According to Wikipedia, Google Glass = A wearable computer with an optical head-mounted display (OHMD) that is being developed by Google in the Project Glass research and development project, with a mission of producing a mass-market ubiquitous computer. Google Glass displays information in a smartphone-like hands-free format, that can communicate with the Internet via natural language voice commands.

Then I read this story about a woman getting a ticket, extra for wearing this.

Do you think people should be able to drive while wearing this?

Broke up cause she was emotionally cheating.

I haven't contacted her in a few months.

She STILL ignores/blows off any form of contact. You'd think she'd be able to act reasonably friendly/normal now.

What do you think the reason is?

Do you believe men have become much more feminine and soft compared to previous generations? You hear women complaining all the time how there aren't any real men anywhere.

They have done studies on mental health of different cultures around the world, and the HEALTHIEST ones are small tribes where *shocker* men have ritualistic fighting and do things like hunt wild animals to grow up.

And then you look at our culture, where ANY kid fighting in school results in punishment and suspension/expulsion(because the teachers are 98% female and women believe any violence is the devil). You have women raising boys without a father figure and then the statistics *shocker* show that these men have the most problems in life. Is it any wonder that men have become emasculated wimps? The rugged tough guy, is usually the guy that got out of jail, and also happens to get laid more than 95% of the rest of guys out there because he has this alien thing *confidence* which he developed by breaking rules and taking risks, telling people exactly what he thinks instead of sugarcoating sh*t like everyone else does (the reason nice guys /girls fail) and not being insecure about every opinion/decision he makes.

Now its more important to "be nice" than to be honest, we have stupid bullsh*t telling everyone that "everyone's a winner" etc etc to inflate peoples egos into narcissism by "protecting their feelings", but what were actually doing is taking the easy route of lying to them instead of telling them the truth. The psychologists seemed to forget the common sense that competence is what creates confidence, not vice-versa. link

Do you think our culture turns men into softies?

I was thinking about this because the NFL season is starting up this week! 8-)

1) Which season of the year is your overall favorite to watch sports?

2) What is going on in the world of sports that makes this specific season your favorite out of all the others?

Voted and reply as much as you like, using the numerical system above to organize your response if you wish to do so.

Just wondering and stuff.

How often do you brush your teeth?

Here is the hypothetical situation:

You work in a large city, but too far from where you work to walk, and there is no parking so you must find your own way each day, other than driving yourself. Your options are the subway or a taxi.

The taxi costs $23 per day (one-way, so another $23 coming back).

The subway costs only $1 per trip, however there is also a considerable amount of crime on public transportation. Statistically speaking, you will be robbed twice per year. If you carry around a $50 in your pocket at all times, specifically for the robbing, when it takes place, your chances of walking away unscathed are exactly the same as the chances of not getting an injury in a traffic accident (while in a taxi).

Assume the bandits are plural and armed, so heroics on your part are not an option.

Also assume 250 working days per year.

Or school?

Maybe you had an OK or average day at work or school and you get home. if one of these five incidents were to happen, which would be the worst for you?
