Breast Feeding in Public
I made this post on help.com to get different view points and have a discussion.
Do you think shop owners should be allowed to outlaw it in their store/cafe if they’re afraid it’ll bother customers? Or if they’re so worried, should they have to provide a couch or chair in some place private for them?
What do you all think? :) Thanks!
I also put this up on Yahoo answers. Everyone pretty much agreed with me, but here are the links.

Breast feeding in public?
I think it’s totally fine as long as you’re careful no one sees anything, by using a towel or a blanket or something. But some people just think it’s disgusting and is even outlawed in some places, which I think is ridiculous. I think the law should say ‘it’s fine, so long as you hide your titties’.Do you think shop owners should be allowed to outlaw it in their store/cafe if they’re afraid it’ll bother customers? Or if they’re so worried, should they have to provide a couch or chair in some place private for them?

More Important Blurbs
Some more help replies I'm proud of, lolz.
The first thing, about everyone leaning on you but you having no one… have you ever tried leaning on them? That’s what friends are for… and if they don’t let you lean on them than they’re not great friends. Every relationship must be win-win, or else you must drop the people from your life and never look back.
About your looks… attractive people have the same self-esteem problems that anyone does. Like money, attractiveness is relative and if you’re hotter than your friends, at that stage you start comparing yourself to people in the media, the ones that that have had the living guts Photoshopped out of them.
In other words, they’ve adjusted to the experience of being attractive the same as our high income earners have adjusted to having money; they just pick other flaws to worry about. Sure, if you used the magical artifact up there to become Angelina Jolie tomorrow, you’d notice the difference over how you’re treated now. But if you were born Angelina Jolie, you’d have no way of grasping it, the same as right now you don’t realize what it’s like to live life with some kind of horrible deformity.
You know how when the hot girl at the bar tells an unfunny joke, all the guys laugh anyway? Or when the office stud makes a mistake, the female boss laughs it off?
Attractive people live in a world where most feedback they get is bull. The compliments mean nothing–they’ve learned that’s just the sound people make when they walk by. That’s why studies show they tend to dismiss the genuine compliments they get in other areas (their work, personality, sense of humor, creativity) because it gets lumped in with the same counterfeit flattery they’ve been getting their whole lives.
I also know you want a boyfriend, but seriously don’t worry about it. You just have to understand that the goal of each desire is to bring happiness. So each time you find yourself wanting something… ask yourself if it will really make you happy, or just bring you pleasure. You must understand the difference between happiness and pleasure. Pleasure cannot be sustained beyond the activity or object, happiness can. It is also important to understand that “happiness” is something that can be pursued and obtained. Let me tell you, it is not. No matter what life situation you’re in (provided it’s not something extremely horrible like being chained in a kidnappers basement or starving to death Africa) the amount of good days and bad days you have will not change. Our brains are programmed to want more more more because that’s how we as animals in the wild survived. But we’re not in the wild anymore, we can not focus on thriving instead of just surviving. So no matter what goal you reach, it’ll never be enough.
So how, then, do we be over all happy? It relies %100 and I MEAN %100 on attitude. You feel badly about not having a boyfriend or not being white because that is how you CHOOSE to think of it. But if you realize that, if you be patent and know that a great man will come along one day, you’ll be content and not worry about it. You’ll know that your life would not improve in any way if you had white skin. In fact, you’d be laying in the sun all day trying to be tan. White is not hot, that’s why we have to work at being darker unlike some other lucky people (like Hispanics, for example) who are born that way.
Dose any of that make sense?
If you go to a department store, the women behind the counters will give you a make over and tell you exactly what you need. Otherwise, go to the grocery store and discreetly open the bottle and rub some on your wrist.. if it matches then it’s close enough. That’s what a lot of women do since department stores are more expensive =P lolz.
OK, make sure you go on a Wednesday morning if at all possible. That is when there will be the least amount of people and therefore the most amount time for them to pay attention to you. Avoid going later in the day, the closer to closing time the worse because they’ll be scrambling to make their daily sales quota and pressure you into buying things, so you’ll probably end up spending more than you need too. Make sure you tell them weather or not you’re really planning on buying today, they’ll like that a lot because there’s almost nothing worse than spending time and resources on someone only to find out they’re not serious, so it’ll be a nice thing to do to just take that little worry away from them, like a good deed. All right! That’s about all you need to know, good luck and have fun!

