Would hearing a swear word twice in a song during a spinning class offend you?

I am dying to play “Beautiful People” by Marilyn Manson for the final climb of my spinning class I am teaching tonight. Only problem… after the chorus he says “Mother-F****” twice in the song. Would that bother you if you were taking the class? A clean version does not exist. It is a pretty young demographic that takes my class. Thanks!
I should probably add that all the other instructors at the studio play heavy metal all the time. I tend to play softer house music, and when I do happen to throw in a metal song my spinners love it. I asked the owner of the studio, his words were “No one is going to care, go for it.”
Alright, well it appears that even if 9 out of 10 people in the class will like it, only takes 1 to complain. I’ve seen it suggested by spinners on forums on other websites, but they must be the minority.

And I would not lose my job, I do this part-time at my fiance’s studio, lol.

(objectionable content) I’d like a crit of this please… thanks. ?

Before Sleep

My brother explains
as we lie awaiting sleep
how you take a Girl.

2.Big Bro.
Try to understand
what you’re taught tonight:
Girl drugged and studiedly raped.

Thanks to all critters… was wondering if you’ve got any ideas of a way to reformulate it. Initially I was trying to write a single haiku. Doesn’t seem to do the trick.

Or do you think it’s not enough as it is? Should I flesh this out? I know it doesn’t necessarily suggest resolution as it is, but part of the reason is that there is no real resolution once this kind of thing is stuck in you, only suppression/sublimation(out of fashion now). Do you think I should still attempt a longer arc here?

I’m not sure about the title as well. Was thinking about pills you take before sleep.
I promise to give a crit to every one who answers with true crits.
Not that I disagree with the first answerer.
The crit may be collected whenever. Just email me when you’ve got a poem up.
Todd, thanks a lot for the help. I got some ideas from your suggestions:

I do like this idea. I see that “studiedly” may be awkward. Might change it to carefully, but that doesn’t feel right either. I can see how “drugged and studiedly raped” might be a bit bald, but that was my initial idea: for that part to be a different register from the rest of his words. I’ll think about it, though. The line may be a bit too obvious, but it’s tough to come up with anything else that does the same things.
Any other potential critters might also considering how you like this:

as compared with the initial poem, minus “Big Bro.” And also whether you think I should just drop the numbers.

As I’ve said, I’ll reciprocate. Butter fool also gets a crit.

How much do you give a babysitter?

Good evening,

My husband was away whilst I was teaching tonight and my neighbour’s son came to look after my two children, one of which went to bed 1/2 hour later.
My neighbour’s son is 14 (I think) but I was in the house. How much do you pay a babysitter? He was here 1 hour.

Thanks for your help.
Eden Elle: I do think 14 is a bit young which is why I precised that I was in the house (I teach from home).
Why are you all talking in $, isn’t this yahoo uk?

Tonight on the Glenn Beck Program: Is the White House attacking Fox to force us into competitive cup stacking?

We all started out playing ball, but he thinks Fox isn’t “playing nice”, so he just took his ball home. And now he expects us to start competitive cup stacking or something like that. Well, I for one don’t want to stack cups; I think it’s ridiculous. I teach my children, that cup stacking is for losers. So who the hell is Obama to tell me what to do with my cups or how to raise my children? He can keep his damn cups.

Should I teach my husband a lesson by sleeping in a hotel tonight?

Should I stay at a hotel tonight?
I have been married for 4 months.
My husband goes out at least 5 nights per week. I am fine with happy hour with co-workers ,an occasionally men’s night or football with the fellas. However this is crazy. I did not know he went out this much before we were married. Also his sister is a single mom who blames everyone else for her problems except herself. She has two boys. I often babysit for her, but only one boy at a time because they are terrors when they are together.
She asked my husband can she drop the boys off he told her yes. He never asked me I saw it in his phone (on Saturday) , then he said the boys are coming over on Sunday from 6:30-10:30. I told him I did not want to babysit on a Sunday night. I like to go to bed around 9:30 pm so I can be at the gym at 5:00 am. I had plans to install shelf’s ,decorateour bedroom and was not in the mood to babysit. His sister takes advantage she does not feed the kids does not pick them up on time ect… and it is a work night for me. He shut me down.
When she dropped the boys off they were misbehaving . They I found out I had to cook dinner for them. When my husband came home from work at 7:30 he separated them so “I could have peace” as he said then went out for the night. I did not finish my house project because the kids kept interrupting me.
At 9:00pm I texted my husband what was happening with the kids because I was ready for bed he replied LOL. At 10:30 he texted me to put the kids to bed. I texted no.
I could not sleep because I did not know where my husband was. So I texted him I was tired of this and I will be moving out today. My husband did not come home until 2:00am . This morning I packed a suit case and went to work my plan is to stay at a hotel as I do not have family or trust worthy friends in the area. I think my husband looked out the window and saw me putting my suitcase in my trunk. Because he started texting that everything was a big misunderstanding and he hears some weird noise when I was leaving what was the noise. ( my suitcase wheels).
I do not know what to do I am at my wits end I have prayed and prayed it has only been 4 months and I hate my marriage. Should I stay at a hotel tonight and even tomorrow so my husband understands I am serious.
I feel as though if I say no to watching the boys in the future he would not care anyway.
I wish I had a sister and all my good friends live 3 hours away.

