| Nobody is born a theist. That much is certain. If "atheist" is defined as a person who is not a theist (theist/atheist being a binary dichotomy), which is technically the literal meaning of the word as constructed, then yes, everyone is born an atheist, just like everyone is born alingual ... |

| On every social anxiety/social phobia test I have done or site I have read, the topic of public speaking always pops up somewhere, and I never quite know what to put or what it actually means. Does it mean standing in the middle of a shopping mall with a microphone in front of you, saying a speech ... |

| PewDiePie's fans usually send messages of death, pain, and rape to those who simply doesn't like him. And when i say a game is overrated, it does not mean i hate these games. In fact, most of the overrated ones, i like. I just feel these games get way more attention than they deserve, hence the ter... |

But everytime someone doesn't like the game, the fanbase immediately acts like PewDiePie's moronic fanbrats. Only slightly more mature and rational. Slightly. Not really sure how... |

| Sexuality isn't a matter of simple categories. Labels like heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, asexual, demisexual, et.c., are just shortcuts to vague and approximate descriptions of something that's really much more complex. If you prefer females visually but you prefer males tactually, congratulat... |

She said she didn't know, but that she wanted to call me that, so we agreed to just keep it honest and talk openly and figure it out as we go. We have now been together for over three years. She re... |

| Drama, I would presume, refers to one or more of these behaviors: * Paranoia: "Where the hell have you been?", "I saw you looking at that person!" "You must be cheating on me." * Disrespect of privacy: spying, stalking, looking through their computer, phone, email... * Creating conflict out of thing... |

If for example you own a store, and don't ... |

My god, I sound at least a half-octave/octave higher than when I speak in person!
You only think you do. What you hear on tape is closer to what you really sound like than what you hear in your head. |

I don't dislike all metal by default, but it's rare that I hear metal I enjoy, as I'm often turned off by some of the macho posturing and incoherent rumbling that's so popular in man... |

| What does that have to do with anything? It has to do with the rumor that the guy smokes weed. I can't give an answer to why the girl is spreading said rumor, but I can say that even if the rumor in question happens to be true, it's most likely not as big a deal as the rumor-starting girl would mak... |

Plenty of people who smoke weed are fine. It's not a particularly heavy drug. Less dangerous than alcohol in pretty much every way except i... |
