Words That Can Start A War (a hot Twitter topic)

If you ever watch the news, or even take a quick minute to people watch, you become aware of how much change has occurred in the way that people treat each other. In this day in age people will fly off the handle for something as simple as accidentally cutting them off on the freeway or staring in their direction for too long. This behavior usually results in a hostile remark, usually containing some profanity, starting a modern day #wordsthatcanstartawar.

What ever happened to being polite and respecting others, especially elders? Throughout history it seems the human hypothetical fuse has gotten shorter and shorter. The question at hand is, what words can start a war?

These days, pretty much any word in the Merriam-Webster's Dictionary could start a war of words. It makes you wonder what has changed to make people so angry with life? Maybe it's because life has become so fast paced. People have no time for themselves anymore. Life revolves around work, family,......and then back to work. People are living life completely stressed out, which could lead to a short fuse and flying off the handle at the slightest comment or look.

Our recommendation, take a time out once in awhile and do something you enjoy without thinking about all of life's stresses. It may help avoid the battles we encounter on an everyday basis.

URCONNEXX.com is Las Vegas based and provides avenues for locals to take that time out and enjoy life. View our website at www.URCONNEXX.com

Vegas Local Life

The city of sin is known for the wild and crazy, "strip" but for locals we prefer the non-traffic crowded streets, and less lines. Whether you are looking for a hole in the wall bar, or a trendy wine bar, there are amazing places off the strip. Happy Hour seems to be better around town except places in Hotels and Casino's! So what do Vegas locals want, crowds and overpriced drinks? Or do we desire low key, and familiar?

How do you say......

As URCONNEXX gets more well known in Las Vegas, we are finding out that people aren't quite sure how to pronounce our name. We've decided to help clear up the confusion and want to make sure everyone is talking about the same great website. URCONNEXX, pronounced "your connects", does exactly what the name says, helps Las Vegas locals get the connections they need to meet new people and attend great socializing events at some of the hottest venues in Las Vegas. Here are helpful links to make sure you're keeping up with us on Twitter and Myspace:

About URCONNEXX......

Right now URCONNEXX is still in the start up phase. We have been working hard to get our name known throughout Las Vegas by passing out flyers once a week in different areas of town for maximum exposure. The flyers have helped and definitely increased the amount of signers interacting on our forums.
We are also working on a new website to replace our current one. We hope to launch the new website by next week. It will be more appealing to the eye and have more information on it.
Our Upcoming Events calander is updated with multiple drink specials and happy hours for locals to enjoy every day of the week.
Recently we started getting everything in order to host our first Meet & Greet. We have a location in mind but we're trying to nail down the exact date and time. As soon as we know where and when we'll let you know!
