Hi guys, how many times you hang out with friends in a week? I think hanging out with friends is a very fun to do if we have our free time. Or, is any of you here don't have time to spend for hanging out with friends because of...

avonrep1 I don't get to hang out with my friends like I use to, but it is distance that keeps us from hanging out more. I moved a few years ago and it's hard with the current economy to get together like we would like. I moved about 30 miles away from my home town and...

avonrep1 If someone was a guest in my home and talked to my daughter that way, they would be laying out flat. I am not a violent person, but if I am kind enough to let you stay in my home and you think it's okay to behave like a child I am gonna treat you like one....

maximax8 @maximax8 (31046) • United Kingdom 4 Mar 13

I was made redundant from my job when I was 20 years old. My home country has high levels of unemployment due to a recession. I tried ever so hard to get another job but it seemed impossible. I decided to let out my cottage, get a...

avonrep1 I agree with you that working travel holidays as you called it should be done when your young and can afford to take risks. Not so much as you get older and have children. When I was 16 I left home to travel around the US with a traveling sales company. I went...

It's ego tripping?

aubrey @averygirl72 (37845) • Philippines 3 Mar 13

I am so malicious to think about this thing. Isn't it just pure ego tripping when we listen to preachers on Sunday? Let say we ought to do it for the Lord but if you put yourself in the shoes of preachers, it's a great ego trip....

avonrep1 It was very nice of you. But I do find it sad that in 2013 that people think that people who are deaf are dumb. They are not. Calling deaf people dumb can affect their lives, their self esteem, the value they have in life. Being deaf doesn't make anyone dumb....

Are you good at keeping your mouth shut?

Dominique25 @Dominique25 (9464) • United States 2 Mar 13

avonrep1 It depends on the situation. Most of the time I am really good at keeping my mouth shut. But there are times I won't keep my mouth shut. Once I was in the hospital's parking lot and this man was beating this woman. I stepped in foolishly maybe, and he turned...

avonrep1 Suspense, if this guy works and has some money even if its not much, maybe the solution for you would be to let him stay there and do the work, but also buy the materials for the work. Even if he can't afford much, one week he could buy the installation, one...

Death - a rant

TheRealDawn @dawnald (85146) • Shingle Springs, California 28 Feb 13

It's a part of life. Yeah, it is, but that doesn't make me feel any better when it was somebody I loved. It's a blessing that they weren't in a lot of pain. Yeah, it is, but I'd rather they didn't have to die at all. They're...

Does It Mean As Much?

Jennifer @LovingMyBabies (85288) • Valdosta, Georgia 3 Jan 12
