Q: Today at school something really sad-mean happened to a friend of mine and we were all talking and thinking about stuff and we were wondering....

Why are guys such jerks towards fat girls?

and why don't they liek to date chubby girls? how come they only like to date girls who are sticks with a drawn on face?

k thanx i rate 5's.

because the sa truth is, most guys are shallow. they only want girls who look perfect, they dont care what they'er like inside. i know, it really sucks, but when you find a guy who really likes you, he wont care about how you look (at least not too much) ;D

Q: I like 80's music; but I don't know the names of many of them. So far I've downloaded "In the air tonight" by Phil Collins. "Tainted Love", andTheres another song called "What is love?".. I Think. It goes "What is love? Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more".

THanks!!

Q: aah! so here is the deal!! i once read in a magazine about a girl who got sexually harassed by her teacher. and im like oh i feel so bad for that girl, but i never thought about it happening to me. well i hate to admit it.. but it did. this is what happened: i needed extra help in math so i told my teacher about it (lets call him mr. a) and hes like oh why dont you stay after class today i have no meetings and i was king of hesistating cause thursdays are busy for me. but he was like insisting and it was kind of awkward and i felt uncomfortable rejecting it so i did stay after school. when he told me to sit down next to him at a table, i did. and by the way the chairs were a little to close. the whole time he was helping me he always tryed to get good excuses to get close to me. not actually saying stuff, but like syaing "ok lets go over the steps .. *nudge close, nudge closer* then after we started talking and he asked me what my favorite classes werwe and i told him, and hes like "what do you think about the sex unit in health" and in my head im like "WHAT??"so i said awkwardly.. "um yes its good." so out of the blue.. hes like "ever wanted to have sex" and i said "i dontknow.." hes like "want to try it with me" i got creeped out at that i felt like crying.WHAT SHOULD I DO?? PLEASE HELP. i'm so confused, im afraid of going to school or even walking in the halls cause i might bump into hiM!!!!

harraser. thats what that teacher was tell parents or anyone you can trust. and be sure to tell the principal of the school. he'll be fired, it will keep it from happenning to anyone else.

Q: Is it underweight for a 5"2 13-year-old girl to be 87 lbs?

no, actually that's not abnormal. that basically describes me. And its perfectly healthy :]

Q: Im loading songs onto my iPod and I can't think of any songs that I like... do you know where I can find lists of songs? Either that, or can you tell me some songs that you like?
Thanks :)

on the home pageish thing of itunes, scroll down until you see a section that say 'just for you' and click it. there should be numerous songs showing that are based on songs you've already bought. If yo don't like those click 'see mre' in the corner :]

Q: How do you hook up the 100 dollar Kodak Easy share cameras to the computer to load them? I don't have a docker. I have one wire that you're supposed to hook up the Camera to the computer with, but where on the back of the computer do you hook it up too? I didn't read the directions because I want to take the easy way out.

Thank you :) - Adrianna, 15

Oh and I don't know if this helps but, I do have a memory card.

there should be a wire that came with the camera. Take the side of the wire that has three lines with points at the end and plug it into the back of your computer (where you should see a sign just like the one on the wire). Then take the other side of the wire, and plug it into your camera. On the left side there should be a little 'door' that can be opened that also has that sign on it. Flip it open and Plug the the other side of the wire into the smallest available hole. If you have not yet put in your memory card, do it before you plug in the camera to the computer. Push it down into the thin opening with the 'PNY' label facing down. Make sure your camera is turned off when you plug it in. Then, turn it anywhere on the dial besides 'off', or 'favorites' it should turn on the camera and make the sonnection to your computer. A box will appear to install the camera. Once installed, on your camera screen and computer screen it will say for example: Downloading 80 %. ONce it is up to 100 you can disconnect your camera. It will ask you to name the album and pick what photos sto be in it. Once selected, you can add affects to your photo and such..

if you have any problems just drop one in my box :]

Q: sorry, i have a limmeted time online, but how do you deleat songs off your ipod nano?just deatailed directoins will do, thank you!

go to your itunes. Right click on the song you don't want anymore, and hit 'clear'. This will get rid of the song. If you did this in purchased music it will still show up in your library, if yo dont want it in your library do the same thing. Then update your update by plugging it in, and it should be removed :]

Q: I'm getting a new camera but I'm not sure which one to get. Leave me with cameras that you know are good or recommend. =)

Kodak Easy Sharr :] Keyword would be EASY. It is very easy to work, and everything is self explanitory. There is only one thing needed to install. Its very compact and costs $180 (which may be a bit much), but it is very good. I reccomend it :]

Q: is there a way to learn how to rap?

rapping is natural. You can't really 'learn'. You're either born with a the wits to come up with that type of poetry, or you're not. But if you really want to learn, listen to rap. Count the beats, hear the rhymes, and listen to what it's about. And base your raps on it, but first, start off writing down your raps. Don't sing them until you have a fully developed rap. :]

