0 Guest Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Einstein once said: "Intelligence is a universal constant, but the world's population is growing" ... do the math yourselves ) Haha! Kinda like the concept of inflation. That reminds me of a relevant comment I heard from someone (quote to quote) bullying me. "If we're in, like, a reduction (I'm assuming that's a recession), why don't we, like, make millions of money, and then we, like, buy everything. Then you could, like, go, and shut the **** up about your issues." I got more than even with her for that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Aaryan Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) I think they say that because they are too shy to tell the woman that she's Gorgeous!!! I don't physically know you, peace, but I totally agree. To me, intelligence goes hand in hand with beauty. But that just may be because of Alice my girlfriend Edited May 25, 2011 by Aaryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
