    Article: "Charm School" in NYC

    Or post 4,000 times in 4 years on a website devoted to it... I don't think there's anything sad about taking a workshop like that.

    For dogs, China is hell on earth

    Just because these things are bad does not mean other things are not bad, too. Your argument is so desperately flawed.

    Changing your birth name

    HAHAHA that's one of the funniest posts I've read on this board.

    For dogs, China is hell on earth

    The EU purchased them from farmers to destroy them.

    Who do you actually respect here?

    He hardly ever posts anything useful, but seanchai is probably the smartest and most informed person in the Anything Else board. I never read any of the tips or threads that aren't in H&F or AE, but I respect the posters that use proper spelling and grammar. I tend to think they know what...

    For dogs, China is hell on earth

    The issue for me is not that they're being killed (which is ****ty), but the way they're being killed. Seizing people's dogs on the street and clubbing them to death, and making noise to draw them out to beat them to death is bad. Nobody kills cows that way, so the analogy to cows is false...

    For dogs, China is hell on earth

    China present themselves as a first-world country, and also have a long and storied history of totally inept public health projects. For instance, the Chinese government routinely reports that they have eradicated most diseases in their country, reports that are independently disproven by the...

    Miami Vice

    Anyone seen the new film? I thought it was spectacular, though having seen hours and hours of the show kind of tainted it for me, since it's not as good as the original.

    Fashion and style section

    I don't think a fashion/style board would be helpful, because nobody on this board, save a few, has knowledge in that regard.

    can i grow our my hair?

    It will take almost a year before you can wear a full ponytail. About six months till you can wear a half pony, which looks cool anyway. DO NOT GET MAINTENANCE CUTS. They'll always cut too much off, and you don't really need them. They don't make the hair grow faster or healthier.

    Bodyweight Exercises...

    Pullups and bodyweight squats are perfect. When they get too easy, try changing your body position: in pullups, put your legs out in front of you, and try doing one-legged squats. Changing the position changes the leverage of your body, making it very hard. After that, you can add weight if you...

    MLB at All-Star break!

    Red herring: that has nothing to do with the argument that baseball is a popular sport in much of the world.

    FIFA WORLD CUP - Official thread!

    Why would Zidane make that up, then?

    MLB at All-Star break!

    I'm not sure what you're arguing. All those countries I listed, plus dozens more, have some form of organized baseball (which is what I said originally), and many have professional baseball players playing in America. The New York Yankees are the most popular team in the world in terms of team...

    MLB at All-Star break!

    I know what you mean, Metal. Andrew Miller fell to my Mariners at 5th this year, inexplicably, and we passed on him for Brandon Morrow :( More power to Detroit though. They're smart and they deserve it.

    MLB at All-Star break!

    Isiman, the "national sport" is not the only sport popular in each country. A better indicator of the popularity of baseball would be to look at the teams in the Little League World Series. They're from the Netherlands, Japan (the area around Japan is a continent called "Asia"), as well as the...

    So what type of shoes are in?

    Do NOT get Kenneth Cole, unless you want to look like every other American Jackass. Get some brown Frye harness engineer boots; women think they're hot, but they're not too out there. Tough as hell, too.

    can i grow our my hair?

    Shaggy is disgusting and three years ago.. I have to disagree about the mullet; it is the manliest of hairstyles, as well as the most versatile. (Just kidding :))

    can i grow our my hair?

    Since I've grown my hair out, I haven't worn it the same way on consecutive days. Today, I'm wearing a headband (similar to the one worn by Tiago in this year's World Cup, as well as Ronaldinho, Beckham, et al in years past). Some days I'll wear a full ponytail, some days a half ponytail, some...

    anabolic steroids, does anyone here uses them?

    I never said steroids cause cancer...? I posted a study that suggest steroids have harmful effects on the heart. Another thing to keep in mind: a review of the literature in 2005 showed that current studies do not address the effects of the actual quantity of steroids used by athletes and...