Q: Okay,
latly i have noticed how..."normal" or "boring" my hair is. Its brown/dark red, completly natural, wavy and a little over medium lenghth. ITS BORING! i wanna spice it up a bit, you know, cut to the shoulders, die it, something! i am thinking straightening it and dieing it orange or brown. i dont know blond for that cut flirty look, orange for that "i need a boyfriend" look, brown for that Dark, deap look, black for that mysterious look or red for a kate windslit "titanic" look. What do you think? I wanta do something with it becaus its so "dull" i need advice. Please no sarcastic remarks like "wahsing it?" none of that please. i need advice, new year's coming up you know....oh yeah "Happy New Year!"

~hair

first thing i would reccomend is getting Pantene Pro V shampoo. It gets your hair very shiny/. I don't think that you should dye it, natural is the way to go. Side bangs are very cute. I would also reccomend layering and having it just below shoulders, and kind of curve in. To make sure it doesns't frizz-out blow dry it. I think that would look very pretty :]

Q: Hey guys! I have a Sims 2 for Play Station 2 and this is funny but How can you get a Sim Pregnant. My Sims Do the "WooHoo" ALOT. But she has never got pregnant. lol. Please Don't Be Rude! :) Ty

Well i'm not sure if Sims 2 for the computer and PS2 are the same, but for Sims 2 there are two options for woohoo. 1 = Woohoo, 2 = Try for baby. Get both sims in bed (click the relax option), Click try for baby. It may take a few times, but dont give up!! it WILL happen. And when they become pregnant some baby music will play, if you have the sound turned down you might not know that they're having the baby. The stomach of the girl won't appear larger until a day later in sims time.

Q: hi. does anyone know the order that the gossip Girls books go in? i want to buy some, but i want to start at the first one.

Q: How do you know if it's a pimple or not? Just because you haven't had it doesn't mean anything. She said it's a "weird lump" it could be ANYTHING, a boil, pimple, ANYTHING. She didn't explain it in color, shape, or size - so don't tell me that you know exactly what it is when you DON'T. Putting acne cream where it's not needed irritates the skin? Are you kidding me? You don't know what you're talking about. Just shut up now before you make yourself look even more stupid then what you are right now. Excuse me? I'm five years old because I'm concerned that I may get a lower rating because I know what I'm talking about? & Just because you're stupid and guessed about what she had telling her to go see a doctor and what not? Yeah, I'm really five years old. Learn to type correctly & spell right, and then consider yourself a little older sweetheart. What's your screename?

NAIMEE

I was anything BUT guessisng when i told her what to do. I HAVE HAD THAT BEFORE. I KNOW WHAT IT IS. I WENT TO GO SEE A DOCTOR. I TOLD HER TO GO SEE ONE TO GET MEDICINE TO HELP IT. and i am not giving out my sn on this site.

okay will you stop already? I really do know what i'm talking about, i have had that before and it's not acne. Gosh just because i say for one second that the all might naimee is wrong you spaz? get a life and STOP pipcking on me.

Q: 15/f
i have never had a boyfriend. Is that like pathetic?? I want everyone to be honest like if you think thats stupid then say it i wanna know your honest opinion i wont get mad at anyone...unless you go like wayy overboard.

5 for anything.

well its not PATHETIC, exactly. Well, ive made fun of my 15 year old sister for never having a boyfriend, but shes my sister, i have to do that =] It isnt honesstly that bad if you've been asked out but turned someone down. But in my opinion, i guess its kind of weird not to have a boyfriend by that age =/

Q: Thanks for making MY answer look pointless.

I know what I'm talking about, my mother's a dermatologist, so don't even start on saying, "oh putting cream down there is bad." I'm sorry that you don't know it's common for people to get acne down-below. But don't point negatively to my answer, especially when you obviously have no idea what you're talking about. It's not exactly in her vagina, it's on the skin, I don't know how a piece of skin around your vagina is any different then a piece of skin on your face. How old are you, like five?

NAIMEE

all i said that it wasnt acne, because ive had that before and it is most definately not acne, and i know its not inside, but putting acne cream where not needed gives it irritation. And no im not five, but you are for writing this immature little note.

Q: I have this really weird lump on the outside of my vagina. Like near my leg. I just noticed it like a few minutes ago and I have no clue how I got it or what it means. I have never engaged in sexual activity. I'm 14/f. Do you know what it is?

yeah, that happened to me too. I was scared but it was really nothing. Visit your doctor, its either a swolen limphnode or an ingrown hair. They'll give you madicing if its your limphnode, dont worry, this is very common. Oh and dont put any type of acne cream on it, that is kind of dangerous to put any cream down there, and its probably not acne so that would just be pointless.
