With the plethora of social networking sites It was interesting to read a study of the personalities of people who use twitter and their percentage contrasted with their percentages in society, the study mentioned that introverted personalities were over-represented on social sites. IRONIC eh ?
Isn’t it interesting how everyone who is socially outgoing in real life think that its the easiest thing in the world to interact and mingle with people…. It can be quite the terrifying experience to some.
The internet since its inception and with the creation of the first BBS proved to be the philosopher’s stone to geekdoms social awkwardness, it allowed them to mask the precious extra seconds that made them look like fools in real life.
That slight disconnect prepared allowed them to garner the experience on how to deal with people, moving on from BBS’s into forum’s and online chatting now into the worlds of WoW, FB, and the slew of other social mediums it provided anti social people with an option to ease into their deficiencies and allow them to blossom in real life.
I find it interesting when some people start the discussion about how online life is taking over real life, when someone mentions that there is no doubt in my mind that he’s an E. For others the option is between having a social life or non at all.

Now if there is only a tool that helps people from recreating their damn cultural inhibitions and censors online without a reason… i suggest equipting all the computers in the arab world with a mechanical hand that would smack a person’s ass each time he does so !

It is literally beyond me how you can’t recognize that there is a world that exists beyond the limits of your ass ! I know it smells wonderful for you in there but that’s only because its the only smell that you know.
Whenever there is something in the world it has to be about you, hell even the swine flu was created to take you down! newsflash Ayeraab, the world could care less… although you offer a good prospect for being the butt of a joke so don’t despair you are not completely hopeless.

It is insulting [...] Continue Reading…

When did the United states of American become “the land of the free BUT …” Is it really going on after all of the evidence there are still people saying “but” about torture ? isn’t this so 1951!

Oh well, on the other hand there isn’t enough awful news about the U.A.E. Even with the Machiavellian gag order over bad news, we have this little story sneaking through the grape vines. A video tape of the brother (one of 22) of Sheikh Mohammed torturing a grain dealer, creatively and sadistically i might add.

Oh the shock an horror an [...] Continue Reading…

…. Then use condoms, or what qualifies as a scientific experiment in the mind of some (reminds me of that An@s guy).
Either way I adore this guy should check out the other videos

Can’t help but quote another gem, “sex is not really meant to be pleasurable for the female, it primarly something the man will enjoy”, who doesn’t know that ! sheesh.

ENJOY !

“A team of 80 Turkish scholars has been meeting for the past three years to ponder Muslim traditions dating back 14 centuries. Known as the Hadith, the traditions are based on the actions and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad and dictate behavior on everything from the conduct of war to personal hygiene.
Later this year, the Turkish scholars are expected to publish six volumes that reject thousands of Islam’s most controversial practices, from stoning adulterers to honor killings.”
Al mu3tazila, an eradicated sect of islam did just that way back then. I wonder if the reaction will be the same, [...] Continue Reading…

West Vs. East, Religious Vs. Secular, Conservative Vs. Liberal and many of the other argument where two people, parties of groups stand at polar opposites of each other. In those discussions all the arguments really boil down to a very simple but crucial point. One party will be fearful of change and resistant of it, while the other party sees that without change it will cease to exist and although it’s skeptical of change it sees the benefit of it.

So why does one party has the temperament to fear change ? well simply since it believes that humans [...] Continue Reading…

Are things quiet now ? well they shouldn’t be.
About a week ago or so there was a campaign by kinzi to send letters, messages, and write posts denouncing “honor” killings.
As usual, I didn’t participate (atleast not visibly) but i like to observer and think about what was said, suggested, and how things transpired afterward. One thing to note, previously i noticed little interaction between the Syrian and Jordanian blogosphere but nowadays it’s highly amusing to me that it’s becoming more intertwined as we saw posts by Syrian bloggers on the issue (Abufares, razan and KJ pitched in)
For starters many [...] Continue Reading…

I honestly don’t get this argument, do the people that use that argument really understand the culture that was bequeathed to them ? Hell do they even care ?
I think simply the answer is “NO” they simply find it easier to be delusional and ignore the issues that offend their sensibilities with the reaction of “we don’t have that in our culture, it’s of foreign origin”, “I wish they would imitate the good things from the west” and “acknowledging those ills promotes them and makes people practice those things”. Personally I had it.
This is just my opinion [...] Continue Reading…