I have spoken to him repeatedly about going out . What should I do? I get off of work at 5:00pm.
we are married
I have tried to talk to him he says he understand me , but nothing changes.
I thought by stayingin a hotel he will understand that i am not stuck with him.
@ mike B. I do not go out except church . I try to be home so I can cook his dinner. I have made plans to go out after work this Friday.

So i want my lip pierced and i know i can do it at home. my sister said the whole just looks like a scar from a pimple. i can use makeup to cover it. and i dont want it to get infected. so i can keep the ring on all night and put it in at school. and i really wanna pierce my lip. and my parents are really strict about that. any tips on how to do it and do it safe and secretive? thanks. <3

How to convince parents to allow me to pierce my lip?

My dad said that if I participate in three interscholastic sports this school year, he would consider allowing me to get a lip piercing. His answer right now is no, because he thinks that unconventional piercings “send the wrong message.” How can I convince him otherwise? I’m having a hard time understand his point of view, so I don’t even really know what kind of message he thinks would be projected.

Thanks so much!!!

any help from people with body piercings, or who are experienced in that area?

I’ve recently (yesterday) had my tongue pierced, the pain is excruciating lol, it didnt hurt when I had it done but afterwards for the rest of the day and today its really painful, I cannot eat anything because of it and havent for 2 days now, any ideas because I’m starving and living off ice cream how long is it likely to hurt for and how long roughly would it take until it heals. Also I’m looking at new jewellery for it and was wondering, would anyone happen to know what size bar you start off with like 16 millimeters or whatever “gauge” it is (whatever that means). Im having a downsize in two weeks and would also like to know what size it will be put down to aswell. Thanks a bunch

why do girls get those ugly tattoos or piercings.?

Why do you girls ruin your real beauty with nasty tattoos and body piercings? Are you that starved for attention,or do you do it cause every one else is doing it? Do you really thing it looks good? Girls,,,,,it makes you look like an idiot,but I guess you will do anything for attention though-how sad it is that you think you have to do this cause it makes you look better! people laugh at you behind your back ya know?

do tongue piercings hurt? And how bad do they swell?

do tongue piercings hurt? im getting mine done tomorrow and everyone says it swells really bad i mean i love body piercings i have both my ears pierced and gauged to a 5/8 an eyebrow ring a labre and a jocobs latter. But how bad is the swelling?

how long do you have to wait before you can take out, & put back in your nipple piercings.even if its for 2hr?

I am a lifeguard at a local pool & my manager is uncomfortable with body piercings.How long would I have to wait to take out the piercings? would it be safe to take them out for 2 hours or so, then put them back in? or would the hole close in already? would it be safe to have them pierced for a week & then do this? Please help

How do ear-bud headphones work with a tragus piercing?

I was thinking about getting it done, but I religiously listen to my Zune which has those ear-bud headphones. I was just curious as to how those two work together. Like would the piercing get in the way?
And I know this isn’t about tattoos, but there isn’t a section that I can see for body piercings. I figures tattoos and body piercings go hand in hand.

Can someone teach me how to trade stocks and options? Basically a mentor willing to teach?

Is there someone out there who can teach me to trade in commodities, equities, global markets etc?

I am seeking a career in IB and also interested in trading for myself. I attended a training session organised by Benedix(www.benedix.co.uk) where the training itself was delivered by Simon Dixon (you can look him up). The information given was a lot to assimilate for a one day training. I believe I need a 1-2-1 mentoring by someone who really knows what he/she is doing. I can’t afford to pay for this opportunity but I am willing to work for free and do whatever grunt work may be required. The details of this arrangement can be worked out if you do decide to take me on. If not you then maybe you know someone who may be interested or someone who knows someone (ad infinitum a la six degrees of separation style). I’ll be very grateful if given this opportunity.