Uchiha x Blonde
Part 1
It all happened so suddenly. The man he had admired since attending the ninja academy, the one he thought he hated for so long. The one he had become practical brothers with... then nearly lost to the temptations of revenge and evil. The one he had chased for years, trying to save him from that inner temptation that almost led to bother their demise, was standing here in the shade of a blooming sakura tree. His open chested shirt showing the chiseled perfection like marble. No matter how much hate he had built up in his heart, the love of one boy shone through like a light in a forest of darkness.
"Naruto..." He said in a deep, sexy voice. "You have really inconvenienced me." This was just like him, putting his feelings as negatively as possible.
"Sasuke, is this really why you've returned?" Naruto asked. Sasuke had come back out of the blue, claiming he loved the blonde boy. However he was suspicious of the Uchiha, and rightfully so. After all, you don't just get everything you ever wanted and more right out of the blue, do you?
"I'm afraid so." He leaned against the tree, his jet black hair softly blowing in the wind. He started to have second thoughts about coming here. He didn't say anything else, just looked in some random spot in the distance.
Naruto blushed, Sasuke had just given him a love confession. Having never been in this situation before, he didn't quite know how to respond. The thing he could think of was another love confession... but how do you go about doing that? Sasuke was acting like this was no big deal. But it was, it was a very big deal indeed. The blonde found himself feeling angry now, how could someone play with another person's feelings like this? It wasn't fair! "I'm not just some robot you can do whatever you want with ya know!"
Sasuke looked up at him, surprised at the sudden seriousness of Naruto's tone. "What do you mean?" He asked, finding himself hoping he hadn't hurt the boy in some way... then feeling almost disgusted with himself for hoping such a pointless thing. But was it pointless...? The old Sasuke would have said yes, but things were different now... he no longer could ignore the throbbing in his heart.
"You think you can come here, confess your love then just stand there like it's no big deal!??" Naruto said angrily. "How can you just play with someone's emotions like that??" He felt himself start to cry, but held back as hard as he could. He would NOT let Sasuke see him like that!
Sasuke looked at him a bit surprised for a second. Little outbursts like these were nothing unusual for Naruto, but this one actually made him feel an emotional disturbance. But how could he properly show him how he really felt? Sasuke had no experience in this department and didn't prethink about any sort of plan.. he was on his own here, having no honest to gawd clue what he was doing. "Naruto..." He couldn't think of anything to say, in fact he didn't even know if Naruto returned his feelings. "I, uh... I don't mean to be cold. I'm just not... experienced with this sort of thing." He looked down, feeling bad that he had hurt Naruto.
The blonde immediately felt bad for snapping at him like that. It wasn't his fault... he just didn't know the proper way to show someone you love them. He took a few steps forward, to which Sasuke looked up at, and stood barely a few inches from his face. "You were my first kiss, that time was an accident. But the second time doesn't have to be..." He leaned in and tilted his head slightly, gently pressing his lips against Sasuke's.
At first the Uchiha didn't know what to do. He stood there, at first motionless with shock... but after a few seconds he found himself relaxing, kissing him back. In his head, he thought 'what the hell am I doing!?' but his body moved on its own as he placed his hand on the back of Naruto's head, and other around his wast.

I am SO SICK of advertizements plaguing my life!
This was a post I made on help.com. Below are the post and the replies.
This is why I gave up graphic design… no, I didn’t give up on it, I ran the f-uck away from it! How could i live with myself knowing I actively contribute one of the most obnoxious poisons of our time?
You can’t even watch an internet video anymore without frequently being interrupted by some stupidass commercial. Is you tube REALLY that much in desperate need for money? Sometimes there’s even a little arrow on the bottom of the video reminding you of that ad you xed out of that WON’T FREAKING GO AWAY.
If everyone became emotionally healthy, the economy would collapse and never recover… being a consumer is a life of hunger that can never be satisfied. Nothing is good enough, nothing can satisfy the hunger of the modern consumer. That’s why they’re called “consumers”. And behind the faces of of those big evil companies making these commercials.. are poor souls who are honestly no different from the rest of us. They’re after your money so they can hand it over to other companies, so the people from those companies can hand over the money to another big company…
Oh how I wish I could see the day when people stop this vicious cycle of misery and greed. Virtually every religion and philosophy in existence warns about greed and has some law or rule stating you should stay away from it… greed is the root of virtually all the other 7 deadly sins (even if you’re not catholic, you have to agree those are best avoided).
Sadly… that day may never come.

Anime Review: Chi's Sweet Home
This has got to be one of the most freaking adorable animes I've ever seen!! It's about the adventures of a little kitten named Chi. She is so adorable! However, she was named after pee, which I think is gross. This anime also confused the hell out of me when it comes to the Japanese language, but I suppose that'll never change!!
It started as a manga which I found at the book store. I was delighted to find an anime of it (I'd rather read, but watching is more convenient). However, all of them seem to have been mirrored, and weather the author wrote them left to right on purpose I don't know, but it doesn't really make sense if she did.
When I found out that the demographic for this anime is men age 20 - 40 I was shocked! Why on earth would men of that age want to watch the adorable adventures of a little kitten? However, from episode one something DID feel a little off about the whole thing... and I think that's what it is. Why would you waste something so appealing to girls of all ages on men who would probably much rather watch something else anyway? But... this IS the country that sells canned vaginas in vending machines so... who knows.
Adult men totally get off to this
Each Episode is only about 3 minuets long, which makes it really easy to watch though the starting can get a little annoying. And... other than that there isn't much else to say. I give it 5 out of 5 stars! It's adorable, fun to watch, but the demographic they aim it at makes it seem a little off. In any case, I loved it!
