Title: What Concerns You? The Ultimate General Discussion
Post by: Halo on June 28, 2008, 09:30:07 AM
Some people think the only problem with threads starting with general is they're too general.  They get too massive.  They get too ... general.

But, as the numbers prove, many people swarm to General threads.  No more hijacking accusations.  Anything goes.  Wonder as ye wander.

Even so, General threads usually have still been limiting, confined to General This or General That.  Not this one.  This is General Anything and Everything.

What Concerns You?  Have at it -- let those fingers fly.  For example:   

If troops are withdrawn before 2052, will newly passed educational benefits legislation including their families jeopardize future social security solvency not to mention 100-year-old aircraft that need replacement? 

If babies are given commemorative firearms at birth, should the states or the federal government guarantee lifetime ammo supply in that caliber? 

If the Mars lunar rovers activate dormant life that warps to Earth tracing the rovers' trajectory, will the Electoral College become superfluous?   

Why did Oprah abandon her 43rd radical diet and transplant her head onto Nicole Kidman's body? 

Will the Supreme Court overturn bans on gun stores, bars, and daycare centers within 25 miles of each other?     

Are Aces High posters a sleeper force for an unnamed governmental agency? 

Go ahead, post your General concerns.  Unleash those repressed worrisomes unmanageable in single topic threads.  Become part of the first thread to reach 5-figure inputs and 6-figure viewers.    :aok

Who makes the ovens for the Keebler elves?
How do you spell M&M?
What is the number for 911?
Are Al Gore and Tom Cruise secret lovers?
Why is canned lemonade made with artificial flavoring and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?
Who let the dogs out?
If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one around, how may toothpicks will it make?

 :huh

None...the environmentalist will block any attempts to remove the fallen tree from the woods.

ok.....I'll be odd man out and be serious..

the moral decay of our nation........and it's subsequent destruction of our country.

everyone feels entitled.......greed and corruption.....everyone is fat and happy..........everyone thinks the government is the answer to our problems....nobody takes responsibility....everyone is feigning being offended.....honesty and hard work have become laughable traits....God is being systematically removed from everyting....everyone worships celebrities.....kids are not being tough science and math.......public schools are broken........parents are no longer being parents.......the patriotism and genuine pride in our country that I saw as a kid is now considered a joke, or at the very least, a thing of the past to most americans.

In short........all signs lead to our eminent death as a nation...sooner than most may realize.

I kind of miss what I saw as a kid....men wore suits and hats and ties...ladies in dresses...just to go out to dinner.  that feeling of self respect and respect for others is dead and gone.  God help us all.

Yeah, what IS killing the bees?  And will this become the plot in another horrible movie by M Night Shamalamadingdong?

Who's on first?  What's on Second?  I don't know's on third base... and steroids.

If Blue Raspberry Icees can turn my poo moss green (and they can), does that make them acceptable St. Patty's Day fare?

Sure Mr. T "pitty da foo", but does he ever do anything to "help tha foo"?  Where's the compassion?

I'd be hard pressed to add or subtract from that.  I feel the same.

I worry that the country as a whole is due to get taken out as it sits on it's cellulite dimpled arse, bouncing silicone in everyone's face while Botoxed half-grins barely move faces as they read the latest copy of People.

Not on your life.
I hate suits and despise ties.

creeping socialism and loss of individual freedom.

An Ayn Rand novel or orwell's 1984 used to give us nightmares..  Now we are living in them.

Eyesight fades, the bend and snap of youth has gone, a lot of conscious effort to do simple things creeps into daily life.
I despise the idea of limitations, and yet they creep in, a little bite at a time.
Decades still to come, a list of things I should do every day that I just never do.
I feel the 'Golden Years' are a crock.

And yet.. the close smile of my Lady.
Years of shared everything.
Grandkids.
Flying.
Drag racing.
The enthusiasm of the young as you exchange ideas and see them 'get it' and run with it.
Every time the Vette fires up.

..and 187mph on a deserted, very nice road, in the early morning sun.

Golden.

i have an idea, lets start planing the new gov. i mean i feel like you, about our current gov./society
so maybe even a new thread about the next gov. of the U.S. what it should be , what it can and cannot do,
 a constitution written in plain English as we speak it today instead of  , "lawyer speak" so that our courts are not tied up with trying to figure out what the definition of "is" is! ( unless we decide not too have courts at all  :huh :huh)
