What's on your mind?

[MehGuy]

Lol, do I seem like the type to leave myself vulnerable and took advantage of?

I don't know you well enough to say. Lol.

Maybe you're strong enough to adopt a mindset, but many others are not.

Wrestlemania has been excellent tonight. Plenty of surprises and great matches. Sadly, this might be the Undertaker's last match, who is really the only reason why I got into wrestling as a kid/teen. I've followed him all these years and I'll probably be done when he retires.

The best ever.

Undertaker is still around? Huh.

Christianity has greatly influenced my way of thinking. Even now as an atheist. Growing up as a child and being exposed to the violence and utter ruthless honesty about human beings made me grow up pretty fast psychologically/mentally.

the violence?

I agree. Being disillusioned about the fallen nature of humanity has influenced me as well.

But in more ways than one.

1. I know not to be naive about people and their motives. (the televangelists assisted with that
2. I know not to expect people to be perfect (and I don't mean perfect perfect. I know not to expect people to get an A or a B, if that makes sense). And be more forgiving because I am not perfect either.
3. there was a third point, but I don't remember... Darn my old age. maybe it will come to me.

The violence often written about in the Bible I mean, lol.

oh ok. You had me worried about you.

I need to do my Thermodynamics homework... but I can't get motivated.

Also, Thank you, MehGuy, for this civilized and polite conversation. I would not have been able to have conversations like this on previous forums I was heavily involved in without people resorting to petty insults (Newgrounds) or being permanently banned by power hungry moderators because because I didn't agree with everything they said (Rapture Ready).

All praise be to God! I got my license. 100% pass! I don't know why I held off for so long.

I'm currently scouring the internet for puzzle framing instructions, as well as feeling pretty disgusted with my weight as of late.

I like Mark Calaway, just not the "Undertaker" gimmick. I preferred him during the early 2000's when he was much more himself. The American Badass thing really worked for him.

After the brand split I didn't see much of him because I only really watched Raw. Which was a shame, because looking back now I can see how much of a genius Heyman was/ is.

I ran a red light on my first test.

Five minutes in...

Sick of people talking about Wrestling today. One man asked if I was into wrestling, and I said "no.". And he just gave me this offended look..

Like come on.. lol.

About to get some doozies (sp?? Lol) of some storms. Prayers would be awesome!

Also day 3 of exercising (30 day program) went great so far.

So happy to see Youtube becoming more bland and PG rated. Seems like the whiny SJWs and old media has pressured Youtube to become censor happy, and to mess with other people's channels.

Really.. the monopoly Youtube has on uploaded video needs to end..

I don't blame them. YouTubers are incredibly toxic people. If there's a discussion, you can just agree to disagree agreeably.

Now if it's video content you're talking about, then yes that is a problem.

If you're German, you can use MyVideo.de but don't expect to find Nazi-related content.

If you're Japanese, you can use Nicovideo.jp. It's kawaii, trust me.

There's also Vimeo, Dailymotion, among others. Just remember: Microsoft had a near complete monopoly on personal computers until 2007. Apple then started to slowly take over the industry.

Depends what you mean by "toxic". I'm a big proponent of free speech. So yeah, even the people others deem "toxic" should have a voice.

Something as big and socially important as Youtube should be forced legally to comply to those guidelines.

I've heard people throw around the site "myvideo". Never heard of it before.

I'm mean toxic as in asking you if you were born with an extra chromosome just because I disagree with you on something. YouTube is notorious for Ad Hominem attacks and petty insults in any conversation imaginable.

Agree to disagree agreeably. No need to act like kindergarten kids fighting over which power ranger is the coolest after skipping nap time.

I've heard people throw around the site "myvideo". Never heard of it before.

Like I said, it's a German website. If I could speak German, I would love to browse the site and see some German pop culture.
