Woke up, found it was snowing. Took Phoebe to vet's - her cat box got snowed on (and in) and she was unimpressed. Got on bus, after waiting 20 minutes while none turned up, which made me 8 minutes late for me 9.10am appointment. So they made me wait til 9.50, until all of the other animals had been seen to, for being late. How unfair ( Read more... )

That is so rude how they make you wait like that.
I've had that happen before, like you're some sort of pariah, and they're doing you some great favor by seeing you at all... Sheesh.
At least the airlines give you discounts and such when you go on "stand-by" seating. :P

*good luck* with your getting to work and home and all that.

I guess they didnt want to make everyone else wait just because I was 8 minutes late. But even so!

But cannabis isn't the same as alcohol or tobacco.

When you smoke or drink you don't affect people around you, but the smoke from your spliff can get other people around you stoned, which owuldn't be good.

I'm very against it personally :p
Sorry ;)

hang on a minute! of course you affect the people around you when you smoke!

have you never had to stand next to someone smoking, or in the same room, or even downwind of them? ugh. (can't remember if it's downwind or upwind so i am probably wrong, but you know what i mean ;)

I agree with you Katie.. you do affect the people around you, and it's also a lot worse for you than breathing in a little cannabis smoke.

Death penalty: I am for it. Most people’s ultimate fear is death, so I think it might cause people to think. Maybe I am jaded since America seems to have more murderers than high school graduates. I costs so much money to keep these people (who decided to take another life) alive if they are sentenced to life, and they appeal the entire time, forcing the families to relive the experience over and over. I believe in peace, but it is outweighed by victims’ rights ( ... )

Death - of someone kills someone, I don't think the law can be allowed to kill them - 2+2 does not = 5, and all that. If someone in my family was murdered I'd possibly feel differently.

Pre marital sex - really, it's different? even though it's the same man? or did you mean with people you weren't married to?

Martha Stewart - what was the info she sold? :)

Feminist - I kind of see them as taking it beyond equal rights. I am for equal rights but not beyond that, which is why I'm unsure :/ I like periods though, maybe that makes me a feminist?!

death- but you guys don't have as many over there. we are a little more jaded over here. we have so many people in jail for life and our taxes are huge. Why should they be allowed to victimize the rest of the population when they already victimized one person and their family?
sex- BOTH!!! it was very different than with other people and much better with my husband! There is something to be said for someone who pledges to be with you forever!
Martha- she is the "homemaker queen" over here. She had info about her company and another company involved with it and knew the 2nd company was going out of business and told all her friends to bail out of the stock they owned in the company before it went under. very illegal.
feminist- you LIKE periods? crazy! I kinda look at them as a extreme example as well.

Death Penalty: Don't like it. I can't agree with the idea that you must kill in order to prove that killing is wrong. Also, the idea of accidently killing an innocent person would just destroy me.
Abortion: I don't like abortion, but I'm pro-choice. BUT I also believe in regulating it, such as allowing abortion in first two trimesters, but not in the third. Come on, you've had SIX MONTHS to make a decision by then...
Legalisation of Drugs: Um, no. The "because it's being done anyway" idea doesn't fly with me, because then EVERYTHING would be legal. Also, the last thing I need is to get hit in a car by someone who's high.
Censorship: Sometimes it's necessary, but only 1% of the time.
Premarital Sex: There's nothing wrong with waiting, but if you want to, that's fine. Besides, not everyone has marriage as a goal.
Pacifist?: I generally don't like war, and think that a peaceful solution can be found 90% of the time. The other 10% (ie: Hitler), you have to go in and kick some butt. The needs of the many and such.
Bush: I like him as a ( ... )

Death Penalty - yeah exactly, killing someone who kills is not justice, it's just doing the same thing that they did.
Abortion - I think it's only legal before 12 weeks unless the child is deformed in some way.. I may be wrong, but I don't like the idea of abortion after 12 weeks at all :(
