(12 answers)
madaboutjess

faerie_kisses
: I like both but I prefer large concerts.
SBG_Writer9289
: it depends but I prefer local shows
the_poetess
: Local shows :-P
rising_tide

JaRuleG16

boxocereal

jrock_is_teh_smex

What do you listen to when you WANT TO GET MOTHERFU*KING PUMPED???!!!
(10 answers)
djhowty
: dropkick murphys
the_poetess
: Madonaa's newest stuff, lol. I dance in the car.
BreeMcKay
: Rage Against the Machine usually gets me pumped. OR BASSHUNTER'S DOTA!!!!
rising_tide
: depends on what I'm getting pumped for, I guess.
Dominion_Sk8er_Chick
: Avenged Sevenfold
boxocereal
: Techno gives me energy.
LongLiveTheLoud
: well...what I listen to on a normal basis is what generally gets people "pumped," so, yeah.
Do you possess the capacity of faith to accept me as your unconditional and undisputed Lord, Savior, and Creator?
(11 answers)
hayliehalze666
: yes
faerie_kisses
: Nah
the_poetess
: *blows a raspberry* Silly man, you're just a prophet.
BreeMcKay
: All hail Jesus Christ SuperROCKstar!
boxocereal
: No.
rising_tide
: alas, no. You'd have to turn some water into wine first... or some lawn clippings into marijuana, sugar into cocaine, etc.
confuzzled24-7
: No you have done nothing that would even began to qualify as being my Lord and Savior
phig
: Lol
LongLiveTheLoud
: nope. I'll start a black metal band called "Punk4ever Dethroned"
Is is just me, or does it seem like well-off suburban white kids make up the largest demographic of teens who suffer from depression? Why do you suppose that is?
(12 answers)
SBG_Writer9289
: Because teens have a more thorough view of life than adults do, because they're still questioning it.
the_poetess
: Teens are when people start looking for answers and meaning. From my experience with the emo crowd, I'd say they often come from broken or one-parent homes, and their parents don't have that much to do with them. If you're poor, you know real hardship. If you're ultra rich, you've got cliques and country clubs. If you're middle class and white, you don't have very many bad experiences to draw strength and answers from- you're searching for meaning when there's no meaning being offered. That and emo bands seem to be white teenlike people *rolls eyes*
boxocereal
: I dunno.
rising_tide
: probably. Read 'Future Shock' by Alvin Toffler.
phig
: I imagine that well-off suburban white kids make the biggest fuss over being depressed, rather than constitute a majority of those depressed.
LongLiveTheLoud
: My final answer: because human beings are generally full of sh!t. Thanks for deleting that whole mess.
MaryMeTwoDay
: Cause there parents expect to much from them or have them on a tight leash or just don't care.....
NEttERRORISM
: because they are full of sh!t.
What are you thoughts on socialism/communism?
(10 answers)
cheer_up_emo_kid
: I believe the best social program is a JOB. I'm Republican.. I'm so against that sh!t. Seriously if MY hard work, years of college and training to be a professional that gets paid $150,000 a year then NO ONE should take that from me. Paychecks are for workers. Ignorant??? nope- that's the real American dream babe
CaliGirl333
: I think governments are unhealthy institutions and bring out the worst of human nature, but let's not use those words. They're dirty.
SmartJock
: great in theory, lousy in practice
djhowty
: works on theory, not so hot in practice. much of the idealism in the theory is removed or warped during the actual implementation.
boxocereal
: I don't know.
rising_tide
: It's a pity we're all so greedy, or we could've been onto a good thing there...
phig
: Grossly inefficient, largely unrealistic in the USA. We've been driven by corporations for over a hundred years, and I doubt that the government would, or even could seize from them the means of production.
LongLiveTheLoud
: I concur to Net, Socialism would work, but not Communism.
NEttERRORISM
: Socialism would work, but not communism.
For those who believe in the concept of eternity, how do you think you'll spend it after you die? That's a hell of a long time after all.
(6 answers)
SBG_Writer9289
: I believe in reincarnation so I'm leaving it up to chance
the_poetess
: Circle of life, rebirth, and eventual sleep. :-D
boxocereal
: I don't believe in that. It's just something people made up because some people are uncomfortable with the idea of just simply not existing, period.
rising_tide
: I believe in eternity, but I don't necessarily believe I'll experience it. If humans are around for it, I envision a single moment of bliss that extends forever.
LongLiveTheLoud
: I would spend it doing many different things, then move on to other things. after several million years or so, I would probably just enter eternal sleep, who knows where my soul woul end up.
MandyLee
: im not so concerned with me. my dad is my best friend, i told him he should get divorced before he dies so if there is an after-life he doesn't have to spend it with her. me? I have a family plot in chicago. I'll chill among the best.
What exactly do people mean when they say "music is life"? Just curious.
(9 answers)
CaliGirl333
: I could explain "art is life" but I don't know what's special about music in that catch phrase.
boxocereal
: Not sure. Maybe some people feel they can't live without it.
LongLiveTheLoud
: I don't know, but most of them don't really give a f*ck about music. and only ****e mainstream music, at that.
psgman2
: they just think they know everything about music although they've never touched an instrument
What's the most enlightening book you've read?
(15 answers)
hayliehalze666
: "Burned" by Ellen Hopkins
SmartJock
: The Holy Bible
BreeMcKay
: Siddhartha. It wasn't so much as enlightening as just simple and beautiful.
boxocereal
: Hmmm...
rising_tide
: One that springs to mind is 'Female Chauvinist Pigs' but Ariel Levy. There are others, though.
phig
: Good question...probably "Stranger in a Strange Land," by Robert Heinlein.
meandhim080307
: They Cage The Animals At Night
xxmuzicbabexx
: The Center of Everything. I could really relate to it, and it was very meaningful.
In one sentance, justify your existance.
(13 answers)
CaliGirl333
: I am here for our evolution.
SmartJock
: I golf, therefore I am
boxocereal
: LOL @ psgman2's answer... =p
rising_tide
: I think, therefore I am
phig
: As long as I'm here, I plan to stick around.
psgman2
: sentence is not spelled that way.
PRIMO
: I am typing this answer...
dontcare1790
: I don't know the word impossible. ^_^
What are your thoughts on marijuana?
(24 answers)
CaliGirl333
: I think people should be able to make their own choices, and there's nothing about weed that impairs that ability or right. Personally, I recently decided I'd be better off to lower my consumption, so I'm taking a break until I can do it just once in a while.
faerie_kisses
: It's not for me.
SmartJock
: the two times I tried it, it made me deathly ill
SBG_Writer9289
: Stupid. It's bad for your mind, it's bad for your body, and if you smoke while you're pregnant you could really hurt or kill your baby, and if you smoke around children or pregnant women or other people they could get second hand smoke.
BreeMcKay
: Legalize it already. Get rid of the underground trade.
rising_tide
: um, been there, done that? people who are always stoned are boring. It's not as big a deal as people make it out to be, and once they realise that, I think it will lose it's appeal somewhat.
phig
: I'm all about it.
ChaosCreatedGovernment
: I didn't smoke weed til I was 17. I was actually highly AGAINST it, and I got mad at people who did it. Pot is awesome. But it really does make you lazy, and I wouldn't recommend smoking it everyday like I did or you'll be a slacker whom wastes a lot of money for a 1-3 hour high.
Elcisitiak
: Whatever, it should be legal because it's an individual's responsibility to care for themselves, and I for one don't need the government babysitting me. That said, I don't do it - not necessarily by choice; I'm severly allergic.
PRIMO
: Should be legal in the US.
boxocereal
: Yuck.
NotJustAnotherUsername
: It should remain illegal but there should be stiffer penalties if you are caught with it
skagirlie
: Not my thing.
XxGemstonexX
: *two thumbs up*

