  • csiunatc, on 06/09/2008, -0/+3Its so simple, and so hard at the same time. But the right mindset is the foundation for happiness, you can be happy or miserable regardless of external factors, by actively making the choice to be.
  • Qong, on 06/09/2008, -0/+2That was a terrible experiment! Hopefully you do apologize to her the next time you see her haha.

    It was interesting though, I think that it depends on the personality of the person being talked to more than anything else though. If they tend to get depressed, I'm sure that being told that they look terrible will have a negative affect; but if they are positive people, or a New Yorker haha, they would probably respond with something not so nice and continue on their business.
