Such as when things are really bad, how do they make them worse?
Does the fact that optimists outnumber the pessimists make them feel more miserable?
If a miserable person sees the light at the end o the tunnel and it is an oncoming train, does that make them happy or not?
Does a miserable person celebrate that the glass is not only half empty but chipped also ?
What do people think is the true meaning of misery is? Is it money, cars, women? Or is it money and women or just women?

Many say that the root of all evil is money, but I'd bet more say 'the lack of having money is the root of all evil.
People who have money and live within their means suffer from a lack of imagination, stop living within your income and go out and borrow some. Just don't forget that simply having money is rather like being a blonde. It is more fun but not vital; money is actually the poor person's credit card...
While money isn't everything in life, just remember that it does rank right up there with oxygen. So while money is better than poverty, go out and make some just in case you don't die, after all, what good is having money if you can't inspire terror in your fellow human...
Most of us , I think would agree that we all just want the chance to prove that money can't make us happy or that it actually can...

Were they spliced and edited together? That would make or a great movie! Perhaps add a bit from Flesh Gordon also!?

Years ago a good friend who happened to be a lesbian told off some moron neanderthal type male that thought he could 'turn' her. She finally bellowed at him for all to hear in the cafe,"Why would I want some sweating, smelly overweight male banging my cervix just or his cheap thrills!?" Every one clapped or shouted out 'Bravo!'
He went 'exit, stage left' like the Flash...People in Europe are intolerant of all types of bigots, especially when it concerns sexual preferences.

Sounds like you were trying to remember the lyrics to the old 1956 song by Jim Lowe, 'The Green Door'...almost right!

Try telling that to all the males and females that have sex with various animals live on stage in many nightclubs around the world...

OMG! It's the Return of either 'Barbarella 'or 'The Queen of Outer Space' herself, Zsa Zsa Gabor...I hope it's Barbarella!

That reminds me...take out Barbarella to dinner and a good time!

Interesting and very narrow speculations.
A relatively small and barely visible amount of Russian troops have been stationed in Syria ever since the old days of the Warsaw Pact alliances. It would certainly be an excellent coup in world prestige, should Putin wish it, for Russian troops to have the priceless image of 'peace protectors' if they do openly take over the major chemical dumps in Syria and invite UN inspection which will develop into a joint Un-Russian force or simply Russian troops to be on site to monitor the chemical dumps. You can't put a price on that type of image.
Russian troops are the most feared in the middle East as ever since the US Marine Barracks were blown up in Lebanon back in the 80's. The last thing most terrorists want are Russian Spetsnaz troops on the loose coming after them again. They found the terrorists that blew up the Marines.
While Putin's image improves the world over, it certainly doesn't mean any corresponding loss of prestige to the US military. A possible toe-to-toe confrontation was avoided by both sides that on one hand was not well thought out by an amateur 'idealist' and a professional of very diverse background who knew how to keep his 'cool'. Putin for all intents and purposes did everyone a service and no one 'got a black-eye', as it were.

I remember as a child hearing that sex is one, done, finished once the woman is married...especially here in North America. While not quite accurate, certain pleasures do seem to end absolutely from all the gripes and general complaints that I have always heard from both strangers and friends...
Seems before marriage most women will do anything, but not once she marries...many pleasures that a man enjoyed before marriage suddenly becomes a 'Ewwwwww!' topic/ chore.
Well, what can one expect from those who come from a culture; inherit viewpoints that regard sex as 'dirty' and immoral without the approval of others or their church...gee, one would think that they all want to watch what you do or don't do so they can label you something negative. Those kinds are sick and are in dire need of some form of emergency psychiatric care.

There are far, far too many to list here; suffice it to say that for every popular, big hit movie be it rated G, PG or even for kids, there is a 99% probability that an X rated version exists or is in production, including porn versions of Disney films and cartoon shows. That has been the 'norm' since the 60's. Some are hysterical; some are pure garbage, just as with regular films whole some have become classics in their own right as with several X rated spoofs of many #1 movies at the box-office.
Try finding some and have some laughs!

Absolutely as also many 'good people',(good being relative) make a lulu conscious decision to go ahead and do 'bad things' in order to advance their careers, such as those entering politics will be wide open for bribes, lying, etc. Same for many other professions that are on the top positions that most people do not trust as being honest; lawyers, cops, intelligence operatives, used car salespeople, realtors, the list is virtually endless . One category is those generally classified as being 'poor' which is a shame but who can blame them all for trying to get ahead by whatever they can fool the system with in a society that seems a certain amount of 'poor' , just as a certain amount of unemployed, unskilled workers just to name a few. Same with needing working people in debt, same for those wanting to attend college and universities must incur large debt loads and no one seems to want free collie or university education as in Europe...same with free universal health care, a simple human right...People here seem absolutely scared to death of those systems that actually help the most people possible...

Good; just imagine the list made by a free and independent woman...go on, make one!

Robert Crumb loved big women and Amazons....he was infamous for it...

Just out of curiosity, is there t thread for people that have miserable lives...would they have secrets that allow them to be miserable?

The poor clown is just following the old policy of 'perpetual war' as outlined by Busch, Channey, Rumsfeld, et al. Prominent writers and social historians have written several excellent books on this, namely Gwyn Dwyer, Gore Vidal, Chris Edges and even Umberto Ecco among others. The concept of 'perpetual war' is, for all intents and purposes, the foreign policy of the US. It can't back off now. After Syria, another war will soon follow and another ad infinatum until this entire planet can basically be re-named 'Planet America' with possibly a nice heart warming phrase such as 'Zionism Macht Frei!' Anyone not for it is an enemy of the State. Planet America will basically be one giant Gulag for humanity.

Excellent! Kosovo also...
