Is Mark Zuckerberg the New Bill Gates? (News Bloggers)

Oct 25th 2007 11:46PM Dan-

Facebook isn't confusing, but now that everyone's pages are cluttered with applications (like Superpoke, Pets, etc), it is hard to find certain things, like the wall.

Like I said before, it was so much better when it was simple. Less is more.

Is Mark Zuckerberg the New Bill Gates? (News Bloggers)

Oct 25th 2007 11:07PM Facebook was so much better when it was only for college students like me, and not open to high schoolers and their mothers. Now, it's just like myspace with all of the applications. It should've been kept simple.

Also, what is the sense in buying pictures to send as "gifts" to friends? You pay a dollar for a gif image.

Well since the whole world knows that you're pro gun control, why don't you tell this to the families of the college students killed at Virginia Tech? If one person had a concealed weapon, that person would've saved so many lives.

Let me ask you this since you are a woman: Have you been to a shooting range and actually learned how to shoot a gun?

...Didn't think so....

Read what you actually see, not what you want to see.

And I don't have to worry about being raped, because I have a permit to carry a concealed weapon.

Sep 28th 2007 6:34PM Okay Lisa, you obviously didn't read my post.

I said it increases your chance of being raped. And if you don't think that, well, you're wrong.

And self defense courses won't work, if the man is armed.

Mansour is a common Chaldean last name (the spelling and I know many Chaldeans with that last name), however, I did take into account that it may have a different origin. Therefore, in my second post, I apologized if that person was not Chaldean.

Thank you for confirming my second post.

I never said that. I said that if she weren't out participating in risky activities (sneaking out late at night and lying to her parents about her whereabouts), drinking, etc., she wouldn't have to anticipate being raped.

If you don't think that these factors increase a woman's chance of being raped, you are extremely naive.

I live on a college campus, and my chances of being raped are reduced since I do not drink alcohol, attend frat parties (let's face it, frat guys try to get girls drunk in order to have sex with them), and go out alone at 3am.

And if you don't attend a university that is more than 2 hours away from your house, I suggest you rethink posting a counterattack.

Sep 28th 2007 4:20PM And Sam, if I'm really a bigot, how come I know that Chaldean is a nationality, more so, a way of life and not a religion (as you erroneously stated)?

It seems like you are the one who's a bigot.

Sep 28th 2007 4:18PM To all of you who backed up your arguments against my post with ad hominem attacks, I am Chaldean. How else would I have recognized the last name?

And what TommyG said is true. Fortunately, my parents aren't that way and have encouraged me to attend an institution of higher learning, which is highly ranked instead of marrying a doctor and going to the salon everyday gossiping about people. I only know 2 Chaldean girls here at my university (via Facebook) and their parents have the same views as mine.

I don't drink, party, and I always let my parents know where I'm at and what time I will be back when I'm out at night with the girls. If the first poster didn't sneak out of the house and lie to her mother about where she's going, or didn't date, she doesn't have to anticipate having an expensive phone with the rape alarm.

She makes the Chaldean girls who follow the rules (like me) look bad to other Chaldeans and other nationalities.

In closing, I just want to say to the haters: Life is so short. Instead of focusing on bringing others down, use that energy towards something positive.
