davjohns 1 #29 August 20, 2010 I always see 'narrow minded' as meaning 'doesn't agree with me' and therefore; narrow-minded.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nataly 38 #32 August 20, 2010 Funny thing is, I actually *agree* that it's impressive (no matter the gender), but that's not even the point... Squeak simply seems to have missed the light-hearted nature of the posts made by the "narrow-minded fucktards." What I want to know is why he felt the need to insult everyone who happened to have a sense of humour in all of this!!

Every culture has it's thing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFf6jJBSaQ4 I really think the diversity of activities that human beings participate in really should be celebrated. Looking at some of the moves they make really is amazing. These guys in your youtube were doing a fighting training that goes back thousands of years according to the piece...But the Spartans still kicked their asses at Thermopylae giving the Athenians time to evacuate the city before Xerxes got there to burn it.Perhaps some other forms of training.... that whole paying attention to other cultures was in order Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shah269 0 #45 August 21, 2010 The Persian Vs. Greet battle should be looked in modern context of "Just because you have the numbers and the technology.....you sure as poop better know where and who you are fighting." Sadly the modern leaders of Iran didn't get it for the first few years of the Iran Iraq war and thus why a million died. But yes all of these "sport" be it this pole thing to belly dancing go back a long way. Sure we enjoy them now, but not too far back...this was some serious stuff! Who knows maybe one day guns will be just another funny thing people play with. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.
