I remember reading in one of my highschool yearbooks that by some point in this decade there will be a lot of single men who are without mates because of the one child thing. Since the boys are the ones who are most sought for and the families would find out gender and when they found out that it was a girl, in some cases they would abort her, or if they found out at birth, get rid of her. I don't know if they made the abortion thing based on gender illegal yet. My focus is on the European Union and Finnish social/education policy, so anything related to Asia with the exception of Japan, I'm kinda duh on. ^^"

Did ser say a lot of single men? Ely can deal with this. =3

I don't know how true that is...though there are more men in this world than women right now. What is it? Like 52% men and 48% women? Not too much to worry about yet.

I have heard about that concept several times before, though.

Well actually it's more like 49%men 51% women or something like that, we have a slight advantage over the guys. ^^"

But the offset of gender in some countries varies. Like in China there would be more men than women because of the desire to have boys. though some will deal with having a girl. Plus I think now there is the need for more girls.

i know in Japan there is a shift in the demographics and there is more old than young now. (like in most other countires) And there was a news story I saw on NHK one time a few years ago that a prefecture was actually in a sense "paying" the couples to have children to offset the aging population, because sooner or later, like other countries, they'll be screwed.

This be me.

Nope. I thought that too until up to a couple of months ago. I just looked it up and it seems that the world as a whole is 51% men and 49% women. It used to be the other way around. Odd, ain't it?

Yeah. I knew about the Japan thing too. They're alright. I believe it's mainly because their population is overwhelmingly healthy and long-living compared to most other cultures. Poor Japan...their people have long lives. XP ;)

Ah you're probably right. ^^" I think it's been awhile since I've looked at those stats.

I walked into my room to get myself some water and a tangelo, my roommate has her laptop blaring this stupid movie she's watching. I swear she's deaf or hard of hearing. I don't even have my stuff that loud. Sometimes when she has her earbuds in because she's angry I'm listening to stuff or whatever. I can hear what she's listening to and the words too. O.o

Zombie, is that a duckface I see? -_-;

Ill be putting the videos on the front page during the day today when Im not in class C:

I know! No channels ever seem to play that anymore. ): So sad. I have a creepy love for Mojo Jojo.

Also...no...I don't see that happening. If anyone buys a banjo it should be you buying it for me. 8D

BACKKK. How are you all?

I'm still waiting for my video to upload. Youtube is slow as heck...hopefully I'll have it posted sometime soon. I was back and forth about doing it since I'm not good with cameras. They kind of scare me even if it is just a webcam. XD

Lol, I leave for the night and you all start talking about social problems. So glad to know there are still smart and informed people in the world. If anyone from my school read this they would be lost after the word The.

I can't wait to see the other videos ^_^

-yawns and floats around-

I laughed when I saw this XD I don't know if anyone else watched this, but I did for a short time as a kid. I thought the same thing even back then...HOW!

DUDE I ALWAYS WANTED TO FUCKING KNOW THAT!?

Wasnt that show called 'Out of the Box' or something? xD

Yeah! It use to make me so mad because I would build box houses and they sucked. Just be sitting in my box wondering "how the hell did they get the tree house in theirs!?"

O_o I mean really your imagination can only go so far lol

LMAO that's a really funny image to picture.
A little kid just sitting inside an empty box with crossed arms and/or an unimpressed look on their face.

On the anger at that box >_< I think I stopped watching the show when my box wouldn't do the same thing XD

Does anyone else love boxes? I find them so useful lol.

xD Id love to have a box fort that looks like that.


What do you guys think? I got my first tablet yesterday so Im just fucking around with it.

This thread is so off topic. XD

Cool bubble letters! I like the colors.

Yeah, you have no idea xD
And thanks. Im still learning/teaching myself, so, HOPEFULLY, the new ones will be better C:

even though it is random and off topic, it really isn't because we are getting to know the people in this thread. After all that's the main point of the topic ^^

I've got a tablet too, but I don't use it that often since I havn't been drawing recently D:

It's so weird now, when I read your posts I hear your actual voices. XD

That's just all the more awesome then!