What events or factors have shaped your ideology/views on life (religious, political, or just in general)?
(10 answers)
SBG_Writer9289
: Those where there is physical, scientific proof ready, and experience.
boxocereal
: What nirvanalove said...
confuzzled24-7
: My up bringing had some to do with it, but i still went my own way and figured out what I believed and for my self. And some of the struggles i went through really helped strengthen my faith.
Elcisitiak
: Everythings shapes the way I view the world, I notice tiny things (often at the cost of the big picture), but every little thing shapes the way I see things.
PRIMO
: A few people, and just reading things.
tuggy
: Having to be self-reliant (financially) since I was eighteen, paying for my own college, emotionally and physically surpess my homosexuality for twenty years, having great parents and transient friends. Everything shaped my ideology, every single experience.
XxGemstonexX
: expierence..age/maturity...
Do you believe in Evolution or Creationism/ID? Explain why.
(18 answers)
SBG_Writer9289
: Evolution, because there's proof to back it up. Creationism, particularly the bible, makes no sense and there's no proof. And miracles don't count as proof.
loving_tyler_2005
: Evolution.. because there is scientific evidence to back it up. Evolution may not have been figured out completely, but it makes more sense.
BreeMcKay
: Evolution. Where the facts point. Creationism makes absolutely no logical sense AT ALL.
boxocereal
: Evolution because there is actual physical evidence.
rising_tide
: I don't think that either doctrines are totally correct. I don't dispute physical scientific evidence of evolution... things like the flu prove that evolution exists. And Creationists are clearly dillusional; even within the Bible there are alternative accounts on how the world was created. So I am thinking that, for example, God is the Big Bang. Or something.
confuzzled24-7
: Creation, things do adapt and evolve over time because that's what GOD made them to do. I just don't understand the belief that everything is just happening to fall together and adapt to it's environment on it's own.
phig
: It's all about motivation, I think. For millennia we clung to creation myths because they were the best explanation we had of where we come from. But now that we have an intuitive, simple, largely coherent theory of evolution, the motivation for positing some God-entity on this basis alone has long since past. So yeah, evolution all the way.
Elcisitiak
: A combination thereof.
PRIMO
: Evolution makes more sense than any creation method. But Its not called Theory of evolution for nothing. It has its un answered questions as well. I don't follow either
tuggy
: Evolution, and yet, I see no reason why there cannot be a blend, scientists don't know how organisms were brought about, although there is the excellent protosymbiont explanation (which is why I favor evolutionary theory) that explains development from volatile chemicals forming a proto cell that eventually became thermophilic bacteria.
XxGemstonexX
: Evolution.
Have you ever been outside of your native country?
(27 answers)
faerie_kisses
: Nope
rising_tide
: yes. I've spent extended periods in Germany and India, and visited about 20 other countries.
PRIMO
: no
boxocereal
: No.
tuggy
: Yes, a few times, as half my family still lives in Mexico, we go down there every once in a while...and I went ot the UK for a week or so.
LongLiveTheLoud
: border town, I guess.
baby_girl2008
: yessuh. jamaica kicks ass.
angelsdevilgurl
: No
djhowty
: yes
KoRn_chick2007
: No
Pink_Vampiress
: no
Do you believe in God? Explain why or why not.
(27 answers)
hayliehalze666
: no. its illogical
cheer_up_emo_kid
: hail satan
SBG_Writer9289
: No, because I don't believe in a God that is biased and hypocritical, plus there is no physical proof of this "so-called" God, plus how do we even know he's a he? If God made all of us in "his image" then he'd be a bisexual multiracial two-faced hermaphrodite. But then again he could have been a cactus, since Jesus lived in the desert so he could have seen a mirage.
loving_tyler_2005
: No and I don't know if I have an explanation.. but I don't think I should have to have one for something that is faith-based. Just lack the faith I guess. :D haha
boxocereal
: No, I just DON'T!
confuzzled24-7
: YES! I couldn't imagine living a life thinking there is no God. Seriously the thought that humans are as good as it gets would be a little too depressing for me.
phig
: No. The world makes more sense to me without the Judeo-Christian God-figure. I'm not positive there is no God, though...really, anyone who tells me there definitely is or definitely isn't a God turns me off a bit. To paraphrase Chuck Klosterman, certainty comes only from dogma.
ChaosCreatedGovernment
: No. God is fictional. Who in their right mind believes some f--cker lives in the sky and you go to him when you die? Oh man, I could go on and on about how God is false and how sad I am that people spend.. no WASTE their whole lives believing in it and following it.
Elcisitiak
: Yes, I do. As a Jew, so stop assuming that a belief in God makes one Christian!
PRIMO
: Which "god" are you refering to? there are hundreds of gods. None of them have logical sense or proof.
XxGemstonexX
: No.
LongLiveTheLoud
: I beleive in a creator because I beleive that everythin in nature is far too design-like to have been an accident. But I don't beleive in a religon or whatever, I don't immediately assume that what I just said proves Christianity or any religon right.
