Jerry Seinfeld: Royal Wedding is "an absurd circus act."

Teachers do very little, it's up to the kid to actually do the work and learn. No matter how great the teacher it matters very little if the kid isn't willing to most of the heavy lifting. All those hours studying in a library was that you or your teacher? All the papers written was that you or your teacher?
Teachers serve a purpose but you're the one who has to truly turn the lesson into something applicable.

 

Oh please, I'm not being slow and I'm not remotely comparing royalty to the rest of us, I was pointing out that your own comparison of royalty to celebrity is ridiculous.

If you can't comprehend the difference, or discuss it without trying to insult me, or for that matter, actually read what I've written, why are you even responding to my posts at all?

 

I fell sad for him that he lost his mom in a young age. But saying his life is difficult as a prince and potential future king is a horse shit. Yes, I am sure his life has some difficulties but I bet you in a million years he would not trade it to AIDS orphan child in Uganda, so again cry me a fucken river.

 

Royalty is celebrity, the world watches you and I wasn't insulting you I was merely pointing out your behavior. To say his life isn't easy is cruelly insensitive. He will never know the hardships that most of the world suffers through and again because of what his family has done. But you're right I'm done with this topic so good night and enjoy the circus.

 

Dude you can't free a mind from the Matrix that doesn't want to freed. Let them have their Royal Circus and on Monday when it's all forgotten we can find another topic to debate over lol.

 

True, you have to put the effort and hours of studying in the library but let's give credit when credit is due. Great teachers shape and mold the future of this country. I am sure there are tons of stories by sucessful doctors, lawyers, bankers, even athletes how good teachers kept them out trouble and put them on straight road.

IMO good teachers go under appreciated in this country.

 

calling me slow is insulting, but yeah, I'm out on this too.

 

I think we rely on them too much. Any academic success I or anyone in my family or even my high achieving friends attained came from relentless work after class. Class is usually one hour, truly learning the material took a lot more than that. Just saying...

 

Wow, i guess i don't check in enough to keep up with the 7 pages of responses in the last 20 hours or so; hot thread i guess.

For the record:

The majority of my family is indigenous Arowak indian, which are the indians that inhabited the West Indies when the Europeans first got there. By this point, there would definitely be african blood in my blood lines, as well as god knows who else, from actual Indian, white European, Spanish, and whatever else.

If I happen to be one of the few black people that is able to see the benefits of White Europeans bringing better agricultural principles, Architecture, Philosophy, Religion, and other elements of higher learning and education that you may be learning right now in college, well then, I guess that just makes me an ignorant negro, well doesn't it? (sarcasm font needed...)

granted...not even close to the death of american soldiers, but a life lost is still a life lost, and to be honest, iraq didn't even come to mind because when i hear of the death of an australian soldier, i hear afghanistan . i found an article which i found very interesting about australian soldier's involvement with the war in iraq. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/asia/article4016186.ece

 

watched the wedding & cried...!!!

 

You have tried to change it a bit. This isn't about my fallen Australian brother's in arms, but whether Australia was "NEEDED" clearly they were not. And the part they played in both wars, they could have been played sitting at home.

And while the death of those 10 is a loss, anytime a warrior falls its a loss...but 10?

...and the Australian people really think America needed it? America needed to say "Hey see, its not just us, the world wants this". So Australian sends its men and women off to war...

...and then are stuck so far from that war so as to ensure that they don't get any scratches on them. To even suggest that Austria came to the aid of the US is ....

...man...........I can't even think of a good word. And its almost dishonorable for the Australian warriors. I can't even image how they feel. Warriors...sent to war only to be keep away from any actual battle.

Were they afraid?

Entire Brigades train in Australia. Hell I've been three three times (Darwin, Perth, Sydney). The Navy hold port in Australia. The US Airforce does training over Australian airspace.

...why?

....because you needed it.

 

I don't wanna watch it. I wanted to wake up and drink my coffee and watch my morning news...................

...but its on EVERY DAMN STATION.

 

And why does it seem like while watching this silly wedding, I keep hearing the theme to Superman?

 

There was way too many songs and sermons, but when they finally came out it was beautiful.

 

Dude you just stay arguing up in this piece. Please go get laid, I'm begging you. If these chicks want to have their fairy-tale BS then let 'em. Although I do find it ironic that some like DB talk all this nerdy single-gal feminist BS only to fall head over heels for the royal wedding of all things, LMBAO

 

Sir when you're right you're right my friend.

Enjoy the circus ladies

 

Good for you maybe but not for the vast poverty stricken populus of Jamaica. Keeping shucking and jiving Uncle Ruckus.

 

PS: Seinfeld is an American classic, up there with Miles Davis, Jackson Pollock and other American originals. His sitcom is up there with I Love Lucy and will be rerun forever. He also has more dough than God. So that you're not into his comedy is more about your bad taste than him.

Over and out.
