You two seem to love the speculation-based-on-imagination game! This kid is one year old! It's very likely he can't even walk yet. A freezer would be -18 degrees Celsius (-2 degrees Fahrenheit). If you sat in such a freezer for a while, frostbite wouldn't be too far…

How do you know "...the woman had some sense when she conceived"? That is pure speculation. Well, I speculate that she couldn't afford to have an abortion so she delivered the baby when he was ready to be born. Babies don't all start breathing by themselves when born and,…

Maybe the father kicked her out of his place in December last year when she found out she was pregnant. Or maybe she was raped by another person living in the park. So many maybes makes it hard to pass judgement on her yet as many like to do. It…

About 100 years ago it would have been the norm in numerous countries. These days, I guess some countries in the Middle East and Africa with monarchs would have similar laws.

It does seem like a microscopic amount. I mean 0.008 of 1 ounce is tiny but 0.008 of 1 gram? Come on, that's infinitesimally small. Granted, maybe she was a user but you can only get busted with what the police find and if that's all they found, I think…

love how you use the plus sign to try to explain Eurasian (European plus Asian) etc.!

1 and 1 = 2 or

1/2 and 1/2 = 1?

i.e. half European plus half Asian = Eurasian?

Or are the percentages different perhaps? Couldn't be 60/40 could it?

No?

50/50 maybe?…

I reckon "mixed" sounds even worse! It definitely sounds like it describes some doggies. "Mixed" has a kind of "mixed up" feel to it... e.g. the results got mixed. It almost implies a mistake of some sort!

Can you name a country that doesn't think it is better than…

Wow, this topic always brings out everyone! Someone mentioned a few weeks ago on a similar topic that we are actually all "half", aren't we? Half Mum and half Dad. No matter where they came from. My daughter is officially "haafu" but hearing the term doesn't really bother me. I…