baby_girl2008
: honestly...i dont know. i think i do, but i'm still workin on that. haha
angelsdevilgurl
: No, there are many reasons why I don't.
djhowty
: no. i have no reason to.
KoRn_chick2007
: No.. I have no reason to
Why are so many obsessed with love and relationships?
(30 answers)
Elcisitiak
: Oops, hit enter too soon. The other possibility is that it's an addiction to the adrenaline rush you feel when you're around someone you love, similar to thrill-seekers, just less extreme.
Elcisitiak
: It's human nature to want love, because love is just a misfiring of brain synapses to trick you into reproducing.
tuggy
: I never used to be until I got into one...
loving_tyler_2005
: honestly? helps get me through everything in life. i love being in love.. best feeling in the world.
baby_girl2008
: we're humans. i think it's just our need to be loved.
djhowty
: no clue.
SBG_Writer9289
: Just human nature I guess...
boxocereal
: All you need is love.
HelloKittysGirl
: Maybe they're lonely.
djhowty
: because they have nothing else in their life other than listening to music and being emo
Inquisitive
: its the pursuit of it that can make people obsessed.
skagirlie
: Everyone needs love
WhispyElf_69
: idk, but it can get tedious
emo_tears90
: because thats what teenagers are all about, love, who loves who and who doesnt love who....
silentbleednrose
: hell if i know
angelsdevilgurl
: i really dont know. ive been trying to understand that and i just dont.
Do you think punk is dead? Explain.
(36 answers)
boxocereal
: I do not care.
rising_tide
: I think punk wishes it was dead, what with all the bands taking its name in vain.
tuggy
: You see this, this is what I like to call a trapped question, because you're damned with a yes and damned with a no.
LongLiveTheLoud
: BUt, i think I know what you mean. And yes, punk has been "dead" for quite some time. But "dead" means that it's the "in" thing and that it's the current trend. and trends suck. So, it doesn't matter.
LongLiveTheLoud
: Firstly, it depends on what you would call punk. Punk, as in hardcore and 77' punk. Or Punk, as in pop-"punk." Secondly, it depends on what you mean by "dead." The mainstream definition of "dead" is that it is no longer the current fashion, the current trend. Mainstream music copying punk is dead.But, i'm pretty sure you just meant like, punk, real punk, if it's dea-i've already confused myself.
KoRn_chick2007
: No
SBG_Writer9289
: I don't think it's 'dead' but too many people are confusing it with Goth and emo and the only way to see 'punk' is to go to certain concerts or bars where bands play
punk_kid04
: no...but so many people are getting punk confused with other **** that just sucks...if you want punk you pretty much have to go to underground bands.
skagirlie
: oh I forgot to explain. Well I think fashion punx ruined it.
skagirlie
: it is now
me_love_rainbows
: punk will never be dead
fallen_angel_wings
: I think it is in a way because of all the kids that think that punk is a certain genre of clothes that you buy at Hot Topic.But I think that a lot of people still have punk in their soul and now its underground again.
Dorrie_ramone
: Course it is. Theres all these pubescent little c*nts that think that Good Charlotte is proper punk.
hereticMagpie
: it died the moment johnny rotten agreed to go on "I'm a Celebrity, get me out of here"
CaliGirl333
: Yeah. Sadly, I'm starting to think it really is. I mean, it'll never be all the way dead, but the word is losing its meaning and there isn't a similar subculture to take it's place. So i guess that's a yes.
silentbleednrose
: wow same thing primo said
walkingINspiderwebs
: no way no way no way!!!
vmb2008
: i don't think anything really dies, it lives on in minds of the real people who experienced it (think of your parents, leg warmers are not really dead)
rEdZoNe
: to many posers... u kant tell real from fake
PRIMO
: Yeah. Its been replaced with this "emo" sh*t that is going around. I don't fully know of it or anything, nor do I care. Just seems that it got overpopulated as because it was once viewed as cool and rebelling against society. No "emo" does that. Now that is all the rave.
unwantedsoul
: maybe, times change as ppl do too. What's cool and *in* at one time may no longer be cool, u dont see as many kids that are punk anymore, so it might be going away, but i dont think it will completly die.
JustAnotherFiend
: No... it just went back underground where it belongs :-)
Are you striving towards a cause, or rebelling just because?
(33 answers)
boxocereal
: Hmm..
xSealedLove08x
: both. im only 15 so sometimes i just get annoyed and rebel without any reason. but then i look at life and see there is so much that is worth fighting for, so at times when i do rebel i have a reasonable cause behind it.
tuggy
: Striving towards a cause, but that's been inadvertent as of late, and I don't rebel, because I've nothing to rebel against, my freedoms have not, as of yet be tested. we'll see in a few years.
MillieJayne
: yeah I'm striving to rebel just because, I dunno it's complicated I guess.
HelloKittysGirl
: Striving, but it's confusing.
emo_tears90
: yea im more a rebel without a cause.....
angelsdevilgurl
: a cause
vmb2008
: yeah i am rebeling against my mother with out even thinking about it just b/c she wanted me so much to be the perfect child like she was, don't get me wrong i'm not real bad b/c i don't want to ruin my life but i came close
rEdZoNe
: sometimes i just rebell and sometimes i just belive in a cause
PRIMO
: Could be either or.
JustAnotherFiend
