So you believe your opinions to be incorrect, and yet you still insist on letting us know... In this case, however, my opinion is that it doesn't make sense to form opinions about groups of people based on the actions of a few. It's not too hard a concept to grasp is it? Whether you were trying to be nice about people or not, I don't see a difference.

opinions for the sake of correcting them and on the odd occassion,
forging them. The latter being marked by whooping and general
merry-making.
Anyway, I'm not offering my opinion as it stands, only asking a
question.
And yes, I do have difficulties understanding how your opinion of
others peoples opininions is so absolute.

Who is your favorite co-habituant and why?
It's Christmas so let's hear the good things.
First, there is no such word that I could find that's co-habituant.
Second, if it's about cohabitant I'd have to say my cat, since I don't live with another human at the moment. But I've lived with plenty of people I wasn't all that thrilled with, so my cat would win over them paws down anyway.
Third, are people dragging other things into this thread? I don't see anything in the OP about race or ethnicity and yet it seems that some people are reading prejudices into it -- or is it just that I'm unfamiliar with the original poster and most/all of his posts are of that nature?

I'd like to say that I especially appreciate the asian community
for being fun to live with.
To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure that seeing that no good can come from brash generalisations is really an opinion. It's just common sense. Unless of course, you can point me in the direction of some good that it can do?

In some ways I'm envious.

You're all happy to goon and on about what to do about
when things go wrong but not one of you's got the balls
to say what they think is right.
This s**t should all be moved to the concensus forum!
People have problems with situations (such as illegal aliens of any category) but most are too intelligent to think that problems are simply because the neighbors have a certain skin color or that there are no problems simply because the neighbors are a certain skin color. Most people who think *people of this race are good neighbors and people of that race are bad neighbors* are too stupid to know how to turn on a computer, let alone type in a chess forum.
