Life, the universe, people and relationships in general. I think people in general are extremely self centered and ignorent.

It's just amazing to think what was going on in all these different countries from the time of the caveman until now. History is very important.

I like reading and watching TV, but I hate history. So boring.

The way I see it, history's only as boring as the teacher or individual learning makes it out to be. Tons of fiction books and television shows draw elements that can be found exactly in history textbooks. National Treasure, as simplistic as that film is, is a great example of this because history isn't just a dead thing, it's filled with people's lives just as intricate as our own whose actions can and do still effect us today

Well, to each their own. However, I will always find history boring and dull so that's why I never care about it. And you're right that the teachers I had made it very boring for me, so that's why I just never liked it or really cared.

*CyberCubed* · 11-12-2013, 07:56 PM

What about shows set in ancient history? Like World War II era, or ancient Rome, or in the Wild West of the 1800's?

History is amazing.

*Prowler* · 11-12-2013, 08:19 PM

I love history, too. As for it being confusing, well there's a lot of data about it and it can be conflicting a lot of times, not to mention all the different interpretations one can draw from it. My hand always used to hurt after finishing history tests and exams back in high school

*shuriken* · 11-13-2013, 02:02 AM

How Snooki and Jwow have their own show.
Legalease is terribly confusing as well.

I agree.
After having toured Egypt earlier this year I can speak from experience.

I studied up quite a lot before going and learnt so much actually being there.
As to getting definitive answers about everything, well that was difficult the more I learnt. It certainly got a bit confusing at times to keep up with all the knowledge. Great fun as an experience nonetheless. Certainly a lot better and less confusing than a school history lesson.

Seeing the way some people behaved over there, now that was confusing.

How Adventure Time is popular.

Boooring. Not interested.

My confusion: Why Family Guy is still going when it should have died long ago.

*Lethal Lullaby* · 11-13-2013, 10:22 AM

Life is confusing. Very confusing.

*shuriken* · 11-20-2013, 12:18 PM

Only as confusing as you make it. But yeah it can be very very confusing.

*Powder* · 11-20-2013, 12:23 PM

Why medical bills are so God damn expensive in the US.

I'm confused by that statement

I mean no offense.

*BubblyShell22* · 11-22-2013, 08:27 AM

None taken. I meant that after they got rid of Cleveland, it just hasn't been the same, so that's why I'm surprised it's still on.

What confuses me: Healthcare, people who pretend to be homeless even though they aren't, and organized religion.

*blindturtle02* · 11-24-2013, 02:10 PM

I would say makeup confuses me. My fiancé and sister have tried explaining why girls wear it and I suppose I get the fact that it can either accentuate or cover up. Still can't really imagine how it looks though. The fact that some girls would want to hide how they really look tends to make me rather sad. They shouldn't have to. Now I'm wanting to go talk to my better half and ask her about all the various types of makeup. Just curious.

*BubblyShell22* · 11-25-2013, 08:53 AM

Yeah, I never got that either. I don't wear makeup because I've never been a fan of it, except when I had to do plays and stuff. I like my natural looks better. Once, when I did a play during school, someone in my class said, "Are you wearing makeup?" I said, "Yeah, I was in a play." They said, "You're really pretty." What, I was ugly before I put it on?