: for ever effect there is a cause ;-)
djhowty
: rebelling towards my own goal . . .
kureyrocks
: i think rebeling just becuase it dumb, if your gonna fight for something make it something you think will make the world better
rogue_nymph
: The former.
angeleyes_69
: rebelling just bevause i can
Rivergem
: A cause... I hope.
chibi_chibi_9000
: cause
nikkie_luv
: rebelling just because..
trishh
: im more of a rebel without a cause
Do you support your local music scene?
(52 answers)
cheer_up_emo_kid
: seeing as I used to run local shows and rep for bands that are now famous... YES. and DUH.
faerie_kisses
: Not much anymore. It got lame in the past two years.
rising_tide
: yes and no. There is no local music scene where I live right now. In my hometown, the local scene is a bit of an emo wankfest, with a bit of metal thrown in. Neither are really my scene. But I support Australian music in general.
Elcisitiak
: I would if they didn't suck.
tuggy
: At least twice a week, I love it here.
XxGemstonexX
: Absolutly!! We have a reallly good music scene here.
LongLiveTheLoud
: If they're good, then yes, but generally, no.
KoRn_chick2007
: No
SBG_Writer9289
: I would say I support Country music but there's no one on this damned planet to help me out! DAMNED ROCK, POP, and HIP HOP!!! *shakes fist angrily toward the sky*
boxocereal
: Yes.
skagirlie
: not when it's a bunch of emo teenyboppers
Elle2189
: not all the time but some times yeah. most of the time they suck
CaliGirl333
: God yes. It's mostly crap but i spend all my money on the local scene because it needs it more than the corporate world does.
angelsdevilgurl
: yea
JaRuleG16
: no.. it sucks.
walkingINspiderwebs
: no its ****. all emo/scene crap
vmb2008
: definatly
PRIMO
: No, music scene in my area sucks.
JustAnotherFiend
: yup
kureyrocks
: if i like the band i try
rogue_nymph
: Not really
Kissedinadream
: Yeah, I'm going to this concert in a couple weeks thats all local
innocentguilt
: i don't even know if we have one... its probably just a bunch of crappy rap battles
Mel9300
: You bet i do. in fact i am going to plug them here. http://www.purevolume.com/holloh and http://www.purevolume.com/broke
startleme23
: Yes, I make it a point to go to as many shows as I can. I normally go to at least one a week.
goddessgurl09
: nah...I can't get out so I can't, really...Not that I really knew there was a local music scene O.O
heartonawire
: yeah
666Slipknot666
: yup
freddish
: I try, but I work almost every night so I don't get a chance to go out much.
startleme23
: Yes, I got to shows almost every weekend. I went last night, and I'm going tomorrow, and I'm going Thursday...and next Sunday too. I sometimes get made fun of for going to so many shows though...which I think is uber lame.
ohsdancer07
: kinda i like country but not as much as i love alternative
Rivergem
: I used to go to Banned Night at my local town but I'm not into the music that much.
What are your views on media censorship?
(33 answers)
cheer_up_emo_kid
: F'uck that.
SmartJock
: since all major media outlets are owned by big corporations, the idea of a Liberal media conspiracy is ridiculous. If there really was such a thing, do you really think Ann Coulter would be allowed to live, much less write and otherwise spew her filth?
boxocereal
: Pretty much stupid.
rising_tide
: we've censored ourselves; people don't read or watch incisive news media.
Elcisitiak
: And reading some of the other comments, kids don't need protection from swearing! It's not going to burn their ears off or anything. What they need is someone, whether it be parents or someone else in their life because not everyone has parents that will take the time to teach (hence the nanny censorship), just what's appropriate in what sort of circumstance and more importantly, why. What difference does it make if a kid hears some yell F***? It doesn't make any difference at all! It won't corrupt the child or cause a depraved civilization or anything like that. It'll just make them curious. What's the harm in that?
Elcisitiak
: It depends on what they're censoring. I don't think media should be broadcasting the location of our troops or whatnot because anyone can see that, not just the good guys. If it's just language or body parts, that's ridiculous for a couple reason. First, language has only the meaning assigned to it by humans, therefore how can it be intrinsically offensive? Second, sex is a natural act and there's no reason to skirt around it like it doesn't exist, because all that does is turn it into the proverbial forbidden fruit. My biggest question about censorship is why is sex so much worse than violence? It's stupid. I've grown up in a household where people regularly walked around naked and talked about whatever they wanted to even when I was little, and I was allowed to say or ask anything I wanted, and I'm perfectly fine now as far as that goes. Another sort of censorship is that of hate speech and such, and I think that should indeed be censored because that's one area in which children and, in fact, the general population are going to be impressionable and if they're hearing all this crap about how such-and-such group are this and do that, well, a lot of people have a hard time differing fact from fiction anyway, much less when it's being shoved down their throats as incontrovertiable fact. So in a nutshell, I'm for certain kinds of censorship.
LongLiveTheLoud
: I prefer to care more about how the media "censors" every ****ing thing that really goes on with our country, than curse words or whatever.

