Topic | So this private college has a mandatory patriotism class. |
dancer62 10/30/17 12:09:38 AM #52 | DistantMemory posted... http://nypost.com/2017/10/25/usa-101-college-creates-mandatory-patriotism-class/ Trying to figure out "rifle marking". Is this rifle making? Or marksmanship? Or something else entirely? I have the mental image of a class busily decorating their rifles. Perhaps choosing competition colors, the way you personalize your kung fu weapons for tournaments. --- If ballet was easy, it would be pointe-less |

Topic | Women are physically weaker and more emotional than men |
dancer62 10/27/17 4:14:20 PM #78 | GhostGiblet posted... Addendum to my post since I can't edit it anymore: I do think the phrase "more emotional" is a loaded one and wouldn't use it Especially since men are much more emotional and at the mercy of their hormones. Irrational anger, lack of tolerance for frustration, and aggression are much more typical of the male of the species. --- If ballet was easy, it would be pointe-less |

Everybody knows where to find picturesque horsedrawn cabs in the tourist district, everybody knows somebody who played Wii Fit during that craze or bought a DS or LeapPad for their child.
