Are there any good online comics out there?

schoepenhauer @schoepenhauer (10) • Philippines 7 Mar 07

I used to read Vera Brosgol's Return to Sender and Dylan Meconis' Bite Me until she got into Girl-aMatic and it became very hard to access. It is very refreshing to have something to read and look at periodically. Some of the...

schoepenhauer There's really just one solution to your problem. Read. Do it out loud and do it quietly, either will be good for you. Always have a dictionary so you can look up words that you do not understand. If it is possible, engage people in conversation and watch...

As long as we are still being violent to animals there will still be wars

michelledarcy @michelledarcy (5220) 7 Mar 07

Because we are violent to animals and treat them bady and kill them for ur own gain this make violence to other things accepable in our society. This also makes violence to other people seem acceptable as well. As long as we stil...

schoepenhauer I get the point. But for the most part, society doesn't care. Precious few pause before biting on a hamburger and thinking they're commiting a violence to cows. Maybe you should start a campaign to educate people. As for now, if we're only talking about...

schoepenhauer What you will get from it is a lot of confusion. The story flows very well, but it has a bummer of an ending and the main character may as well be cardboard for all the emotion he elicits from you. The movie is a bore. I tried watching it twice and I ended up...

schoepenhauer It's very hard to choose a favorite book. I like the Discworld books, and the one I really like from there is A Hat Full of Sky and The Fifth Elephant. Chocolat is also nice, and To Kill a Mockingbird. Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code is probably the worst book...

schoepenhauer I loved the book more than I did the movie. I saw the movie first and it was so visually amazing that I half expected the book to fail, or at least not live up to the movie's visual presentation. But it was way better that for a long time after, I was telling...

Do you still get a cake on your birthday?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 7 Mar 07

Birthdays are typically once-a-year affairs except for those born in a leap year. I remember when I was young, my parents would always get a cake for me. We will stick in some candles, sing the birthday song, and then blow them...

schoepenhauer I don't get cakes anymore. The last time I had cake for my birthday party was when I was in my teens (see I can't even remember when). What we have now is pizza. Maybe that would seem so common cos you can get pizza any day, but it's become a tradition. I...

schoepenhauer Though I wouldn't go so far as to say that animals are made to be eaten, it is true that certain kinds of animals are available partly for human consumption. Animals do also eat other animals. It's the classic predator-prey relationship, and it is a means of...
