I'm a simple guy learning complicated English yet enjoying it, I think. I have awesome friends, nice friends, good friends, bad friends, condemned friends, no-friend friends. I am relatively small in size, standing at just 1.6 metres, weighing a tiny 45 kg.
I like socks worn below the ankle and pants worn below the hips, which is pointless because the socks can no longer be seen and the pants would no longer be covering my behind. I like styling my hair because it always get messed up again, brushing my teeth
because it always grows yellow, and showering because I'll never be clean. My Language Arts teacher said a straight guy will not tell others he's not gay or is straight because that will hint his gay-ness, but I disagree. Therefore, I'm going to say this:
I'm straight, not gay. Lastly, I think I'm intelligent, very.
Mr MusicalPoem on Tim Johnson
With a spring in his step he walked,
Seemingly elated yet not,
it's Tim Johnson the dog.
A few mere yards ahead,
Two siblings in the shade,
In their father's hands? Tim's fate.
One-shot Finch he's named,
For greater good he claimed,
Closed his eye, took aim.
Crack the rifle go,
The mad dog fell way low,
And death took its toll.
Mr InterpersonalInterview with Mother
Me:
Mom, what do you understand of the terms 'prejudice' and 'discrimination'?
Mother:
If I'm not wrong they both are the same, and are related to ignoring, neglecting or purposely causing hurt emotionally and, or physically to a group of people. Bias mindsets and brainwashing should result in this occurring.
Me:
You got a few points right, it does involve causing distress to a certain group of people, but your answer is rather vague. The actual definition I got from the web is:-
"Prejudice usually refers to an unsubstantiated negative prejudgement of individuals or groups because of their ethnicity, race or religion. Discrimination is the exclusion of individuals or groups from full participation in society because of their ethnicity, race or religion. Prejudice, an attitude, and discrimination, a behaviour, are usually linked, but they are distinct phenomena. In a vicious circle, prejudice frequently leads to discriminatory behaviour while discrimination reinforces or creates social and economic inequalities which then reinforce prejudices.
Mother:
Yes, now that you mentioned it, I remembered that although similar, prejudice and discrimination are somewhat different. In a sense, both refer to an unfair and groundless judgement of a particular group of individuals, regardless whether it's just a small handful or a whole community. The exact numbers don't matter, but as long as a few people with similar characteristics are targetted, the act of prejudice or discrimination is already present. And yes, prejudice is just the thought or mindset, whereas discrimination is the actual act or series of actions that follow due to a prejudiced mindset.
Me:
Thank you mom for repeating the definition and paraphrasing it.
Mother:
Haha, you're most welcome. But at least I did elaborate, I think.
Mr Observant surveys himself
As you can see I have a weird personality. My multiple Intelligence Pie results suggest I am extremely Interpersonal and hardly intrapersonal. I know others way better than I know myself, which suggests I don't understand my own requirements and interests, and am not "myself smart". Random postHi this is just a trial, so do not carry on reading from this point onwards.
