uderage Drinking: not cool, Smoking: not cool
Believe me, I've tried some of that stuff, and it's not worth it. Nobody could possibly get so low that they'd have good reason to kill themselves or pollute their bodies with junk like that. The drinking age is 21 because the human body does not stop developing until that age. Every time you drink or do drugs, you kill brain cells that can't come back. And as for smoking, you can live on one-fourth of one lung, but do you really want to?
This or that.
Pepsi or Coke? Coke has more carbonation and a better bite. Pepsi is just... Sweeter. I like Coke when I can get my hands on it, but my family likes Pepsi better.
Black or white? Stains don't show up as well on black, but it's hot in the Summertime. I like a good mix of both. Can I come to that conclusion about these?
Short or tall? I like my men taller than I am. Marshall, my boyfriend, is 6 foot 2, whereas I am 5 foot 4...
Gym shoes or flip flops? Gym shoes are so comfortable, and they don't give you blisters like flip-flops can if you wear them too much, but they get hot in the Summer. Again, a mix of both.
Wallets or purses? Purses are able to sneak things into movie theatres so you don't have to chop off an arm and a leg to pay the casheir at the consession stand.
Boxers of breifs? C'mon, guys, do you really want it just flopping around during gym class. I like a guy in boxers for just every day activity, but a guy has got to wear briefs for gym class. So a mixture again... Dontcha just love meh?
Cats or dogs? Dogs don't purr and many are too big to curl up in a twin bed with me.
Other.
Why should we accept you? I'm funny, nice, and caring, and I'm unique. I never used to like myself, but I'm working on finding out who "myself" is and learning to like me.
What made you want to join? The banner is inspiring to just get out there and join here. It was posted in my journal, which contains some of my artwork and some photos if you're interested, and I thought I'd check it out.
Will you participate as much as possible? Yes, ma'am (or sir if you're a guy... or in the military...)
