Yeah! lol

Lol, toys with “fun” sounds are really annoying :) But for me cell phones are great. The problem is that many people don’t know how to use them, forgetting to switch it to the vibrational option on the movies, meetings or any other occasion alike. Oh, and there are also the great amount of...

:rolleyes:

nyse, I’m very sorry to say that you will never make it to formulate a thing we call “theory” if you continue doing this; you keep saying law is bad and why and you don’t--really, you just don’t--present a new system to replace law with. So your ideas are nothing more then a complain. You will...

(continuing,) Now leaving aside these so far unfixed imperfections of your ideas, I got to say that at least in one thing I totally agree with you. And it’s about the security and life conditions inside the prisions, what brings us to a very important matter: the functions of the punishment...

(Continuing,) Also, saying that this system to replace law with would consist in an individual who brought harm to anyone to have his punishment decided by the society as a whole or even by a society’s representative, without observing any written law is not a way out as well. If your system...

nyse, when I asked you to build your theory in a solid way, you said: I got to say this was the solidest topic of yours I’ve ever read. That’s great. Anyway, I still disagree with you because, despite its solidly redaction, you’ve still did not pointed a workable institution (or anything...

Oh, anyone can define it and all the definitions would be right, as in the other hand they will be differ from each other, since as far as I've observed in life people seem to love for different reasons: some love because the guy/girl is rich; others because they are pretty; others because of...

lol :rolleyes:

In deed, I saw many people saying they did not understand your point in other topics. Firstly I myself tough I was another one who did not get your point. But now I realize there are two possible explanations for this weirdness: A) we all did understand you, but we did not agree with you. So the...

It’s easy to find books that express disdain for the jury system since this method of trial is unacceptable for many authors. I don’t know exactly the name of any particular author that shares this view. But if you go to the Law section of any library you may find many related works.

That's interesting. By the way, I've never read an authentic Oriental literary piece. I picked this expression authentic Oriental because I wanted to set aside Salman Rushdie and Khaled Hosseini works. I refer to literature made in the Orient without an Occidental influence. Those authors I’ve...

Hum… I guess internet never declined my reading… I think internet is a great tool for readers since you can search for new readings every time you finish a book and don’t know what to read next; or also you can download rare books that you don’t find at the bookstores. Actually this is the...

I don’t get your point, nyse, although I agree with many principles you’ve launched. But if I say I don’t get your point it’s because I don’t know if you’re saying all the legal systems are bad, or if it’s about your land’s legal system only, or if you suggest law should be abolished (??)… yet...

Oh I knew there was a thread about quotes somewhere in these forums :) Great, I was looking for it. My undergoing reading is very interesting. Balzac’s pen is great for basically three reasons: a) his tales are interesting; b) his personages are very well detailed in its physical look and...

Actually Christmas doesn't means a lot for me since I gave up Catholicism, but I know most people enjoy this holyday and that it means a lot for many Christians. Oh, and differently from me, my family members are Christians (al least the great majority of them) and they always make a reunion in...

Oh you didn't, mate! I bet you'll remember it gradually by restating its usage. Pick a nice tale you'd like to read - any French text - and go for it. Such attempt would not be boring... I think. And you got nothing to loose anyway. Well, you've already took nine years of your life for this...

Yes, you're right. Balzacian sentences’ constructions are kind of complex for newbies in the French language. I'd start with original French versions of small tales or books that I've previously read in English or Portuguese translated versions. This may be the best way to learn a new language...

I don’t think it’s possible to enunciate kinds of women by epoch. I agree each century had it’s own conception of what a woman should be or how she should behave. This happens nowadays as well. The only observation that may matter is that whatever the epoch we take as example, there will be...

It’s impossible for me to answer this topic’s title question “Does reading makes anyone smarter?” without launching some principle before. Firstly we should ask “what does smartness means” and “what kind of reading does the topic title question refers to”. “fantasy books and non fiction, books...
