POPSPay Attention A very underrated and neglected thing to do. I really find that most people don't pay much attention to things most of the time. For whatever reason, i tend to be someone who pays very close attention to everything. I guess if you think about it, clipmarks is kind of about paying attention to what you're reading and capturing the finer points that others may overlook (a stretch?) I've noticed that my daughter pays incredible attention to her surroundings and i think it's had an incredible impact on her ability to learn to speak.

POPSOn non-conformity Too true! People are trapped mentally by the expectations of others. By taking into consideration their norms and expectations, and purposefully setting yoruself against them, they have power over you. Instead of fulfilling your intention to be free of their influence, you are still trapped by their influence!

POPSHomosexuals are overrepresented in child sex offenses You'll often hear that "homosexuals are no more likely to pedophilia than heterosexuals". This is patently untrue. Homosexuals may commit less crimes overall, but on a "per capita" basis, they are more likely to commit such crimes than heterosexuals. This is one of the reasons people and governments are hesitant to give children to homosexuals to rear, be it through surrogacy or adoption.

POPSDailyWTF: Very Slow Service It's not so astonishing to find something as klugish and ass backwards as this. What's humorous to me is how it all panned out.
