Which brings me to my next opinion:


People who think it's "gross" to be uncircumcised are foolish. I'm not, and I proudly say that there is nothing wrong with not having your genitals surgically altered. That folk find it odd to not surgically alter your genitals is an indicator of how bizarre our society is.

you pretty much said everything I wanted to. As a woman, I MUCH prefer uncut, when I see a cut penis I get kind of sad, because I imagine someone cutting off my clitoral hood.

Mutilation is not attractive.

Which brings me to my next opinion..

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I'm sorry that I don't particularly care for what the male penis looks like uncircumcised. This is my opinion, and my personal preference.

I do not feel people who are against circumcision are foolish; I think they are entitled to do whatever their cultural or personal preference is. Yes, I do consider circumcision to be cultural here in America as the majority of our population is circumcised. Most other nations do not have th majority of their population circumcised. Would you tell an african tribe it's stupid to put plates in their ear lobes and bowls in their mouths?

I think placing your own morality on people is foolish, but again that is just my own opinion.

Enjoy your circumcised penis. I'm glad you're proud of your ant eater :stoned:(incase you can't tell that was me throwing in some sassy humor/being friendly.)

:thumbsup:

It reminds me of Oktoberfest.

"What can I get for you frauline? Bockwurst? Bratwurst? Circumsized? Uncircumsized? Would you like a beer with your sausage?"

Wish I could have at least seen the comments about my post. I don't remember saying anything about any certain continent and their grooming habits. I did kind of ramble a bit, so maybe I mis-wrote something to sound like it was a direct insult to a certain continent or something of that nature.

Sorry for any offense I caused, just doing what the thread was put here for. Which is why I still think it is pointless considering there is no discussion allowed because some people are unwilling to open there minds to an opinion that isn't their own.

I am very open-minded though, and would gladly change my mind about any views I expressed as long as someone could give me a good explanation as to why they think my opinion is wrong.

I would very much like to go to the real Oktoberfest one day, I would like to see the home of my ancestors in general though.

But dude; I'm not saying preferring a cut penis is foolish, I'm just saying it's foolish to say "You're gross for not being cut", like some people do. Preferrences are fine, and like you said, we wouldn't bitch at African societies putting plates in their lips; that goes both ways with cut and uncut. I'm sure you'll agree with me that people are foolish when they're are like "OMG! you're not circumcised? That's so gross!"


Now if you'll excuse me, I'm getting mighty hungry and there's an ant hill in my front yard... :D

Gandalf, when it comes to your penis, YOU'RE SOOOOO EEEEEEMMMMOOOO!!!!!!

Just joking! http://boards.cannabis.com/cannabis-...re-so-emo.html

Have you ever seen an African with a plate in his lip laughing at some poor guy with a circumcised penis? Happens all the time. And it's just not right.

Actually, an uncircumsised foreskin helps to protect the penis in certain circumstances, such as when you get your penis caught in a bicycle chain. These are called "circumcision circumstances."

However, our economy needs circumcision. Severed foreskins are recycled into rubber bands for newspapers. So where would we be without it? You should do your part, Gandalf.

Personally, I have nothing against surgically altering your genitals. I've had it done myself. In my case I was not circumcised --- I was supersized.

Do NOT ride your bike on the wrong side of the street into oncoming traffic. You may think you are making yourself safer by seeing the oncoming traffic. But you are actually making yourself less visible to cars on the road and more likely to be in an accident. Statistics bear out the fact that you will be in MORE accidents. It usually happens when a car is waiting at a driveway for a chance to merge out into traffic. They are looking to the left where the traffic is supposed to be coming from. When a gap opens up, they hit the gas, and if a bike rider is going the wrong way, then BAM! flat bike rider!

Also, the law is not on your side if you cause an accident while disobeying the rules of the road. So if a car does run over you when you are riding against traffic, the driver of that car can sue you for damage to his paint, and WIN! It has happened before! Usually a driver will not sue a flattened bike rider directly, but if he makes a claim on his insurance for damage to the car, the insurance company will get the money out of you because you were at fault and breaking the law.

Go with the flow, GreenDestiny! Go with the flow! You do not need to be like a salmon, constantly swimming upstream!

Yeah, I know it's a legal issue. Many years ago I was stopped by a cop for riding in the huge soulder lane, and that's when I first learned about it. I was totally blown away by it.

But in my opinion, there's not enough difference in visibility either way. A good motorist should be aware at all times, as should any pedestrians. Some people run faster than a kid peddaling a slow bike, either way there's still plenty of time to see them, not like they're traveling very very fast on a small motorized vehicle.

