http://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/the-shocking-pain-of-american-men/ar-AAiUtNC?li=BBnb7Kz Why are so many American men between the ages of 25 and 54 "out of the labor force"? How does this coincide with physical pain and the use of pain killers(narcotics, overthecounters and NSAIDS)?

During the most recent recession, manufacturing/construction took a heavy hit. This field is primarily men of this age range (note that feminists didn't react to this gender crisis). While there are now other jobs opening up, many require new skill sets. Many of those men were left behind.
As for the painkiller link, this is the first connection I read. Perhaps after so many years of hard labor, the wear and tear caught up with them. It is too easy to be hooked on opioids.

If you got offered a reset button for your life, would you take it? Give up all you've seen and done and learned-- successes and failures-- to chance getting a better life in the next toss of the dice?

I'd like to think I'm smart enough to make good choices. There is too much risk I could end up homeless, addicted to something, or have 2 ex wives and 8 kids. I'll have to pass on the reset.

Do you ever feel scared to travel internationally with all of the current events in the world? BQ: Would you travel afar if given a chance?

ThomasGWS’s Profile PhotoThomas
Not scared. I'm more likely to be hurt in a traffic collision than a terror incident. BQ: I'm waiting in the airport now on my first segment to Amsterdam (for work.)

Would you like to have met your parents before they became parents? Do you think there might have been a side you never saw? Were they always fine specimens, or did it take being your parent to have that effect?

I'd prefer just to hear their stories. What if they behaved like me? Eeeew!

Is it true that a man can't switch on and off into dominant/aggressive/passive roles like women? Ex. If he is a sweet, nice guy in general, & in a society that teaches *how to treat a woman*, he won't be able to switch into aggressive guy in bed? Its either Mr sweet or Mr. dominant ?

How can a woman flick the switch so easily? She can be a big leader and decision maker at work then come home to be submissive awaiting for him to "take charge." At least we men are consistent in our dominant or submissive nature.

If you use Facebook or other social media, what do you do when you see a friend or family member post something that you know isn't true-- political propaganda or hoaxes, for example? Do you correct them or just let it be?

I used to post a link to snopes on a hoax. I stopped doing that. There is still the rare political response I'll do (to point out liberal "logic")

If your words were broadcasted to the entire world for thirty seconds, what would you say?

I'd tell them that not only have I hacked their audio, I've hacked their financial accounts and will take 10% of their balance. It will freak people. If I tried to impart wisdom, nobody would give a sh*t about it anyway. Better to pull a prank instead

What did you think of Nudge? Will it change how you make decisions in the future?

It was interesting pointing out that making small nudges can greatly affect the outcome (without limiting choices). The fancy term used is choice architecture. It is difficult to nudge oneself since the individual knows what she is trying to do. I nudged myself before this book in regard to chips. Instead of taking the whole bag to eat, I pour out a serving in a bowl. To eat more chips, I have to make an effort to go to the kitchen. My choice to eat more is still there, but I have to do more to eat them.

No I didn't nor do I believe it. It is an internet hoax

What was the last thing you got for free?

What is actually free? We have to pay for it indirectly. On Dec 24, 2015, my breakfast was comped by the cafe manager. Considering it was a regular breakfast for me, I had "paid" for it with many meals before that.

So I know a lot of you have been depressed before. How does your depression work? Have you had recurrent, heavy bouts of it, & then happiness? Are you generally depressive? Other?

TheDeathOfLiz’s Profile PhotoBean
No depression but some mild anxiety/stress. It was due to life altering conditions. A few months of meds and adapting to the new situation "fixed" the anxiety.

Were you interested in dinosaurs as a litte person? There's a chap lying down by a dinosaur's footprint here. That would be amazing, wouldn't it? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2016/10/04/worlds-largest-dinosaur-footprint-discovered-in-mongolias-gobi-d/?ref=yf

Of course I liked dinosaurs. Don't all little kids like them? I used to like a show called Land of the Lost where the characters are stuck in a land of dinosaurs

Um, your company being intact should be the least of your concerns. Your car has the steering wheel on the wrong side...and you're a woman. Sorry, someone had to point that out.
