Jewels @Tetchie (2932) • Australia 21 May 08

augustine87 I think they are annoying, if they are not utilized in the right context. Like in your case. I mean, the machines are doing their jobs but the people aren't. It's blatantly bad customer service.

If you want to dye your hair, what color will you choose?

youless @youless (113892) • Guangzhou, China 26 Sep 07

I have never dyed my hair. But if one day I have to dye it, perhaps I will dye the color as well as the deep purple grapes. I think it is not very big difference from my original hair color and it is suitable for Asian people.

augustine87 I don't think this makes sense at all. Sometimes, this people go overboard. Rather than saving 40 billion chickens, etc., isn't it more humane to save millions of people who are starving? send poor kids to school? use the money to develop a vaccine against...