I quickly looked up some crash statistics, and yes you're technically right:
Bicycle Crash Statistics
Motorist turning or merging into the path of a bicyclist (12.1 percent of all crashes). Almost half (48.8 percent) of these crashes involved a motorist making a left turn in front of a bicyclist approaching from the opposite direction.
Motorist overtaking a bicyclist (8.6 percent of all crashes). Of these crashes, 23 percent appeared to involve a motorist who misjudged the space required to safely pass the bicyclist.

that's straight up 3.5% more crashes from riding against traffic.

But now taking into account the motorist's fault in statistics:
48.4% of 12.1% is 5.9%, leaving 6.2% of all crashes due to riding against traffic.
23% of 8.6% is 2.1%, leaving 6.5% of all crashes due to riding with traffic

Taking out that variable of motorists failing to look before turning and misjudging distances, those statistics actually show that riding against traffic is better. It's the motorists fault for making the road more dangerous lol.
So really stiffer laws should be put up to keep those crazed road-ragers from running over the bicyclists... so we can freely ride on whichever side of the road that happens to have the clearest path.

eh, basically I think that anything without a motor should be used for going against traffic... bicycles, rollerblades, skateboards, razor scooters, even people wearing those wheelie-shoes. It's all foot traffic... transportation via energy supplied directly by our feet. If we just happen to have some circular objects to aid in our transport, the laws shouldn't have to change.

And then there's those dang old sidewalks... laws for those things are always crazy, some cities dont mind rollerblading and boarding, others ban it.

As much as I hate it, I generally obey the rules of the road as they stand today. Ok, not really, I just do whatever it takes to stay safe in each situation. Safety first, laws second.

That isn't an unpopular opinion it is an American delusion. :D

America did not win the second world war , thats an unpopular opinion based on the fact that Hitler made the fatal error that Napoleon had made by attacking Russia in winter.

Hitler shot himself in the foot with that move.

Without America tying down the Japanese they would have been free to launch an invasion into Russia. Then it would be Russia that would be defeated in a pincer move instead of Germany. Think of that..... Not to even mention our contribution to the western front with our aid we gave great Briton even before we invaded on D-day. We also gave aid to Russia in terms of air support and supplies.

Let's not forget that we lost so many lives over there in normandy that the memorial/burial grounds there has pretty much been declared US soil.

To suggest that the US entering the war did not directly lead to the Allies winning is warped to say least.

That's not to say that America were the ones to win the war, but our involvement did lead to victory (yes there is a difference).


edit: meant to reply to pyschocat.. oops

If it wasn't for the U.S. Europe would be a VERY differant place.

We saved the U.K. and France.

your comment would have any weight if myself or any of the other users quoted even began to imply that we had any involvement with it, and this wasn't an opinion thread.

now bring your condescending attitude somewhere else, thank you

I tried to quote everyone who chimed in on this topic, but somehow some didn't get copied into my comment. So I'm sorry if it came off one-sided. The point I was trying to make was that no one involved with this topic played a part, so there's no point in hashing it over. This discussion sounds to me alot like one person telling another person that he doesn't appreciate him enough for what his grandpa did for the other guy's grandpa. Get over it people!

My Unpopular Opinion is that unless your are over 80 years old, you inherited the world after WWII. So take credit/blame for what YOU or your generation did, and forget credit/blame for what your ancestors did.

Yeah, those Yankees are looking better all the time... :wtf:

Life is better as a comedy than a drama.

We should be grateful for what our ancestors did - most of them, at least.

I think everyone should be pacifists and that war is unnecessary, unless attacked on your home soil. It's not a popular opinion, but it's mine :D

I think most movies are an waste of time.

Action movies are just a lot of exaggerations (or rather absurds), fireballs (the only nice things in it) and uncounted number of murders for the most useless reasons.

Policial films are even worst. Damn the cops! Its enough to have to see them in the real life!

Most suspense movies are fairly previsible (if not obvious)... the only good ones are the very few ones which are really surprising.

Terror movies are usually very weak... a person must be really fearful to be scared by a thing in the screen of a TV (or a theather)... and even if not, most things depicted in this movies are not so scary...

Most scientific fiction movies are just what the name says: fiction. Of course there are some few which shows things that actually could happen in some future, but most of them are plain nonsense.

Dramas are pure masochism. The real life is a drama itself, and a very sad one (nobody ever survives much long in it), so why to ingest more drama unnecessarily?

Comedies usually are pathetic. Most "laughable" things are not so laughable, and the really funny hardly are catch by the movie makers (with some exceptions, of course).

And there are the romantic comedies, that are completly previsible, sometimes very dumb, but sometimes is nice to watch a history with a happy ending...

Anyway, there is no better movie than the one that your life becomes when youre HIGH :stoned::rastasmoke::jointsmile:
