It is more of a pay gape since the jobs women go to on average pay less.

Then the women should try out better paying jobs.

HMBeatlesfan said
However, I think that anything that gets you high should not be legal without a prescription from a doctor.

so Starr Shine? followed up with
High isn’t as bad as drunk. And prescription drugs are far more likely to get you hooked on illegal hard drugs than
marijuana.

And prescription drugs should only be legal if prescribed by a doctor and there’s good reason to that, imagine being able to get Oxycontin or Vicodin off the shelf without a prescription.

Starr Shine? said
What makes drunk better than high?

With alcohol, hallucinations are rare, whereas marijuana is pretty much taken just to see them. I support the use of alcohol and tobacco and if anyone needs a replacement for marijuana, I recommend planting and smoking tobacco, as planted tobacco is better for you than store bought tobacco and marijuana.

Tobacco and achohal are more addictive than marijuana.

So your main problem is hallucinations?

Here’s a pisser offer for me, people who claim they are musicians but don’t use actual instruments. Examples of this include “club music” (AKA that type of music that consists of loops that come to an ascending scale and then a breakdown), modern pop (I dare you to name me a pop song that’s been released in the past 10 years that uses actual instruments and an actual drummer), rap (especially when they suck so hard at singing that they need auto tune). People like Skrillex and Lil’ Wayne shouldn’t be allowed to call themselves musicians, they’re frauds that just steal other people’s music and fondle it and then call it their own. Sure, you try to fit people like Yoko Ono into this definition, but her music was new and inventive and she had people use actual instruments and on top of that, her music was labeled as experimental, unlike those DJ’s who fondle with songs like dogs biting mailmen. You could also try to put some Beatles songs in this definition, but that wouldn’t be right because the few songs where they do use samples (Yellow Submarine , Mr. Kite, etc.) is at a last resort and everything else is legit and even Revolution 9 contains a backing track of vocals, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass, and drums (but to be fair, Revolution 9 is somewhat of a precursor to the modern club music of today).

Every generation comes a new type of music that members of the older generation dislikes claiming it not to be music in some way or other. William F. Buckley in 1964 said

“Let me say it, as evidence of my final measure of devotion to the truth: The Beatles are not merely awful, I would consider it sacrilegious to say anything less than that they are godawful. They are so unbelievably horrible, so appalling unmusical, so dogmatically insensitive to the magic of the art they qualify as crowned heads of anti-music, even as the imposter popes went down in history as “anti-popes.”  It helps a little bit to know that no one thinks they are more of a joke than the Beatles themselves, and one is relieved in supposing that they go to bed at night laughing at their utterly inexplicable success, if solemn at the thought that they must inhabit a world that features themselves.”

Tomorrow Never Knows ‘ didn’t use them as a last resort, samples were integral to the track.

School lockdown drills piss me off. How stupid do you have to be to know that when there’s an intruder somewhere, you should get the hell out, even a preschooler should know that. However, according to modern school systems, f**k common sense because nowadays, if there’s someone in the school who wants to kill you, instead of getting the hell out like a sane human being or even trying to harm the person, schools just want you to hide in the classroom. Holy s**t government, it’s a good thing I didn’t do this as a kid, I mean think about this. If you were in a grocery store and some guy with a gun came in just wanting to kill anybody in his path, would you stay in the store or make a run for it. If I were a mentally ill killer who wanted to shoot up an elementary school, I would go into the classrooms, break open the doors, and find the children and staff and shoot them dead and if I had a friend there who just happened to be a janitor at the school who would do anything for some cash, I would have him break all the locks so they could no longer be locked and if it were a high school and I had a friend who went there who wanted to tagalong, I would have either smuggle a weapon and kill the kids in the classroom while they were in lockdown or unlock the door so I could kill everybody else. The funny part is that the survivors of Sandy Hook survived by not abiding to the lockdown drill standards and instead getting out of the building, yet the school system ignores that and I have to learn from babysitting my friends children that when an intruder enters the school, you stay there. So for any teachers on this forum, don’t have your students do these stupid drills, just have them make a run for it instead.

@HMBeatlesfan, you’ll find this stupid. Not only does my school do that, but if we have a fire drill, we go to the oval. When I asked a teacher ‘what happens if the fire is on the oval, or between us and the oval (very likely)?’ she replied that we should just try to make our way to the oval anyway. 

We have two basketball courts side-by-side, and a gym! Why can’t we use them, for heaven sake?!

How stupid do you need to be to know you should not leave an area that can be secured to run around in some place you don’t know where the shooter is? Of course lockdown is right. You want kids running out where there could be (a) shooter(s). Your suggestion is, Put yourself in a possible line of fire and hope for the best, rather than hunker down in a room you can secure and wait for the authorities to get there.

I think lockdown gives the better odds…

Being in an enclosed space like that may seem like a stupid idea, but it does give you a better chance of survival for various reasons. For one, it’s easier to hear a shooter coming if everything is quiet. That might give your teacher (or school officer if you have one) an opportunity to disarm them if they attempt to come into the room. It’s also faster to evacuate small groups of children a few at a time rather than having everyone run around loudly so that the intruder knows exactly where they are…

I do find it stupid how most schools only have one fire drill plan. Instead of telling students where all the exits are and where they could go if one or more of them were blocked off, they only show you how to get to one exit and tell you not to try to go anywhere else. There actually was a fire at one of my schools when I was younger, and this stupid practice led to some kids getting hurt because they didn’t know where to go when they couldn’t escape through their “assigned exit.”

Not entirely sure how wild mad chaos is the best form of safety and protection in such a situation of a shooting.

I’m all for flexible rules and nothing being cast in stone and buried 10ft in the ground but if there is a gunman on the rampage I’m hiding. No chance I’m running down corridors or across open spaces where I can be shot it.

Plus, playing dead is a great plan when faced with a spree shooter.

If someone wants to run about making noises and getting a gunperson’s attention please do so by going as fast and as loud as possible in the opposite direction from me. As a thank you I’ll buy you a coffee after or attend your funeral – depending on whether you survive obviously, not much point buying you a coffee if you are dead.

This one really pisses me off, a lack of modesty. For females, sometimes they’re too damn lazy to wear pants, so they invented the dress, which would be fine if it actually covered the parts of your body your pants cover, but some dresses are so short, they look like a shirt and you have to see their underwear. For males, put on a shirt, if I walk around on a hot day, I’ll sometimes see men without their shirts on doing yardwork or something. The funny part is that although a female doesn’t have to wear pants and a male doesn’t have to wear a shirt, if a male doesn’t wear pants or a female doesn’t wear a shirt, they get in trouble. I wonder who came up with this logic, some rapper, a drunk courtroom with people who deliberately placed bad votes because they didn’t want to do jury duty, I really wonder. Anyways, men, put on a shirt when you’re outside and girls, if your dress goes higher up than Dorothy’s from The Wizard Of Oz, put on some pants.

Waiting and i don’t mean in queues or stuff in the post.

Sorry to all those who see it as some kind of personality and character boosting privilege of life but it’s a pain in the ass, especially if a) the reality is rarely as good as the anticipation and b) often what you are waiting for never bloody comes.

Sometimes I think im going crazy
But I am waiting patiently

Funny, in some areas, dresses are considered the more modest option.

Modesty is an interesting thing, it changes rapidly with the times. I wonder in 50 years, what the children of today will call non-modest?

What makes me mad is that it’s not okay for women to be shirtless in public. If that were socially acceptable, I would never wear a shirt.
