Hey Kid! Maybe wearing that Nazi uniform to the party was not such a wise idea after all...I mean, listen Harry, just because the people of England are foolish enough to support any of you pompous 'royal' leeches - it doesn't mean that you can do ANYthing you want...

How about apologizing to the ENTIRE WORLD you moron!!!

Well then...the way that some of the posters on this site throw around words such as: facist or nazi or S.S. - it appears to me that this topic has EVERYTHING to do with this forum...

...or am I wrong again????

Yep. Wrong again. Perennially, deliberately W R O N G.

Why do some people do it? Why not simply ignore the attention-seeker? It is obvious to me that is what is going on here. I come to this board seeking information, and all too often I get these frivolous, completely off-topic messages from a certain someone who likes (it seems) to start threads to hear himself talk (see himself write).

Probably we do it because we resent the hell out of that rude, hateful, intolerant board monopolizer who has absolutely ZIP to contribute, yet either starts posts to ramble on, post after post, with death threats and other preposterous b.s. or hijacks ALL the posts started by other people who used to be able to have some kind of dialog on this board?

I also don't like people who monopolize the board for their own selfish needs, but I think that engaging them is exactly what they want. If you cannot reason with or have a rational conversation with someone, why try? Someone correct me on this, but isn't there a definition of insanity that says being insane is doing the same thing and expecting different results? We cannot expect needy people to change based on what we do or say to them; they either will or won't change of their own accord.

I had a college classmate who once decided she did not like me. She had no reason, she said, she just simply did not like me, and decided to let everyone know that. I confronted her because I thought I had maligned her somehow and wanted to make amends. When I found out she had no reason (or at least that I had done nothing to her), I said to her, "Oh, I see. Well, if you ahve a problem with me, don't make it my problem." After that, I don't know what she said or thought about me. I did not care. It was her problem.

People who like to hijack threads and take them in a totally different direction, or say absurd unrelated things have a problem. Whatever it is - attention, etc. - it is not my problem. There is no need to get involved, and I for one have more things to focus my time on (like finding a job!) than their silliness.

What if, just by chance, some of you WERE ACTUALLY teachers and say, the topic of the Nazi abomination came up in your classroom - you DO realize that there are still 'neo-nazis' in the world today...don't you? Well, I suppose if you feel that you can't talk about GOD...then you certainly could cover a few months worth of evil and hatred because, after all, this would not be 'imposing' your view upon anyone...hey, everyone likes at least SOME evil...

...by the way...if you are already in San and are at least nominally christian (you can always become 'full-blooded' later) - then I could point you toward the job of a lifetime...or at least a year or two...

NEVER underestimate the power of LOVE...

Talk of banning the swastika (and all nazi symbols) across Europe now...

You are wrong. This is supposed to be a jobs Forum for Latin America and a lot of your posts have nothing to do with jobs.
