| If this site is so inactive then why is this thread so popular :lol: Good point. The alien that represents WrongPlanet.net -- that green alien at the top of the webpages -- just spoke to me a few minutes ago, and he/she/it said: "Excuse me, I'd like to comment on this discussion about whether ... |

| I'll admit I've been thinking in terms of the user interface, not the underlying database. it dawns on me that could be "interesting" with respect to how the data is stored...it's probably stored in an individual database field? I could see how that could be a problem. An individual check... |

| The simplest solution might just be a simple "describe it yourself" one-line text entry. ... Personally, I'd prefer just the one-line blank field for a description - at least it would provide an opportunity to be precise.. This sounds like a good simple solution. As people already mention... |

| More like a mind f**k. I believe that describing it as "a mind f**k" is an extreme exaggeration, but even if someone does post a mind f**k in this thread just for fun (in a harmless manner), then it would be on-topic -- it would fit the OP's theme. The OP mentioned liking Jack Napier . Do... |

| Just speak your mind or don't say anything at all. WP's rules need to be respected. It would've been wrong to just immediately post my opinion on the OP's question, because it could've come across as a personal attack on the OP -- unintentionally. To make it clear that no personal attack is intende... |

| When you say that, I have no complaints, but I've noticed many examples of other people in society who say the same or similar as you just said, then proceed to label truthful opinions as "hate speech". The common definition of "hate speech" has morphed into: "Hate speech is... |

| Sure, but it's difficult because how can you expect the forum moderators to know whether everything that people say is a lie or the truth? Every day around the world, millions of normal people accuse truthful people of spreading lies, and vice-versa. Often it takes a long time to research something ... |

| that wouldn't mean those men would automatically be harmless. For all we know, they could do something out of fear. And of course, it applies the other way around, too. I agree. That's because fear/anxiety triggers the primitive "fight or flight" response in people. When a man encounters ... |

| To my understanding NYC is great for men and lousy for women. The worst for men is Silicon Valley e.g. San José or Sunnyvale. This makes sense if you mean men who work in a technical job in Silicon Valley. For men in other jobs in Silicon Valley, Silicon Valley might actually improve their chances ... |

| Then what's the point of your post? How is it helpful for the OP? It's a way of softening the blow of delivering bad news or the painful truth, instead of just slamming it in someone's face all in one big painful hit. Too often, NTs flip out like mad hatters when the truth is delivered to them in o... |

I agree, it's worthwhile trying out a different town, especially if self-improvement/learning hasn't worked for some people. |
