The English noun people (singular "person") refers to a plurality of human beings. It has two usages:
Because the word people often refers to abstract and general types of groups, the word persons is sometimes used in place of people, especially when it would be ambiguous with its collective sense (e.g. missing persons instead of people). It can collectively refer to all humans or it can be used to identify a certain ethnic or religious group. For example, "people of color" is a phrase used in North America to describe non-whites.

I heard that people generally assume that people who are "obviously attractive" have bland personalities. This of course is before people actually get to know them. Do you feel this way? Why or why not? I'll answer, too (for once). I will say that when I see people who I believe society considers "obviously attractive" my first assumption is that they're more outgoing and extroverted, which may or may not be a good thing depending on my mood.

They tend to be more self-centered than most, and their values are different from mine. Yeah they can be charismatic and social, but it still says nothing about their true personality. Although, I try to veer from making such judgments before knowing the person.

It seems like they target people who think they are different from other people. From what I know of Scientology, it uses tactics designed to exploit people who think they have some kind of hidden ability inside themselves. JW s and the Mormons have made dogma designed to appeal to people who think they are holier, more pious and more virtuous than other people, right? What do you think? Asked by Desiree - Tue May 18 18:28:30 2010 - - 17 Answers - 0 Comments A. Wrong. Predatory cult? Put up or shut up, my dear. The people whose lives are blessed by Jesus within The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints do not hate you. If anything, we love you and pity you for the distress we seem to be causing you, however inadvertently. I think you should definitely get professional help for your eschatohierophobia. You'll be much happier, and you might even become a Christian. "By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another." "A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another."

Q. I am curious about how often people usually keep their carpeting in their house. I know some people keep their carpet until it has a few stains and some people keep their carpet until it has spots all over, 'traffic lines', etc. How long do people usually keep their carpet before they replace it? How many years would you figure? Asked by q_and_a000 - Sun Feb 4 17:26:29 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. It is 5 to 7 years for cheep carpet and 10 to 20 for quality carpet. however if you can afford the quality carpet your probably changing it anytime you want.
