Who else feels overworked

Who else feels overworked?
We live in a society that collectively feels like it's at the breaking point- too much personal debt, too many hours at work, not enough time to stop and truly rest. So why is it we are in this state of affairs? Is there any way to escape, outside of moving to Mongolia to herd cattle?

Me. Going to bed at 5am and waking up at 11am. I'm overworked!
3 :
I feel overworked. Maybe because we live in a materialistic world nowadays and our lives are run by our desire to attain them be it money, a house, vacations, etc.. The only way to escape is to probably stop and re-evaluate everything. Who am I kidding? I don't have a worthy suggestion except for being content with what you have but then others would beg to differ as personal goals vary. I'm stumped so I will just reiterate what I said earlier, I feel overworked in all aspects.

Why do Mongolian Nomads have almost no Body Odor

Why do Mongolian Nomads have almost no Body Odor?
I spent three consecutive years in Mongolia and discovered that most Mongolians, living as nomads can go for many days, even weeks without a full bath or shower and not give off any body odor. This was not restricted to the very cold winter months, but also in hot summer months when a very hot day can reach +34C. The Chinese and Russians living across the border enjoy no such luck and like all 'normal folk', need to bath or shower frequently. Do not misunderstand me. Most Mongolians are very clean and bathe regularly, especially where they have become city dwellers, but even there, they have a extraordinary capacity to smell perfectly clean and fresh if they bath or shower only once a week.

American Indians also have this tendency. Amazin', ain't it? So, uh, did you forget the question? .
2 :
It may be the diet since they don't traditionally eat very spicy food as you probably know. Although, if you eat the local food, you also become "immune" to the body odor around you as your body probably smells the same. I noticed that when I ate older mutton there that the mutton smell came through in my sweat. I never noticed it until I got back home to the US, then I could tell that I smelled somewhat different. But i think it has to do mainly with the diet. They also drink a lot of tea which may have something to do with it since teas has anti oxidants and maybe that helps reduce body odor.

m I more of a city or country person? Explain

m I more of a city or country person? Explain?
(I know I've asked this, I just want more answers) I live in rural Kentucky. I'm in college and live w/ my parents in my hometown and just can't afford to move now. My neighbors are mostly rednecks. I've lived in two cities, Louisville and Cincinnati, only to come back to "Hicksville" by fate. As for me, I... 1. have a little of the annoying KY accent...only a little! 2. don't drive slow on the road, ever. 'Nuff said... 3. love art museums sometimes 4. know all the good nightclubs, ethnic restaurants, parks, and "date places" in Louisville. 5. hate tractor pulls and country music 6. am annoyed when people in a small town whine about their traffic; I'm used to backups. 7. enjoy getting to know girls from Atlanta to California, Texas to Fiji, India to Latvia. 8. enjoy live music--jazz, rock, piano, dance, etc. 9. went to a party this weekend in Louisville where there were people from India, Bangladesh, Mongolia, Turkey, & Fiji. 10. am moving to TX soon, THANK GOD! It's hard to be a "city" person in Kentucky unless you live in Louisville or the Cincinnati suburbs. Also, the TX cities I'm considering are Ft. Worth, San Antonio, and Houston.

sounds like country to me

check your neck
3 :
i think that what defines a city person or a country person is just what they prefer. therefore, you seem like a city person.
4 :
why does it matter? just enjoy where you are, living in a big city is not all that cracked up anyway you have to deal with drug dealers shootings homeless crazy people loud neighbors etc. the list goes on.
5 :
I'm like this too, but I like countrysides better than cities... It means that you're open-minded, that's all
6 :
yeah, i dont think you're country at all.... you should see where i live and then you'll think country. i live in a tiny rural town south of houston... you seem like you would like houston though, its a pretty good town, tons of stuff to do.
7 :
Ya know only you know the answer to this question. Move to the city already and stop complaining! I love the country , I live in a hick town . BTW , what is wrong with rednecks?I would way rather hang with rednecks than phony-a** yuppies.Dont judge people on their lifestyle , judge them by their heart.
8 :
You are a city minded person.

Thanks for the info. I wonder how many more times we'll see that question tonight.
2 :
one-thanks for the info.
3 :
Thanks, here's hoping it will stop yahoo being flooded with that same question over and over again for various parts of the world, particularly USA (well I guess it makes a change from 2012 questions lol.) Well to make sure we remain on topic the number of licks is a matter of relative motion, gravity, and how much you like them which influences the velocity :-)
4 :
hahaha tootsi pop.... thanks for the link
5 :
Whether the tongue is licking the tootsie pop or the tootsie pop is licking the tongue is completely relative. The amount of licks will very based on the pressure, force, and current environmental surroundings. Thanks for clearing this up for people, yahoo answers is being flooded with the same question, and it looks like it is starting to die down now, so thanks! I was going to do this, but thanks for saving me the five points! :)