Which of the free finance websites has the best paper trading set up?

I need a website that are accessible to others so that I can teach them trading techniques.

Do you know a site that teaches how to trade mini-stocks?

Trying to get into the stock market trading thing and I want to start very small in a mini stock market.
So if you know a site that teaches me while I trade mini stocks,
I would appreciate it.
Thanks in advance

When is the right time to invest in the stock market?

I know what the stock market is and that you must contact a broker. Would it be possible to have individual and direct involvement? How? Do any of you know a website that can teach “trading” and “stock-no-how”? Are the profits even worth investing in the stock market?

will percocets help when you first get your tongue piercings?

i have had my tongue pierced before, but took it out about a year ago… and now i wanna pierce it again. i already know how to take care of it and whatnot, i was wondering if percocets [[Oxycodone]] would help the swelling or anything?? i know ibuprofen helps… but just curious if anything else would help… :]

Your Tongue Piercings?

What was your experience getting it done?

How long did it take to heal?

What do you use it for now?

Do tongue piercings really ruin your teeth?

I really want to get my tongue pierced and even have the money for it but my mom said she doesn’t want me to because she paid 4,000 for my braces (two sets) and doesn’t want me to ruin my ‘perfect’ teeth.. i’ve been doing some research and people have been saying that after a few weeks with having it pierced with a metal barbell, change it to a plastic and there’s no way for damage. When you bite your tongue it will crack the plastic/acrylic barbell, instead of the metal cracking your teeth. Also.. She thinks it will shift my teeth and chip them. I’ve never been addicted to anything like that or messing with the 7 ear piercing and nose piercing i have now so i don’t even know how that’s possible to shift your teeth? i’m 16 and very responsible and know i can take care of it. I got my nose pierced at 13 and have no problems whatsoever.

If she doesn’t say yes to that. what can i do to try to atleast let her consider it more. what i was thinking was taking her to the piercing parlor (i have one in mind!) and have her talk to the piercer there. Then if things go good from there, use my money to get it pierced, and after a week if she doesnt like the way it looks i will take it out.. any other ideas?

Please give me your opinion.. especially if you’ve ever had your tongue pierced. dont bother telling me its trashy and whatnot, it depends on how you use it and im definitely not like that. So please help me convince my mom

How much do tongue piercings affect your overall oral life, particularly with your sense of taste?

I am just curious because I am debating one but it seems like it would be rather annoying to eat with it. I mean I had always thought the lip piercing would be annoying until I got one, so now I am wondering if the same would happen if I got a tongue piercing.

What’s your opinion on tongue piercings?

So I was thinking about getting my tongue pierced….just wanted to know more about it, like how much does it cost, how long is your tongue swollen, how badly does it hurt, etc….

thanks!!!

a question of soul?

A question of soul

Dose the internal soul govern the self? Or is it independent of the self, lurking in the back ground like the neutral colours of a room, visible but yet unnoticed. The furnishings being the self, the ego, and superego, Is the self in control of its environment, we decide what happens in our life we take in various stimuli from our environment, our brain processes this information and we act accordingly, that is to say that we act in a way that we hold to be the truth. Surly the individual has the final say. A bit like a game of chess, each move we make takes us to another set of variables with different out comes, ultimately with different endings. Sometimes we loose, sometimes we win, but our decisions are always made with in the confines of that chess board. Like life our decisions are always made with in the confines of societal parameters, which is not to be confused with the values of a society for we are all guilty of making decisions that would not conform to societal values and more importantly would not conform to our own health and well being.
Or is it the internal soul that has the ultimate control the last word? Nudging us this direction or that direction, so that we eventually arrive on the path we were meant to be on? Or is this a cop out to justify the questionable decisions that we may have maid in our life? True we did gain experiences, we did learn how to or not to behave. But that dose not help the people we may have hurt on the road to where we are now.

