Dozenal is SO much better than decimal, I mean look how awesome telling time will be: http://dozenal.ae-web.ca/Trust is knowing someone or something well enough to have a good idea of their motivations and character, for good or for ill. People often say trust when they mean faith.

Re: Unpopular Opinions.
I would say that that has to do with the woman being in charge of her body, sexuality, choices, and thoughts. For the longest time women were (and in some places still are) seen as property/second class citizens. Example being "should a man lie down with another man as he would a woman he should be stoned." A few thousand years later...I will agree that there is a huge different between being confident about your body and being a woman, and having no self respect.

Strength should be proportionate to the ability of their minds, not the square area of skin they are showing.Originally posted by blue_coyote View PostI would say that that has to do with the woman being in charge of her body, sexuality, choices, and thoughts.

Frankly the whole thing is ridiculous, I won't say any of it, i refuse to recognize the holidays at work...Satan is my spirit animal

Re: Unpopular Opinions.
Yes and yes. So much so that, honestly? I wonder how unpopular it really is. I mean, today, it's December 5th. It's not a holiday. I actually responded to 'merry xmas' with "not yet but thank you. When they do get here, I hope your holidays are genuinely pleasant."
I got a funny look. I was happy, I made them have to think about it, to figure out if I was being a grinch. I figure it's a bit early to start with the 'happy new year' reply.
