I would think that having a communist love partner would probally be really cool, as they would not want you to support the capitalist regime.

You would never have to provide material goods for birthdays, anniversaries, or other holidays. HOWEVER, as cool as this may sound, they will ALSO not provide YOU with any such bonuses.

Sometimes I wonder about Smurfette. Everyone in her socialist/communist society has a job that provides everyone in the community something equally. Since she is the only female of the village... ...whats her occupation? So... ..you said your GFs a commie right?....

You wanna know what sucks? I totally took a soci class last semester, and like half the class was spent on talking about "verstehen." I remember because I was always misspelling it until I saw it up on power point. But what really sucks is that I totally dont even remember what it means, or who even developed it... ...but Im pretty sure I probally wrote something on it...

...BTW, I got a B in the class

Do you go to UNT?

she is a communist, and I own 2 businesses that makes me a capitalist. makes for some good arguements.

I am doing sociological research at the university of north texas. fun stuff writing literature reviews and sorts. if you spent alot of time talking about verstehen, you likely had an instructor who was in love with Max Weber. most sociologist spend their lives kissing one of three asses, Marx, Durkheim, or Weber.

Sounds like shes the winner, and youre the loser. Depending on how your relationship works, you're allowed and expected to provide all the goods and services provided by capitalism, while she sits on her butt and makes you feel bad for it. Hm... Note to self: Pretend to be a commie only when Josh is around

I can't exactly call her lazy, as a true commie knows that you must still provide the community she serves some form of compensation that benifits society as a whole. Picking up litter for no money, would be a good example. I think its cute how anyone would ever consider communism as working system. Yes, its a great idea IN THEORY, but it simply doesnt work. It works with smurfs, but humankind simply cannot keep it functioning as there will always be greed.

Yeah, my teacher spoke about all those, but I cant even remember her name. The class was SOCI 4000 Sociological Theory, I could probally tell you Friday though if I still have my old notes.

Yes, I wanted to say that her first and last name started with an "S" I had trouble paying attention because almost all in-class discussions reminded me of The Boondocks

In terms of size, the best way to compress would probably be to save using the xvid codec and drop the frames per second to 15. If you have Vegas you can time grow/shrink a clip, I think just by shift-clicking the end of it and dragging it where you want it to go. You can do it in Premiere also, but it's more of a pain in the butt. :P

Wicked fun, isn't it? Sweet Child of Mine rocks! The hammer-ons and pull-offs are about a F***-ton easier, too. Unfortunately, that seems to make the Hard level way more Hard, at least to me. I got to the last level on Hard on the first one without ever practicing the songs - on this one I'm just over halfway through and I have to stop and run through the Practice mode. I finally beat Texas Flood on Hard this past weekend, though, that was cool.

We also picked up Singstar Rocks! this past weekend before I got sick. I have to say, it's fun, but may reveal things about you that you didn't want others to know.

Hellz no. Im doing General Studies, and have one class left for my bachelors. Yeah, shes a fun teacher, so much of what we talked about applied to the show that I was very close to linking her to youtube so she would see... ...but since they say the N word a lot, I got scared. We even discussed in class how among black folk it may be used as a term of indearment, and how if a white person said it it means ignorant ****.... ...which also had an episoide related to that.

lol, yeah... two of my favorite lines were during the Christmas Episode where the teacher tell Huey he wants him to write and direct the school play. "They're gonna fire you" "For what?" "For being an irresponsible white person"

and the MLK Jr episode, when they're at the food court having an involved conversation and MLK Jr (who recently woke up from a coma) says "Oh, snap. No, they didn't. A boneless rib sandwich. What will they think of next?"

Wanna hear something else to laugh at? Some kid logged onto the 2nd Gen forum, Yesterday, and said "Has anyone ever turbocharged an N/A before?" I laughed so hard my face hurt.

I dont think theres a minute of that show NOT worth quoting.

Other times I was too busy thinking of the show instead of paying attention in class, was the time in which my teacher was discussing how such afro-american leaders WOULD NOT find it appropriate for one "brother" to call another "brother" the N word. Which of course I then had to remember that great speach by MTK jr entiled "will you ignorant ****** please shut the hell up"

And the there was that time I found out that Rosa Parks was NOT the first person to revolt like that. And that there were other black women that were fighting long long before her. This blew my mind, because why on earth did I hear so much about her, and not about anyone else. And then I remember in that same episode about how Grandad was prank calling Rosa Parks because she stole his thunder

Seeing how the GF is the exact opposite of every communist point ... what would you label them as?

Smurfette sounds like the village bicycle.
