I get Spanish, Arabic, Mandarin, Cantonese - or other languages that a large population of people speak and can be helpful as kids get older and have careers, etc...but for some reason learning French has always been en vogue and I never got it.

Anyone care to enlighten me?
French and English are the languages of business worldwide. The others that you mentioned, maybe one or more will be one day, but that isn't here.

And why do drivers stop at traffic lights leaving 1-2 carlengths of space between their own car and the one in front of them? Particularly when it means I'm right behind them and can't get into the turn lane that's opening up right next to them?


Because if I need to get around the car in front of me on a hurry, I can easily pull into the other lane.

Me first, what's up with black women who don't shave their legs? It doesn't bother me, and in fact, I am friends with, and have known a few women who don't shave but they have always been a.) white b.) a hippy or gutter punk type or c.) gay. It always throws me off when I see a very well groomed, attractive and nicely dressed black woman with hairy legs. Why do you do it? Is it personal preference? Laziness? Some sort of political statement? And it's not like they are trying to hide it either. . .


You would be surprised how many men find hairy legs attractive. It's supposed to mean you're really good where it matters.


I'd probably be surprised how many men are into scat too. But that doesn't make it ok.

Why can't people who driving giant trucks/cars ever park straight or keep in the lines?

Why do old guys buy convertibles? You are not sexy anymore. Maybe your wallet is though....

French is beautiful. It's not as practical as Spanish in America, but it's beautiful. And with many romance languages (Spanish, French, Italian), if you learn one, you can more easily learn the others. (also don't forget the parts of Canada that speak French.)

I'm with 21:00 and 21:33. I've never understood why a woman would choose to subjugate herself. Catholics, Baptists, Muslims... the list goes on.

I do know female rabbis, so 21:39 is not correct. It's probably not allowed in Orthodox Judaism, though.

Lack of experience. They are planning on turning left and change lanes in advance. And they cannot estimate the distance (in case of stopping at car length).


I sometimes leave extra space in front so that I'll have room to go around the car in front of me if necessary, but I never block the entrance to a left turn lane if possible.

I wonder why people who are in a right turn only lane and not turning right--when they have plenty of room to move their call all the way into the next lane--only go half way and block people behind them from moving up and taking a right on red.


Again lack of experience! They stopped this way and are too scared to move the car. I only started driving three months ago, it makes me red in the face with shame to think about stupid things I did when just got my DL

Why you care about other peoples' decisions, that may be different from your own decisions.


I didn't say I cared (I don't really) I just don't understand it.

I wonder how on earth we let this super pac thing get started and why we haven't eliminated it yet. Who in their right mind thinks it's okay for any candidate to take a large donation from an owner of a large company in exchange for political currency? Isn't this the definition of corruption. And why don't people notice this?
