I think Hummus is delicious
So I'm sitting here at my desk, and suddenly I'm struck with a thought. I'm eating pretzels with Hummus, and suddenly I realize that I freakin love hummus. It's delicious. Or at least, I think that it is. However, I find that I am often wrong when I have thoughts. My brain simply isn't capable of processing an idea that complicated. Therefore I ask you to attempt to prove that I do not think hummus is delicious, and I will argue as best I can, and in the end I'll have a better idea of whether...
Adidas rhymes with Penis
Adidas, a shoe company, should be sued for millions of dollara because it rhymes with the vulgar word "penis", which, as we all know, is slang for dick. Adidas has disappointed me and I shall never buy a product from them again....

Don't you think the Boston Bombing was over hyped?
First of all, I understand and acknowledge that the Boston bombing was a terrible event which never should have occurred. But don't you ever stop and think that a big deal is being made out of something substantially smaller? People were even thinking this could be compared to 9/11. On the same day 42 people die in an earthquake in Iraq. But does that receive even a tenth of what the Boston bombings received. No. This can't be defended....
Should we aboliish the death penalty?
I believe that once you have been committed to the decision of doing things that resulted in killing of another person, then your life is not of greater value of the one that you have killed. Us, Americans are giving these murders the oppurtunities to be brought into this world yet again and who says that they their actions won't remain the same as before. And yet we are paying for them to have a full entertainment system as they sit in the jail system soaking up our tax money. And when they get...
The drink-driving (DUI) laws aren't broke so there's no need to fix them
The British government is proposing to lower the drink-driving (DUI) limit from 80mg of alcohol per 100ml of blood to 50mg in order to prevent up to 65 deaths a year. (1) Now nobody would say that lives of 65 people are insignificant, but let's put this into context – every year a total of 460 people a year die as the result of drink-driving incidents while 30,000 people a year die as the result of being obese. (2) So, are the government planning any punitive measures to save the lives of...

Gay Marriage should be legal everywhere
Traditionally in this country, marriage has been defined as a religious & legal commitment between a man and woman, as well as the ultimate expression of love. Homosexual relationships are increasingly gaining acceptance in this country; however, these couples have not been permitted to marry. Some states have considered a new form of commitment called a "civil union", which essentially is marriage without using the word "marriage". Many politicians have said they are against gay marriage but th...
