opinions.

opinion |əˈpinyən|nouna view or judgment formed about somethingnot necessarily based on fact or knowledge.
Everyone has different opinions on things. It could be anything. The only thing thatfrustrates me is when people get overly defensive about their opinion, challenging yours if it is different and stating that everyone else's is wrong.
Upon recently watching Shutter Island, my parents had conflicting opinions, and I agreed with my mum, not to the displeasure of my dad because he said your opinion is what you think. I was glad to not be faced with a scenario similar to this:A: Yeah I don't think he was crazy.D: He clearly was.A: How do you know? I mean, the dialogue and stuff make me think he wasn't. D: Look, he was crazy okay? You're wrong because of this this this and this.A: Well fair enough, that's what you think. We can't exactly prove which is right or wrong.D: What the hell are you talking about, you're wrong he was definitely crazy!A: *starts yelling* LOOK I KNOW THAT'S WHAT YOU THINK BUT UNLESS YOU GOTALK TO THE FUCKING DIRECTOR YOU WON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. So we canonly wonder.D: Just shut up now. You're inferior intellect annoys me.
Well wouldn't that be excellent. For those who've seen Shutter Island, we understand that the ending is quite open-ended. It's one of those movies that makes you really think. I even went on to websites and researched what the ending meant, but I got no solid answers.
Everyone has their own morals, understandings of perceptions of our surroundings. We formulate opinions to come to conclusions about certain things. But once someone challenges us and says our opinion is wrong, especially when there is clearly no answer, we are left lost and feeling stupid.  Well I do anyway. 
These kind of people annoy me. Very much. I want them all to be mauled by lions. Maybe that's a bit far. But it shows how much they annoy me.As many things annoy me. Oh yes. They are in my Top 5. 
And what is up with this stupid indenting crap going on in my post.Note to self: No more copy and pasting from the Mac dictionary.

BOYCOTT AMERICAN WOMEN
Why American men should boycott American women

http://www.boycottamericanwomen.blogspot.com/

I am an American man, and I have decided to boycott American women. In a nutshell, American women are the most likely to cheat on you, to divorce you, to get fat, to steal half of your money in the divorce courts, don’t know how to cook or clean, don’t want to have children, etc. Therefore, what intelligent man would want to get involved with American women?

American women are generally immature, selfish, extremely arrogant and self-centered, mentally unstable, irresponsible, and highly unchaste. The behavior of most American women is utterly disgusting, to say the least.

This blog is my attempt to explain why I feel American women are inferior to foreign women (non-American women), and why American men should boycott American women, and date/marry only foreign (non-American) women.

BOYCOTT AMERICAN WOMEN!
