Really piss ypu off? It did a lot of military guys who wanted revenge. It pissed me off. This goes back to the Greeks writing about war. Don't give your enemy a reason to fight harder. Posing with the dead only gives more reasons for dissatisfied youth to follow groups like Daesh.

Yes, there had been a rise in Islamic violence especially with the rise of Wahabbism in Saudi Arabia. That said, Buddhists in parts if the East are crushing mussies and xtions; and in India, hindis are doing similar things, mostly to the muslims. Of course there are still xtions out there using their prejudices to push war and violence on others ad well.

You left off my favorite, The Banana Splits. Also, if Atom Ant was here, I'd maybe vote.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Nov 2, 2019:

They are coming - total 60's according to Wikipedia. This is number four of section one. So, keep an eye, most likely next one will have Atom Ant.

Am I allowed to post two blonde jokes in one day?

Athena comments on Nov 1, 2019:

I know a lot of super smart blondes. It must be really weird for them to hear these jokes.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Nov 2, 2019:

I knew a women professional who dyed her hair, which was naturally blonde, because as she said - she got more respect.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Nov 1, 2019:

I will say this - I love Boca chicken patties, with soybean chicken. I dont eat normal chicken patties due to their "nature." And, I'm a meat eater, an omnivore.

This is a good post and needs to be said.

What is the purpose of this site?

SeanPaul91 comments on Oct 30, 2019:

I don't know if this site is a dating site or just a safe space for free thinkers. I'd like to think the latter. But in my experience living in South Dakota, the more I open up to people with my view of things the more our normal interaction change. I haven't been ostracized (yet) but I know it's ...

Beowulfsfriend replies on Oct 30, 2019:

@Shawappa44820 I totally came to the site just for the interaction of folks and ended up in a relationship. Possibly because I never responded to anyone on any dating site, this site made it easy to find someone with whom I connected.

Allamanda comments on Oct 28, 2019:

It's a funny moment, historically, to be asking this - particularly in a forum when we are mainly either US citizens or Commonwealth/UK citizens. In the US you have an antipathy to monarchies and an overbearing religion that intrudes into every level of government in a way that the Constitution ...

Beowulfsfriend replies on Oct 28, 2019:

First off I'm not British, however, I wanted to point out that from where I sit, the British monarchy does employ religion. Under Henry VIII, so very long ago, the Britts created their own breed of Christianity and if one does not conform to said breed, then one can't be in "charge," sitting on the thrown. This came up some years back when bonny Prince Charles wanted to marry (scandalous) a catholic.

With all due respect , I don't recall anyplace in the bible that says , " Thou shalt not masturbate ,"

Beowulfsfriend replies on Oct 27, 2019:

Things don't have to be "in" the bibly, they extrapolate. In this case from some guy who was forced to marry his dead brother's wife and to impregnate her so the kid would be his dead brother's heir. So, while having sex with her, the guy pulled out and "spilled his seed" - thus meaning jahuvi wants everyone knocked up each time a guy orgasms of course and in that case killed the guy.

@TheGreatShadow it has been verified. The guy talked to him earlier, went to bed, and when he got up saw he had a call in his voicemail. Giuliani was talking to an, as far as I know, as yet, unknown person.

If you google "suicide and the brain" you'll find some pertinent results. Like this one https://medicalxpress.com/news/2018-09-brain-images-suicide.html IMO there is no such thing as a "suicidal brain" because people attempt or commit suicide for various reasons. There has been a lot of ...

Yes, no suicide brain. And, as pointed out correct by Matias, multiple possible reasons.

Catholic belief is limbo. Limbo can also hold those who haven't been enlightened. It must be a full place for those born and dead pre 300 adish.

Redheadedgammy comments on Oct 19, 2019:

Ray Thomas was a founding member and the first lead singer. He past away last year in January. I think I have just about everything they have produced, even a few from the UK that I got from a friend there. I've loved their music since the 60's, thanks for sharing this one.

Well, that is Denny Laine. Lead guitar and lead singer on this song.
