Copy Pasting Disease

kenshin2143 @kenshin2143 (1880) • Philippines 4 Feb 13

Its not really a disease which involves viruses and bacteria. Anyhow, my seatmate here in the internet library is doing his research on various companies like Pepsi and petron. Anyhow, I really find it very stupid to conduct some...

Labrat Its pointless because different people have different ways of writing what they think so if blocks of text are copied and pasted from different sources it becomes obvious that it isnt orignal text. Plagarism is punished severely in my educational facilities....

kenshin2143 @kenshin2143 (1880) • Philippines 2 Feb 13

Labrat Saving money or investing for me is completely dependent on the moment. My general rule however is that i try save a certain percentage of surplus of my salary each month and then use the rest for extras be it luxury or investments

Whats worse than a slow internet speed?

kenshin2143 @kenshin2143 (1880) • Philippines 8 Jul 12

I just recently read an article written in our university paper telling about the certain proposed bills in the US such as the Anti-Counterfeiting trade agreement (ACTA, Stop online piracy act (SOPA) and Protect IP act (ACTA)....

Labrat yea slow internet really does suck, but i think worse than that is when you are nearly done downloading a large file then the internet cuts off and you cant it reports an interupted error so you have to start again.

The importance of a good alarm clock

Lmfisher666 @Lmfisher666 (820) • United States 4 Jul 12

One can't underestimate the power of a good alarm clock. This is what starts off most of our mornings, the beautiful (more like annoying) sound of beeping. This wakens us, so we can get ready for work or school. We can eat our...

Labrat I tend to use three alarm clocks, each with double alarms on them, so that means if I wait to the last alarm I sleep through six alarms. I am really not good at getting up in the morning.

Labrat Of course he needs us. Does a parnet need their children? I would say yes they do. And what is God, a parent to us all. So I say it isnt enough for God to be on his/her own. Thats why God made us in the first place.

Labrat Its not hard to say thank you, depending on who you are thanking of course. It is also surprising how far a thank you can go, and ignorance can go even further. I always remember those that were ignorant to me at times in the past.

Labrat Im not sure, I would like to travel the river nile, or the river rhine probably. Mainly because of the amount of history around them. But then again I would like to travel from end to end of the river severn. I think it would give some interesting sights.

Do you wear pants even in hot weather?

SomeCowgirl @SomeCowgirl (32191) • United States 2 Jul 12

Growing up, I would wear jeans even if it was hot outside. I didn't like to wear shorts or anything like that. Mostly it was because I didn't want to shave, or this was before I was "allowed to shave." I will wear a skirt or...

22 responses

Labrat Well I plan to do what I always do, that is to do nothing special because its just another day for me because I'm not american so I dont get to celebrate. The best I get from it is that the TV channels sometimes have better movies and programmes on them.

Two Sins That I Don't Understand

rayf227 @rayf227 (95) • United States 30 Jun 12

The first one is that we are not to use the Lords name in vain. But I don't know what it really means. Does it mean saying God d***? Or saying "Jesus Christ!" when you're surprised or shocked. Or is it something else...

Labrat With the first sin I think it just means that Gods or Jesus's name should not be linked with the negative, I dont know why seeing as both do good and bad in the bible. With the second sin I too dont understand this properly, I think it may be to do with not...

Labrat I think its a good idea, I dont think you really know anyone properly until you live with them on a permanent basis. Yes it may mean testing a relationship but if it is strong it should survive through all the arguments and struggles.