Plato describes the soul, or the inner self if you will, the internal soul as a chariot having three parts, a charioteer who has been dubbed reason and two horses one of which is spirit and the other is appetite to pull this chariot, now the charioteer/reason guides these glorious beasts, spirit and appetite. Well he is supposed to! But this is not always the case, as we shall see. He uses this analogy to describe the internal conflict that we as individuals go through from time to time in our life. We have spirit “the will to achieve” a fine animal mainly good and yields to the charioteer’s commands. The other is bad “the mate of insolence and pride” temptation if you will! And will hardly yield to the charioteer’s commands. It is up to reason “the charioteer” to guide these beasts. For me, when resin the charioteer guides these horses there unstoppable, clear of vision, unwavering to temptation, reaching goals before we could only have dreamt off. But now anything is possible we will cross our own finishing lines in magnificent style. But when he is not in control. We have Appetite “desire” and the mental picture I get of this horse; well he’s a big bastared! Standing twenty hands high, black as night with big hazel piercing eyes. Eyelashes like spikes, his teeth fiercely biting down on the bit, foaming at the mouth with rage. His nostrils flared, He has a look that can cut through you as if you were glass and is a mussel bound animal. Much stronger than his counterpart “spirit” And he will have his way! When this animal gets his own way let me tell you, he brings spirit and reason along for the ride and when this happens “hold on to your arse! Or more appropriately hold on to your horses “I wonder if this is where that saying originated from” You’re going on a whirlwind fast paced journey, and to what end? “Well” appetite will reveal all to reason when he gets there. For he dose not know where he will end up, nor dose he care where he will end up, all that he knows is; he must run in that direction. But where is the commonality sure we can all go through the same hardships at different stages in life but where is the link between all souls? Is this link the road upon which all chariots travel? Are we to believe that our id ego super ego, or if you will reason appetite and spirit, although they are part of us: apart of the decision making process the things people don’t see and sometimes what we don’t see in our self. But are they the complete make up of us, or our parent’s brothers, sisters, friends, or strangers the people we meet casually through life. Are we to believe we are talking to there soul? And all this if you believe that you have a soul and that this soul can live for ever. For me after seeing a corpse void of life I believed! I believed that the essence of this person was not their, and that it was for me that this essence could only be a form of energy, the life force of an individual. And since energy can not be destroyed it must be eternal. If you believe that energy is eternal and can’t be destroyed. That this energy is ones eternal soul. It must mean that every animal and mammal has the same energy and must have a soul.

For one to look at our internal soul one must look at Humanity and what it is. What defines us as human beings? Is it kindness and compassion, as dictionaries would lead us to believe as the separating factor? (A little too self righteous and glorifying for my liking.) What is it that we have that separates us from our animal neighbours? For this I think we must look at humanity and its virtues because as it is our virtues that make us human. And we must consider our non virtuous side because this also makes us human. When looking at this we can not neglect the point that the soul of both man and animal may be form of energy! And ask the question; is their a separating factor. Are our souls different?
Dose, when ones soul leave the body as a man retain the information gained while in ones body. Dose a dog remain a dog?

As I look at the list below again for the umpteen time. I can’t help and feel that every species on this planet shows one or two virtues and one or two non virtues. Animals have the ability to love to be untrusting, to show courage to cower. In fact some animals show fidelity, Is it possible that all that separates us from the animal kingdom is the fact that we have more virtues than any other species be they animal or mammal on this planet? That as we evolve we gain more of these attributes.

Virtues Non virtues
Love Hate
GentlenessRough
Good faithUntrusting
Generosity Mean
Tolerance Impatience
CourageCoward
Prudence Imprudent
PolitenessRude
Fidelity Unfaithful
Justice Unjust
MercyUnmerciful
Purity Impure
HumourHumourless
Compassion Hate
Gratitude Ungrateful

Highlighted above are some virtues that animals don’t have and for me their socalised virtues, “learned behaviour”; something that is thought in a society. If you noticed that I did not high light justice that’s because once upon a time I was sitting in, one cold rainy dreary night flicking through the telly as you do and came across this wild life program. And would you believe it, a snake ate a leper cub now what has that got to do with justice I here you ask. Well the snake regurgitated the cub hoping the leper would not continue the chase and fled to this hole on a rock face and the mother leper was sitting over the hole waiting to get the snake for a long period of time knowing its cub was dead. So the jury is now out on weather the leper was looking for justice or not. Which brings in to question the other word hate? Did the leper hate the snake?
So out of thirty virtues there are six virtues that we have that animals don’t have.

Lades only… hlep me!?

So lets say you see a guy who looks like a total dork that is very goodie goode. But then you learn he has a tattoo of a cross on his left chest (for his grandma), an eyebrow piercing and two nipple piercings. He listenes to hardcore metal (and stuff like Marilyn Manson), but you’d NEVER know with how he acts…,

First off, what would you think of this guy. Secondly, How can this guy get rid of some of the ambiguity of him being a pushover. How can he get people to see him as a bad boy for good?
