Awesome. I just read your "being a parent" post and it literally broke my heart. Your writing really struck a cord with me.

in Not for the Numbers, but for the Game: Friending on Social Networks on JosephHsu.com
"Just because they use the word “friends” in the app, does not mean your network has to consist of friends only." I agree. These applications use the term "friend" VERY loosely.

I believe it's definitely a better choice than using 'connect', 'add to network', or 'follow' in a social network because these seem just... so dry and fits in the context.
For simplicity sake, it's a lot easier to have such a general word than several words and have people digress from the social network's purpose. Like in programming, they say "convention over configuration"( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convention_over_Co... ) to keep things consistent and simple, but still flexible (flexible with our interpretation of the term "friends").

in Are People Born Evil? Or Made That Way? on DCFemella: Well Behaved Women Rarely Make History
I believe the vast majority of people are kind (even though we all have an evil side too). But some are indeed born evil, or with evil tendencies. Combine that with a rough childhood and you have your typical criminal.
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that science shows criminals' brains are different.

You know...You are right! There was a study done about how criminals' brains are mapped differently.
I just googled, and this what I found:

in Why Are Some Old Women So Bitter and Catty Towards Younger Ones? on DCFemella: Well Behaved Women Rarely Make History
Not everyone is like that. I'm old (37) and not bitter. :)
I think it depends on whether you're happy or not.
BTW, while older men may not be "catty" towards younger men, I think there's definitely jealousy and a fear of being pushed aside and replaced. So it's not just women.

That is why I said some because I don't think all women do this.
Maybe with older men it comes in the form of a mid-life crisis?