: It's a little biased and over dramatic but it is important because kids *a lot younger than 13 yrs of age* have access to all kinds of things on the internet and on television. I have a ten yr old cousin who shouts "**** you!" to elderly people as they walk by and hoots at women whenever they walk by or bend over. It's ridiculous. But parents also play a role in what is appropriate for children and teens these days, mostly children.
JaRuleG16
: its very important..
vmb2008
: its kinda like biased, u can't really stop it, it will always be there no matter what
kureyrocks
: censorship is one of the worst things there is
rogue_nymph

ohsdancer07

Rivergem
: As in age ratings for films and watershed, sure. But as in news censoring? No.
coolkid19878
: There should be no censorship
TouchTheSquirrel
: Its vital. Censorship is very important in all aspects. I saw a kid, no more than 3 years old, the other day and she was sticking her fingers up at people who walked past. Kids need more protection from swearing etc.
What's your least favorite band/artist and why?
(45 answers)
rising_tide
: least favourite? I have some pet hates ie. I turn off the radio when they come on; Avril Lavigne, Belle and Sebastian.
LongLiveTheLoud
: sorry for saying the most annoying thing you've ever seen. ahha.
LongLiveTheLoud
: All Pop, Rap, Pop Rock, alll mainstream music. Because, well, honestly, I am a mistanthropic person that is very very annoyed by it and hate the **** out of it. And I believe that it's all manufactured music, made for the purpose of making money, and to make the youth of our country stupid, and is not a true voice or expression at all. I also hate unpopular music that is influenced by this music, ebcause it's just a result of it. I am a big, big music Nazi. SIEG MSUIC!
SBG_Writer9289
: I would say almost all Pop, Rock, and Hip Hop bands and Brittany Spears but that would take up this entire page. lol. I used to be really big on Mariah Carey but now she kind of sounds the same. She's a gorgeous woman with an equally beautiful voice but.... I don't know. Brittany Spears should have stopped it right after 'Oops I Did It Again...', Paris is a fecking whore who couldn't sing or moan if her life depended on it. Maroon 5 and Fall Out Boy need to die. The Gorillaz never had any talent worth listening too. Avril Lavingne sounds too much like Michelle Branch, she's a good song writer but she's just another punk rock wannabe. Charlotte Church sounds like she's around Sarah Brightman's age, 40 but still kicking. And 50 cent seems like he's trying to rise up to Eminem's status. Have at it.
boxocereal
: Nickelback .. they are just a piece of **** band.
skagirlie
: Fall out boy, panic at the disco, my chemical romance, stuff like that and pretty much all modern rappers.
fallen_angel_wings
: Fall Out Boy. Everyone thinks their so great because they've heard like 3 of their songs but irf you actually listened to their record you would know that their crap.
emo_tears90
: least favorite....hm the gorillaz. or most of these rap artists, i just dont get their music
hereticMagpie
: i tend to put more energy into the things i DO like than the things i DONT
vmb2008
: the music where its just guys (or girls) banging on their instruments and making noises into the mic, that is not real music....come on seriously!
JustAnotherFiend
: Mariah Carey. I used to love her in the early 90's when she took full advantage of her vocal skills but now she just sounds like a dying cat.
kureyrocks
: most music without meaning, music that sounds like everything else, christain bands
rogue_nymph
: Good Charlotte and anyone who sounds like them because they're whiney and incredibly lacking in talent.
angeleyes_69
: evanescence or however you spell it
Kissedinadream
: Avril Lavingne, She can write a good song a her voice is alright but she has a horrible attitude. Like she was mad that girls wore ties too because that was her thing, I would be honored if people wanted to dress like me.
Rivergem
: 50 Cent probably. I hate his voice, his mostly illiterate songs have enough meaning to fill a teaspoon and he is tooo muscley. Yuk.
punk_kid04

