Having lived in the South, West coast, East coast and mid-west, I'll say I have personally seen and heard the most racist, sexist and homophobic stuff in the South. By far. In most places I've been to, such talk was the realm of hushed dinner conversations and heated arguments. In Dallas and west Texas, bigotry of all types was right behind the very thin veil of 'Southern Hospitality'. People tell me things are better in Houston and other places, and I take their word on it, but the reputation isn't completely unearned.
And what's a Viewtiful Joe? Can I get it on my PSVita?

I think Chie could eat more than I could. :I
Yukiko is who I chose. Which is weird, because as soon as I saw her in-game I thought "there's no goddamned way I'm gonna make her my waifu" and sure enough there she is during the X-Mas event.

That's pretty much how it is. Hotel chick even learns to cook for you.
Chie was still number 1, though.
I'd be mad at this if Yosuke weren't such a bro.
Yosuke > Junpei. Fight me.
Hooker man. God damn.
Yeah that's pretty much been the consensus. Don't know why Chie is so popular though.

Yep. I was holding out hope we just went because we had nothing else for lunch. But I asked my mom if we went because of the support day and she said yep. I really felt guilty.

My mom just did the same thing, only I was out. I come home, and oh...there she is. With that delicious, homophobic chicken just as I type this.

=/. No offense to your moms but some things aren't going to change for a couple generations I think. I think in 10-20 or when the baby boomers and the gen right after start dying off, we'll see less bigotry and more acceptance of homosexuality. Plus our generation is far less religious.

My momma is the greatest in the world, but I'd be lying if I said she wasn't Super-Christian like and thinks homosexuals need love and help for their sinful lifestyles. She knows how I feel about shit like that, and we've accepted that our opinions just aren't gonna change on the matter and try not to talk about it.

My parents are the same way.No matter how much I tell them gay marriage doesn't afect them they still cant accept it.

I'm just glad my parents aren't this way, not to rub it in your face or anything. I always feel bad for people who love their parents but cannot reconcile their beliefs.

My mom doesn't care about politics much, always said she could never relate to people who shun their friends or family for being gay and would never do it herself.
My dad thinks its wrong and we had plenty of conversations about it.
The most recent convo ended in hilarious fashion. We were talking about if the word "fag" was offensive or not. Which sides of the argument we were on should be obvious.
He kept pounding away on the point that it "was just a word" and after failing to reason with him I took a bit of a low but effective road.
and after his passionate rant about it being just a word I responded with "I guess you're right, wetback." The shock and shame on his face was otherworldly and in that moment I think he gained some understanding. My younger sister burst into laughter too.

She likes kung fu flicks, likes eating out, is approachable, doesn't mind getting dirty, and practices marital arts herself. Makes sense if you ask me.

Got a cold/sinus/chest infection and been taking steroids/antibiotics that seem to keep me amped.
Being sick in the summer sucks.
Damn. Get better, man.

Being sick in the summer is the worst. At least in other seasons it's cold and you can bundle up without lookin' stupid.

Jim Kelly time? Jim Kelly time.
Where you're from- Originally Seattle, but I'm a military brat. Went from there to Virginia, to Alabama, back to Virginia. Stayed in Springfield for the most time, so I guess I'm from there.
Where you live- I've come full circle back to Seattle
Your cultural heritage, lineage and genealogy- My mom's side of the family is mainly from Mississippi (although my mother's grandfather's great great grandfather was apparently Irish). My dad's? Couldn't tell you. I know his grandmother was apparently 100% Choctaw though.
Do you know your roots- Only on my mom's side, and only a little bit. My grandmother on my father's side once said Michael Jai White is my cousin, but I don't know if that's true.
Your Age- 23
Favorite musical genre- Can't pick. Even country's good as long as you're not taking it straight. But classic soul is home for me, as that's what my mom brought me up on.
Your profession/major/career interest- Unpublished writer. Had a project in which I was writing a short story per week, but I stopped in order to try to pound out my first novel.
Your religious affiliation- Christian of the non-specific variety. Not a fan of preaching hate.
Hobbies- Oh your standard GAF fare. Reading, writing, gaming, internetting.

you haven't lived until a random little kid ask you "how do you make love".
welcome, nice to see another new face.
not really related but as a junior I feel like I'm in the trenches just trying to survive.
