KingCarlton: This is the only forum that I tend to go to constantly, the others really don't have that appeal to me. Religion is something that I have been slightly uneasy about. I don't scorn it, but well, the Barrowdowns specifically said no religion talk, so I best not get into it.

Maybe it is our gender that affects what we think. Actually, I have no doubt in my mind. We all act differently whether it be boy or girl. We attach to different characters, depending on how we feel and what we are going through that point in our life. I find males are sensitive on some emotions where females are not and vice versa.

Thinhyandoiel: You know what I find helps in a situation like that? Laugh. For no apparent reason just laugh. I tried it once and it worked, my parents stopped and gave me a funny look before they started to laugh as well. Of course, it all depends on what they are arguing about. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Timing is of the essence. Or scream a song, soon they'll want to stop because they want to know what you are doing. (I find yelling out a tune like 'When the Saints go Marching in' or the national anthem really throws things off...and purposefully sing in the screechiest voice possible.) [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] I hope my advice doesn't get me into trouble, or anyone else if they decide to take it...