ohsdancer07

coolkid19878

CaliGirl333
: Yes. I feel that it is under my control.
boxocereal
: I can't complain.
MillieJayne
: no because I feel like it's going nowhere. I'm cutting and I need to lose weight not because I think I'm fat just because I want to. It would be selfish of me to say I'm doing it because I think I'm fat because I know people are bigger than me but that doesn't mean I think they're fat if that makes sense. Also I feel like everyone hates me and right now I just hate everything about myself.
SBG_Writer9289
: No. I want to lose weight but I don't want to get too skinny. I need to stop cutting but I can't. I'm so angry all the time and I don't know why and therapy isn't doing me a damn thing. And everytime I bring up this shmuck people say to me, 'Have you ever had a boyfriend?' or 'You need a boyfriend.'

vmb2008
: yeah see u get to the thing that has been the BAIN of almost all my relationships, i have been tricked and used. See, I love sex and my ex's just took advantage of that and just tricked me into thinking they really cared about me just so i would sleep with them. Needless to say, I've learned from that.

shinyeyes
: my one and only, 3 days off from being 3 months. It failed because the guy was the hugest liar ever, he didn't care about anyone but himself, he stressed me out like you could never imagine, and it turned out that he asked me out just because he wanted a girlfriend and thought I liked him, or at least that's what I believe. My life starting becoming revolved around his and his happiness/well-being, and my own life got pushed aside and it wasn't right. I wanted to break up with him much sooner, and tried...but...well it's complicated. The end result? I hate him, and it's the only person/thing I've ever truly hated. I wish he were dead, in fact I wish I could kill him personally.

: there's a band called "next evening".. they're not famous or anything, just some guys that used to go to my school. but their music is awesome and they were just great on stage. their style's a little like linkin park... and they also covered "fly away" by lenny kravitz. man, that awesome.
Lena05
: The only band I've seen live is Creedence Clearwater Revival. I love their music. :)
freddish
: Tool, definately. Their shows are the most amazing things I've ever experienced. It's like being higher than you've ever been, but without taking anything. The energy they put out is fucking mindblowing... they sound great and they do a lot of improv and changing the lyrics a bit and that stuff so it's not just like them playing off the album, and they have amazing fucking visuals, and goddamnit now I want to go see them again.
vonu

LongLiveTheLoud
: TRUE METAL, because it's genuine expression, a genuine voice, rocks, etc.
SBG_Writer9289
: Country. Every song has a story to it and every one of them is different and they aren't always about sex, violence or drugs like Hip Hop, Rap, and Pop are
CaliGirl333
: Jazz, ska, and punk.
vmb2008
: i love just about anything it really just depends on my mood

SBG_Writer9289
: I wouldn't say that I'm a 'true atheist' but I try to avoid religion most of the time, exept for the high Jewish holidays which is the only time I attend synagogue but it's mostly for social reasons because then I get to see all my friends and family there. I practice a bit of Wicca but most of my beliefs are purely spiritual and nonreligious and Wicca is more spiritual than it is religious because it's nature-based.
CaliGirl333

Rivergem
: Big fat zero.
heartonawire
: none
firebringer
: tonnes... and as long as it's not negative... I embrace it
eyes_of_insanity
: it is my belief that religion affects everyone in someway, even if they are unaware of it. Its a science, not an exact one, but religion is a science all the same...
the_poetess
: None, other than watching what I say around people who I know are religious. However, my faith guides my morals, which thus guides my actions.

