    Top 10 Sci-Fi films of all time

    Lots of good picks already, can't think of anything to add at the moment. Love me some sci-fi! I can't tell if I loved or hated this movie. It stuck with me, I guess that's the important thing.

    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    Looks like a cool place. I asked cuz I live in the area and have never heard of it. I've pretty much quit the gym-thing and focus primarily on martial arts right now (goju ryu karate). It's a great all around conditioner, and I feel totally wiped afterwards. But I can see why adding anything...

    Is this an example of bullying?

    I don't doubt that it's hard. Of course a total and permanent lifestyle change is difficult. The diet/fitness industry makes BILLIONS of dollars telling overweight people that they have the quick & easy solution. As long as people don't want to put in the hard work, they will fail. My point...

    Working out! Fitness! Nutrition!

    When I went to the gym I paid $40 per month at Goodlife. I would assume that a corporate plan would have better rates, no?

    Is this an example of bullying?

    Some good points. True, that by today's standards someone like Marilyn Monroe would be seen as kinda "chunky". And we do currently have some warped ideas as to what constitutes as "fit" when it comes to women, i.e. emaciated (yet most men when asked will admit they'd prefer their women with some...

    Looking For a Job? Must have your M2

    Because for some bizarre reason, marketing firms are under the belief that only women consume yogurt.

    Is this an example of bullying?

    Man. This thing has turned into a media circus. Sure, buddy should've minded his own business and his letter was kinda douchey, but criticism does NOT equal bullying. It rankles me when *everyone* throws around the term 'bullying' any time their feelings get hurt, and it just dilutes the term...

    Is this an example of bullying?

    I don't know if I really buy into the idea that people on TV need to "promote" health by being a certain weight, I mean she's not hosting a healthy eating or fitness show. But I do think when you're a public figure you open yourself up to public opinion and criticism. When people see you on TV...

    Had any good e-coli burgers lately?

    Union reps at the meat plant in question are complaining of staff shortages coupled with faster line speeds: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/from-kill-floor-to-cutting-table-how-bacteria-evaded-detection/article4581327/ Granted, I'm sure they're trying to cover their own *** to...

    Speaking of 'please, think of the children'..

    For those of you who felt like there was definitely a "favourite" sibling growing up, would it had made a difference to you if your mom or dad came right out and said it? Personally, I think it's one of those things that you never say to a kid outright, and keep up the mantra of "I love all my...

    2012 pumpkin ideas

    That's some amazing work Amazon! Considering my general non-talent when it comes to pumpkin carving, I'm sure this year's pumpkin will be yet another subtle variation of this:

    Protect Our Children PLEASE Read

    It was at one point listed in the DSM. But the mainstream psychological community long ago gave up the notion of homosexuality as a mental illness. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality_and_psychology (sorry it's Wiki, but it's a pretty good summary)

    Protect Our Children PLEASE Read

    I've seen this happening amongst some in the homosexuality community. I guess there's a siege mentality that can happen when one isolates themselves amongst a particular group. And of course, it can ultimately defeat the entire purpose of what's they're trying to do, which is to make it a NON...

    Wake the **** up! Vote Obama

    Yeah, they did a pretty good job of alienating women voters. With all the talk of the economy, reigning in debt, yattayatta, the Republicans STILL couldn't muzzle one of their own from saying something completely retarded. Memo to the GOP - don't talk about social issues. You'll just be...

    Protect Our Children PLEASE Read

    That's usually the thought that goes through my head too. Especially when uber-socially conservative politicians end up getting caught with their pants down (literally) in some gay sex scandal.
