What kind of butter do we smell like? If its normal Paula Dean butter, then bleh. But if its some of that wonderful Kerrygold.... mmmmmmm...

Its the kind that gets excreted through your arm pit pores. Americans are apparently disgusting butter people. Not me though. Not you either. You're OK.
 
Oh, is that why the Indian guys I work with smell SO FRESH AND CLEAN when they don't use deodorant? 🙄

It depends on your diet, not your nationality or race. If they eat American butter people food, they will smell like butter people, but with Indian spice. This is obvious and you should know it.

Strictly Indian diet. These guys won't eat meat of any kind. Just a bunch of hot spicy disgusting vegetables and rice :colbert:

Sounds sexy. You like the men?

Also, you have been mean to me lately. You said you wanted to be friends. I wrote you pomes and inserted fun in your threads and you now treat me like a used sock, yet you refuse to wash me.

moonbogg my friend, you must learn that disagreement does not mean dislike!

i appreciated the pomes! your obama ebola one was good too :awe:

i'm thinking that i might not die from the ebolas after all... though i heard you cant be sure until 21 days...
 
Good point. On another note, I copied your ratings and highlighted the ones that I had different feelings on. I left the others alone and only highlighted the ones that really stood out and gave them my own rating for your comparison. I put my rating next to yours in red.

< snip the ones we agreed on >
1) *Hysterically unaware of everything around them (5) sad but true
2) *Determined to destroy the environment (5) pressure building here
4) *Loud

Examples of peoples, groups or ideas for which there is a social Stigma:

10) *Mentally ill (8) changed this to 8. Its not their fault, but people are still scared
10) *Physically disabled (6) people seem more accepting of this nowadays
4) *Holocaust denial (10) off the charts. Deserves a 15.
10) *Racial stigmas (being a certain race or color) (6) simply for race, its less than in the past
1) *Gay (7) this is still pretty high in many societies and cultures
3) *Pedophelia (10) off the charts. you simply can't do this
2) *Religious fundamentalist (8) has a major stigma from terrorism
1) *Stay at home dad (4) little higher for this one I think

Interesting, a lot of these are geographical and peer differences. A good number of the people I hang around have no qualms voicing and attempting to justify these stereotypes and stigmas, most I keep my counsel.

Crap, its true. Americans smell like butter. Also, if you eat healthy foods, you won't need to apply toxic deodorant to your body every day.

From naturalnews.com

And above all, if you want to eliminate body odor for life, avoid cheese, milk and dairy products. They make you smell like "milk and butter." The smell of these products is so bad that when U.S. soldiers were shipped off to Vietnam in the 1960's, the Vietcong could actually smell them thanks to their American diets. New arrivals were often put on new diets based on local cuisine simply to rid their bodies of the milk-and-butter smell, thereby reducing the risk of being literally sniffed out by the enemy.