: too much its every where and we cant stop it...sometimes i wish it would would just hide in a corner and leave people alone and if they want to go to it then they can but keep it put of our schools and out of our gonvernment...its choice not something thats mandetory and everyone has different beliefs and its ok to belive what you wnat thats what this country was based on freedom and even though women and non white peoples have been gaining more rights it just seems like in the land of the free they keep taking awany more of our rights and you know what it all goes back to? RELIGION! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! we must stop this madness
mikeyNZ
: a lot.. it cramps my world. just because people have religious beliefs doesnt mean they can run around imposing them on everyone else and telling them how to live their lives. (take a look at gay rights, abortion, contraception, etc.. the list goes on). we got a saying here that some mates started... "if ignorance is bliss, then destiny church must be heaven" .. in reference to a group of christian fundimentalists who march around telling people they're the son of satan and are going to hell.
krazy_4given_1
: It has a great deal of influence on me and my everyday life. I love Christian music and listen to it all the time, lol. We also just had that 'see you at the pole' thing at my school, and it was GREAT!!! I love being Christian, and love living my life for Him.

krissie03

kelsoca
: It doesn't, though it does occasionally get me worked up and angry.
Eowyn_Athena
: A bit of influence - mainly on how I view life, though, not so much every day decisions. As a Pagan, I reserve the right to use my own judgement and determine my own values and choices. However, my religious beliefs do have some influence on my decisions, including moral decisions, and it also has an affect on how I view the world, and things going on in the world.
freddish

kanga_roo

rebecca89
: auto baby!
mikeyNZ
: stickshift, but i own a 1972 morris 1300 automatic.. which i drive like a manual anyway, because it has gear overide. most autos change gear way too early so you lose heaps of power. the newer ones are a lot better at it though. besides.. automatics are hazardous .. if you pass out in a manual and lose the clutch then the car pretty much rolls to a stop.. but with an auto when ur have the gears engaged it just keeps going... kinda happened to me, but i didnt pass out.. just wasnt paying attention and rolled forward into a concrete post when i thought it was out of gear :-P dented my chrome!!!
§eXyPeNgUiÑ

freddish

But I inherited my car and it's nicer than anything I could afford so I'm not complaining, and plus I don't know how to drive stick.

NotJustAnotherUsername
: I am against it, but I do support our soldiers. That may be kind of hard to understand
LongLiveTheLoud
: So many thoughts. But, i will say, that, none of the American people know anything about it, because the American "government" will never reveal anything to them. For all we know, it could all be complete bull****. So I wish people would just shut the **** up about it.
SBG_Writer9289
: It's just so ridiculous and pointless. The US never had a problem with Iraq until Bush was elected president *twice* and gave us false information that there were nuclear weapons in Iraq. Iraq being such a radical country, I think that if they had nuclear weapons we'd have already been in trouble long ago. The attention is shifted from Osama Bin Laden *I may have mispelled that* and strait to Iraq. And now we've got hundereds of troops, most of them who are barely out of their teens, and they and their families have no clue if they'll be coming back home proud and alive or in a box. It's like 'voluntary suicide' in a way, it's a position no one needs to be in.

vmb2008

Eowyn_Athena
: It's wrong. I mean, hell - half of Iraqis want Saddam released! That's what an "evil" dictator he was. In any case, I do think he did some bad things, but as dictators go, he wasn't too bad. And it's funny that we're calling the war in Iraq the "war on terror" because NOT ONE of the terrorists that were involved in 9/11 were from Iraq. Oh wait - the war is about oil, nevermind all that. I think the war was uncalled for.
SaraSouth
: The general consensus now seems to be that this war was a really, really bad idea. No political analyst is going to tell you it was worth it - well, maybe the ones on Fox News. In any case, the only ones left saying it was a victory are Bush, his administration, and his strongest supporters who insist that we were victorious and that the "war" is over. And all of this as we mark the 1000th American death in Iraq.

