Me and my friend have been insulted by a girl because we don't agree that casual sex was the best for us but she took it as an attack on her personal life.
We were talking about our friend who had friend's with benefits and we just said it sorta grossed us out. She interrupted us and felt the need to intrude our conversation. We understood if she was into it then whatever it's her life, but she looked at us like we were idiots for not thinking her way of life was "The Only way of life". She over exaggerated things really badly and was quick to call us "Prudes" like it was an insult.
We just said "If not having Friend's with Benefits makes us prudes, then we're glad we're prudes."
That shut her up. Good times. She wasn't that smart anyway. It's a shame because she's a pretty good artist.

Wow... that was a pretty bitchy thing for her to do. Honestly, I wouldn't worry about whether or not she's a good artist though.

Now I'm not saying this to be mean or anything but the way she spoke and such sorta implied she might have had a disability. I noticed this before I found out how bitchy this girl was.

"What we need to know about loving is no great mystery. We all know what constitutes loving behavior; we need but act upon it, not continually question it. Over-analysis often confuses the issue and in the end brings us no closer to insight. We sometimes become too busy classifying, separating, and examining, to remember that love is easy. It's we who make it complicated." - Leo F. Buscaglia (1924-1998) American Psychologist, Author, Educator

Maybe; she could have been some kind of savant (from what you've said about her art).

I have no idea...awha.

My great grandparents (allegedly) come from Ireland, and two of my grandparents come from England, so only two are Scottish. Which means my both of my parent are 'mixed' even though they were born in Scotland.

But I consider myself Scottish*, because I was born here. Your nationality should be defined by the culture from which you were raised, not your bloodline.
And even then, in my opinion, nationality doesn't really matter to me. It's the individual that matters.

*but not really. I feel that, thanks to the globablisation of everything, from TV, to the internet, through to culture in general, I'm a bit distant from 'the culture'. Scotlland has good music. That's about it.

So TL;DR nationality, no matter how you define it, shouldn't even matter.

Well said, Blubber.

I'm American Indian, Italian and German. But I don't go around telling people they took my land or have a mob/make really good pizza. I'm too lazy for stereotypes.

There are awesome people and terrible people in every culture. A lot of people don't seem to realize that.

Okay, I have a mentally-disabled person in my school. I'm perfectly fine with it except for one thing;

Every day, he walks past my lunch table, and feels the urge to rub his hands all over my head.

It annoys me, but what annoys me even worse is when I try to tell him to stop and someone nearby yells at me for being mean to a disabled person.

I mean, the guy is basically molesting my head. I think I have the right to tell him to stop. Just because he is disabled doesn't mean he can just do whatever he wants.

I know how you feel. There's this girl in my school, who I feel really sorry for because she's basically a few steps away from being Stephen Hawkings, who sits in front of me in some classes.
My only problem is that she always, without fail, runs over my toes and occaisionally parks on them.

But I've still not worked up the courage to say anything. I really don't want to insult anyone. But I just know she's going to end up breaking my toes one day.

notify school staff. if he is bothering people consistently everyday, the teachers should stop him, especially if he might be hurting people.

and usually, if someone told me not to be mean to a disabled person for asking him to stop bothering, i'd yell, "fuck off", straightforward and simple, but i'd advise you to say something to the effect of, "he does this everyday, it's very annoying, please understand that i have no rude intentions and just want to be left in peace".

You know that post was in regards to Plasma telling people they couldn't wear "facebattle me, I'm Irish!" shirts because they weren't "really" Irish, right?

Yeah, but it gave me an excuse to post in the Taboo topics thread.
Seriously, I love this thread.
