I'm wondering how many other people out there really don't like kids. Are you sick of people telling you that "you'll change your mind when you get older"? Tired of having to put up with other people's spoiled brats acting...

This discussion was inspired by the "why is alcohol legal?" discussion. I've always wondered this- cigarettes have been proven to cause all sorts of terrible diseases (cancer, for example), so why is it still legal when other...

juliel 1. The powerful tobacco lobby. Think of all the companies that would be shut down if we banned cigarettes. 2. All the drugs should be legal. If you want to poison yourself, it should be your prerogative.

This question is inspired by an ad I saw on television where a pregnant woman beats up a guy with a blow up kids toy because he wont give up his seat to her on a bus. I don't know what it's advertising *laughs* Do you always...

juliel I don't nkow about the elderly, but definitely not the pregnant. Pregnant people make a choice to have kids, and that was their choice, not mine. Nobody gives their seat up for me when I'm exhausted, or carrying a lot of heavy things, or really sick. I...

juliel I had an Abyssinian who was unbelievably needy (the opposite of the way people think cats are always aloof). I got her when she was 4, and she was sweet and quiet, but always insisted on being next to you. I couldn't take a bath without her being on the side...

juliel Oh, and please don't buy a cat. Adopt one from a shelter who wouldn't otherwise have a home (and might even be put to sleep). There's no good reason to support breeding more cats for money when there are so many that are abandoned every day.

juliel There's no particular breed of cat that is the best, just a cat that's the best for you. And while there are certain characteristics that tend to go with different breeds (I think Persians tend to be fairly mellow; Siamese are often high-maintenance) and you...

There are several places that have already done it, and more than are considering doing it. We've all seen it in action, someone driving along paying little attention to the road while talking on their cellphones. Their attention...

juliel There are so many things that are equally (or more) distracting that will never be banned; the biggest one that comes to mind is having a child in the car! And that, of course, will always be legal. Studies have shown that cell phone use counts for about 1%...

juliel It's not per se rude for someone to not have offered to give up their seat. Certainly it was an opportunity to be nice, but not doing that is not the same thing as being rude. I live in New York and constantly have to deal with tourists, etc standing...

I love to polish my nails when they have reached a length worthy of color. I would touch them up when the color on the tips would wear off or if the polish chipped away. They always looked neat. When a touch up was not enough,...

juliel Um, because mine are usually chipped to some extent within a day of having them done. I opt not to rush to remove all the polish as soon as I get any chip on one of my nails. And I won't just redo that nail because it's a rare occasion that I have the time...

juliel The biggest problem to me, other than the accent, is either cultural or the way they're trained. My experience has been that you call the call center and while speaking in this terribly thick, completely not understandable accent, is that while you're...

juliel I really like a lot of the bands they play on KGSR, a radio station out of Austin. Robert Earl Keen, Staid Cleaves, Patti Griffin. . . I hate the label "adult alternative" but I guess that's one way to describe it - or alt country?