What are your thoughts on abortion? Should it be legal?
(52 answers)
hayliehalze666
: hmmm idunno. you should be able to make the decision for yourself....BUT i think if you were STUPID enough to get pregnant [i.e by choice] you should HAVE to have the baby and suffer because youre so retarded
cheer_up_emo_kid
: i'm pro-whatever the person wants to do. it's not my place (nor the governments or church's place) to tell anyone what they can and cannot do to their own bodies. Sh!t happens.
boxocereal
: Pro-choice. Even if it was made illegal that wouldn't stop it.
rising_tide
: even though I am morally opposed to them, abortion should absolutely be legal in the first trimester. This is chiefly because I don't believe people should tell me what to do with my own body, and also because I believe it is, at times, the lesser of two evils.
confuzzled24-7
: so my mom was raped, but that doesn't mean that she should have had an abortion because she wasn't prepared to have a child!!! a life is a life, even if it wasn't conceved on purpose. There is no way that I could ever look at a kid and think that they would have been better off if their mom would have killed them before they were born. And one of my goals in life is to be able to be at a place where if i do meet a child like that I can adopt them and give them a family that will love them uncondictionaly.
Elcisitiak
: Reading some of the comments... "There's also the issue of allowing abortion if the child is going to be severely disabled that it would have a poor quality of life." Who are you to say who'll have a poor quality of life? Again, it's a personal choice but if you just do it to have a normal kid, that's messed up. One of the happiest people I know has CP and can't really do much of anything herself but she's always smiling and laughing and cracking jokes (nonverbal ones). Also, if abortion is outlawed, how many women and girls will die through botched home abortions? Too many. One is too many. Why should we force people to bring children who will be unwanted and unloved into this world when there are so many children in foster care and up for adoption? The only time I think there should even be the possibility of legal interference is if the baby's old enough to survive on its own outside of the womb, so no abortions a week before term or anything.
Elcisitiak
: Pro-choice
NotJustAnotherUsername
: Pro-Life
XxGemstonexX
: Pro- choice.
MissBebe
: I'm Pro-Choice I think it should be legal.
SBG_Writer9289
: I believe it should be the choice of the girl/woman or a committed couple's choice without interference by the government, public, or religious communities. But I believe abortions should only be performed during the first trimester, if the girl/woman was raped, if the girl is underage, or the mother is terminally ill. All late-term *5-8 months* abortions should be illegal
ColBaal98
: it's a womans choice and the option should just be their, i have no problem with keeping options open
Elle2189
: I am not for abortion
CaliGirl333
: Safe and Legal. So many girls and women need a second chance.
ReRocky4228
: I think that it is a horrible thing to do, but it should still be legal.
vmb2008
: legal, some people can't handle a baby in thier life and i think giving away a baby is just horrible, if u were irrisponsible enough to get pregnant in the first place u should deal with the consequences (now rape is a WHOLE nother story but u catch my drift)
kureyrocks
: legal
thescrunchwithin
: It should definitely be legal. God, I'm so sick of hearing people's pro-life rants. Women who would need to have an abortion would probably not be a very good mother anyway, which is unfair to the child.
heartonawire
: i think it should only be legal if the person was raped
songofgloryXxX
: if you get rapped then yeah you should be able to but then again you could always put the kid for adoption but i mean if you open your legs you ahould have to deal with he consequneces.
bass_gurl
: yes it should but it should be only used in certain circumstances. getting rid of it just because it won't look perfect it the most ridiculous thing ever! and it should be only given at a very early stage i.e. before 24 weeks.
G0th1cR0s3
: Actually, if it's an endangerment to the mother than she could have a friend carry it for her so only if it's incest.
G0th1cR0s3
: The only way I would agree with it is if it endangered the mothers life. Or if she was raped or if it's incest. I hate people who do that. Who the fuck wants to rape they're own child?! TELL ME WHO? And if you know someone, I would like to meet them and kill them. That and rapist. Can't stand those perverted freaks. GRRRR! I'm getting angry again.
clouded_vision
: I don't think abortion is a good thing, and I could never have one myself, but I don't think it should be illegal. That won't stop abortion... it will just mean more women doing it themselves and higher infanticide.
xxthe_sweetest_thingxx
: ILLEGAL!!!! it is the murder of an unborn child. you people say it's murder if the person just was careless with sex. but if the girl was raped, you say it's okay????? what is the difference???????? there is a purpose for every single human life that is brought into this world...dont' take it away
*~*Moonwater*~*
: i'm pro-choice but under certain circumstances. I mean if the girl of any age gets raped, then do it. I mean the kid is gonna have a shitty life and hate theirself. It's better than putting them in an adoption centre, thats basically just getting an abortion anyways. I dont think a girl should get an abortion is they are younger 13-17 and think they are ready for sex and get pregnant. THEN i think they should have to deal with the consequences.
mikeyNZ
: just wondering, if an abortion is murder.. then what happens every month when a women has her period? what about all that sperm which is broken down and made into other cells? im pro-abortion, under controlled and regulated circumstances, of course, if you outlaw abortion women will simply go and do it themselves... often with fatal results. i think it was portugual which bans abortion, they have 40,000 botched home done abortions every year. tell me? is this cool in some way>
§eXyPeNgUiÑ
: yes it should be legal.
punky_tiger
: no it should be totally illegal, its so unhumane, your killing an innocent child, it's not right at all
PORSCHER
: Depends.
dutchpoet
: i think that adoption is a better option but i am pro-choice. i agree witht he whole you cant have an abortion if the baby is old enough to live outside the womb, bcuz thats basically murder but if the girl was like raped or its dangerous to the womens health then thats who its gotta be... if some couple just were too lazy to use a condom then they should at least give it up for adoption but once again, i am pro-choice and i agree with whoever said the whole thing about people doing it in back allys anyways so its safer to just keep it legal
the_poetess
: Legal. One, it's a personal choice. Two, making illegal will only kill more people. Illegality of abortion would let extremist feel more justified in their crimes and would make more unwilling pregnant people do back alley abortions. Also, taking away the option of abortion is intruding on a woman's right. Until we can find a way to take a kid and save it out of womb, no one has any right to say what a woman should carry inside her.
_faded_
: I think it should be legal, but only in some circumstances, for example if the contraception fails (because then the couple obviously didn't want a baby and probably aren't ready for it, but did do what they could to prevent pregnancy), or if the life of the mother is threatened by pregnancy...There's also the issue of allowing abortion if the child is going to be severely disabled that it would have a poor quality of life. But if people are just stupid and slutty and sleep around without using contraception then it's their own fault and they should have to live with the consequences (provided they're over 18, I reckon...Otherwise their education and therefore life in general is really mucked up, and they might not be able to support a baby well...)
tweetygirl
: i think that its wrong.i think if ur old enough to have sex then ur old enough to have a baby
riconoscere
: i think it should be legal because technically i've had it done before. i don't think its right for a law to say that its wrong not to when the person isn't ready for a child
davidsbaby
: I think abortion should be illegal because that's wrong cuz ur not giving a life a chance to live and if it werent meant to live god wouldve made sure. Abortion doesnt make you unpregnant it just makes you the mother of a dead baby.
